    Eeeeeek soooooo excited , its now 2015 so can actually say I'm getting married this year.. So we having a wedding weekender, woop woop From Friday to Monday ! ( we staying though Thurs-Tues ) I managed to find a wedding venue that's a large country house, sleeps 50, we can do what we want when we want , very much DIY , it has Hot tubs, indoor and outdoor pools , games room, and the bit that sold it for me is that I asked if we can have the ceremony in the 15 acres of woodland onsite and YES we can !! our ceremony we have written ourselves ,( well I have written it ) my good friend is going to conduct the ceremony , ( legal bit doing at local registry office at later date) Im not having bridesmaids, but I have bridal crew of 10 , 5 men and 5 women all will have a role to play . Wedding will be a festival laid back vibe, hoping to make it really magical and will have a bohemian style with lots of pink and green colours and quite a fairyland theme, fairy lights everywhere, toadstools, feathers, dreamcatchers, sparkly bits hanging from trees.e.t.c..with a big emphasis on fun ! have some fab games we have thought of and having a homemade photobooth... we have bell tent by the outdoor pool furnished as a chill out lounge... on the grounds is a big Marquee for the party. After ceremony we having canapes then a sit down champagne afternoon tea followed by speeches then Games , bouncy castle e.t.c then hog roast from 6pm with a Barn Dance Band.. I will be doing a crazy half hour music dj slot and my friend will take it in turns to be Dj .. eeeeekkkk writing it down like this is making feel soooo excited !! because we having a weekender though it does meam more things to organise and do, day before wedding me and the ladies have a pamper/pool party and men a Pool match and we all having dinner together, day after wedding we all going to nearby beach , BBQ or fish n chips for dinner followed by a hot tubs and games , relaxing evening, so have that to organise too.. ! but im hoping it will all fall into place and I wont be a headless chicken in the run up to it.. I have got some things sorted, the big things anyway.. and have lists of what to do what month..so hoping I will be ok.. I wasn't going to do one of these planning diaries but I have found myself doing it and think will be good to keep track like this and get some advice if need and then if have forgotten anything , someone else may point it out for m :) anyway, I not going to babble on anymore.. I do love to talk.. as I, sure you have guessed !! ha.. I will now list what I have done and Im sure it wont seem like much to some as I see some people getting married in 2016 have done double the amount of mine ! most of my bits will be the making of all the décor touches !! I think as long as anything that needs to be booked is done by March/April I will be grand..

    Yeah, I feel like I should set up a planning diary too-but sort of waiting to see if I get to power user status so I can add photo's.
    Might wait until I get to 6 months then it's like a 6 month countdown and I can use it to make sure I have everything organised and if I'm not a power user by then I probably won't be until after we get married lol.

    I'm in Doncaster, near Sheffield so quite far from you.


    I love hearing about weddings as well, it's great to get idea's and also just to see how people do things differently. We went to an amazing wedding last year, completely different to how we are doing it but everything was so beautiful.

    My bridesmaids live far away as well, I'm up here and one's in London, the other in Weymouth... :( so it's hard to talk weddings with them a lot of the time, we usually just use the book of face and meet up when we can.

    yes I keep up with everyone on fb too. it is good for keeping in contact. I have 10 in my bridal crew , 5 men and 5 women , all have something to do like ones doing video , master of ceremonies, e.t.c. think will meet up with them in spring and tell them what they will be doing ! ha.. they all wearing own outfits so that makes things easier . cant stop thinking about wedding at min, working out lists of all items I need to get for the décor I want.. realising a lot of things to buy, but will do a few bits each month to spread the cost. ahhhhh sooo excited !! Im really wanting to try my dress on again at the min.. anyone else feel like that ? :)

    ahhh so are you seeing her dress then before the big day ? I was watching yet another DTTB last night and realised my partner hasn't even seen the venue yet ! haha.. I had sort of forgotten about that... last night I started thinking ahhh I hope he likes the place.. but he has seen a few photos online which im sure he cant remember now what its like... suddenly realised what a big thing I have done choosing venue on my own and a responsibility.. it was only because its 2 n half hours away and he was working when they said I could view it and it ticked all the boxes and some.. he said if im happy with it then that's all that matters so book it.. i will be taking him in March when my parents visit so they can look after our toddler while we go.. sooooo excited to go back and look around again and go into the woods and work out wheres best to have our ceremony !!!!! eeeeeeekkkkk...

