    Charlotte House in Lincoln. I saw the pics for Hemswell - it's a lovely venue and location - just a bit too far away for us.

    are you all organised? there's the wedding fayre at Jocasta's this Sunday which I'm heading off to - although i have ideas for cakes etc, i haven't actually sorted them out yet - but as i'm not getting married until next year, no rush!

    was looking at flowers today - but they are so expensive - have you got yours sorted? already our budget is creeping up!!!

    We ended up going with sims flowers in scunthorpe, they were almost half the price of most places we looked and they are an interflora florist!! they had a 10% off deal on too.

    we're pretty much all set now. got my first dress fitting on saturday which i can't wait for!! so excited, my dress is being made for me so this is the first time i'll actually see it!!

    i can't believe how quick ours has come around, we got engaged oct 2008 and now we've just over 5 months left!! its mad!!

    Well..............my colour scheme is quite odd, basically just going with what we like rather than sticking to anything strict but it black and cream is a running theme.

    my dress is based on the vivienne westwood one out of the sex and the city film. i got a gold silk vivienne westwood corset off ebay for £100 and am having a dressmaker make the skirt to match with ivory duchesse silk for the top layer and gold raw silk for the bottom. cannot wait to see it!!!

    i will be having a fairly simple bouquet of aqua pink and dark red roses with ivy and berries. i have one bridesmaid who has a long black strapless dress and will have a smaller bouquet same style as mine but with just red roses.

    we are not having a sit down meal and instead are having a late afternoon civil ceremony with 50 guests and having informal speeches etc and then having evening guests join us from about 6.30pm and then having a bbq buffet for everyone.

    we are still trying to find the perfect band who do classic rock as well as a little bit of cheese!

    h2b and i are huge Metallica fans and I am walking down the aisle to an instrumental version of Nothing Else Matters and then we will sign the register to the original version.

    h2b is tall, dark and handsome and i cannot wait to marry him!!

    what are everyone elses plans?

    To be honest i did most of the planning last year cos i knew exactly what i wanted but now that its getting closer i don't seem to have done very much more lol!!

    times flies by ridiculously quickly - i seem to have gone from 18 months to 6 months in a flash!!

    I love your colour scheme - I love black & cream together expecially with the red flowers. Have got a black, cream and gold bedroom! Your dress sounds fantastic great ebay bargain there on the Vivian Westwood boddice. ?

    Wow Sinatra i LOVE the sound of your dress and wedding plans so far!

    I think im pretty much the same as you as far as the planning goes, H2B and i pretty much knew what we wanted so when we found it we booked/bought it!

    He is going for his kilt measurements with my step dad and our boys on Saturday, then it will just be the BM and H2B's dad to have theirs done in Edinburgh. Invites went out about 2 weeks ago, mainly because if guests want to book a room at our venue they have to do so before 20th June to get it at the special rate.
