8th October date octuplets....

*Marmite*, 9 April, 2011 at 08:24 Posted on Planning 0 5

...less than six months now! (meant to post this yesterday for six months but didn't get a chance!). How's everyone getting on? I have all the big things sorted ( venue, dress etc), and am now thinking about invitations. And shoes. I cannot for the life of me find a pair of shoes I like! I want metallic or coloured sandals with a max 2" heel that's not pointy as I need to be able to walk on grass. Hopefully as the shops get more summer shoes in they'll be something then! Anyone else stuck on one particular thing?

    Only 6 months...... no way!! That's just scared me! We've come to a bit of a standstill at the minute. Like you, all the big stuff is sorted. However, really struggling with invitations / stationery and still not found anything. Going shopping next weekend for bridesmaid dresses. OH is starting to think about suits. We have now decided where we're going on our honeymoon but just need to book it. We're also looking at wine for the welcome drinks.

    I'm struggling a bit with shoes too. I found a pair that I fell in love with a while ago but they are £445 but obviously I can't justify the price but everything else I look at just doesn't compare. My rationale head is winning at the moment though- "They're just a pair of shoes and noone is going to even see them!".

    It feels like it is all beginning to come together which is nice.

    Good luck with finding shoes. And thanks for giving me a wake up call- need to get back to planning with just 6 monthw to go xx

    Yay I'm so excited. OH was v romantic yesterday so I'm thrilled he's looking forward to it as much as me! We've sorted main stuff too and just found my bm's dress today. We have decided on stationery too but are in the process of buying a house so can't order our invitations until that goes through. We want to book honeymoon as our next task. Still seems loads to do but I'm loving the planning x
