  • So eat it. Nothing wrong with things in moderation IMO. The little Kinder bars are about 61kcal & quite sweet. Healthier would be a piece of 70% + cocoa chocolate.
  • Aww thats great! My video probably is a bit cheesy but I loved the ones he had on his website http://lenikweddingcinematography.co.uk/cinematic-portfolio/ We did look at this company originally, will this be similar to what you'll do? http://www.shoot-it-yourself.co.uk/ Either way it's so great to have the moving memories,…
  • I was the one book that made so much sense! No huge list of everything you MUST have. Just how to have a great day. Loved it!
  • I loved that book! (A Practical Wedding)
  • Its a GREAT idea. Its motivation, they can push you to 'your' limits, not the limits of a group class and they can answer questions. Do it. Even if its in the short term.
  • You're lucky I had to move 10,500 miles away for love - now in Aus! lol
  • If you don't care about some things why are you having them?! We had a taxi to the venue & a supermarket wedding cake because we didn't care about them. Meant we could spend the money on a live band & a videographer instead... Get people to email you addresses then you can copy, paste & mail merge them onto labels...? Haha…
  • Haha that because I haven't written one today! I'm in the worst mood!! What's overwhelming you? x
  • LOVE that robingoblin!! 3.5 months will go so fast! How pretty Carross bet you're so excited!! How long until your big day? I finally got to wear mine! This is it on the big day, it went so fast! :-) https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152415282739656&set=a.164217359655.117105.164189954655&type=1&theater
  • I got mine at the end of November for a May 2nd wedding. It was altered 7 days before the wedding. Hope that helps? If you have a particular dress in mind just call and check the lead times on it. X
  • This didn't even cross my mind! I was alone at the hotel the morning before the wedding, think I had a croissant with jam, yogurt & fruit. I did go out for lunch with the girls though (wedding was at 5pm) and had steak & chips! :happy: Had a bloody marvellous day. :heart: Guess you must have a tight fitting dress? There…
  • I did! Its like the more I HAD to do it the less I wanted it. But it got to the wedding and it really didn't matter at all! We had the best day regardless of the fact I was a fatter than I would have liked. Now I can get back to trying to be healthier & be the best possible wife I can be. :-) You'll have a wonderful…

  • My wedding shoes were comfy & I only wore them around the house once before the big day. They were from LK Bennett. x

  • We didn't need any deposit for our photographer, videographer or band. Other suppliers were only 50 pound or so ($100) regardless of their actual costs. I'm sure some would let you pay in instalments if you asked. You want them booked & they want the work, they only want big deposits so people won't cancel them without…
  • I've just bought Maybelline colour tattoo eyeshadow, there aren't many colours but boy does it stay put!! No creases, nothing! I've only had it a week so still playing at how to wear it best but in terms of duration I'm really impressed. Mght also have a look at the Urban decay eye primer though, thanks! Aww my hair trial…
  • How exciting!! It's good you fabulous as you are too. Super pleased for you! You look fabulous!! X
  • I'm terrible for online shopping (especially shoes!) Websites I use (I'm originally from UK) www.kurtgeiger.com www.schuh.co.uk www.asos.com www.yoox.com www.topshop.com www.dune.co.uk www.shoesofprey.com www.office.co.uk www.modainpelle.com Amazon (of course!) lol Aldo LK Bennett French connection Sure I've missed a few…

  • Definitely! I've got Smashbox Primer but I'm just not seeing the benefit... What's it meant to do?! lol. Work have organised a hen do for me in Australia which is very sweet so might try some full eyelashes out then! Thanks ladies x
  • I was wondering whether it was but the last event I went to was awful with everyone glued to their phone! I felt so sorry for the hosts. Unfortunately I only have one bridesmaid & grooms man (down side of planning a wedding from the other side of the world) but it would be less awkward... hmmm
  • I was looking at Mac. Are the separate ones better than the full length ones? Unfortunately we're 3 1/2 hours drive away from any 'real' make-up stores (like Mac etc) joys of living in the country! This might be a super dumb question but if you do Fake Lashes do you still need mascara? What colour eyeshadow are you going…
  • So relieved it's not just me! :smile: Maybe someone else will be able to guide us. Hmm lash extensions...? My friend just mentioned those, never even knew they existed!
  • Lol it's had it's pluses but I feel like I missed out on a lot of the fun stuff too Lol I think a trampoline would drive my OH crazy. He'd be like " get out of the way of the TV!" Lol. Glad it's working for you :-)
  • Haha so glad to hear someone else is having waves of on & off motivation! My wedding is 7 weeks now (eek!) and I've list all motivation. On the plus side I'm not remotely stressed (by the wedding anyway) and living 10,000 miles away from everyone means no engagement parties, bridal showers etc. just the hen do the week…
  • Yeah we're skipping the garter too. Blue shoes will be great! :-) have you seen any yet?
    in Shoes Comment by Cal28 March 2014
  • Blue shoes can always be worn!! I have a rainbow of shoes :-) There are lots of different shades of blue too...? I'm hoping I'll get some earrings for my Birthday (4 days before the wedding!) that will be my something blue. Nice to have matching shoes L_R_P :-) I was using it as an excuse to increase my collection, lol. I…

  • I was going to make mine on Shoes of Prey - always wanted a pair! (they do wedges robin) but then I saw and fell in love with these: :heart: I saw a fabulous pair like yours Ellen from Karen Millen. Very talented making those! I'm not patient enough! lol :smile:

  • I'm going cocktail making but it was more just to suit everyone else. I wanted to do a fun activity day but it's not something half my friends would like, they tried talking me into a pamper/spa day which could be nice but I hate being messed with. :-) Going indoor skydiving for my birthday the same week with just a few of…
  • Have my fitting 10 days before the wedding (wedding is in May). I just ordered my size and hoped it would need to be taken in. x
  • Email them all saying how much you appreciate their help etc etc and how you know they're both super busy and it can be difficult keeping in touch but you're so pleased with "thing" and "thing" and thank you so much for taking some pressure off during such a stressful time...? Hopefully they'll both be appeased, see sense…
