Righty-ho, enough of my moping. Here's what we have so far and I'd love any comments you may have about things to add, take away, develop etc. Particularly interested to hear your thoughts on colours, flowers etc. Mr CB is keen on white or neutral flowers:







My three bm's (one teal, one midnight blue, one purple)


Trying out the bm dresses!

my sort of frock - mine is based on this but has some additional lace. I'm going to wear it with a shorter veil and the shoes in my avatar. Any ideas as to hair and jewellery?


I like things like this - natural fabrics and colours.


Erm, not sure what else to add. We want a relaxed and happy day. I also want candles, lots and lots of 'em!

What do you reckon?

    What colours are you thinking of for table flowers, are you after all whites or some colour? You have so many lovely flowers to choose from in may I am most envious, especially with your venue flash

    Gahhhhh missed the dress pictures. Get them back up woman....pretty please with a cherry on top?!

    I'm with you on the all white flowers as that's what I had.

    The bm dresses are lovely and they fit your bm's perfectly. I might need to take a trip to John Lewis now. x

    Here it is again. This is the same sort of shape as mine but mine will be different to this - it'll also not be too big or too long!

    Glad you like the bm dresses, Lyns! I'm actually in the teal one, he he! Didn't want to miss out on the action.

    Sherrie - you are ACE! I love all the barn ones and the flowers have given us some great ideas. I showed Mr CB some of them and he said 'wow! that's just how I picture ours to look!' erm, not much to live up to then, eh?! Thank you xx

    Cricks I can say without a shadow of a doubt YOU WILL KNOCK MR CB'S SOCKS OFF!! I love seeing your dress.

    I love all of your planning piccies so far - especially the scrabble letters. I bought Mr S some scrabble cufflinks with his initials on - might be an idea for Mr CB?

    That is a good idea. Thanks, lovie! He might not wear them on the day as he has some family ones but still, it's a gift, he ought to be grateful ?

    I'm on the hunt for wooden scrabble tiles and wooden scrabble tile holders so if anyone has some spare ones knocking about, please think of me...

    Have you looked on the Bay of E for scrabble tiles and holders?

    For some reason, all the Scrabble tiles are from Thailand... odd!

    Most of the Thai ones are the wrong size, sadly. I shall keep looking!

    What about these ones? Another option would be local markets/ antique fairs. Or contact a local antique shop - they should be able to source some for you or know where you can get them.
