6 weeks to go...

MrsG_to_be, 24 May, 2015 at 16:09 Posted on Planning 0

No flashes but just analysing over the last 16 months of planning. It's been fun!

fell pregnant and decided to go ahead as planned so walking down the aisle at 8 months - mixed emotions; sad I had to sell my first dress, bit crap I can't drink and might be tired and puffy but excited for the baby and it will be like he's with us somehow

best man and maid of honour no longer coming - big fall out (they are a couple - BM and groom fell out so MOH decided it would be awkward to come alone). Still gutted! Bit worried it's a small guest list so might fall flat but hoping everyone just gets drunk and makes an effort to have fun

over spent on the perfect venue leading to everything else being on a tight budget - impressed at my ability to save money and get creative with DIY which has been so much fun even if groom has laughed at most attempts! Highlight was the handmade invites I designed and created from scratch costing next to nothing that lots of people complimented

groom has shown no interest at all until now where his enthusiasm is actually a bit annoying - wanting to change things I've already sorted, making me spend more money on extra decorations - but it's also kinda nice he's showing he cares after all!

Getting a free photo booth from a friend is pretty amazing!

most things sorted but still few outstanding balances to pay but otherwise in a good place with a month left to enjoy some much needed pampering.

Mostly looking forward to walking down the aisle and saying my vows. We have been incredibly lucky to have very helpful parents who not only have paid a large contribution but also assisted with little things and not been difficult or demanding!

I cant wait to say I do!!

    The weeks are flying by so fast, I can't believe that I'm down to 14 weeks to go - I'm starting to get those excitement and nervous butterflies, so god knows what I'll be like at 6 weeks to go!

    Well done on doing so much money saving DIY - I'd have love to be able to look around our reception marquee and say everything was done by me, but I don't have a creative bone in my body! congrats on the free photo booth too, you must be well chuffed!

    Sorry to hear about the fall out of the BM and your H2B, I'm guessing at this stage there is no chance of a reconciliation? How are thing between you and your (former) MOH? i'm hoping that you haven't lost her friendship too. I'm sure it will be sad to not have them both by your sides on your wedding day but some things cant be changed so try not to let it affect you both too much on the big day.
