I've only recently joined and this is the first time I have been on the forum.
I got engaged on Christmas day 2010 after being with my now fiance for just over 5 years, we are aiming to get married this summer, maybe June or July. 5 - 6 months to plan a wedding seems a little crazy but we just want to be married now!
Tips, hints and help would be greatly appreciated!! We have a smallish budget, are having a civil ceremony, breakfast and reception all in one place. The honeymoon is where we will splash out a little bit more as we are picturing a pure luxury break!! :-)

Hey all. I have a newbie question....what are the rules on discussing suppliers???
CommentAuthor'ca'ca'ca
you can refereence without naming suppliers in your posts, but you cant link to them unless its on your (or sombody elses) wall. Eg; You find a discount online. You mention in a thread, either starting one, or in a previously started one. [search first beofre starting new, mods dont like multiple thread] breifly explain, without naming names, and indate the amount of discount "10% off all weekend" etc. anybody who wants the link will reply, you post it on their walls. sorted ;)
Mods; im right? if not, please correct me! very sorry if incorrect :] <3 x
To confirm previous answer; this is from the bottom stickied thread :] NO ONE can advertise their business, products, or services on the UKbride Forum. Even if you are a client of UKbride you are not permitted to promote here.
NO links are to be posted in the forum, if you want to share something youve found, then please by all means let ppl know in the forum but post the link to the profile wall of those who would like to look or on your own.
All advertising will be DELETED by the moderators!
Advertising on the forum or blatant advertising on members walls or through pm is also not tolerated.
No names of other sites/companies/shops that do the things ukbride does will not be permitted, ie if you find another site that has the same wedding tools that we do then you may post to ppls walls IF asked but do not name in the forum. Well known sites like facebook and ebay can be used in convo but NO links to them may be used (most ppl use nicknames for these like bay of e and face ache, which is fine if you wish to do this if unsure).

Hi all I'm Hayley My other half proposed on my birthday 2009 and we have been quietly excited for a year now. We plan to get married April 2012 in Pembrokeshire where we both live. I foresee a year of panicky rambling and lots of attempts at losing weight - which will probably all by fruitless.

Hi everybody. I'm a newbie :-) My boyfriend proposed to me in Cape Town, South Africa in January and we're hoping to get married in September this year!! I'm a lincolnshire bride-to-be and am really battling with venues. I don't know the area very well as I've only been in the UK for 2 years which doesn't help either. If anyone has any good ideas please let me know. Also am I able to post a new discussion or do I need to be a power user? Thanks everybody!!
CommentAuthorLittle Kettle
Hi Bluefunk - welcome and congrats to yo and your H2B! Sept 2011 is THE BEST time to get married ;). You can start a new discussion - no need to be a power user. Any probs then just shout - everyone's so lovely and helpful on this site! x

Hi Girls,
My name is Kirsten. I joined the site a few months ago but have not really posted very much other than adding the date of my wedding. I am getting married on the 16th September 11in Carnoustie, Scotland. I think I have a bit of wedding OCD as I already have quite a lot for my wedding booked and i have more than 7 months to go. Am I the only one like this please tell me im not lol xx

Hi! I've just joined, planning to have my wedding next year and don't know where to start! I noticed there wasn't much info for hair and make-up on here though so to start things rolling I thought I'd let everyone know I'm a professional make-up artist and hair stylist so if anyone out there is stuck for their big day then please give me a call on ************! Right now back to me! where should I even start when it comes to arrangements? there's so much to do, i just feel a bit overwhelmed!!
Thanks guys, Jenna x
