    Ah thank you all!! So excited ?

    Videogal- yeah the staff seem lovely there so far - we've visited a few trimes and they've always been fab. Nice to know that they keep their standards high!

    Aw thanks Sherrie - can't wait to see. They've redecorated the main room now - it was blue and red with green walls or something but now its all neutral creams and browns - much easier to work with and a lot easier on the eye! lol

    Hey a date twin thats awesome Liverbird - how's your planning going? Majority of my family are in Liverpool - I love it there!

    Thanks again for sharing my excitement guys now what can I start doing?? xxx

    Yup, that was me - well remembered! How weird we're now date twins!

    Planning's going great mostly, got all our suppliers booked now I think - venue, reception, caterer, cake, florist, photographer, ice cream cart, DJ, er can't recall any others. Have bought dress, rings, a few other bits and pieces for decor. Sorted out OH's suit and bridesmaid dress last week too - both bargains, yay! Hitting a bit of a lull now I think, got lots of creative things in mind I want to get on and do, but don't want to clutter up the house with wedding bits too much when we've still got 18 months to go!

    What's next on your list?

    Yeah very weird now we are date twins! Wow sounds like you have got loads done! I know what you mean though I've been holding off of buying little bits and pieces for fear that I won't have any room left in the house esp when it comes to xmas!!

    All we've got done is booked the venue (for both ceremony & reception - having it all at the same place) and bought my dress oh and some scatter crystals for our tables. My mum and I are doing the flowers and cake. Thats it lol!

    Just trying to decide on what design I want for our save the date magnets and then will be ordering them from vistaprint courtesy of FutureMrsJ sending me a discount link for them ?

    So next is TOG I guess and starting to collect bits for my sweetie buffet table for the evening do.
