September 8th brides - 10 days to go!

Hey Cake Lady, can you believe it's 10 days? Well getting more like 9 now!

I'm am sooo excited it's unreal, not nervous at all (yet?) just worried/scared but not about getting married just about everything being ready in time and perfect on the day!

Only got 3 working days left although sadly got OH's Nan's funeral on Friday ☹️

Left to do is my table plan, what a b*tch that's going to be, attempted it weekend just gone but failed at the first hurdle as the frame I've bought is pants! Still got to do my sweetie trees, collect suits and my ER, wrap presents and decide on whether to order some umbrellas or not other than that think I'm done! I hope!

Have you got much left to do apart from get your WR and make sugar roses?!??

Hi. Yes I'm nervous in the same way - not about getting married but that everything goes okay. I've worked out table plan yesterday but got to actually make it yet. Got to get shirts & new shoes for our boys who are Page Boys & lots of baking to do next week as well as cake decorating! I've got three days left at work too but hoping to finish early on Tuesday & then it will be all go. Also got to make up favours, sort out flowers & make some simple menus. Wish I was a more organised person...

Sorry to hear about your OHs Nan. Hope it goes okay on Friday.

Can't believe how quickly time is going. Think I'm going to risk not getting brollies & wellies (as I'd intended to). I'm a bit of a pessimist normally but going to be optimistic about weather changing for the better come September!!!

PS Thanks MissyLou for starting a good luck thread for me. I'm touched as I don't come on here often & really didn't expect to get one so thank you xx

Scary isn't it? I worked out my table plan a while ago too for me that was the easy part, I did sit down and work out all the measurements for it as well but now it looks like I'm going to have to change the frame which may mean a different size so I'm going to have to do it all again! That's this weekend's job and one I'm not looking forward to!

Venue are doing my menus for me, but favours and flowers are done. Although I've not paid a penny for the flowers yet, my florist seems really unorganised, I keep asking to pay her some money but she says it's okay if it wasn't for the fact she comes highly recommended by the venue and my auntie-in-law as she is an old school friend of hers, I'd be starting to worry about not getting any flowers on the day!

That's okay, thank you! Just such a shame about the timing!

I really can't decide what to do but I need to make a decision quick re: brollies as I will order from eBay and need to make sure I leave enough time for delivery! I realistically don't think we'll need them as the advanced forecast isn't predicting rain for a good few days before and after the wedding but you just never know with our weather! I may order just one for me as it will be sod's law if I don't have one I'll need one!

You're very welcome for the GLT, as a date twin I wanted to started a thread for you! 8th September of course is the best day to get married on ? xx

Hi Ladies.

I can't believe its single figures now - 9 days! I think I'm panicking more than anything that its all going to be OK and i can pull of my planning!

Have done alot over the last couple weeks as i have done alot DIY.

still table plan to do, its designed, just got to print and put in frame. Confetti cones i did yesterday and i am boxing up all my china and varses today so ready to take to venue!

Oh and have my hair trial later today too!

Oh and ive got to print the order of service, wrap the wedding parties presents, find a something new, borrowed and blue, pick up the dresses...

Hi Ladies!

I really can't believe how fast the last few months have flown by, it's almost our time.... eeek!!

I still have a few DIY bits to do - table plan, placecards, favour boxes, cancer research pins and labels for our candy buffet (everything is printed we just need to get sticking!) I still have a couple of fillers to buy for our gift bags and the children's activity packs. So glad tomorrow is my last day at work as I will need the whole of next week for sure! As well as finishing all these last few bits off we will be picking up dresses/suits, packing and taking everything to the venue - plus I have a few beauty treatments booked - next week will be chok-a-blok!!

We bought brollies from ebay just in case as I've heard mixed forecasts, if we don't need them (fingers crossed) we can always re-sell them! Hope you are all well and enjoying the anticipation of the last few days!!! xx

Wondering if I should buy some brollies now??? It will be sunny though....I'm optimistic about it!! If not, we won't notice the rain as we'll be so happy & sunny inside already!
