It's all starting to come together!

Well we ordered our rings on Saturday!!! Quite excited about that, can’t wait for them to come in.

I’ve written most of the invitations and posted the ones that needed posting. That took quite a lot of tip toeing around the family politics as there has been a big fall out between me & one of my cousins. I still want her brother & sister to come so I’ve had to invite their parents, I’m hoping they wont come but I suppose if they do I’ll be having far too good a time on the day to worry and at least I’ve come off looking like the bigger person. Also inviting my Grandma who has dementia and keeping everything crossed she doesn’t get much worse before November. I’m going to see one of my Aunties at the weekend to ask if she’ll look after Grandma on the day as I don’t want her getting all confused and upset and doubt my Mum or I will have enough time to spend with her.

I’ve just got to get Gareth to get in touch with the friends he wants to invite not as we haven’t got a clue where any of them live!!!

Put an RSVP date on of 6th August so they’ve all got plenty of time to get back to me, I’m going to try and take a hard line with those that don’t and just assume that they aren’t coming but I don’t know how well that will go down with Gareth!

Ok still to do:

Find a bridesmaid dress
Find shoes for me & my bridesmaid
Favours
Table cameras
Seating plan
Buy some decent makeup (my friend is doing hair & makeup)
Figure out what I want to do with my hair
Balloons & Decorations
Finalise the menu
Organise thank you gifts
Finalise what flowers I want
Get cakes from M&S and get them decorated
Music for the ceremony & reception
Make a list of everywhere I need to change my name
Sort out someone to cat sit while we’re on honeymoon

I also need to talk to the registry office as I’m really worrying about guests seeing me when I arrive so I want to see if they have any suggestions on that one. I think we probably need to go and meet them anyway as I have some questions about music and vows and stuff.

Keep your fingers crossed for lots of RSVP's, I'll post again when I have an update!
