I have had a very wedddingy weekend and thought i would post on here coz i think a) im driving my friends mad b) i am at work and cant talk about half of it!!!
First my Mum (who lives in Spain) is visiting and on Thursday we went to see the florist and sorted all the table decorations, bouquets etc. It all looks lovely - really warm ivory roses and wine coloured gerberas is basically the theme.
Then the BMs had a fitting and all look beautiful!! So pleased with the way the dresses turned out. I had my first fitting on sat and love the dress. I have been having doubts recently coz its been so long since I ordered it and i tried on in white but ordered in ivory. Its a maggie and its perfect!!
we also did lots of other little jobs this weekend and have been having lots of replies which is lovely!! Also we had decided not to do any form of gift list coz we felt too cheeky but so many people have asked us and said that they dont want to give us money that we decided to set up a john lewis gift list and then give details to those who have asked and our "priority items" have alreadt gone and its only been up two days!! I cant believe how generous people are
All this may just seem like par for the course but for me its great - at the end of last year i was made redundant and we thought we were going to have to postpone. i then found a new job which i absolutley hate (but its paying the bills so i cant complain) but it has forced my hand and made me do something i have always wanted to do but never thought was possible - become a teacher. so i am starting a PGCE in september and CANNOT WAIT.
I guess apart from general giddiness about wedding preps i am so relieved that i dont have to do this cruddy job for much longer.
'tis scary though that this time next year i am going to have a different name, be 30 and be a teacher!! Woo hoo!!
so for anyone out they having a hard time at the moment - keep your chin up - things will come good in the end!!!!!!! :-)
