    Teehee - Could I have a link to your wedding report pretty pleeeeease? After seeing your hair and jewellery pics I neeeeed more!!

    Helsbels - Ah yes, I went last weekend after not going for 3 years or so, I only spent £70 and had a trolley full! Ok, so most of it was glass jars, but couldn't pass up 48 @ 50p per jar lol. Had the obligatory Dime (I refuse to call them the other stupid changed name!) bars and Ikea icecream, yum!

    It all looks amazing. You are so creative. It will be such a fabulous and personal day.

    Where did you get the mug for your OH? It's actually my OH's birthday the day we get married so I'd love to give him something like that along with his other presents

    BTW, is the VW van yours? OH and BM are planning a road trip to Scotaland to visit distilleries for the stag and the BM suggested the other day that they hire VW vans which started a big debate as to whether you can do. i piped up with the info that "i know Hitchers that have hired them for their wedding day" but we werent sure if you could hire them for a number of days!

    Also i ordered a different desig Mrs ..... to be after seeing yours! i also went a bit OTT and got BM anf MOTB ones too! ?

    I wish it was ours!! lol.

    We are hiring it for a week, originally just for 2 days but it worked out pretty cost effective to have 7 days and go on a minimoon as we can't budget for a flash honeymoon.

    It is self drive, we will be having my Dad drive us Smiley smile There are allowed to be two insured drivers so I will be the other one, I'm a better driver than H2B lol!

    Not sure if I'm allowed to say who hires it but the company is called split the difference.

    I got my tiara just recently off a fellow Hitcher Smiley laugh But it is from Glitzy secrets originally, they have an online store. It is the "Heirloom of Beauty" side tiara. Smiley smile

    I'm impressed at how organised I'm being.. I think it's more a case of "See it, want it.. before I know it I've bought it" lol
