67Anyone watch it last night? Thoughts...?
So I haven't done a planning or flash thread yet, and as I now have a month to go (give or take a few days!), I thought I may as well So, firstly, our venue - the Famous Blacksmiths Shop at Gretna...
Thought people might like to see this. I would obviously never normally post pics of a friend's wedding, but this one made the Liverpool Echo and Daily Mail! She is a circus performer and children's...
So I only got my dress last week and when I tried it on for my mother today she said "it's a close fit, you need to lose some weight!" Unfortunately she's right. I had tried it on myself and was...
So yesterday my dressmaker sent me the first pic of my dress! It looks a bit odd cos her mannequin is a size 10 and I'm an 18, but still, very exciting.
So, some of you probably know that the government are changing the way people register to vote. I got a letter in the post asking me to register, which I went online and did that same day. H2B didn't...
I just saw this on Notonthehighstreet and bought it immediately!
So last Friday I went to meet an old friend of mine for a drink. This friend and I met online (on a music forum) in 2005, many years before my H2B and I were a thing. We live at opposite ends of the...
So I'm wondering how other people experience/cope with PMT? By which I mean emotional issues rather than physical pain. Mine is terrible, lasting between three days and a week, I am a complete...
So how pretty is this? I LOVE it.
My new walking stick arrived today! Here's a picture of it. It's pretty and light and fits in my bag, and I know I'll only need it now and then. But I still feel like an old woman. I kind of feel like...
Okay, so I know favours have been discussed a LOT here. I have read through a few recent threads on the topic, and I know some people like them and some don't, etc. However. For those who don't know,...
Yay! My dress has been up in the air for so long that I'm starting to feel like I would NEVER AGAIN buy anything concrete for our wedding (clearly not true as I still need to get bouquet and...
So I was thinking about all the stuff I didn't know about before becoming engaged, or more specifically, before joining Hitched. This probably applies to Pinterest and Etsy too. Here are mine: Flip...
I'm searching at the moment for lace for my dress. Can anyone recommend any fabric shops in the North West area? I don't sew, so I don't know where to look. I already looked in Abakhan's in...
I've just had a customer (female) who called me "hun" throughout the call. I hate this (also "love", "duck", "dear" etc) with a passion. It's over-familiar, patronising and demeaning. When men do it...
So. For my wedding I am going for an early 60s vibe and I'd like to wear a typical 60s style shift dress. Here is a perfect example of the shape I'm looking for: However, can I find the sort of thing...
I am planning to convert a pair of clip-on earrings to pierced (after I wore them one day and my ears hurt for four days afterwards). I have bought a pack of the post back things, however not sure...
Can anyone who's having/had a photo charm in their bouquet please post where they got/are getting them from? I've tried a forum search in case this has been covered recently, but searching for a two...
I see that even though the Mumdrum is still hosted on a separate site, the topic names are now visible in the forum overview where they weren't before. Is there a reason for this? Some people find it...
I've just told a bloke five separate times, during a pretty short conversation, what the booking fee was. I quoted it separately, broke it down, and then quoted the total price per ticket. (By law, we...
So, my parents don't yet know they are invited to our wedding - we originally planned to elope, but changed our minds. We're giving them the invitation this weekend. It suddenly occured to me...
So I, like many of us, have been trying to lose weight for my wedding and feeling quite stressed about it! This article is really enjoyable and made me feel a lot better about things:...
So there is a thread on the wonderful (albeit very snarky) getoffmyinternets.net at the moment discussing the worst or most overdone wedding trends. Here are some of the things that have made the list...
So since I decided to do my own makeup for my wedding I've been carefully considering which products to use. I am almost 40 and my routine needs a good overhaul as it is, so this is an investment as...
So following the two HIMYM threads, I thought it might be nice to have a more general TV discussion thread. What do you watch, what shows do you want to try that you haven't yet, what do you hate and...
So one of H2B's aunts is a known over-sharer on facebook. H2B's mum had a heart attack a couple weeks ago and his aunt was immediately on there broadcasting it to anyone who would give her attention....
So I bought this yesterday: If anyone lives anywhere near The Works bookstore, it was £6.99! It's marked £49 on the inside cover and it's £38 on amazon. It is AMAZING. Huge and really thick, and so...
So, this occured to me suddenly last week. What if I get my period the day before, or even worse of, the wedding?! OH thought I was just referring to the issues it might cause on the wedding night...
So my H2B is a DJ and has done a few weddings for people he knows. He told me today that a friend has passed his name onto someone looking for a wedding DJ and when I asked if he thought he'd do it,...
So, a fair few of you probably know by now that H2B and I are eloping. We originally wanted to go to Vegas and when that wasn't financially viable, we settled on Gretna Green. After the initial...
I'm not trying to stalk you all just nosey. I'm a member, moderator and sound clipper at chrismoyles.net. I was invited by the producer to the live goodbye show in Sep 2012 and was mentioned on the...
