1st flash with less than 6 months to go (lots of pictures)

Welcome to your first post and what a first post What a stunning location for your wedding and honeymoon too! I love your dress, theme and colours - it's beautiful. The time will obsolutely fly by. My OH is even counting the days to ours - 127 today lol, and he can't belive ho quickly it's coming round.

We are date twins !!! 9th may too x you look very organised. Everything looks just beautiful. I think time is going to fly once Christmas has gone.xx

Very pretty! The next few months will fly by - well, I hope they do anyway, as I am only 3 or 4 weeks behind you!

Thank you Pammy. I know, it's crazy, we are counting too, 159 days and time is flying by. Which is great as I am a bit too organized and now its mostly waiting for May. Our invites should arrive this week though and that's very exciting.

And hi Sarah, very excited to have a date twin. Thank god for the forum, I think my friends and family think I am getting too obsessed, even though I really do try and limit the wedding talk.

That looks like an absolutely stunning wedding! I love the colours! I was looking for a blush dress for a while but then ended up settling on ivory.

Can I make a teeeeny suggestion? With your dress colour, I would think that an all white/cream bouquet would provide a beautiful contrast. I really love the colours of the bouquet you've pictured, but I think they might got lost a little bit against your dress? Perhaps the BM's could have the blush flowers, and you could still use them in decor?

Ooooh, are you having BM's? Have you thought about having them in white dresses? Your wedding has really caught my imagination!

Hi SillyWrong,

I am actually not meeting the florist until January, so haven't really thought about colors yet for the bouquet. If there will be color in it, I think it would be a lot lighter then in the picture. But I will keep your suggestion in mind.

As we are having a civil ceremony only, I am not having any bridesmaids. In Germany, it's slightly different in regards to bridesmaids. Usually people only have them for the church ceremony. We are both having a bit of a hybrid of witness/best man which will be our brothers.

Edited to add, that I can see the picture now and if I would have bridesmaids, that white dresses would be a great idea.

All beautiful! Esp the dress/flowers & cake!!! Love!

Love, love, love it all! And I love the BM dresses idea too Sillwrong!

You're a week after me - eeeeeeeeek!!!!!!!!

It all looks gorgeous ❤️

Wow! What a stunning wedding you're going to have! Love the phrase small castle in Germany too

Thank you everyone.

MrsShep, I think it must be the smallest castle in all of Germany. But it has a moat and a turret, so I guess it classifies as one.

Love it all! Your dress is stunning and the castle sounds amazing, small or not! Do you have a German connection?

I am German and most of my family lives in the town we are getting married in. OH has a relatively small family, so we decided to do it in Germany as my older relatives don't travel.
Only problem is that Germans love their paperwork, I nearly had a heart attack when the registrar gave me the full list. :-)

Wow. Beautiful architecture and gardens. You must post your wedding photographs. Your photographer will be one happy bunny!

OMG, you venues are absolutely stunning!!! ❤️ Your dress is gorgeous too.

Love it all, it all looks amazing! I especially love your map table numbers, they're really cool!

Amazing! Love your style x

Thank you ladies. I love seeing everyone else's 6 months flashes too. Looks like there are a lot of us getting married around May. :-)

TreacleTart, the map table numbers will have names of places we travelled to instead of numbers. I hope it will look just as nice as on the picture. I will add it to the flash once they are done. Just waiting for some paper to arrive.

Our invites will hopefully arrive today. OH found them, he is very proud of that. They look like flight tickets, with luggage tags as RVPS, so definitely match the travel theme.
