I've been busy because...

...I'm getting married!!

The big day is September 5th, 2009, which according to my ticker, is 6 months and 13 days away! Holy crap - that will creep up on me fast!

The church ceremony is booked for 4:00pm on September 5th, at my parents local church. We're not having a sit-down meal, but a buffet at the reception straight after. The hotel where we're having the reception have held all their rooms for my guests and have given us the bridal/honeymoon suite for free! Yay!

My dress was bought and paid for on Tuesday. It's beautiful! A bit more than I wanted to spend, but it was cheap for a designer dress - especially one that is new out this season! And in the grand scheme of things, £630 is nothing!

I've still not got the bridesmaids dresses sorted out or the colour scheme, which means Des can't order his suit! However, I'm going to a wedding fair on Sunday, so hopefully we can pick out a dress then! Once that's picked, we can sort the colour scheme and Des can order his and his best mans suit!

My neice, Emily is being my flowergirl, and my nephew, Thomas is being the ring bearer! Des' twin brother is flying back from South Africa to be the best man and all the plans seem to be going okay for now. It's quite stressful though!

Talking of stress, I'm still waiting for my period to bloody arrive! I must be stressing majorly! Day 37 and no sign! I seriously cannot be pregnant when I get married because I'll never squeeze into my dress! It's already a snug fit because I plan on dropping 3 dress sizes (minimum) before September - They can take the dress in, but they can't let it out! LOL! I need my period to come so I can temporarily go on the pill!

So...The ticker...
