My very mini wedding report - more to come soon i promise

Damiana, 11 June, 2009 at 14:14 Posted on Planning 0 13

Hi guys,

I'm back...I know that i have been back for ages and not done my report, so i'm a very bad hitcher!!

Well, its just a quickie to say hi and give you a quick low down on my day but i'll do an official report soon

Well.......

It all started on the 30th April (my last day at work) and the boys at work took me out for lunch. It had been a manic week, so felt nice and pampered by them taking me out for lunch. Was hoping to leave early, but no, that wasnt happening Smiley sad

I had an appointment with my hairdresser as soon as i got home, but , i never made it........thats because some absoloute (insert bad word here) decided to drive up my backside on my way home from work...Luckily enough i wasnt badly hurt, just some whiplash (which is still ongoing), but had to call my (then)H2B and tell him that he couldnt have his stag night, but that he had to come to hospital as i'd been put in the back of an ambulence and driven to the local A&E unit...

Like i said, luckily i wasnt badly hurt, but was dosed up on painkillers and other fun drugs and really was unable to do much the day before the wedding.....G0t married about 250 miles away from home so we drove up the next day.

Luckily i have some fantastic family and friends who all rallied around and let me be a little bridezillaish about certain things, as i couldnt do anything but delegate.

The day was great, and although i was in pain and not really able to drink much, it all went without a hitch and it was truely a fantastic day all things considered....

Honeymoon was great, can certainly reccomend St Lucia and the Rendezvous resort...

Came home to a written off car, drs appointments, car shopping and general nightmarish things..... slowly things are getting back to normal, now have time to breathe, but will do a full report soon.

Love to all Hitchers Old and New.

Speak soon

    My god Dam, my stomach actually turned when I started reading the crash bit. Good that you weren't too badly hurt. I know whiplash can be an ongoing problem but hopefully not for you.

    Glad that you had a good wedding day and honeymoon.

    Thank you for coming and letting us know.

    Bloody hell Dam! I wasn't expecting a report like that. I hope it didn't effect things too much, but of all the times. I would have lamped the driver!!!!

    I hope Matara was everything you expected it to be and you had a great day. I can't wait to see the photos!!!

    Hi guys, thanks so much for your kind words. I am begining to feel better...or just able to cope with it all better now, but still a little sore at the moment. Having treatment now, so fingers x'ed over the next few weeks it'll get better and better!

    I think that there were a lot of people who were ready to lynch the person who drove into me! Lucky i didnt have anything that i could hit him with at the time!!

    Yeah thanks again guys. Promise i'll do my report soon

    Dam xx

    Hi Dam,

    So sorry to hear about the accident but glad you still managed to enjoy the big day and of course the honeymoon.

    Hope you'll be fully recovered very very soon.

    I'm getting married at matara in 5 weeks time.

    Just wanted to know if everything went to plan and if the staff were good.

    I'm sure they will be, just nice to have first hand opinions about it

    Bet your photos are stunning

    From a BM's eye view it was a beautiful wedding, everyone loved the handfasting, and all went to plan.

    And don't worry - you weren't bridezilla ish at all.

    Oh my god Jo, you will love it!!

    Matara were fantastic and really really helpful. Even my boss, who is notoriously fussy about service and venue staff etc was really blown away.

    If u want, i can send you an e-mail with my contact details, and we can have a chat about Matara!!

    Hi Dam, another darling bride of May here. Sorry to hear about your car accident, you poor thing. Sounds like you managed to enjoy your day though and had a good honeymoon. We have literally just got back from ours today and I also need to do a few proper reports.

    Hiya Dam,

    If I could have your details that would be great. Thankyou.

    So glad you and your bridesmaid said good things or would of been a bit worried and couldn't handle that at the moment.

    Getting just the tiniest bit stressed especially when the groom has no interest whatsoever. argghhh.

    Jo
