Eight weeks left!

So when I sent back the forms to the registry office, confirming all our details for our marriage (which is in eight weeks, in case you didn't know!!), I also sent in a form for them to fill in so I could get my new passport in my married name. They messed up and spelt BOTH our names wrong. They finally sent back a new form, filled in correctly. I can now apply for my new passport! Woo hoo!

I've also ordered the material for the guys' cravats so that should arrive this week. The Wedding Centre where we've hired the suits from will make the cravats for us. I'm sure eight weeks is enough time to do that, right?

I had a trial hair appointment two days ago which went really well. I love my hair do! It's going to go really well with my dress too :) I still haven't figured out what I'm doing with the bridesmaids hair though. Really need to getting the thinking cap on for that one.

Not long now!

The first ickle hiccup and a bit more

Nothing major, just a supplier we wanted is no longer available :( Now I have to do a load more research and contacting before we can tick this little treat off the list.

On the 'exciting' front, I've had my first dress fitting! It doesn't need any major adjustments which is fantastic. I've also sorted out my jewellery and Joe is making something gorgeous for me to finish off my look. I need to have a very long, hard think about if/how to accesorise the bridesmaids. It's proving to be tricky...

I've also made the first step towards sorting out the cravats for the guys. They're going to look so handsome! Because we chose a colour that wasn't 'standard', we have to have the cravats specially made. Well worth it though, trust me.

I finally sent back all the papers to the registry office this week too. Very important! If I'd have forgotten, there might not be a wedding and we can't be having that now, can we.

Bits and bobs

Have spent a bit of time now doing 'bits'. Some people call it 'faffing'. I've been replying to emails, confirming appointments, arranging things and just doing stuff. This is clearly the boring part of organising a wedding :) On the plus side, this is all stuff that needs to be dealt with eventually so at least now I've got a hold of it.

We've got the rings!

Our rings have arrived. Phew! They're wonderful and we can't wait to wear them forever more :)
