    Ahhh I'm in the middle of you both them, done a bit, but not gone crazy yet :)

    I've ordered my dress, booked the venues and photographer and ordered bridesmaids dresses. MIL is doing cake so I don't have that to worry about it. In the midst of trying to sort of decorations and trying to find cheap chair covers. Stressing about my flowers, I have no idea what I'm going to do about them, they are sooo expensive. The same with cars too, they are right expensive but will sort something out.

    So still a fair way to go. But as long as my dress is amazing I don't care anymore. hahaha. x

    Yeah we've sorted where the ceremony will be, where the professional photos will be, and where the reception will be. Also who will be coming, how we'll deal with out of town guests ect ect. Just no bookings... lol

    We're in the middle of moving so that's why it's been on hold :)

    I've only been engaged since Tuesday, and we haven't really set a date yet 'cause I need to start school first and I want to wait until after I'm finished before getting married, but if all goes according to plan, we very well may marry on November 30, which will also be our sixth anniversary (someone up there is doing something right - fewer dates to remember).

    Edit: Ohmigawd, sixth anniversary? I've been with that boy since I was fifteen... that's like a quarter of my life!

    You've still got plenty of time yet :) We still don't know who's coming yet haha. It's so difficult trying to keep numbers down, we have more family than we realized x

    im getting my flowers off of ebay, there fake but so pretty. my friend had them at her wedding when i was bridesmaid and ive kept them and they still look as good as they did on the day :) ive got a large bouquet then ive got 6 smaller ones for the bridesmaids all coming in at 120 pounds :)

    Its defo worth a look. ive got all my table decorations and the table covers from ebay. I have also found someone in bridgwater that will decorate the hall, head table and out white chair covers on 100 chairs with sashes all for 400. Ive done alot of looking around and research lol. xxx

    I've looked on the flowers on ebay because I was thinking fake too, to keep the price down. I was just thinking I might buy everything to make them and have a go at making my own, that way I get what I want. But it's a risk because they might be rubbish. Your flowers sound like a right bargain.. I've got 4 bridesmaids and what I've looked at, they're coming in at about the same price!

    I've also got decorations and tablecovers from ebay, great minds eh :) and I'm looking at chair covers on ebay too.. £130 for 80 chairs with organza saches, which seems good to me. Just need to wait till payday to get them ordered :)

    I don't have a wedding in 2013 (that I know of!) but congratulations to all of the brides-to-be! I'm close to engagement and hope to have a forum to come back to when I'm as excited as all of you are (and deserve to be!).

    This is the number to my ones, 250986530923. ive emailed the lady and asked if i can change the colours slightly and she said yes so im having them dark purple lilac and white :) i think there a bargain and look well nice.

    Yep great minds ay :) i just didnt see the point in forking out so much money when you can get everything off of ebay for a decent price. I got 100 chair covers with sashes for 120 pounds.

    Ive got a budget plan worked out and everything and no what to pay off each month and what else to get each month :) xxx

    We've our venues booked and registrar sorted, I've bought my dress, shoes and lingerie, booked my hairdresser and have finally finished hand-making our invitations. My MIL-to-be is making us 2 tiers of fruit and sponge cake, and a friend is doing a gluten-free chocolate cake top tier for me!

    Need to sort out our photographer next, plus eeeeverything else...

    My wedding is June 29th. Congrats to all the other brides to be!

    I met with a wedding planner yesterday and I am so excited to have the help. How many of you have purchased your dresses already?

    I have booked the ceremony site, the reception venue, picked the tuxes and bridesmaids dresses, hired our photogs, and purchased the most beautiful dress for myself. So excited!

    Congrats to all the brides to be! :D

    I've been with my bf for 13 months now and we want to live together first before being engaged. So it's safe to say I won't be having a wedding in 2013. Oh well...maybe 2014? 2015? 2025?
