wedding car is classic Rolls Royce, a wonderful piece of British history that was owned at one time by the late great actor, Norman Wisdom.

i will post a pic of my dress when i get it home, it still has to be took in and dry cleaned but the women in the shop said i take it back 2 month before the wedding for them to fit it and clean it
 
Aww gorgeous pictures! We have changed all our plans too sinces first thread so may start a new one too :) I love the purple colour, reminds me of chocolate :blush: You have done so much, very organized! :hugs:
 
thanks hun and i no what you mean, cadbury purple :), and i just wanted to make a new one as i have new things to buy and change now like need new invatations x
 
I'm sure i replied to this already! Just before my laptop died haha .. my reply basically said how i hope you didnt lose too much money on the old invitations...so expensive!! We are thinking of just telling people orally :haha:
 
i bought them of ebay think it came to just under 20 so not to bad we have found some new ones 25 personalised and £7 for rsvps x
 
Thats good then! Thats good for 7 pound! That wee flowergirl dress is so cute!! Your wee one looks so excited!!
 
thanks its a shame it wont fit her on the day my aunty is a dress maker so im wondering if maybe she could do something with it
 
Aw thats a shame she looks so cute in it! Yeah i'm sure you can get them made bigger :thumbup: its always difficult buying clothes for kids they grow like nobodys business! :haha: I have four nieces and very close to them all but i cant have so many bridesmaids etc and i can't just chose one or two ....thats my biggest dilema :dohh:
 
I keep looking at everyones photos and journals and i realy want a nice fancy venue instead of the club its not nice inside and i just want better, i no we said a cheap wedding i just dont want mine to look rushed and tacky, i cannot mension it to oh because it was his idea to do it as cheap as we can, so we can afford our own house, am i been unreasonable :cry:
