Not only am i a first time user to the website but also a first time bride to be - at my age (40 in 2 weeks) can't quite believe it! spent the majority of my 20's too busy enjoying myself as a singleton without any committments! but now after being together for almost 5 years my boyfriend (or rather fiance) proposed to me on his birthday in front of all my family. he's been married twice (yes twice) before and it took a lot of courage for him to do this. i want this wedding to be special for all concerned. he has two daughters from his first marriage so i need to be sure that they feel just as important as us.
First stumbling block.... we are having a civil ceremony - due to his first marriage in a church and the second in the local registry office! costs need to be kept to a minimum but between us we have quite a large family, plus we want all of our friends to be invited in the evening.
Does anyone know of any good reasonably priced venues for the civil ceremony, the wedding breakfast and an evening do in the Lincoln area? any suggestions would be most welcome.
wedding's not planned until 2011, so lots of time to think about it all!!
Thanks in advance
