I have the same problem! My dad isnt alive either, my cousin (whos is like my brother to me) is going to Afgan next week and will be away until after the wedding he is the only other person I would have asked I've decided to walk on my own despite my mum offering to walk down with me.

 6 months and 20 days until we leave, cant believe im now in the 6 months time area!! woo hoo!! Im finding it sooo hard to think of a present for MIL & MOB. My FI's mum is old fashioned wears alot of expensive gold jewelery (already purchased a frame for our wedding pic so thats a no) my mum is the total opposite and modern would probably like jewelery but then do the gifts have to be similar?  My friend keeps warning me to get on with the DIY stuff as she said the time will fly by now and then i'll be rushing but I cant get motivated with wedding stuff at the moment... Baring in mind I purchased my fans around feb time and have only done 3 LOL Â
