this morning i have arranged final meetings with florist & reception venue and also spoken to vicar to confirm rehearsal time so think thats all my phonecalls for the day sorted!

This afternoon I need to complete the order of service so future hubby can print them out! I got the paper yesterday so just need to finish the design.

I am not feeling too nervous just yet ..... more stressed! But I have set a deadline that I want everything sorted by end of saturday! (wedding related anyway), so the week leading up to the wedding is only honeymoon related & packing yay, Thats when I think the nerves really will kick in!

I'm so excited for you, that's a really gd idea setting the deadlines and keeping on top of everything minimise stress as much as you can, really not long now! xx

 

[Kimboowee]

Ooooo how exciting!
I think I should start a wedding journal right now to get myself organised lol. I kinda of hoping it will come together cos im crap at planning!

ood idea to have the week before free, that way if anything needs doing you have plenty of free time!
Where are you going on your honeymoon? x

 

[princess_bump]

[buttonnose82]

Pretty easy day today for you hun, don't over do it

We were thinking of putting Jessie in a cattery when we go but think that my sister is going to come up and feed her for us (she's an indoor cat) xx

 

[Vici]

OMG you must be sooo excited xxx

To be honest i am so worried about putting them into one, they are rescue cats but were abused pretty badly, as a result they take a lot of time to trust people, but since we have moved we have noone that can pop in and check on them, I know they will be fine in a cattery as they will have eachother, but, well just makes me a little sad
