    Everything is just going wrong.
    Broke my nail really badly and really worried will look terrible on wedding day ( my pinkie right next to my ring finger)
    Messaged my make up artist about payment and was told she had tried to get hold of me as she Recieved the deposit late she have away my date. And after looking through my texts she's right. But I only read the first but and did not see the bit about that.
    So now with 10 days to go I have no make up artist.
    I want to talk to my bm but feel like I've let her down.

    On top of that after checking the status of the order from v1sta for my programmes it started eta for delivery 29th the day after the wedding.

    And I'm having trouble pining down my fbil about making the favors.

    OK, take deep breaths and go for a walk... leave your phone and just go clear your head...

    Now that you're back from your walk here is the following:

    1. Book of face is a great resource for finding recommended local suppliers for makeup artists. If you have to pop into D£benh@ms make up counters and book an appointment to have it done there (I did this for a charity ball and it was perfect) and whats good is you buy the lippy they used on you and you have it for top ups later.

    2. Contact Vista print and explain your situation and ask if there is any way they can do a rush order. Remember... its not the end of the world if you don't have wedding programmes, no one will judge you.

    3. Get the OH to deal with the FBIL or the FMIL to light a fire under their butts but again, favours are not going to ruin your day if you don't have them.

    Lately after a few stresses I've been saying the same mantra in my head... "Bigger picture" and as long as you are married to the one you love. It's perfect.

    Hugs Hun I agree with Victoria, take a break and breath and clear your head, then right a list of what's most important to sort then work through it. With the make up artist defiantly ask on bookface or local salon as most do make up as well as hair and nails ect. And did u get your deposit back from the make up artist? As I would make sure on that. Why do you think you have let your bm down? Speak to vista they might say it says that but will come earlier as a few of my orders have done. And as for ur little finger I hope it's ok and not too painful but done worry about how it will look as the photographer will be focusing on your ring finger and it will just be forgotten about. I'd grab oh n go face to face with your fbil to find out what's happening and if he not answering get oh to take over the favours so they get done x

    Thank you ladies. I have now spoken to my bm and she was super awesome and had already managed to arrange someone else.

    Vista print have already dispatched so nothing they can do but they expect they will arrive before then as their postage is usually quite quick.

    I'm going to see my nail lady tomorrow morning, and she reckons it will be OK. And promises my nail won't look horrible. And it's stored hurting more so hoping it won't sting to much when she takes the acrylic off with acetone.

    Fbil had finally come back to me and he's sorting it phew.

    Just hoping the few things that are in the post come through.

    Programmes arrived.

    But my cousin and ' moh' supposedly messaged me to say her hubby is now not coming. But she's going to cover the cost of his meal as it's too late to cancel.

    And had a nice facial last night and wine so that made me feel better
