    Hi Hely,

    We're Sept 18th, and it's all getting a bit real now isn't it?!

    I'm loving getting the RSVP's back at the moment.

    The next big thing is we have our venue meeting and menu tasting in a couple of weeks- can't wait for that (and the wine!)

    My dress is all done and hanging up at the in-laws, BM's dresses are finished, and their accessories. My jewellery and ring sorted. Hair trial needs booking (might do that today- wooo!)

    Just his suits really, and that's not my department. Just might have to do a bit of encouraging so it's not done the day before!

    We finialised everything and paid the registrar last week - I must get my passport form signed, perhaps I will phone them about that today too.

    Honeymoon shopping is fun isn't it? I'm trying SO hard not to spend any more money! Lovely dresses in Coast, my "big" BM dresses are from there.

    How's everyone else doing?

    Regarding sorting passport (have just done this myself), you need the normal form for renewing an adult passport (you can request one from the passport website) and form PD2 which needs to be signed by the registrar (you can print this form out from the website). You then fill out the normal form in your married name and send it all off iwth your current passport. You also have to pay £72 and have a very miserable looking picture (all due to stupid facial recognition software not working if you are smiling apparently).

    WEES about the passport. You can do it from 3 months before. Here you go: https://www.gov.uk/changing-passport-information

    Sage green prom style. They only has 14s left and my BM's are both size 10, so we've had them altered now and they look LOVELY. I was beggining to fall out with them cos the colour is so hard to match, and they hung off them in a very unflattering way - but I've fallen in love all over again now they fit properly! This pic looks nothing like the colour IRL.

    And my little ones have:

    with a green ribbon added. I keep cursing everytime BHS reduce them!!