    Oh gosh, so he hasn't seen it at all?! That's a bit responsibility! Take him asap with your parents :)

    ahhh thats nice.. super exciting - 2 dresses !! yes hasn't seen it at all but to be honest though, he is very laid back , and we both had same vision and wanted the same thing and its not like its his/our cash, my parents are paying for it apart from maybe £1000, so I don't think he as bothered about letting me choose as he would be if he was forking out for it all.. if that makes sense.. our ceremony is in the woods, so he knows what woods looks like, so im sure will be fine ! ha.. parents wont be coming with us, they will stay and look after my daughter, I don't think its fair on her to sit in car for 6 hours.. and means we can go caterers e.t.c same day then too, without having a 2 year old running riot.. bless her..... ahhhh cant wait !!

    Thank you , I am loving the planning, I have a lot of ideas and things to make , and just hope that on the day and day before I don't have too much stuff to do ! But saying that 60 people will be staying at the house the day before so will be able to reel in some helping hands I'm sure !

    Today I'm writing a list of all the things I want for decoration, all the things and bits I want to make and then will be purchasing all the bits I need. So I can get started on it ! There was a fire down at a store That I love that sells fabulous but expensive bits, and they had a big smoke damage sale and I went and was sooooo chuffed , I got about £400 worth of bits for £100 ! so that's great and I love all the little bits and It really has now helped me visualise everything I had in my head ! Our woodland Ceremony will have lots of pretty sparkly things in the trees and hanging from branches ! and amazing huge feathers and sequined butterflies that are lush !! Sending the Fri-Mon weekend invites out This week !! Early yes, but want to know early on so can arrange the accommodation in the house , work out who has what rooms or bell tent or cottage, then if any spaces the Sat to Monday guests can be offered them then ! Exciting !! we have made our own invites, very simple and very cheap !! we having a scroll , basically printed on parchment paper made into A5 size sheets and then I burnt them round the edges .. 2 sheets, 1 says, Once Upon a Time... In a hippy land not so far away, Lived a handsome man named Matthew who met a red haired Hippy named Emma ! First they fell madly in love, then came a baby and now they would like to invite you to 3 days of Joy and Merriment to Witness and Celebrate Two Best Friends becoming Husband and Wife ! and the other sheet is the invite with details of our wedding and our wedding website so they can RSVP and find out all the details of the weekend .e.t.c , we have quite a lot of details and info so the website is great ! and I think RSVP online is a lot easier for my busy friends.. I have added some glitter , rolled them up added a wax seal and tidied ribbon in a bow round it and popped them into a silver wedding postal tube , to send in the post ! half of them being hand delivered as local. 100 invites for about £14 - paper and local printers only charge me £3 to print them, some ribbon , already had glitter. I bought 50 postal tubes for £25 . So all in all very happy with them and super cheap and easy !! :)

    Yaye !! I have bought my footwear !!!!! eeeeek.. so chuffed , Im really not a shoe person and we having a ceremony in woods and I love boots ! so made sense to buy a new pair of boots instead and so I can wear them after the wedding too, I have cowboy boots but wanted something bit more girly to go with dress and I liked Abigail party boots by irregular choice, but they bit high and couldn't find anything else I liked for ages, I wanted a Victorian lace up pair small heel, but would like brown leather and could I find a pair anywhere , NO ..just the cheaply made white bridal ones... then otherday I had another look on the Bay of E ! and YES THE PERFECT PAIR OF BOOTS in a size 4 real leather vintage shop ... said they been worn just a couple of times.. I bought them but was bit worried as since having a baby I can only fit into a 5 in some shops !! ha.. but they have just been delivered and they fit like a glove and are in pristine condition, look brand new !! hurrah ... soooo excited.. now to find the perfect Fur/feather Vintage Bolero ! :)

    I had fallen in love with a big princessy beautiful blush coloured one but day I was going to purchase 1% in my head said are you sure you want this style... so I left it week and went somewhere else and the lady said try this on and I fell in love with it, picture doesn't do it justice really , with this dress I felt like a woman and sexy in it ... whereas the other dress I felt fun and princessy and girly...and it made me realise I wanted to feel like a woman not a girl so I decided to go with this one . I will be wearing a flower and crystal circlet , boho style :)

    Thanx flossie and Emma :) I can safely say MrsRobson2be that No.. its not...haha.. i added everything up on the above list and its at £7250 already , my parents are giving us £7000 , but my grandma said she would give us £1000 as she just moved house and made quite a lot of cash from it.. plus we said we would put in a £1000.. So its ok. my partner wanted us to spend £6000 or £7000 max including our cash and grans and save the rest for honeymoon or rainy day e.t.c , but its not looking likely.. but to be honest, most of the bits left we could just buy throughout the next 8 months from wages.e.t.c. but i have no clue how much it will cost for the night before dinner and all the breakfasts for everyone for 3 days.. but we just doing bacon eggs, bread cereal for ease :) I keep seeing things i want though ... ha.. so easy to get carried away isn't it ! x
