Any 2018 brides around??

rusticbride90, 7 February, 2016 at 14:45 Posted on Planning 0 11

Hello everyone im new and wanted to introduce myself. My other half and I are getting married in may 2018, we got engaged last year and i am so excited about planning our wedding eventhough it feels like forever away.

Is anyone else getting married in 2018? Have you started planning yet? I'm worried I will run out of time for planning as trying to fit it around 2 jobs and my other commitments, but i think im possibly just being a complete lunatic as its over 2 years away lol

    I'm a 2018 Bride!

    We're getting married on 21st April and have the church, venue, photographer, evening entertainment/dj and hair booked as they are all already over half booked for next year. Most suppliers at the wedding fairs I have been to said its good to give myself so much time as I will be able to get the suppliers that I want and the time will go fast so quickly that it will give me plenty of time to plan!

    I can't wait i'm getting so excited! I had a chat with a bridal shop and have booked an appointment with them so I can start trying on different styles to get an idea of what I like as I don't really have a clue of what I want, I have ideas but I haven't any idea if they will look nice when I put them on so I'd like to get an idea now so I can look.

    I am a very organised person so I hate the thought of being rushed to plan everything and not get the suppliers that I really want and they are all honoring this years prices which is great as it will save a bit of money.

    You're not a lunatic at all so have fun planning!

    Hi ladies,

    Well this makes me feel better.. or maybe that I'm not as organised as I first thought lol we are hoping to get the venue booked by the end of the month so once thats sorted I will get cracking with the rest.

    Whats everyones style of venue? Anyone got a modern/vintage styled venue? Ours is brand new this year and a french style venue. Have been a bit hesitant to book as cant view it until may but have seen the artist impressions and totally fell in love, so think we are going to just bite the bullet and just book it as it just looks perfect.

    We're getting married in a medieval style church and the reception is in the medieval house, as below. There is a great hall which we will have for the evening reception, it's such a stunning room and theres nothing else around us like it and then the wedding breakfast will be in a smaller room which is lovely and cosy as we're only having 40 during the day so will get a bit lost in the great hall. It is stunning when you walk into the court yard and is stunning at night. I'm so excited and just fell in love with it from the moment I walked in.

    I think if you've fallen in love with the venue then book it as I think you do know when you've found the perfect venue and you won't find anything else that you like as much.

    Everytime I go there to see them i'm amazed and get more excited about the day!

    It seems so far away but I know the time will fly by!

    I'm having so much fun planning, all the people I have booked with are really helpful and lovely, although i'm shocked at the way some companies are, I went to look at some wedding cars yesterday that are local to us, when we arrived there wasn't anyone there and it was basically a farm yard and the cars were stored in some small shed's, I had to ring them to see where they were, when they arrived they showed us the car that I wanted to look at, it was in a tiny dark shed that you could hardly get into, it wasn't washed and had mud all over it, the seats were ripped, in the back the seats were all mouldy and damp, there were leaves and mud over the floor and it just smelt horrible in there! I rang a week before so they had plenty of time to sort it and they want to charge £375 a car, it makes you wonder if they really want you to use them and I'd be worried they wouldn't turn up!

    Hey,

    I'm a 2018 bride as well. We haven't set a date yet but we are thinking May/June. We already picked out our first choice for photographers and shortlisted a good number of venues. But haven't put any deposits down yet. I just hope we get the photographers we want...
