[roo66]

Ive got to start by Thanking each and everyone of you for helping me to create the wedding of our dreams with so many ideas that our guests will be bowled over by.I will have to add more to my post later as i dont have everything to hand.Time is running out lol.

As a uk bride i stumbled upon this website whilst recovering from shoulder surgery.I was hooked from day one.I have borrowed stolen and even bought items from you girlies accross the pond and i thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your ideas.Im sure the other uk brides will agree we would not of been able to create such wonderful memories not only for ourselves but our guests as well.

I proposed to Paul (leap year) the new years eve before we had had a few to drink and id dismissed the idea of being married again as ive been married twice.He got quite emotional and afterwards i just thought if the shoe had been on the other foot id of doubted his commitment etc hence my proposal.There was no ring exchange just a huge bunch of balloons delivered to his work place with will you marry me 2010 written on them

Lets just say he was hugly embarrased.lol

After much umming and arring we chose Greece as i wanted all our family there

We will go to Hawaii one day

We booked Peligoni and following a visit in June it lived up to my expectations

Our colours are hot pink and turquoise hence the ribbon the starfish charms were an ebay purchase.

Starfish to hold our rings I wanted starfish as place cards BUT they are so expensive i may get some in Greece as i did find some out there.I kept it simple just tying the ribbon our rings will sit on one of the fingers.
