Oi, newbies.....in here.

Hey there

im anglefish have been with other half 5 years in nov on my birthday,

were getting married on new years eve next year it feels sooooooooo long away

i would love teal but cant find any dresses so still looking for our colour and theme but were having different sweets for our centre pieces and naming the tables after the sweets retro sweets from when we were little.

trying to keep the costs down as im sure everyone is lol

im very excited about all this weddding stuff we chose my engagement ring last week and iv got to wait 2 to 4 weeks for it boo x

If ive learnt one thing its how quickly it all come round, everyone tells you that and you dont quite believe them but trust me it really does! we got engaged on the 2nd sept last year we were getting married in april 2010 but i couldnt wait that long so in january we brought the wedding forward to september year.

i remember someone else on here was having teal and had an aboslute nightmare trying to find everything to match because there was so many different shades of it.

i was at a wedding last weekend and the bridesmaids were in dark turquoise, the dresses were really gorgeous, ill see if i can find a pic

Ooooooh thanks that would be great we are def thinking along the lines of blue teal or turqoise thanks x

Heres a link to the dress, debenhams have quite a lot of turquiose dresss just now the back of this one is lovely though

Im not really much of a newbie any more but ho hum! OH proposed in November last year and we planned the wedding for 25th June next year, and the time has just flown by, but I didnt even notice it passing, kept thinking ill start planning soon but got ages yet, then about two weeks ago suddenly realised it was only 10 months!! 'Tis flying by now! Our colour scheme is baby pink - other half choice, its his fav colour, bless him! x

We've been very slow getting our acts together - we've been together 5 years, engaged for 3 and a half. We set the date about 2 years ago (111 days to go!?) but deliberately left ages because we didn't even have anywhere to live together at that point and I was still on a training contract!

Colour scheme is bottle green, ivory and silver.

No theme really, just loads of random stuff that we both really like so it might work or it might be a mess of different ideas!

Welcome one and all.

Anglefish? Why are you called Anglefish? Should it not be "Angelfish?" Or is there a story behind some kind of angular fish? Just had to ask!

Ha ha lol i spelt it wrong and cant seem to change it ha ha xx?

I did wonder! I just kept reading it as "angle" fish and it was making me chuckle!

Thats going to make me chuckle now thought i had got away without people noticing ha ha xx

Hi all,

I met my fella at work, we've been together 6 years next month. We have a 20 month old little girl.

I proposed to him last Feb (leap year) and got myself a temporary ring, I am having a pink diamond ring made for my real engagement ring.

We decided to get wed around August 2011 but I have mithered a bit to get the ball rolling. We have a week off work at the end of this month and are going to look at some venues. I thought we'll get that booked and then I can leave it for a bout a year but I already have wedding fever - eek!

Hi everyone, I have been with my OH for nearly 4 years now, we are getting married on 26th June 2010 and this will be my 2nd time as i was really stupid and got married when i was 23 (biggest mistake i ever made but i guess you learn from your mistakes eh?) i am so much more excited about this wedding than my last and i am very determined to have the things i want this time and not what other people think i should! We are very laid back and just want the day to be fun - there will only be 15 people (including us) at the ceremony and then we will invite anyone and everyone to the evening reception!!! ?

Hey all,

Me and my OH have been together 10 years and engaged for 2 and a half, but we only just set the date - for June 2011 - a month ago! That's mostly cos we live at opposite ends of the country and have been saving like mad over the last few years to buy a place together before we get married.

Our colours are going to be navy/midnight blue with a hint of pink and we've got a bit of a 1940's theme (well it'll be more 'vintage' really I think!) going on. Also planning lots of DIY, to keep costs down and make it more personal too!

LOL! I had been wondering this for a while too! Sort of thing I would do!

All you oldies know me well, but for the newbies-

My name is Zippy aka Vicki (or should that be the other way round?)

I am 29, met h2b 2 yrs ago today. Got engaged March 08 and we get wed August 7th next yr. So nearly 2 and half yrs from engagement to wedding but for all those who worry about time - the last 18 months have flown!

Our colour scheme is sage green and ivory with no particular theme, just things that are 'us' like our VW camper for transport, and retro sweets for favours, and surf beaches for table names.

Welcome all you newbies.

Hi im Sparkles.

Met Mr Sparkles last January off the Internet.....yes it does work.

We are getting married on 21st August 2010.

I dont have a theme at the moment! Although butterflies may be involved!

Hi, im newish.... we postponed wedding plans a couple of years ago due to buying a house together but we're back on track for next summer again now... We are just sorting out the venue at the moment so we have a long way to go!

Hi, I'm Tizzy, I've been lurking for a while but only started posting last week...

I've been with my OH for nearly 5 years, engaged since last September and getting married in 25 days!

Colours are burgundy, ivory and silver and although we don't officially have a theme my Dad's decided it's a cheese and wine party - our cake is made from cheese and our tables are named after wines ?

Hi Everyone!

I'm Wedding_Princess or Cat as I am normally known! OH and I have been together about 3 1/2 years now and he proposed on holiday in Corfu last year. We are getting married on 26th June next year and which is almost exactly 2 years since he proposed (24th June)!

We are getting married at South Cave Castle (in case anyone wants to google it!) and are having a civil ceremony so the whole day is going to be there! I am having 6 BM 's (i know) 3 FG's and 1 page boy! OH has one best man and 3 ushers so might be a little bit crazy!

Planning is coming along nicely atm and have done quite alot in last few weeks...next 2 jobs are flowers and cake!

Happy planning everybody!!

Hello

I'm not sure if I count but i'll say hello anyway.

I used to come on Hitched a lot as a jewellery/tiara HIB (Hitcher in Business). Now I'm having a special 'not getting married' day in October! We are not getting married for various reasons that i won't go into, but we have been together for a long time and have decided to have a special celebratory day anyway. The day is close to our 15th Anniversary and our 40th Birthdays, so they are the excuse. We are having a canal boat trip followed by a party at a museum. I am going to wear a special dress, but it won't be white.

So I'm not a proper bride but hope to be allowed to play anyway!

Hi!

I'm not a newbie, I'm bec, getting married in 4 weeks (eek) flying out 3 weeks tomorrow to Santorini for the smallest, but most perfect wedding I could imagine, then having a fab party when we get back!

Nice to see some Newbies! x x

Hello all!

I'm Katie (KLS_1978 is such a lame name that I'm going to pretend it doesn't exist!). I met my OH at work 5 years ago. We're getting married on 1st October 2010. It seems like sooooo long away but I know it'll be here in a flash.

Current colour scheme is orange, brown and cream but that may change as most weding related things seem to be changing daily!

I'd registered with Hitched months ago but now that I'm getting pretty serious about wedding planning I've started hopping on here more and more. I'm now quite addicted!

Hi all,

thought i'd say hi to all the newbies wave] though I'm not new anymore (I don't think so anyway... )

known Mr Tango for about 6-7 years and got engaged last October (don't make me count).

the big W is on 4th April 2010. Colour scheme changes slightly daily but generally turqouize, Lime green, Yellow and either teal or Dark blue - really into my retro 70's patterns at the mo so something along those lines.

Hi everyone and congrats and welcome!

OOO another April wedding - I'm the 24th but don't have a twin yet.
