Now that you have found your way here you will get all the help you need in planning your special day and make loads of new friends with the lovely ladies that make this site so special so enjoy every min of it!
Ok now for my modly bit.....
FIRSTLY can I ask you all to read the forum rule thread that is at the top of the page as it not only lets you know all our dos and donts within the forum it also explains all you need to know with regards to our heart and points system as well as a few other need to know bits.
Secondly for all you newbies that havent a clue where to start please read a thread called "a brides checklist" this has an amazing list of exactly what to do and when, when your planning your wedding and is a BRILLANT help! To find this thread go to the search above and type in the thread name as above and the thread will pop up for you :-)
Thirdly when writing a thread please remember to use the search above first because most questions have been asked so there are many threads available that have some brillant tips and advice in them that would be a shame to waste simply because you missed them.
Fourthly alot of you have your profiles restricted. To get the full benefit of the site you need to unrestrict them so the ladies can add you as friends and so they can put links on the wall if your trying to find something as they are not allowed in the forum. To unrestrict your page all you need to do is go to your wedding page by clicking the wedding button above. Then under your wedding countdown clock there is an edit button. Click that and it will take you to a page where all your details are, at the bottom is profile settings so just click that to public and your all set to go! :-)
And lastly JUST ENJOY BEING A MEMBER OF UKB AND PLANNING YOUR WEDDING DAY

Hey to all my fellow brides to be! congratulations! I'm a newbie too and we have our big day date set on the 15th of Dec 2018! I met the man of my dreams in 2010 in Kenya and thought it was just a holiday romance until we finally saw each other again in 2012 and became inseperable. Being proposed to at the place we met on the white sand beaches of Diani Nov 2016 was a dream come true. And yes I am feeling just a teensy bit smug So excited and looking forward to swapping notes and sharing good advice.

Tig here,
Hope Grooms are allowed (I'm working from home while Becky has to do the whole drive to work thing) as I have been given the job of arranging everything - I hope everyone is well and plans are running smoothly. We've already got our venue thanks to a quote from this site so we are happy and the time is ticking down but the waters are calm, for now :)

Hi, I am Amy, me and my partner are getting married April 6 2018 . Could I ask you all for a little advice please? Do you have any advice and any recommendations on good Dj's you have used for your weddings (or weddings you have attended), that are willing to do a variety of music genres and cover/ travel to the North West area. Thanks in advance x

Hello, I'm a newbie, getting marries 8th September 2017, it's coming round very fast, and I'm stuck with music for the ceremony.
CommentAuthorMrsLaidler2b
Hi everyone. Newbie here ... I got engaged in October last year and hoping to marry my one and only in April 2018. But we're having a problem, cant decide on a venue, mainly because we dont have a massive budget, just cant afford the wedding of my dreams simply because its just too much money and its been getting me down a little. So now we considering a Registry office and nice pub reception ... has anyone else had this problem ? All I want to do is marry my best friend and there seems to be so much standing in our way. My parents are saying theres loads of time and too just take step back and save some money, but there so much to do and so much planning, I dont think they really understand how much goes in to a wedding Can someone give me some advice, I dont know which way to turn
CommentAuthorMandyP25
Hello, I'm Mandy , and I get married in 9 days. Planning has been traumatic at times. Just a few last bits and bobs now. We are having a Registry office wedding followed by a meal at the Dunkenhalgh hotel. Just 19 of us in total. And no evening bash. Just going to relax in the bar at the end of day.
CommentAuthorMaxineP89
Mandy I completely envy you. Your day is exactly as I wanted it - with around 25 guests. We are now at a full blow do with 80 day guests and a further 50 ish for the evening !!!
Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan
