Its all going ok thanks!! My H2B is having his gall bladder removed on Thursday so that will be really good as life has been on hold a bit as he has been really unwell with that, apart from that I feel sort of on top of it all!!?

Bridesmaid dress shopping this Saturday (she found out she was pregnant and wanted to wait until her scan and now that#%92s all sorted we can shop!!)

I#%92ve had 4 RSVP#%92s back; that makes it all rather official ?

What about you? How is your MIL2B getting on?

? for your H2B.

Thanks for remembering my MIL2B - she had her op last tuesday. She only had to have a lumpectomy and 2 lymph nodes removed. She gets the results next wednesday which will tell us if she needs more lymph nodes out, and whether she needs chemo as well as radiotherapy. She is doing well - she was out of hospital the next day. Bless her - she hurt her arm yesterday putting her rollers in to curl her hair!!!!

We have 44 guests so far so am very excited!! Mind you - the RSVPs have tailed off this week so I am getting worried that I am going to have to chase people!!

Not long now!!!! ?

Its coming round at a seriously alarming rate ?

I wish your MIL2B all the best ️?

I'm 20 September too & haven't a clue when I'm sending them out, I
have a lady making them for me but not decided what I want yet!

Should I be getting a wriggle on? I thought I had loads of time, far too relaxed with all this wedding stuff?

Hello V,

You got the job then??? Fantastic news. ?

Ive been decorating so not really been around much either and I tend to lurk more now. Family are all fine. J has just been to stay in Dumfries with my mum for the weekend and has come back saying Wee and ken. Is really funny with an English accent. ?

June sounds far more reasonable for a lazy ? like me. ? I was starting to think I was going to have to put some effort in. ? Are you all organised?

Donna x

Thank you all for your replys ?

Im glad its not just me then ?

I didn't get the job I went to London for, but I got another one - no way near as good or even that interesting - but its only until the last few remaing thinds are paid for - honeymoon and spending money!

So I've been doing loads of overtime cos the more money I make now the quicker I can retire? we were saving fine etc with me not working, but it left us with next to no pennies at the end of the month to go out with and do family stuff so I got a wee job to pay for the wedding bits - my wages to straight to the saving account!

Anyway I digress - Everything is all done now - just have to buy gifts for men & dads, something else for my sister (can't say what cos she comes on here?) and table diamonds. S ordered his kilt - its costing more than my dress by £20?? but thats excluding all my accessories so really my outfit cost more? and got the cake sorted! When I called them for a quote they tole me that the one I wanted was going to be outside of the caterers package so we'd need to pay an extra £50 but when we got there on the day and went through it with her she said because we didn't want the topper and were only having 3 tiers and 3 colours (ivory, red & silver) that it wouldn't cost anymore for her to make than the ones included in the package so we saved £50!!!

Getting really really excited now cos S cousin is getting married 3 weeks before us and they just text me for our address cos they're getting their invites sorted!

Luv always

Victoria

?I'm mid Sept & was planning on sending mine out in mid June, with RSVP mid Aug

My venue don't need numbers and details unitl 2 weeks before so that gives me 2 weeks to chase...

I hope this is early enough - I'd just gone by the standard bumph in wedding mags really which said 6-8 weeks before.

I haven't even made mine yet ?

I wouldnt worry - I just wanted enough time to bump people up the list and time to sort table plan as am having that made for us.

?

Well I'm not bumping anyone as we've not got a min numbers policy & it's a small wedding anyway.
I'm also making my own table plan which really isn't going to be fun a few weeks before the wedding! oops!

I'm not really worrying as there's no way I can get the invitations out before June anyway so it'll have to do?

Yep, got engaged 5 weeks ago!! I think I'm doing OK really, booked the venue and doing lots of browsing on the internet to help me decided exactly what I want to do.

Anyone else the 21st Sept???

We are the 29th August and ours are out already. Its a Friday, so wanted to give people enough time to organise time off work, if required!

id="quote">Oh yeah i never thought about that, i'm also a friday ,
22-8-08.I was thinking of sending mine out end of May.Mind you O/H hasn't yet booked the time off , think he's trying to tell me something?.I havn't booked it either , but in my defence i won't be in my current job in August

Hi Ladies! ?

My big day is also the 6th Sept. The invits are going out in a couple of weeks with an RSVP end of May.

I also plan on making most things myself so want definite numbers before I start!

So excited! ?

We're 31st Aug. We've already sent out save the dates and we're only sending out half of the invites by post - the other half are going by email. We've also got a website so we're pointing everyone there so hopefully our friends who I'm expecting might be problematic at responding will just have to press reply! We're sending day invites out 30/4 and evening invites out 15/5. We need replies by 15/7.

Our big day is 16th August and our invites went out on 16th March with a deadline of 30th April....

We've had 50% of replies so far.

16th August, will send beginning of May, hope to get them back 6-8 weeks before the day.

I'm September 20th and am aiming to send mine out mid May so I can start chasing defaulters mid June.

I'm hoping that'll be possible, I've picked them but not ordered them, and they take about 6 weeks!

Better put another phone call on my to-do list!

Im the same as Monkey Mavis, 23rd August ? Our invites went out the week before last, RSVP 31st May.
Started getting replys last week! Soooo exciting!!

24th august and sent the first lot out last week. Mum's still deliberating over invite list so will send last lot out at the weekend. I'm giving plenty of notice because it's bank holiday weekend so I figured people might be on holiday etc.
RSVPS 7th June. Don't know why, just a random date I picked! Think we go for final numbers 2 weeks before the day so plenty of time to invite more people (or not as we're already 29 above what we originally said we'd have for the meal!)
