Just found out that Dps doesnt want a registery office wedding - eek!!

[biglips]

as im too nervous to have a big white wedding as i used to do bridal modelling for my mum and it was so nerve wracking.. i was nicknamed "the blushing bride" as i was sso nervous... can you imagine me on my wedding day with LOADS of people in there as poss i faint

no i dont think so!

Can you not to a civial ceramony somewhere but make it low key. So as close to the registry office for you, but not for dp?

Does he actually want a church wedding - or would he be happy with a civil ceremony as long as it wasn't in a registry office? Hotels and venues of all descriptions do nice weddings now.

Do tell dp how you feel about this; you've got solid experience to back it up, it's not just pre-wedding nerves.

oh thats right as you can can married anywhere (if thats poss?)..i wouldnt mind getting married in a castle (but a very small castle -he he!!)

I had a small (ish) civil wedding in a beautiful hotel. Really nice and didn't feel nervous at all, though I did expect to.

You can get married anywhere that holds a licence. Most big/nice hotels/castles/golf clubs etc have wedding licences

I got married in a lovely country hotel, only about 40people for the ceromony, invited everyone else for the night.

bl. didnt know u were thinking of getting married

biglips, do as I did and have a really small wedding - we had about 10 people to the actual wedding itself, (and back to our house for lunch), then we had lots of people for the party in the evening.

I felt that getting married was such an intimate thing to do, I basically only wanted our parents, siblings their partners, and my best two friends there.

Worked out fine (and it was weird getting married in front of ANYONE, actually!)

joec- oh yeah... just gonna wait till the right time but not the mo as dp is my Fiance (we got engaged in may04)

hmmm ill have a thinbk about it Hasf as i either be a runaway bride/ blushing bride or a fainted bride!!

im in liverpool

sorry not hasf - hausfrau !

BUT that castle in Cardiff looks fabulous!!

Oh go for a romatic setting and blush away.

BL - If I was doing it all again, I'd definately love to be married there - it's looks like a fairy castle, go on.... book it!!!

hausfrau, i live quite near to castell coch. i love it too, it really is exacty how i imagine a fairytale castle to be, i think it would be perfect....[dreamy face emoticon]

On the other side of Newport, very very small village in the valleys. I live on the boundaries of a country park so have amazing views too. (i'm waiting for all the daffs at the moment!) I grew up near Liverpool tho so I really appreciate the mountains as they're a bit thin on the ground oop north

Sounds like you miss it Hausfrau?

poor you hausfrau Sending you big welsh hug!
where do you live now?
