Thanks Shell for indulging me! and Nelly, Tina and Ashley for encouraging me!
All is going great, 19 days to go! I have been up to my eyes with planning so haven't been around here much but here's my update.
Last weekend I had my hen party weekend (bachelorette) 14 of us girla went to Clonakily in West Cork, a beautiful part of the world, went out for dinner and drinks on Friday night and spent Saturday afternoon in a spa. Pure bliss.
The girls dressed me up in a tiara, two boas and gave me baby pink wings, and a wand. They gave me a goody bag with chocolates, books, a kama sutra (!) and other nice bits and pieces.
This weekend we met the hotel where we are having out reception www.riversideparkhotel.com They were so accommodating and really helpful.
So here's our planned day:
1.30 pm - Wedding Mass in Duncannon Church, Co. Wexford
4pm- Drinks Reception (Champagne, tea, coffee) and blues music in the hotel
6.30pm- Dinner This is our menu: Starter: Chicken and bacon salad OR seafood cakes with coriander mayo
Soup: Concannon & Chive
Main: Roast Sirloin of Beef in Red Wine jus OR parcels of plaice stuff with crab and shrimp mousseline
with mashed potato, gratin potato,ratatouille and green beans
Dessert: Carmel and Raspberry Parfait OR Apple and Blackberry Crumble
....yummy!
After Dinner: Speeches by Dad, P's Dad, P and I and then the highlight, the bestman's speech
From 9.30- Music by http://www.theshakes.ie Our evening guest will arrive around 9pm.
10.45- Afters food- sandwiches, cocktail sausages, chicken drumsticks.
From 12pm- Disco with DJ
2.30 DJ end
3.30 Bar closes

Saturday night we are going back to my home village for a night out and Sunday we are flying out on honeymoon at 7pm, from Dublin so will leave my home village about midday to get us to the airport in plenty of time.
What else do ya want to know Ashley and I will be more than happy to oblige with ALL the details! Don't be shy now, I love talking about it all!
