i have found the photographer i want, her stuff is amazing. but of course no prices on the website. i've had to request them and you can guarantee that means she costs the earth... check her out

Looks good. I guess you just have to wait for the costings now! x

Congratulations wannabslim, and abz, on both your upcoming weddings!! Must be so exciting, especially if you're the type of person who likes organising things...it's the ultimate thing to have to plan! Must get abit stressful at times, but sounds like you're pretty organised already wannabslim, so should be a breeze!

wannabslim · 10th July, 2008

Lol yeah I have organised a few big events in the past- am trained in PR and have experience of events management through that so it doesn't phase me.. luckily I made all my mistakes through other events so I won't make them on my own!!!

hehe!! Like always get everything in writing, with no exceptions, no matter how big or small the agreement!

abz · 10th July, 2008

i'm thinking of hiring you to organise mine :P

You are so organised! And you are absolutely right about getting everything in writing and always always keep in touch with them right up til the day.

Good luck to both of you with your plans x

It is really scary how organised you are - I got engaged on Xmas morning last yr (been with my bf for 7 1/2 yrs so about time) we're getting married on 5 September 2009 and so far I have only booked the church and checked out some caterers...... think i'd better pull my finger out.

I've found a wedding dress I really want and am going to try on styles on Friday with my Sis, and if the style suits will order the dress I've seen. I've lost 2 stone and got nearly 3 stone to go - I know what you mean about putting added pressure on about buying the dress before getting to goal but I don't want to miss this dress so I'm willing to take the chance!

We're on a really tight budget because we moved into our house last year so money is a bit tight but we're determined to make every penny count (and get as many bargains as poss

). Good luck with getting to your goal and all your plans

Love

Lol yeah maybe you should try and book the key people- its surprising how far in advance some of them get booked up!! But don't panic, plenty of time yet! Just better safe than sorry thats all.

Have spent the weekend buying materials and making our own Save the Date cards. They are stunning! The other alternative was to go with Vistaprint and buy some custom-made postcards to send out. But they were gonna cost £18 plus p&p and VAT so we thought we may as well spend that money on making some really nice ones ourselves... only to find that they are doing an offer today and the postcards would have been free

ahhh well! Thats what you get for being organised! Still, ours are unique and a product of my labour!

If you're lucky I might post a piccie later! xx

Haven't got a final target in mind, but as they asked for one for my ticker, decided to go for 10st 5lb for starters, and then see what happens as I get closer to it!
