I thought I should introduce myself properly, Im a newbie to hitched!! Im from Birmingham, We decided just over a week ago to at last tie the knot lol, we have been engaged since 2004 so it was about time hehe well we have had two daughters and moved to and from Ireland in between so there hasn't been much room for weddings.
The date is set for 23rd October 2010 I want a low fuss day so we decided to go for a full civil wedding, breakfast and evening do all at one hotel, numbers are at the moment 90 daytime and 120 evening, I have a wedding dress I purchased a couple of years ago when I was a size 8, hence Im starving on a diet at the moment lol Im a size 12 now fingers crossed I can do it in time. Im having 5 little bridesmaids all under 5 and 2 older adult bridesmaids Ive decided with a butterfly theme and the colours I like are deep purple and silver. Im really excited my nan is over the moon and has decided to buy us the cake which is kind....she's already been shopping for one haha bless her!
Seen there is a debenhams sale on today so Im off there later to check out the flower girl dresses etc, ooohhh Im excited hehe!! Ive already found some great hints and tips on here and Im sure there will be more to come....thanks
