Just a quick tip hun, you can't 'just have a look' in Berketex. They are totally up themselves and won't let you look even at the rails without an appointment. Most bridal shops do sell off their last seasons styles but they will only have a limited stock and every dress will usually only be in one size.

Congratulations on setting the date, you have a long time to prepare x

wannabslim · 1st July, 2008

yep, a year and 3 months to plan it. Will need it though as am at University full-time and working part-time!! With a 20,000 dissertation to write too I really won't have much spare time til the summer, so plan to do most of the planning then!

What are you studying, wannab? I've just finished my masters in socil policy and hoping to start a PhD in social anthropology in October (and planning a wedding too - aren't we gluttons for punishment!).

wannabslim · 2nd July, 2008

**Eclipse** · 7th July, 2008

Just caught up with this thread. Congratulations hun x x x

wannabslim · 10th July, 2008

Thanks everyone. Here's a little update...

The date has changed (and is now final) to the Saturday 26th September, 2009. So a week earlier than planned. This is due to us wanting to use a particular caterers who only had this day free. The mgr really appreciated we had arranged our day around them and I get the impression that we will get extra special service as a result of this (from something she said)!!

We are having a church ceremony, followed by a wedding breakfast in the church hall (we are having venue dresssers come in and do it up even tho its quite a nice room and has a new carpet going in this summer), then an evening 'party' type reception in a room we have hired less than half a mile away... thinking that ppl can walk it if its nice or even get taxis/drive if need be. Plus the eve part is in the middle of our little town so if they want to stay there is a hotel right over the road... convenient methinks!!

So am quite excited now all the venues/rooms/service is booked, as are the caterers. All I need now is a stylist for the day, a baker for the cake and a florist, I have enquired about a car I like, and all the people provisions are taken care of! Just the little (well, littler) things to think about then which can be done much nearer the time!

I am a good events organiser so hopefully this won't be too difficult!

oh my god!! *runs around in circles in panic again!!*

i'm getting married on the 18th july 2009 and have so far booked the venue for the ceremony dinner and evening do. but since they are all in the same building that wasn't hard. i have a choice of five caterers that are allowed to serve you there so hopefully one of them will be available but i'm ringing them next week. as for everything else, not a clue!! am currently stressing about where to have our wedding night. am going around york on monday to find somewhere and have a look around but you have to stay two nights at all the nice hotels in york if you stay on a saturday.. so twice as expensive. still, it's only once

as for honeymoon, not a clue. flowers, transport, cake, dress, bridesmaids, photographer can wait. photographer and flowers next on the list. i figured the rest can wait a bit. ooooooooooooh panic!!
