Who's with me? So excited!!

[JimmyPestoJunior]

Me! I'm getting married on the 21st. It seems so close all of a sudden. I really need to go have a another dress fitting but have a horrible feeling that I have put weight on over the holidays!

[ZiggyForever]

Me too

29th. And I have the same fitting-into-dress issue after a boozy summer . . . diet as of Monday!

[chamenanged30]

7th oct for me! Third fitting is next week. I hope it fits!

[JimmyPestoJunior]

I'm glad it's not just me in the dress fitting panic! I've been to the gym every day this week in an effort to make the my dress fit. I don't suppose the three glasses of wine I've had tonight are going to help though...

[chamenanged30]

Let's see your dresses!!

[chamenanged30]

This is mine

[ZiggyForever]

That is an absolute stunner of a dress, I love it!

Here's mine (if I can squeeze into it) . . .

[chamenanged30]

Gorgeous!

[JimmyPestoJunior]

Your dresses are beautiful! This is not my exact dress but it's the closest I could find online. I also have one of those little back to front lace jackets to wear with it to add a more detail around the shoulders and 3/4 length sleeves.

Me! I am on the 21st, church followed by afternoon high tea and evening bbq with band. Silver and pink with burgundy theme, medically themed sweet table and cocktail bar.

That is it in a nutshell!

[JimmyPestoJunior]

What's a medically themed sweet table, @ChimpyChops? Sounds interesting!

I have been abroad for a few days and managed to get bikini strap marks on my shoulders despite trying desperately to avoid them. I hope they fade a lot by the wedding as they really won't go with my off the shoulder dress!

[ChimpyChops]

He is a paramedic and I am a health care assistant, I was against having a sweet table but once I saw the idea I had to do it.
So we have urine sample pots filled with yellow sherbet, stool sample pots with chocolate raisins inside, strawberry laces in a pot signed blocked arteries, we have those cardboard vomit bowls with packets of haribo and love hearts, refreshers etc, I have bought plastic shot glasses as pill cups and we are putting m&ms in those, cotton wool balls which are big marshmellows, medical gloves filled with popcorn and tied.
We also have the little pots they fill with ear syringing waste with our glow sticks!

[ChimpyChops]

Hope they fade! I have spent summer in a cardigan as I am not comfortable in strapless tops and didn't want half pink arms! lol.

What are you all doing for entertainment?

Daytime: caricaturist
Evening: DJ, photo booth, sweets bar with servers.

I'm worried the daytime is a bit empty.

20 days to go...7th oct

[JiminnyCricket]

I@m now getting married on the 29th Oct.. originally was getting married in April but my future FiL is terminally ill so we've moved it forward a lot. I've got 6 weeks to cancel one wedding and plan another from scratch

Luckily I already have my dress and our venue decorators are free on our new date!
Argh!

[gttia]

What are all putting as your table decorations? There's only 18 of us and I'm really struggling!

[JimmyPestoJunior]
