    If I'm early (or even on time!) H2B would think someone had abducted me and replaced me with someone else who looks like me.

    I cant be late. We are the last wedding and as its a sunday we HAVE to start at 5pm, they have said there is no leeway for me being fashionably late!

    Yeah, I hate being late for stuff, I start twitching if I'm going to be even a couple of minutes late. The venue also said that it's fine to be a few minutes late, but once a bride had still not arrived 45 minutes after the supposed start, and the registrar had to leave!

    Pidge wants the wedding to run to Army time- i.e I will have to be 5 minutes early. Just trying to make him realise that to arrive before the last guests (and some will turn up at 12.29...) will be rude!

    i hadnt thought about it, i am more nervous about him being late, but i suppose it would not hurt for me to be about 5 minutes late, how many times do you think they would look at their watches in that space of time. x

    I'm one of those people who leaves getting ready to the last minute.. e.g I'll know that I'm going out on the night but leave it till half hour before to start getting ready.. h2b starts getting ready 5 mins before we have to leave and he still beats me.. I think I'll have to change that before the wedding.. Must be more organised!! so yeah I don't plan on being late.. that just means I have to wait longer to be married to man of my dreams lol and I've got long enough to wait anyway ! x

    As long as I am the only one who is a little bit late that's ok - if the guests can't be there about half an hour before (the venue bar will be open if required!) that's just rude. It is my right to be a few minutes late but if I get stuck behind a tractor on the way there is nothing I can do about that!!
