Jen-lou's year mark planning thread (mega-flash-athon)

jen-lou, 15 July, 2015 at 16:33 Posted on Planning 0 20

Oh my word! tomorrow we hit the year mark ? where the eff did that time go??!!?

So I thought I would put everything in one place so here goes, it's going to be a long one! ha:

This is my original flash thread

https://www.hitched.co.uk/chat/forums/t/443423.aspx

I done a further update it was my "WEDNESDAY MEGA FLASH ?"

My car to get me to the ceremony


the champagne bus (outside and inside) my OH is using this has his transport in the morning and we are all going on it together to the venue after the ceremony.



We got out wedding rings,

mine


mine with my ER


My OH's


...the flowers..

for the ushers


for the groom and best man and dads


For the mums


Flower girl wand


for the bridesmaids


for my hair


my bouquet


PHEW, almost there, I found this picture of our venue at night and I love it, and had to share


So, now I can add to this for our (early) year mark flash:

I finally managed to pick up the custom piece of jewelry I had made



This is the bridesmaid dress, check out the bead detail on the straps, we have gone for the red. I so love this dress and i'm a little jealous my friend gets to wear it, ha.




This is what my bridesmaid has got for her hair (got to love a debenhams sale)


Also another Debenhams bargain...my wedding bag ?


and this is a little gift I have got for the flower girls


I'm sure i've missed stuff but ah well. I don't think we are doing too bad for the year mark.

Hope you enjoyed that, and I did warn you it was a mega-flash-athon ?

    Thanks guys☺

    I know @helensomerset I'm trying to think is it feasible for me to buy one and when can I wear it ha.

    I'm so excited for those flowers @auntyBJ looking forward to the lavender in my bouquet. Thinking of putting a little thin red ribbon on the flowers but may just not bother

    That all looks amazing. Love your flowers. I love lavender. I don't know about you but I can hardly contain my excitement to be at the 12 month mark in a matter of hours. The time has flown x?

    The lavender is a little nod to my nan who's no longer with us so it'll be nice.

    I know shelly. I'm super excited it's crazy how quick it's gone but is been great having a date gang. I think there are enough of us now to call us a gang ?

    Thanks everyone, just trying to now think what's the next job. Ha. To be honest there's not much left for me to flash so that may be it now until after the big day ? now that's a scary thought.

    Wow you seem super organised for a year to go....I am starting to feel very under prepared now with only 9 months left!

    I really love the idea of the wand for the flower girl. Very original.
