Ok Ann lets see if i can help Chelsea fulham and wimbledon are VERY nice.Ive rung pauls dad and he has said Wimbledon at the bottom of the hill !!!! has lovely restuarants,shops and parks,when we asked about Battersea he was like ummmm wimbledon.There are areas to avoid Brixham,Stretham Lewersham and in the north of London Tottenham,Arsenal etc.How about Bromley a little out but not far on the train.Pauls dad has friends in Claygate and its very nice.I would suggest googling rightmove.com and seeing what is for sale and the prices of property thats always a good bases of what the area is like.If you need anymore help and advice im here.Im only an hour away from the city and dont get there to often but i will try and help as best i can

Girls its a man thing as i write this the gran prix is on.Weve been out today to a car show yep a classic car show,he dropped me home and then went to pick his son up.Weve taped the gran prix and as he dropped me off he said dont watch the gran prix cos ill want to rewind it when i get in.Soooooooooo i wait an hour and a half and guess what less than half way in hes knocking out zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzs.Now do i stay still and quiet watch it to the end and wipe it off haha what do you think girls?

welcome to the forum im sure you will find the forum useful and italy ive always wanted to go there x

fantastic, you both look so happy and your best man looks like a real entertainer.whos the designer of your dress i love the beading on the waist.

oh mods im such a div please move this post to the correct area sorrryyyyyyyyyy

At last we have reached a decision we are going to get married in april 2011. Its so far away but we really need that time to save!!!!!! What we are planning is flying to LA spending three nites four days there visiting mickey and friends and doing the hollywood things and then flying to maui.We have found the accomodation a private condo that sherry posted and i fell in love with.I have emailed a wedding coordinator who is happy to reserve a spot for us and we can move it if we need to.We are keeping it simple just the two of us and intend on hiring a convertable hopefully white so we can use it as our wedding car.We plan on spending a week on maui transfering back to LA and booking into a disney hotel for a couple of days before flying back to London.We intend on doing a garden party /bbq for our friends and children hence our decision to get married in April so we can party in the sunshine about one month after we return.IM SO HAPPY WE FINALLY MADE A DECISION.we had spent the last year feeling guilty,wondering how we could get married in 2010 and toying with doing a wedding at home which we didnt want.We took a deep breath realized that 2010 was gunna be tight and im now so happy we didnt comprimise with our wedding day.We dont know anyone who has holidayed in Hawaii let alone got married there and now were going.My mind is working overtime about all the details.Im so HAPPPPYYYYYYY

Michelle your wedding looked wonderful every detail, the favours table settings to your very sweet flower girls.I loved the tin bath with the rose petals.And of course you look a very happy couple x

hi,if you saw my review of the weddings i saw at the bahia principie on my list of dos i wrote i would have parasols for all the girls.So in my opinion i WOULD loose the flowers and bring in the parasolsx hope that helps

both dresses are very pretty and either one will make a perfect wedding gown for you.All i would say is i think a tiara would work with the first dress and just flowers in your hair for the second.What colour bead work does the first dress have silver and gold?.You will/do look in both which one are you most drawn to?

oh my gosh you are a busy lady.Dont do it!!! have a leaving do,like you said where people can turn up and wish you well.Im sure they would appreciate a look at the photos so have some photos and thats it.Im sure you will enjoy the event far more it also means the people that mean the most to you both will most probably be there as apposed to people feeling they cant get out of it because you sent an invite.Keep it casual like were leaving the country if you can make it join us for a farwell drink.One last piece of advise find time to relax xxx

so glad it worked out for you im thinking you were happy with the finished product.sllep soundly tonite xx

Ok girls i managed to get my future husband back on the where shall we get married question!!! we keep flippin from just the two of us to the whole family.We were thinking of doing a few days in LA then flying to Hawaii and getting married on the beach then flying home.However we didnt realize that the flight from LA to maui is five hours hence the cost of about £400 each on top of the flight to LA which is about the same.On top of that we would have accomodation to pay for in Hawaii ive found a condo suggested by another bdw member and of course i would need to find accomodation in LA.On top i have to find a wedding package.Ive seen wedding companys in orlando that offer set ups very similar to what you would have in Hawaii and wonder if you girls would have any ideas of where we could get married on the beach,with very few onlookers and a place to eat etc.So i guess what im saying is could we get married in LA without spending as much money as we would if we were doing the hawaii wedding.Im thinking we can fly to LA for about £450.How much would a beach wedding cost, and accomodation in LA. THANKS IN ADVANCE MARIA XX

This may be a strange question but do you have anything to look forward too you spent many months planning your wedding setting up your home with your wedding gifts and showing everyone your wedding pics.Maybe now everything has gone flat.You sound to me like you have post wedding blues thats why everyone says oh youll be having a baby soon you get to start the planning again!!!! so beware that one hahah.What is your hubby saying to you maybe you could plan something a break away in a few months.I would try that first before going down the anti depressant route cos you cant just come off of them.Hope this is just a blip and you soon feel yourself once more xxx

Just buy it its fantastic it made me gasp i would love it.Maybe not as a trash the dress x but treat yourself x

Angela i love the last and the first one x

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR LEGAL DAY.You should try and get a ring as cheaply as you can make that your challenge and have fun with it and you do know we will want pictures.Im sure youll be glad later that you didnt get THE rings until your dw day.I say go with the maxi dress tooo youll wear it loads afterwards and you could because they are so easy to wear get it out every anniversary and it will still fit and hold wonderful memories,just remember the piccies xxx

I think the green would be good but dont spend money on them because its just a small detail that you really dont NEED to be stressing about.I think then maybe the sand colour.Im sure what ever you go with will look fab.Just remembar what all the girls say in there post wedding reviews dont stress about the small things haha everything will be perfect promise xx
