    you're gunna wish you never asked!!
    we're having a chat about venues for wedding & reception when the reception brochures get here
    unsure on transport and photographer cuz we may have people in our families to do them
    h2b is sorting food, dj, suits - he hasn't started bless him!
    we're making invites, save the dates & favours but we haven't finalised anything
    I'm sorting decor, flowers, bridesmaids, cake & my dress
    I've know what I want decor-wise but need to talk to h2b about it
    I have a rough idea for flowers & bridesmaids dresses but haven't looked at anything yet
    and I have even began to look for my dress! or the cake! but my nan might be making it

    how's yours coming along?? xx

    Our photographers were £999 but that is for the two of them and we get them from when I get ready to the end of the night. That includes a disc of all the photos and also a pre shoot.

    They are even being kind enough to do a post shoot for us as I don't think I will be able to last the whole day so they will do another shoot for the couple shots after the day. I couldn't have wished for a better couple as they really do care about pleasing the client and making sure they get everything they need. I can put a link on your wall if you accept the friend request.

    aww katherine thats sweet of him to say that, but see what your saying i want to go abroad and somewhere hot but not sure if its possible yet due to my 3 girls 2 of them would have no problems me leaving them but my 3yr old is a different story cant leave her for more than a few hours at the moment, so if we have to take the kids on honeymoon will be somewhere in the uk but hopefully would find somewhere nice not just a caravan in brean lol xx

    Has anyone been to any wedding fayres they can recommend? We went to the one at the village hotel in coventry the other week and I wasn't impressed at all. Most stalls just handed out business cards and recommended us to look at their website...barely even a display to be seen. There were only button up dresses, no corsets in the fashion show as they only had two models! A huge let down.

    That's what I expected at the NEC, a bit of sparkly wouldn't go a miss when we're shopping for our wedding day. I now need to find a really big dress shop that treats you like a princess!

    I'm from Burton on Trent, dont think I have seen anyone else from the same place!

    I found our photographer on another wedding website, she is lovely and her photographs are great. The package that we are having is £600 (we got it slightly cheaper than this). If I canm figure it out, I will put her website on my wall? or you can just google hannah millard.

    We've booked our venue, only about the 3rd we saw I think, but got a good deal.

    Just digging this one back up :)

    I am in Worcester, getting married at the Curradine Barns in Shrawley.

    So far I have venue paid for and food deposit, dress sorted (not ordered as want to get as skinny as poss first lol), photographer booked, suit and kids outfits sorted (that's the whole groom's party done as no best man), registrar booked, sweetie jars bought, cake lady found, honeymoon research in progress ...

    I'm stuck on DJ, where to get a camper van from for H2B and his kids to arrive in, and ticking to centrepiece ideas - every time I see a different picture of something I change my mind!!
