so missies, just bumping this up, wondering how your all getting on, havent done much lately.....

got lanterns and ordered material for the church, was quoted 135 euro for someone else to do it, mental, also ordered material for the pew bows at the back of the church to try get people to sit up the front initially anyway.....oh found out 2 shops to bring BM's to try on a few dresses, just have to get them organised now...would be great to have that done, its on my mind all the time

how are ye all doing???

Coming along nicely december!
I met a decor guy yesterday. He is doing candelabra centrepieces, up lighting and a fairy background. Deposit paid. Got my shoes, we really high- even for me! So I had the heels shortened. 100% better. Still 4 inches high. Collecting my dress and ordering bridesmaids Friday! Registering with the state next Tuesday.

ah your flying it.....i've so much to do

just putting this out there.....went onto yankee.ie and ordered votives for the bm gift bags, 12 for 22euro, thought it would be a nice little thing in the bags, not really sure what else is going into it, but sure....their little pressie(jewellery - newbridge) and maybe flipflops, headache tablets, and a thank you note, that should be ok? right!!

trying to organse a meeting with the hotel chief, to talk about the food/menu, waiting on them to come back....and that's it really...calling CBM this weekend to try and see some dresses for them over the next few weeks

Get shoes
Outfit for next day

Present for h2be for wedding day - have it picked, his parents are both deceased so I'm ordering a locket with a picture of each of them for h2be to carry with him in his jacket pocket on the day. Journey lockets.com, they're lovely.
Men's suits to be hired
Can't think of anything else.. Excitement!!! Hehe x

I've just dropped my dress to my parents' house! Eek!!!
Soo excited! Had hair trial and make up trial before heading to pic up dress. Very happy with both. Loved my hair! Ordered bm dresses too! Woohoo!!

[Mistletoe12]

oh azriel that's so exciting, well done you......do you mind me asking what are you doing with your hair, up or down??? i havent really thought about it yet, though i kinda want it up with it swept to the side...i think havent really a clue, was thinking of putting a side hair band in, but havent found one, and still havent decided about a veil....

got the bm's booked into shop for their dresses, in 2 weeks, so hopefully can get their dresses ordered then, dont want to drag it out too much longer....been actually thinking of what to wear on hen and the day after wedding...i know loopers, need to prioritise, but want to look the part...if you know what i mean...

just enjoying a glass of vino.....and a relaxing weekend...happy easter missies

hair going up for sure. I have long hair and it doesn't really hold a curl so i think if i left it down, it would flop after the church.
I saw a diamante comb on Friday but i figure that's something i can shop around for. no panic there.
This is the hair after the trial- the hairdresser said on the day it would be more secure etc. i loved it.
