2014 Brides-to-Be Buddies!

[LittleLady04]

Hi Ladies :wave:

I'm getting married on 30th August this year. We will have been together for 10 years the day before the wedding.

We are inviting 70-80 people to the service and meal. And an extra 40 people in the evening.

Welcome, LittleLady04! :wave: Congratulations!

You are having a big one! Where is your venue?

My Bday is Aug 31st!

Hi LillyTame :wave:

We're having the reception at a local hotel called The Royal Hotel. Yeah, I suppose our guest list is quite large, it was meant to be a small amount of guests to the service and meal but the list just kept getting bigger.

Boy, do I know how it is with that ever growing list!

Creative cake! Do you normally do a lot of baking? Will you try a couple times ahead of time? Do you have a back up plan? I ask this as someone that sucks at baking!

Hi, FirstBean! Congratulations! Me and you are the only December brides so far! What are your colors? We are going with Silver and Royal Blue.

That gives me an idea...ladies, give me your colors and I'll try to incorporate it into your name on our list. Note which one is the main color.

Hi, Kizzy454! :wave: Great colors! I've always liked red but not for myself! It's such a bold and beautiful color...I just can't pull it off! lol

Our colours are mint and gold. And littlelady04 we're getting married a few days after our anniversary. Thought it would make it easier for OH to remember lol x

Im rubbish at baking but H2B is an amazing baker. I took a cake decorating course in september and we have done a few cakes, him baking, me decorating and appear to be a good team. We will definitely be having a few practice runs with this one before the big day!
p.s Our colour is orange!

I'm getting married on 21st June and can't wait either!

 

[Abblebubba]

Congratulations, Abblebubba

Looks like we are going to have lots of July weddings!

So your DIY cake...does that mean you are going to do the baking too?

I want to do the 2 tiers and then cupcakes type cake...anyone else doing cupcakes or something non-conventional?

Ladies, feel free to share before and after pics here! I would love to see some dresses!

Hey! I feel a fraud now Lol
I'm planning on getting the basic white iced cakes from marks and Spencer and then I'm going to be decorating them as a cake is a cake at the end of the day and once it's got the cake topper on and decorations I'm getting from ebay it will look like any other cake decorated that you'd be charged hundreds for hehe

My main colours are baby pink and silver

Very pretty, I don't think I've seen those colors together. No mint in the options so I went with a "pale green"

Awesome! A cake decorating course sounds like fun. I just don't know if I have the patience! I think if I made one mistake I'd beat myself up lol

Haha, I don't think it matters HOW you do it, as long as you make it your own!

I wanted to do a custom cake topper but OH thinks its tacky He also thinks cupcakes are tacky but I really wanted that so I pushed harder for that lol

chysantheMUM, I don't have a date for you, just June. Sorry if I missed it somewhere.

Loving all the colors, ladies!

So who's doing a white dress? Who is doing other or accents on dress?

I'm doing a white dress with royal blue bouquet and fascinator on my veil. Well, this is what I'm planning as of right now. Seeing as how I'm not picking a dress for another 4-5 months, I could fall in love with something in color.

 

[kmbabycrazy]

My dress is white but has a gold band around the waist the pic is in my wedding jounal and the link is in my sig if anyone wants to look it's one of the most recent posts x

 

[FirstBean]

My colour is Tiffany blue and having ivory aswell

 

[kmbabycrazy]

[30mummyof1]

My dress is ivory with sparkles, although probably looks more white than i would have pictured ivory to be, if that makes sense!
I need to get a veil and tiara/headband sorted next.
