Any October 2009 brides??

Weather Girl, 31 January, 2009 at 09:13 Posted on Planning 0 12

Just wondering who else is getting married this October - we're the 2nd - and how you're all getting on planning wise. We've only really just booked the date and started the planning but so far we/I have:

Booked venue

Booked registrar

Arranged appointment to give notice

Chosen and ordered dress

Booked photographer

Booked florist

Booked music for ceremony

Booked minimoon

Drafted guest list

I'm now looking to order the invites and ishly decide on colours before seeing the florist in March. Still searching for evening entertainment, just can't find what I'm looking for.

What are you having for flowers, colours, entertainment, etc?

    I am! We're the day after on the 3rd.

    So far we've:

    Booked venue

    Sent Save the dates

    Booked registrar

    Given notice

    Chosen and ordered dress

    Booked photographer

    Decided on the invites

    Booked Chair covers

    Booked magician

    Booked DJ (although he seems to be very flaky i.e. hasn't even cashed the deposit cheque I sent him in October so am about to sack that DJ and have another one waiting in the wings!)

    Booked Hair and make up

    Found (but not booked as they may grow) the flower gilr dresses

    Decided and now need to order my CBM dress

    I seriously need to get my a*se in gear and book the florist now before they all get booked up! Will try and do that this week!

    Where are you getting married?

    We're getting married at Orton Hall in Peterborough. How about you?

    I need to sort out chair covers actually, no idea about colour yet though lol. Not having bridesmaids so that's something less to think about, do need to start looking at the mens suits though I guess.

    We're at Pembroke Lodge in Richmond Park.

    We had to use the supplier the venue suggested for our chair covers... several samples later we've decided on white covers and silver tassles instead of the bows, thought they looked a bit nicer.

    Must get H2B onto getting his kilt...

    Omg we looked at Pembroke Lodge! How spooky is that?! H2B is originally from that neck of the woods, in the end we decided to stay local to where we live.

    I keep thinking I need to get a move on but the more I think about it the more sure I am that we have plenty of time yet lol (or that's what I'm telling myself anyway...)

    Hello,

    I'm new to the forum. I'm getting married on 3rd October at Cartwright Hall in Bradford with the reception at The Great Victoria Hotel.

    I am way behind you girls and only have the ceremony, registrar and venue booked! I have a rough guest list, have chosen the food and drinks and have started on a list for the DJ (that I haven't yet booked!!)

    I'm having great difficulty finding a knee length wedding dress. Any ideas where I can look?

    Thanks,

    Sarah

    Yay SV you're my wedding twin!

    Have you tried Candy Anthony - I love their dresses and am a wee bit tempted to have one for the evening bit of the reception but that is way over indulgent!
