What are you doing for your hen??? It's on the weekend of the Royal Wedding isn't it???

Good luck Christa we will be there the same time as you, just changed my date to the 25th Oct x

Good luck with your TA xx Wow we'll be there the same time!!!! How fab is that!!! How are all your arrangements going at the moment? We picked the resort as I fell in love with the gazebo on the beach it looks lovely What made you pick the resort???? Don't know about you but I'm really excited at the moment...... Just sorting out my hen party..... Cannot wait LOL

Yeah we are staying for 2 weeks we are flying from Gatwick on 16th October, getting married on 25th October now, and leaving on the 30th.... Are you staying for 2 weeks???? Mara the wedding co-ordinator seems really good answers my e-mails quite quickly...... Her e-mail is [email protected]. Good luck xx

Nicy - Can't believe how quickly the wedding is coming for you hun xxx Soooo exciting x For my hen we are going to Bristol staying in apartments there and gonna get very drunk LOL, and we are going to dress up as gangsters!!!!! Looks like we are going up in a limo, I've had a quote and it works out about £45 each for the limo company to pick us and drop us back, after working out train fares it seems the better option, so we should have a good laugh in the limo on the way up!!!! Michelle - Good luck with Harrison's braces xxx Can't wait to see your hen pics OMG it is all happening for you girls I've got 26 weeks to go until we fly!!!!! xxx Leanne - Don't think I'm going to do OTT bags as Nicy said so far there is only 9 of us going maybe if a few more were coming I probably would. xx

Nicy - Just seen your hen pics they are fab you look like you had the time of your life!!! Hope mine is as fun as yours looks!!!!.. Hopefully booking mine next week for Sept 3rd.... Michelled - This company Wolfestone do they have a website? We've had two more people book to come with us our friends but they can only come the second week (she is a school teacher) which means I've had to change my wedding date thank god my wedding co-ordinator is really good at replying to my e-mails, looks like we are getting married on the Monday 24th October instead of Friday 21st October, and the photographer has been really accommodating as well ...

We are getting married at 3pm but we are now looking to change our date to the 24th or 25th as we have guests coming out but they can only come out the second week, Mara has said that 24th and 25th is available at 2pm so I am going to change.... You can ask Mara if you can have my 3pm slot!!!!! If you want a later wedding I am going to e-mail her later to confirm that I am going to change my date.....

Nicy - Your hen sounds fab a really good night xx So glad you enjoyed.... I've tried looking on facebook at your pics but it won't let me I've put a friend request to you (hope you don't mind)....x Michelle - Lovely you catching up with an old friend.... Know how you feel about emotional every now and then I get a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes over the wedding xx Went to the x-factor live tour on Sat night (definately gonna go next year) with my little girl, my son, my friend and her daughter and it was amazing.... Natasha in now a huge One Direction fan she was so excited to see them and Matt xx Brought a huge smile to my face when I saw her face when they came on xx

Hi What time are you getting married cos we are getting married on 21st Ocober at the Grand Riviera Princess (same hotel) x

They look fab fab, I think you are creative!!!!!! xx

Michelle - Am really pleased you are on the mend..... So you can also enjoy x

Michelle - Thanks for that it does help x Nicy - Have a wonderful time on your hen........ Can't wait to see the pics x

Michelle - Thanks for the info regarding the wedding certificates now it makes sense x Wow what a wonderful thing your friends did for you xxx Bet it brought a tear xxxx Amurka - I nearly collapsed as well with the cost of the rings.... We got a discount on ours as we were paying there and then but I didn't really shop around....

Michelle - Your future MIL needs help !!!!! Just don't get it xxxxx. Dying to know what happened to you last night LOL x I am reading everyone's post on here about the marriages being legal in Uk and I am getting confused (doesn't take much LOL) After we are married do we get a certifcate???? Do we take that home and have it made legal here? Or do they do it and we get it in six months???? Will get in touch with Thomsons wedding department and see what they say??? Nicy - Have fun on your hen hun xx Lea - Soooo happy your dress is in good luck when you try it on xxxx Mine isn't due in until June......

Michelle - Hope ur dress fitting went well and that you are feeling better xx We have booked the hotel for the night before we fly as we are flying from Gatwick on Sun at 9 in the morning, we are travelling down on the Sat by train and staying over night in a hotel close to the airport so we can relax and enjoy the night before we all fly.... Got a good price £115 for 7 of us so happy happy happy another tick off my list .... Booked to have a look for bridesmaid dresses for Natasha on 20th April .... And Josh (my 14yr old) has said he will give me away so happy happy happy again ..... He said he felt too nervous originally but because he knows Natasha will also with me he wants to do it.

