    Hi All,

    My name is Hope and recently just got engaged (was not expecting it! Big Shock).

    We have set a date already being 14th September 2018 (yes the countdown has started haha.) I am overwhelmed by the amount of "to do's" there is. So starting the planning early!

    Hi all, newbie here. Recently got engaged on 4th July whilst on holiday in crete, to say I was shocked was an understatement ha.
    We haven't set a date yet as we are currently saving for a deposit and we want to buy a house before we get married however we thought we could look about for ideas and plan what we want for our big day now and then when we gnarly get our house we can get our wedding booked.

    I'm very excited to be planning ideas already I just hope I'm not doing it too early and our idea seem silly.
    I am also extremely overwhelmed with everything that a wedding involves and that's from only having a brief look ha.

    Hi Julie and welcome :) I don't think it is ever too early to start looking for ideas. I got engaged in March and although we said we wanted to keep saving for the house deposit first we have booked our wedding for May 2018 so the two will most likely clash that same year!

    I was surprised by how many people do tend to book the weddings even 3-4 years in advance so I wanted to secure the best places and dates but now I know just how much the wedding will cost me because everything is booked x

    Thank you. I didn't know if we was getting too eager if we are not booking anything just yet.
    We would rather have the money for the deposit first theb we have said as soon as that's sorted it's all wedding wedding wedding. I'm excited already but overwhelmed with where to start :) I'm going to look at the brides checklist over the weekend and start making a list.

    May is a nice month, we thought of may but it's so busy with lots of other stuff with our families ha

    We were thinking March originally as that's the month we got together and you may more for a summer wedding, but we went for May as we chose a bank holiday weekend in the end :) x

    If you are looking at a Bank Holiday weekend, then in my opinion, the earlier you get things booked the better.

    Morning Kirsti..
    I'm doing the same as you, saving for house and wedding. Have been saving for house for a little while already so that was always going to be priority. We have a rough wedding date but I would rather we had our little home ready before we got married.
    Can't offer any advice on the hog roast apart from it being a lovely idea and would def keeps costs down, especially having to save for the two most expensive things you'll ever buy in your life :-$

    Im new to the Site as a power user. Thought id take the plunge and upgrade.

    I am getting married in 2020. It seems so far off yet but I think it will be here before I know it.

    I met my other half (Kyle) on the dating app Plenty of Fish. At first I never thought it would last a day never mind getting to marriage. But 16 months later he proposed in Tenerife on the beach and we are looking forward to tying the Knot

    i have only just found my way to this site, and i wished i had done it much sooner - 97 days to go 'til i get married - i'm sure i should be more stressed than i am! Me and my fiance are in the process of looking into invitations, which is what prompted me to go to an online forum as there is so much choice and appears very costly. Now i have found some ideas after looking at one of the threads.

    Happy planning everyone! :-) x

    Me and my partner have been together for 11 years and engaged for 6 years! We decided to put wedding plans on hold to have a baby, our beautiful daughter is now 4!
    We're trying to keep our budget low so I'm hoping this site gives us lots of ideas and tips!
