    Ok... maybe I'm stressing too much too soon...... but where did everyone else start with their wedding?

    Is it best to get the venue booked first and then take it from there or just do things when you can?

    We have seen a few venues and their are some really nice ones... but cant decide

    AM I being to impatient? lol

    take a deap breath hun, i know how you feel i felt like that when i started planning lol
    i looked at church and reception venues and once they were booked i started looking at others youll be suprise how things start coming together once venue is booked,
    do you want a church wedding, registre office or hotel thats the first thing to dicide

    I know where i want to be married not booked or anything until we have saved a little for deposits but i have got a few bits and bobs for favours and decoration!
    Got some glass vases to be painted by a friends mum for my centre pieces and using as candle holders rather than flowers!

    Kinkyemo - thank you.

    DW82 - it will be a hotel.... thats what we have been looking at ... unfortunatley there are too many nice ones... just have to narrow it down to the one thats suits us both best I guess!

    yeah that is the problem so many to choose from lol,
    have you gone and looked round and seen the wedding planner it will be good to see what packages they are offering and see whats within your budget that will help to narrow things down abit lol

    DW82 - yeah we have seen a few wedding planners/coordinators and there are some venues that we have taken off the list straight away and some which are very close to what we want( am I being picky? lol).

    We are going to see three tomorrow and hopefully we can make a choice from there!
