We've had a bit of a rethink about the ceremony and have been doing some working out of finances....
We're not getting married in a registry office now, we're going to do it at the venue. It works out better (more expensive yes, but better) because my dad has been very ill recently and he and his wife will have driven all the way from Swansea to the hotel the night before, then coming to my place in the morning, then on to the registry office, then back up to the hotel. It's also something we wanted from the outset but it was too expensive (registrar would have cost an extra few hundred pounds) so we settled with the cheaper option of a registry office.
Of course this means that our notice of marraige is null and void now as we want to change the venue so we'll have to go and see about a new one of those, and we'll also have to inform all our daytime guests. Thank goodness we dont have many to inform!!
I also have to inform the hotel that we are actually having the ceremony there after all - a civil wedding levy charge is actually included in our package deal so we'd have had to pay that, regardless of us marrying there or the registry office!
It also means that we wont be getting married as early as we'd thought, it'll probably be around 1pm or 3pm so that means the meal will be later now, which means we dont have to cater for quite as many people for the evening buffet now, so we'll be saving some money on that too... I think in all, it's going to cost us an extra £200 which we can scrape together by then, no problem
I much prefer the thought of getting married in our venue!! I cant wait to get it sorted out now lol!!
Sorry girls, I had to get it out before I burst! I want to get things sorted out before informing all the guests - apart from Nik of course, she'll see this and know
But Nik, you're the first one to know about the changes hehe
xXx
that's brill hun
