Enjoy Kel! x
CommentAuthor*KelBel*
I know I'm looking forward to bringing them home to try...don't wanna mingle in there too long as I find wedding fares are like a pack of lions hunting the brides to be! So will be picking up the box she has for me and doing a swift departure lol... I have everything booked apart from a band and I've never seen a band at a wedding fayre so not interested in sticking around x

I know I was so surprised plus means at least now we don't have to find songs for all those bits,just the music which I think is easier x

Excellent. You must be really happy :)
I've just ordered the bridesmaids a small pearl and diamanté clutch bag as part of their gift and they've said they'd actually prefer to have it instead of a bouquet, with maybe a wrist corsage... Do you all think that'll look okay? X

I have seen bridesmaids that have had a little bag instead so I think it would work.
Got my shoes!!!

Wow might have to give that a go!
I'm normally really organised Kelbel but for some reason not when it comes to the wedding! We've paid half off the cars though, we're paying half off our indoor marquee in a couple of weeks and have our deposit down on the jukebox. Plus have booked makeup trials, nails, eyebrows and make up on the day for me and my mum but not paid anything off that yet. Village hall is paid too so we're getting there slowly but surely! Finding my dress is my next priority!!! :-)
CommentAuthorBev
Sounds like you're doing well, Joey!
Have you thought about what style dress you want? X
CommentAuthorJoey35
Hi Bev, I've done nothing BUT think about it! From what I've tried on it seems I suit a sweetheart neckline, lace-up back, and quite fitted around the waist and hips, but not quite as much as 'mermaid 'style. Something a bit like Mori Lee 1866 (I don't know how to add pics) but I haven't tried that one on yet. I like the look of it though! I also like Mori Lee 1913 and 1915. Thinking of a chapel length veil to go with it too. There are only a couple of wedding dress shops in my town so need to find time (and someone to drive me!) to look further afield!
CommentAuthorBev
They sound lovely. I'm a Mori Lee bride too Joey! Mine is 5108 (there's a pic of it on this thread if you want a nose!) xx
CommentAuthorJoey35
Oooh that's stunning! Beautiful dress! X
CommentAuthorSonya

Thanks Sonya! Yeah they're the 3 highest contenders (so far!) although I don't think the 2nd and 3rd ones have lace-up backs...will have to try them all on and see!
CommentAuthorVelcro
They're gorgeous, all of them, I would want all three lol

CommentAuthorJoey35
This is the problem I'm having Velcro, 9/10 of the dresses I've tried on I love! They're all just so pretty and I can't make my mind up! After not trying any on for several months, and after buying more bits for the wedding, I've had time to think..and I definitely want something along these lines :-)
CommentAuthorSonya
I was worried I wouldn't find a dress cos I loved lots I tried on but was getting concerned none felt like 'the one'. Then when I found my dress I knew it was 'THE ONE'!
You'll know when you find it!!

CommentAuthorBev
Joey the dresses are STUNNING!
I agree with Sonya - when you find 'the one' you'll definitely know! X
CommentAuthorJoey35
I hope so! Need to find the one and get it ordered! :-)
Will ring some dress shops today and book some appointments! X
CommentAuthorBev
Let us know how you get on. The Mori Lee dresses are just stunning! X
CommentAuthorSonya
I kind a wish I could still go trying dresses on!
Became Mrs Mulholland on September 12th 2014!!!
CommentAuthorJoey35
Yes I'll let you know! I'm glad I've waited to choose one in a way as I would be tempted to keep trying them on otherwise!
CommentAuthorBev
Try as many dresses on as you can to get it out of your system haha! I can honestly say I haven't even looked at anoth dress since finding mine... That sounds really cheesy doesn't it?! Sorry! :)
The bridesmaids clutch bags arrived today... They're lovely! I'll upload a pic to my wall soon :) xx

I've just bought some yellow and white stripy paper straws and some east of India washi tape that say 'with love' and 'mr and mrs' which I'm gonna turn into little flags to wrap round the straws... Hoping to have jars to put the arrival drinks in and use these straws
Kinda like this:

We were told that if you preliminarily book your date at your venue,u need to make an appointment within a month from the 1yr mark otherwise u could lose ur slot because you've only paid a deposit...it doesn't matter when u give notice as long as the office that houses the registrar that's marrying you knows the date ur giving notice... So with me cos were getting married in a different district to where we give notice,I rang ours to get the appointment then I'm about to ring Scunthorpe to tell them the date were giving notice so they know I've made an appointment x
You can make an appointment between anytime from next week to 16 days before as long as you let the other office know, if the same office is doing your notice and service then they'll already know x
