Phew, that's a big list and im sure I have missed a few things but im glad we managed to achieve so much since we have only 31 days to go!
The next month is going to be so busy as well although I'm hoping that we can get the order of service's, placecards & table names / table plan finished in a couple of weeks so that we can spend the last couple of weeks relaxing before the big day! This weekend coming I have my 3rd dress fitting then me and mum are meeting the florist on Sunday. There are also a few things I need to paint including our G&G letters, the table name frames & letter tags to go on the bridesmaids gifts.
I'm so excited about next week as Helen has her bridesmaids dress fitting on Monday, Ashleigh and my nephew Enzo arrive on Wednesday and we have Ashleigh's bridesmaids dress fitting on Friday followed by my hair & make-up trials. Then Friday night is the start of my hen weekend, which I know nothing about except that we are going somewhere near Edinburgh to stay for 2 nights. The bridesmaids are also having their 2nd dress fitting on Saturday morning.
This month I'm also hoping to finally get round to writing all of the posts recapping all the events over the last few months; including the Cotswold's, the Christening, Florida, Christmas & all the wedding items we managed to accumulate during this time!
