Rachel is doing the orgainising. I have been allowed input into where, when and some of the what. The rest remains a surprise. Please no drinking games and no Tequila!!!
The when I can tell you. It will be about a [...]
My Wedding Dress
Hurray – I’ve got my wedding dress. Its not the one I went to buy this morning, but its still a Maggie Sottero dress!!!
Mum and I went out this morning with the sole intention of trying on one dress that I was then going to buy. The plan was to try the dress on in [...]
Brad’s Wedding suit
I finally managed to get Brad to start organising his suit last week.
He had seen a waistcoat he liked in a magazine ages ago, which was red and gold, but he hadn’t seen one in any of the shops. I had to pester him to sort it out as I wanted to match the bridesmaid’s dress to the [...]
Mother’s Day
Just a little reminder that its Mother’s Day this Sunday, and not last Sunday, as Stuart thought after receiving an reminder email from Interflora. Last week was apparently European Mother’s Day. Mum was really pleased with her chocolates, flowers and her card last week. I just want to know what he’s sending this week!!
If you [...]
Man’s Shopping Trip
Went shopping today for my wedding suit.
First shop, found what I liked, ordered it and then went to the pub for lunch.
Shopping isn’t that hard.
Dress Shopping – part 3
Saturday was another dress shopping day. Mum was back from her holiday so she came along too.
First we went to Chipping Sodbury to Future Brides, we couldn’t get an appointment but they were really nice and tried to squeeze me in so that I could try the dress on again, but no luck. I [...]
Dress Shopping – part 2
So we had another go at finding me a wedding dress yesterday and seeing some bridesmaid dresses for Rachel.
We started off with the bridesmaid dress. We found a really lovely nearly fluoresent orange dress. Joking; but nearly all the dresses Rach tried on were lovely apart from the orange one. We narrowed it down to [...]
Dress Shopping
Today is the day of the big dress shop. Rachel, my mum and I had a shopping trip back in July. Potentially found a dress, but I wasn’t quite “Wow I have to have that one”. So Rachel is back in Bristol for us to have another go and also to find her a bridesmaid [...]
Wedding News – Entertainment
The next step on the planning list is entertainment.
Music for before, during and after the ceremony. Music during the reception and finally the disco.
Brad is trying to sort out the disco at the moment, so hopefully some news soon.
Daytime entertainment will probably be provided by The Moon Loungers, (negociations pending).
Still discussing music for the [...]

Well why not? So we set off bright and early towards West Wales. Got there about 12ish. Small trek up a hill, and time [...]
