***NurseBride2B's Wedding Report - 19th May 2012***

*Nursey*, 8 June, 2012 at 20:19

Posted on Planning 97

Well then, I've finally managed to type all this up. To be honest it has been really fun going through the day again and reliving the emotions. I'd like to mention the sad fact that the report up until the "Getting ready" part was written in my notebook while lying in bed at 6:30 on my wedding day....

Well then, I've finally managed to type all this up. To be honest it has been really fun going through the day again and reliving the emotions. I'd like to mention the sad fact that the report up until the "Getting ready" part was written in my notebook while lying in bed at 6:30 on my wedding day. There's dedication to the cause, hey?! Hope you like reading it!

Bit of background for those who like these bits: OH and I have been together since April 2007 when I realised that for some weird reason OH fancied me. We met back in 2005 when I worked in A+E and he brought me lovely/not so lovely patients in ambulances. We've been planning this wedding for over 18 months, and we picked the date as it would have been my parents' 30th wedding anniversary, had my Dad not died of cancer nearly 12 years ago.

Anyway, better get on with the important stuff...

    I think we have a contender for best report!

    Seriously Nursey, this report is fabulous, felt like I've just been there with you - and you look so utterly gorgeous and in love. Sounds weird but I love hearing about the little bits that weren't quite as planned, reminds us B2B's of whats important on the day!

    To be perfectly honest Nutty, I am such a worrier and had a mini meltdown over practically nothing the Monday before the wedding because I was worrying that it wasn't worth all the effort and people wouldn't notice things. But I can honestly say in retrospect that spending hours cross stitching each butterfly for the wish tree, having Mum crotchet the flowers and shamrocks for the favours, having a spreadsheet to decide who got which keyring and deciding to go for something slightly different for our centrepieces and having camping accessories was totally worth it. People DID notice, and even people who I didn't think would care noticed things. But saying that, if the wedding didn't have millions of little bits then people wouldn't notice that they weren't there,if that makes sense?

    But on the day I really was chilled out. There were a few glitches but I honestly didn't care. It was just an amazing day.

    So to all the B2Bs: Try not to worry! OMs are wise - You really won't care about stuff on the day!

    Oh and I spent over an hour of my life sorting four different sizes/types of table confetti in two different colourways into 8 packets, one per table, and questioned why. But it looked so cute!

    They're fab aren't they? I only gave them to the children, as the adults had the keyrings. They're from here: http://www.cannycampers.webspace.virginmedia.com/index_files/weddingfavours.htm

    Amazing report Nursey!! I love it and all the little details are fab - looked perfect.

    I know what you mean about feeling like you're being rude to people - everyone wants to speak to you and you literaly speak to no-one for any length of time! Not even Mum! ?

    ? Same here! The only person I spent quality time with was my 4 year old niece, but only because she loves her Auntie L and when I'm about not even her Grandma (my MIL) gets a look in!
