With less than 3 weeks to go until the wedding and less than 2 weeks until we fly away, and not having been much of a flasher throughout my planning process, I thought I’d do a full on flash! Now, I...
I don't suppose you'd be able to email me your honeymoon spreadsheet? I have piles of stuff all over my spare room and I just don't know where to start! It's hard enough packing for a normal holiday...
I want to supply confetti for our guests, because I don't think they'll think of bringing it out with them, nor know where to go and buy it once they're out there. I can't take real petals into...
Sorry to chase O Beardy One, but I was just wondering if you'd had a chance to look into shipping the cupcake bouquets to me.
I'm home alone this weekend and planning a very self indulgent night of pampering tonight. What can I have for my dinner? I've been extra good on Slimming World this week so I feel like a treat. What...
We have just been given a very generous cheque by Mr Knees' grandad as an early wedding present and have decided that we're going to buy an i-pad to take with us on our travels. I am completely...
Our per head package includes unlimited beer, wine, sparkling wine and soft drinks. We can either supply our own spirits, have our guests pay, or pay ourselves per drink. We thought it'd be cheaper to...
I had an amazing hen weekend this weekend and I'd like to get a present for the two girls who made so much effort in the organising. When I organised my sister's hen last year, she sent me a massive...
You may have seen the news this weekend and seen the floods in West Wales. We'd had horrendous rain for the latter part of last week and a couple of roads had been closed on Friday night, but the...
I had a call from Barclays fraud yesterday after they'd stopped a transaction of £405 going through at John Lewis online from my debit card. They read out five more transactions which had been made on...
I've just remembered OH's niece is 1 next weekend and I don't have a clue what to get her! Any suggestions from anyone? Also, her sister is 2 and a half and can be a little bit of a monster. Would it...
I came off the pill just before Christmas. My cycles pretty much settled straight away into 28 days, almost to the hour! I've just done the maths and it looks like I'll come on during my honeymoon....
We're having a small wedding abroad, then a big party when we get home. When I say big, I mean 300 people. Some of those invited are OH's football mates, some of whom are young lads in their late...
Does anyone know where I could get a bun clip in hair piece? I don't want a ballerina style tight bun, but anything else is fine. One of my BMs is convinced she saw one in Claire's Accessories a while...
I'm preparing welcome bags for our guests who are travelling over from the UK with us. They'll include bottled water/bottle of beer/maps and local guide books/info letter etc. One of the things I want...
We're having two flowergirls at our home wedding - our niece (aged almost 3) and OH's goddaughter (aged 6). I've already chosen these dresses for them, to be ordered a bit closer to the time: Our...
I'm now in my fourth year post qualification. I deal mainly with residential conveyancing, but also deal with some commercial conveyancing, planning matters, land disputes. I hate my job.
OK, so I know I've had my turn with my job, but I'd forgotten about this and I know it's something that people are always intrigued about when I tell them, so ask away!
Has anyone had this done? I'm considering it for the wedding/honeymoon but I don't like the thought of having to leave it long enough to be waxed ? How long did you have to leave it and was it worth...
None of my family or friends know I post on this forum. I tell people I go on a "wedding website" but nobody knows any more. Partly because I like the fact that I can post details of my wedding in...
Does anyone live near here or is anyone familiar with the town? Mr Knees and I are going for a weekend there next weekend. We briefly stopped off there on the way back from a trip to North Wales a...
I know this probably belongs on WP, but I trust my OT buddies' opinions so I thought I'd stick it here instead. As many of you know, we're getting married abroad on 4th August and then our home...
Simple question - which would you prefer to receive out of these two choices: White chocolate mousse with raspberry coulis, in a dark chocolate tear drop Black forest cake - Layers of sponge with...
As we have all seen Flow's marvellous collection, I thought I'd flash some of the shoes that are lying around my office! Today's: Please excuse the unpainted toenails. The first day of peep-toe shoes...
Has anybody done this? For our home reception, we wanted a band who played at my cousin's wedding. They were friends of the groom. I got in touch with my cousin a year before the wedding, asking for...
We're getting married in Australia in August and I'm trying to get together some gifts for my bridesmaids. We're paying for everything that they'll be wearing on the day, but I don't really count that...
I'm (prematurely) planning my packing for our wedding/honeymoon. I don't think I make enough use of my hand luggage allowance. Whatever the length of the flight, I just take a biggish handbag with a...
I bought these journals a few weeks ago and have only just got round to looking at them. Realistically I'm not going to have time to fill them in. They're brand new and have only been opened to look...
We're having two flowergirls at our home service aged 6 and almost 3. I always thought flowergirls scattered petals down the aisle before you walked down, but Mr Knees thinks that's cheesy! The...
Over the past week or so, I've had some tension in my left shoulder. It's definitely something to do with my desk because it completely disappeared over the weekend but has come back again today. I've...
We're getting married in Australia and are arranging activities for our guests throughout the whole wedding weekend, one of which will be the stag/hen parties. I'll be having my main hen do here...
Has anyone come across any of these in any shops recently? We're getting married abroad and Mr Knees, always wanting to be a little bit different, has decided he wants to wear a pale blue suit and...
