So my weddingy plans for today are ....
Wait for Evie to go down for her nap
Change the table plan
Start adjusting Evie's dress.. luckily I think it just needs the straps shortening as the front of dress comes down to just under her lil boobies
Tonight, Nikkinoonoo is coming over so we'll try Jessica's dress on her and see what adjustments (if any) are needed. Also dying Nik's hair
Monday - Out shopping with Nik to get her a nice pair of shoes and bag to go with her gorgeous frock for the wedding
Tuesday - Going to the bridal shop of the lady I bought my dress from. She'll give me some tips on doing up the dress to reduce the back fat and also get the bag of spare beads because there are some loose and missing ones on the dress. I'll be sewing them back on myself next week
Wednesday - Meeting with the Registrar.. we'll pay the money and chat weddings and vows etc
Thursday or Friday - Go down to the venue and pay off the remaining balance
At least that way we can relax and know that any money that gets saved in the next few weeks is a bonus

Thanks ladies I love 'em! The one thing that I'm going to change is the tie up bit at the front.. it's done out of the same fluffy wool and I can see it being a pain! So I will cut that off and use some ivory ribbon that I have
It's prompted me to now look at boleros/shrugs for Elisha too in ivory.. she didnt want one but I think with the weather being such a mixed bag lately, it's best to get one just in case... so I've found one that she'll be able to use again if she wants to and it's cheap too
I'm looking at getting one for myself too, maybe a long sleeve lace one.. not sure yet tho

Well, Jess tried her dress on tonight and it fits pretty well We were worried that it would be too small across the belly but it actually seemed ok! The alterations are need in the back of the dress where it kind of comes out like a basketball hoop, so I'll probably put in a couple of little darts to pull it in a bit. I've done the alterations on Evie's dress but it's still a wee bit big across the chest and under the arms so I think again, a couple of little darts and it'll be fine
They both looked gorgeous in their little boleros too! They're quite heavy! So at least they'll be warm if the good old British weather continues to be so temperamental
Dyed Nik's hair, looks gorgeous of course and chatted loads about the wedding and when her reading will fit into the schedule. 28 days left now and 1 week till my Hen Night. It's all approaching so fast!
