    Your getting married the day after me! i gave notice in November because we'd booked the venue 16 months in advance ( i got a little over excited at the time!) and booked the registra on the 6th Sept!! i just wanted something offical to do and make it all real.

    Hi CaptainRae, 4th September suddenly seems like a very popular date to get married!

    Becky does it feel more official now you've given notice?

    Here's what I've done up to now

    Church booked including flowers & organist

    Reception booked including food & DJ

    Cars

    Photographer

    Flowers

    Dress, veil, tiara, shoes

    Bridesmaids dresses & shoes

    OH & male wedding party suits

    I'm actually pleased I wrote this down cos it looks like I'm a bit more organised than I feel (although I'll admit most of this has only been done in the past 6 weeks). Now its got me thinking whats next on the list!

    My colours are chocolate & cream with a teeny bit of gold. What colour have you gone for?

    When are you both sending your invites out? I don't want to leave it too late as its still part of the school holidays so I don't want to take the chance that too many people will have booked to go away. Does May seem ok or am I way too eager?

    I think I'll do mine sooner rather than later, i know people getting married late September who have already sent them!

    Can't believe it's only 6 months away!

    Yea BoroKate it does kinda feel more real!!

    Lovely colours ladies. Mine is Hot Pink/Fushia with bit of white and green foliage with the flowers.... i think!

    I am thinking of sending my invitations out around the end of May. I know a lot of people who are sending theres out earlier but i think if its too early some people might forget and book other stuff!! Not sure?....
