Original Post: Hello ladies! I haven't set the date quite yet, but it will be sometime in 2013 so here we go with a fresh thread. Join me and lets talk bridestuff. I'm so excited.

So far, I am deciding between either the Church at my University in California or one in San Francisco. When I set the date, it will all quickly become clear. I've done a ton of day dreaming so far and written lists and read magazines - that sort of thing. DF and I even watched a Martha Stewart Wedding video together a month or two back. (Heh. I can not recommend the one we saw DF didn't even make it through the whole thing.)

The things I am not looking forward to are finding a dress that looks good on me and all the weight I will have to lose before I even feel comfortable trying. I figure a good first step is to give wedding dress exploraton one more shot to find anything I can imagine myself in on my big day *if* I'm at my present weight. With the pressure off, I actually think I'll be happier and properly motivated to exercise more and eat less.

More things to look forward to!!
Flowers
Jewelry
Shoes
Clutch

I'm asking friends to do the flowers and photography and my mom will be doing my hair. The woman is a professional too! The plan is for my little sister to be Maid of Honor and for OH to have at least a couple of his friends in the bridal party as well. Flower girl and ring bearer remain to be decided. It's hard to say for sure on a lot of things 'till we've set the date and the wheels are truly in motion.

Oh, was thinking about having ice cream outside the church, after the ceremony. Now that coupled with some prior weightloss and we are golden lol. Tell me everything there is to know about your wedding plans.

...

Update: We've set the date!!!!!!!!!
January 18th, 2014 in San Francisco, California

Heeeyyyy ill join you
We are getting married 15th June 2013!
I've got a 19 month old and I'm due baby number 2 end of January so I am well on my way with sorting everything out as I'm trying to get as much as I can out of the way so I don't have to do it with 2 babies

The next thing on my list is sorting the flowers which I'm going to do on Saturday

Everything's all in my journal if you want to have a look, you should deffo start one

Lauren, you lucky ducky! You will have your babies there on your big day. Ooooh, grace this thread with a photograph of Lauren's Wedding themed flowers please! My big plan is to start a journal the day I make the date. Off to join your journal now. I think your date sounds beautiful. Yes, that's right, just the date is is pretty enough. My birthday is June 1, so I will try to make our Wedding date at least a month removed.

hi, i'll join too!
we get married 6th April 2013 not long to go now!
got quite alot sorted now(made my invites last nite ) still got a few bits to do, favours, suits for the groom and best man, oh...and i need a new dress - bought it in my wisdom last summer thinking "ah got loads of time to lose weight and slim in to it" but i still haven't managed it! lol
cant wait now seems real now that its getting close!

Oo can I join

I'm getting married 27th April 2013, so only a little over 5months to go!
We're getting married in a church, the one LO was christened in, it's the oldest church in town and very pretty. Then having a very relaxed affair afterwards. Service isn't until 4pm so then it's straight on to the evenin do where there will be a hot buffet for everyone, no arranged table plans or anything just sit where you fancy. There will be a top table in place but mainly just as a focal point as with no sit down meal it won't really be needed as such.

Have booked DJ and the lighting effects for the room and my dad ha treat me to a starlit white Dancefloor which I am beyond excited about, it looks so pretty!

Just booked photographer yesterday too


Next on my list is invites!

Ooh i will get in on the festivities too then!

Im getting married on the 25th of May so 6 months to go! So far i have ordered my dress which my mum is kindly paying for, i have booked the reception venue and the church, i managed to get a great bargain on ebay for the adult bridesmaid dresses 30 quid each!, i have booked the florist although i need to lower the price somehow because 650 pounds on flowers that will die is not the way i want to go!

I am currently making my wedding invitations, so they should be ready to go in january. I just need to sort out the flowers girls dresses closer to the time and sort out the wedding cars

I'm joining too Our date is 5th October 2013 a year to the day we got engaged I think I may start a journal.. I love reading all your journals

Welcome, new ladies, I've updated the first page with our list of dates.

I took my mom to see the church and a possible spot for the reception yesterday and it was magical - a perfect day!

Hi!
I'm Alice and I'll be getting married on 16th Feb 2013. Very close now!!

Welcome Alice, I've added you!
