Well supposed to be today but seen as we are snot filled lurgy house atm cancelled. Was also a champagne and canapee invite I got through post 
never mind lol. Gonna rearrage to see next week - hopefully 25th wont be filled as Im getting quite set on that hall Cath, shouldnt really as I havent seen it yet!
Beginning to think get married in church would have been easier but then maybe it'd be 5x worse cos then id have a whole host of places just to have the reception
Those flower balls are growing on me in the night, geek alert coming .... alot of the planets are greeny colours bar hoth, tatooine and mustafar but i could just use the green planets as table names and have my teals, green theme as a multicoloured, swirly ball - i.e a planet, im also trying to think about how to make name tags as 'boarding' passes as if the people are taking a shuttle to that planets table. .... geek moment over!! I know some venues dont allow candles.
Im on the lookout for a suitcase for the cards ... as we are asking for money for the honeymoon i think it would be fitting and a good storage box for wedding memorabilia.

I hope so, but which half lol!
Currently talking the business with co-ordinator at Drayton Manor (theme park), looked into alton towers but they want 50% deposit which is a little unrealistic atm. Trying to ask around to see if anyone else married there as piccies little hard to come by of actual weddings there ....
That hall is booked for 25th too cath - must be an omen!

Venue searching is mad!!!!! I didnt realise it was this bad lol!
Anyway waiting for one to ring me back (in meeting) local manor have deal on atm knocking 2.5k off price for 2013 so makes it a little more towards our price
just hoping they have one of the dates free we'd like. Hopefully visit on sunday (mothers day!)
Keep everything crossed!!

^^Yeah looked at alton towers for wedding venue, and drayton manor but even though alton is in price range they want 50% deposit which is a little steep atm.... Drayton is serious contender though , steve is a little unsure about getting hitched in a theme park but i keep telling him its not IN the theme park. we'll see just opening up EVERY possibility seen as dates are going like hot cakes atm

That definately is steep! Is there no way you could barter with them like come to an agreement of paying a certain amount a month. That would be amazing to have the venue in a theme park

Went to Staffords brand new registry office yesterday to get info - it recently moved to this big new building and my god its posh - i know where my taxes have gone 
im quite liking the idea of having it there and then going onto a recption although steve has put his foot down and said no. Hes decided he likes this other venue even if date not available, so i think May the 4th is no more but May 11th maybe lol! ... or July 6th ... cant decide!
May 11th not sure as I have two sets of aunts and uncles who married May 10th so little unsure about 3 wedding anniversaries sooo close lol! July 6th has nice ring of the 6th of the 7th but then its quite a move in dates from May but gives us 2 more months to save, perhaps better months for honeymoon as then the honeymoon would incorporate my birthday (money saving for steve) I cant chosse june as cousins wedding followed by Mattys birthday - want a bit of a gap.
Anyway current venue steve loves and Im warming too, only reason i'm a little sceptical is its a little bit more than I was willing to pay (1k) more but he says we can take the extra from the 'roof fund' (We are having new roof on house next autumn) :/ The venue is knocking 2.5k off the price so not bad
would have to find a bridal suite for night as cant stay there as would guests ...
