This bride is finally becoming organised. I have pretty much got up to date to where I should be at for someone with 21 weeks to go.

This week I met with the florist, June from World of Flowers in Waterloo. I found my dream bouquet on the first page! As my colour theme is a dusky pink and Black (Kind of the Agent Provocateur theme!) I found a vintage pink coloured rose that was beautiful with pearls on the inside. It was beautiful then we decided on the bridesmaids and the centre pieces according. I just love them!!!

Also my stationary samples came from Dragonfly Couture Stationary they are so unique and amazing I am spoilt for choice. One is made out like a cheque book made out to me and Gareth in our colours. I would definitely recommend Ling at Dragonfly for anyone who is looking for something unusual.

I am getting more and more excited now. I have my material to make my bridesmaid dresses also and one of the preggers two has dropped. My Handsome nephew Joseph Paul was born on Feb 20 so as soon as she is ready push the old sister-in-law to get measured.
I feel like its just small bits and bobs left to do now so the stress levels are beginning to lower.
I ummed and ahhhd about favours for ages and after watching Sports Relief (sob sob) I made up my mind that I am definitely making a donation to charity on behalf of guests.
I feel like not only would it make me feel better I am sure my guests would prefer it to something mundane that they will probably forget anyway.

Just to leave on a funny note. My mum is ten times more stressed than me (obviously because it’s at her home) The latest panic is that with the marquee being set up eight days before the event (yes it takes that long to build) and drink being in there the night before maybe a fox or rabbit will get in.
This caused fits of hysteric's around the room. I have heard her worry about some things in my time (she still doesn’t like me to eat an apple in case I choke- I should have a banana instead) but a fox getting in guzzling champagne and eating food that's been the funniest.

I can see it now Crosby Herald........Fat Drunken fox spotted wobbling around Crosby!!!

P.s For the lady who wondered what the dresses the lady who is making mine are like then I have attatched a pic.
Notice the cool bridesmaid bottom left!!
