all becoming very real now!!!!!

fiona1984, 27 April, 2010 at 10:02 Posted on Planning 0 6

So the wedding accommodation issue is now sorted and a few other weddingy things are gathering momentum.

We have had to give names of guests wanting rooms and last night we had our second meeting with the vicar. He went through the entire service explaining what the main themes were and what they meant. This almost brought a tear to my eye so I am now dreading how emotional I'll be on the day!! He has also signed my passport form so that is ready to go nearer the time.

My bridemaid dresses are in and have booked fitting appointments.

At the weekend were are sending out the invitations...so excited about this and starting to receive RSVPs

Hope everyone elses plans, especially fellow hitchers for August, are coming along nocely

    Soooo exciting isnt it?!!

    Yes its all wizzing along nicely at the moment and it looks like we may keep to our original date!

    We paid the remaining balance for the wedding cake last night and am putting the cheque for balance of the flowers in the post today, got to order the FG dresses and shoes soon, the balance for my hen weekend has to be paid by 7th May still £500 outstanding from the girls - despite me nice but to the point e-mails saying i want the money by friday 30th april!!! ( i knew this would bloody happen and they have had over a year to pay!!) have said if i dont get it that their places will be cancelled and they will lose any money already paid in!!!

    I think I have most things covered, waiting for the invoice from the hotel....yikes! Got to pay for the car today and I think I am nearly there.

    Dress done, favors made, table names done, centre pieces sorted, contacted entertainment - still need to do song list, need to pick up the marriage license things and send to the different borough, just need to make sure all my guests are still coming lol!

    I am with you on the suddenly feeling very real now. I think it hit me this week, that we don't actually have much time left now! The RSVPs are starting to flow in. Everything is booked, mums are starting to get their outfits. All men have been measured for their suits. Bridesmaid dresses are being made, flowergirl dress is on order. It's all very exciting now!!

    Our RSVP deadline is this Saturday, and I've pretty much sort out our table plan - then it's just sorting out all the little details so we're all set for the big day.

    My counter today is especially scary - 1 month, 1 week, 1 day! (or to put it another way 39 days!)

    Yeah, its all starting to feel real for me now, because I know what I actually want now after months of looking online and in mags Im actually ordering up stuff and making decisions! ?

    Im feeling a bit more confident about it all now that the deposits are down. Been to see my florist today and ran through everything I like, so thats sorted. Also got somebody to make my cake!

    All came in at £140 under budget, yayy!!!

    Now, what can I spend that £140 on .............................................................................. ?

    Yes, becoming a lot more real now. Started sending invites this week and I was feeling a bit giddy at work when I handed them out to people. Sometimes I feel like I'm really on top of things and then other times I'm having a mild panic about making final choices and paying balances.. etc..
