Just completed our booking, only 10 weeks to go!

Ha ha, well done It's a very exciting time, so don't hold back here!

Tell us everything! Which venue did you choose?

Smiths Hotel at Gretna Green. A nice package that leaves little to organise, I hope anyway.

Woohooooo not long to go. You must be just after us. We're 7 weeks this Friday!!!

I can remember ten weeks so clearly and now I'm married. It flies by! It will be here before you know it.

Our friends got married at Gretna Green - I'm sure you'll have a fantastic time!

Keep us posted!

Look forward to seeing your plans

I did see your other thread but couldn't reply, love how after all this time it is finally happening, and 10 weeks is nothing, really enjoy this time as it will fly by so quickly!

Not many plans to show tbh! I don't know how to put pictures on either!

Oh putting pics in is simple once you work it out!

Click the film reel thing above where you're writing (next to the tree) and upload your photo. You can change the size on there - I usually go for 250 instead of 550

Thanks Stephisaur.

So far we're thinking this suit, or as close as

I love this dress but in white

Only issue with the dress is that it has a corset back and I think it's fair to say I won't be able to fasten it on my own.

Not decided yet between a lace bolero or something like this, will depend on final dress choice.

Not picked rings or shoes yet.

Loving what you have chosen!

Have you considered something like this for the dress?

Otherwise, have you got any Bridal Outlet stores near you? We have one opening soon called Wed2B and someone like that might be able to get you a 'proper' wedding dress that might have a zip up back?

I did look at a few Chi Chi London dresses but they aren't big enough in the bust, as is often the case with off the shelf clothes. Every other off the shelf dress I've seen that I can get with the correct bust size will be massive everywhere else.

I looked at outlet shops and the closest is about an hour and a half away but their website says dresses start at £150 and I have £100 to cover dress, shoes and accessories.

I'm tempted to order the corset back one and see if a seamstress can change it to a different fastening.

Oh that's annoying

I would ask a seamstress first - I imagine it will cost a bit to change from corset to zip

Handily eBay just sent me a discount thing so I have ordered my dress for £16.76! Its from China so fingers crossed.

I wanna see

Show us a pic

The seller has assured me it will be here in plenty of time and as it's fairly simple I hope there will be no issues when it arrives.

I've got my fingers crossed for you!! It looks lovely

Make sure you send us a photo when it arrives xx

Hedgemog, how did the big day go?

It was lovely thank you Stephisaur. Short and sweet ceremony, great hotel, couldn't have hoped for anything better. Got our marriage certificate on Saturday so now starting changing my name!

Aww lovely! glad you had a lovely day good luck with the name changing - hopefully it won't entail too much form filling!

Would love to see some piccies when you have them
