(you can censor this bit ) - Which anniversary will you celebrate? (i'd go for both!) - How are the plans for the June wedding coming along? and the honeymoon? A friend is planning a trip to San Fran and I am so jealous, we were there last January and I am hankering to go back Are you living in NYC for good now, bye bye Canada or are you still "commuting" til your papers come through?

It was lovely to have Tommy's parents there, it must have been so nice for them to be a part of it too. The whole husband calling thing is fun. We are married 3 months now and the novelty hasn't worn off at all We have a new name for the "you know"- it's called "honeymooning"! I never did get P to lift me over the threshold of our house as I was too tired and embarrassed (our door is very public and our neighbours are strange people who we don't know) Good luck with all the paperwork- I'm sure that Tommy doesn't know his luck having you there all the time now Sinead's wedding planning tips (well you DID ask!) -Agree a guest list ASAP (this is one of the few things that cause P and I endless hassle, especially with our parents- DO NOT, repeat DO NOT give your parents any say! Give them a number of people if you are letting them invite friends/family that they want to invite and make them stick to it or else do what I did, tell them "I thought that I would like to invite X and Y- mine were genuinely delighted that I wanted some of their friends there at all so they only asked me to add 2 couples which I conceded, we asked P's parents to give us a list of the people that they would like to ask to OUR wedding, their list was 140 people!) -Try to be realistic about things and only fuss about things that are genuinely important (you will be amazed what you THINK is important at various stages over the next couple of months) This is the best piece of advice that anyone gave me. -Give in to your intended on things that are more important to them than they are to you -Don't get bogged down in the detail or the expense, the things people commented most on at our wedding were not the most expensive things, they were the most personal things that we had done, like writing our own vows, the music that we chose. -Enjoy every minute of letting the wedding take over your life- enjoy the browsing in Bridal boutiques, the choosing the flowers, the lot. -Websurf for ideas. (I know I don't need to tell you this but still) I'll email you a link with some good sites that I found for flowers as it was one thing that i knew zip about before I started looking. I found a fab bouquet online and everyone thought it was really unusual. -Remember that what is important about the day is that you get to marry the man that you love and declare your love for him in front of friends and family. -It WILL be the best day of your life, mine was -------------------- S.

But you know, the only thing that matters is that you walk down that aisle and get married. Nothing else really matters. I mean they matter, but you know? they're just details. What will people really remember? The love you share, having a good time with friends and family. Are they likely to remember tablecloths and flowers and what they ate? Not too likely. Expect things to go wrong - and keep a cool head and do your best, but the day of - que sera! One thing that worked with both of my mothers - they were allowed to give me advice, which I promised to consider and be open to, but so long as they respected my decision without arguing about it. It was a good deal. -------------------- Formerly HanSolo. IBS, OCD, Bipolar, PTSD times 3. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Too cute....