Ohhhh Nicy I could feel every bit of stress in your post hun xxx Really hope u feeling better today... I agree with everyone on here,..... You will look amazing and steve will think so too xxx Definately get your make up and hair done in the hotel so you can enjoy the whole experience.... Enjoy your hen and let your hair down xx Amurka - We got our rings from a jeweller in Swansea called Spencer Morgan (where we got my engagement ring). Don't know about the rest of you girls but I nearly collapsed when I went and priced up rings the cost of gold and platinum has shot up!!!! Will definately post pics when we pic them up should be in next 6-7 weeks can't wait.... Really happy that we have crossed something off the list ....... Lea - For the signing of the papers we are having At Last by Beyonce x

Michelle - Really hope you get well soon hun xxx Amurka - Love the shoes girlie xx Lea - We are using Claudia Rodriguez we are paying $2400 this includes her plus an assistant, 3 hrs coverage, 150 images on dvd of our photos, and over 100 printed photos, it also includes a video package by Cancun wedding Video which is upto 3 hours of video coverage and a master copy on DVD for approx 60 mins. Her website is www.claudiaphoto.com if you want to have a look at her work, she is really good at getting back to you via e-mail as well hope this is of some help xx We got our wedding rings y'day yippppeeeee. I was soooo excited..... Something else off my list xxx We are picking them up in 7 weeks. Calv's fits but mine had to be made smaller, but because there is enough time they are now going to make mine for me....... Can't wait to pick them up xx

Nicy - Your dress and veil look amazing and like Michelle said after a few tequila's, and relaxing your wedding pics will be stunning xxx Also agree with you all doesn't matter how much you spend on the AHR as long as friends and family are there.. x leasexy24 - It was me who posted the stereophonics version it is a lovely version... I loved the Leona Lewis version like you but Calv thought it was too slow and he wanted the Matt Cardle version which I thought was a bit too harsh for a wedding so we compromised on the Stereophonics version which I think is the better one anyway!!!!

Michelle - Songbird by Eva Cassidy is soooo beautiful the words are lovely Thanks Nicy the boxes look lovely are they big enough to put the dresses in????? For our AHR they aren't charging us for the room but the food is about £10 per head and we are looking at about 100-120 people coming, cake is about £200 and the DJ is £300, Crikey just realised it's nearly £2k!!!!!! I thought I was having a bargain!!!!! LOL

Nicy - Your hair looks lovelyxxx Lyndsey - Some people are just sh**t's, hope you are ok hun, xxx Any news on your car?? Michelle - Really hope you start feeling better soon hun xxxx Scarlett looks soooo cute in her dress xxx What site did you all get your wedding boxes from?? They sound fab.... We are flying with Thomsons and I really want to take my dress with me...... We have also started picking our wedding songs so far we like Arioso bach to walk down the aisle, for signing the register I like At last by Beyonce (as we have been together 12 yrs and at last we are getting married lol), for first dance we like First Time by Stereophonics, for walking back up the aisle after we are married we like Somewhere over the rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole don't know if any of you have heard his version but it is fab, we have one more to pick for Natasha to walk down still in discussion with that one..... I haven't pick a colour scheme yet, thinking of red at the moment..... Got to decide soon as I have to get Natasha's dress Easter week.... Sorted out Calv's and Josh's suits going to order stone coloured light weight ones.....

Welcome to all the newbies !!! xxx Nicy - Soo Happy your dress is in..... What a weight off your mind xxxx Hope you feeling better soon x Can't believe how much time is left for you all xxx I've started having wedding dreams.... Dreamt last night that I forgot to book to have my hair and make up done for the wedding so I was chasing this woman around the hotel trying to get her to do my hair and make up!!!! I never bloody caught her either????? Has anyone else on here had any wedding dreams???

Michelle - Hope you getting better soon. Big hugs xxxx I've had a terrible week :-(((((( Started off really well went to London saw Phantom of the Opera, John was amazing in it got photos taken with him still dressed up, went to the Ivy for food afterwards, saw Matthew Fox (Dr Jack from Lost) yum, yum. Calv had a chat with him and he was really nice to him... Following day we had a tour backstage of Phantom (again curtesy of John) wonderful..... Then we came home :-(((((( I ended up with a water infection that affected my kidneys (not as bad as you Michelle but still painful), I was then given antibiotics for the infection, Calv developed a stomach bug which he kindly passed onto me by the Sat, (couldn't get out of bed all day), and then I came out in rash all over my body as I am allergic to the bloody antibiotics, my friend has now gone to get me Calamine Lotion..... Next week has got to be better..... xxxx On the up side as long as the rash has gone by Wednesday we are going to pick our wedding rings..... :-))))))

I am using Claudia Rodreiguez her works looks amazing she has her own website, I've been e-mailing her and she always replies and gives loads of good tips hope this helps x

Herbie - Really love the bridesmaid dresses they are soo pretty..... OMG Charmaine - Don't know what to say chick!!!!!!! What a nightmare woman!!!!!! Just count down the days the quicker the days go the sooner she goes.... Good luck xxx

Michelle - Really hope you start feeling better soon you xxxx and the same for you Nicy xxx And yes Michelle you were a help thanx hun xxx Thanx for all your kind words I had a really good chat with Calvin y'day and he made me feel so much better.... Starting to realise I need to chill out and relax and enjoy the planning of my wedding and to stop worrying about other things... What you said made sense xxx Thanx again xxx Really looking forward to going to London now xx Jo - Good luck with your move... Moving is stressful enough without it being between different countries xx Char - Good luck with your visitor xxx Hope it isn't too stressful for you xx
