My mum is marrying my wonderful step-father next Friday - very, very happy about this. (Already refer to him as step-dad - they have been together 15 years.)
They are referring to it as a technical adjustment - so it's not all romantic or anything! It's just going to be the 2 of them, me, DP, DD, my sister, step-brother and step-sister and my mums youngest, closest brother and his lovely wife.
We're doing the registry thing and then going to F&M for tea. Would be home by 7pm.
I asked my mum what her plans where that night and she said that my DD would be ready for bed so we'll just all go home and have a cup of tea.
I thought I'd treat them to a night in a hotel in London. I thought the Charlotte Street Hotel of Blakes?
I'm also going to do it as a surprise. Nick a pair of her knickers & his pants (!), and get them a toothbrush and a few of the overnight essentials and then just hand them over at the end and say right, here's the address of where you're staying tonight.
So a) what do you think and b) any other suggestions on where I should book them into?
I can't stretch to more than £250 for the room for a night.
Step-father likes v modern, Mum likes places like the Lanesborough and the Bath Spa Hotel etc etc
It's for next Friday and want it to be London as that's where we'll be already.
