    Tarzana don't stress either loose the weight if you want to, and well done for shedding the pounds already. In the same age bracket and it isn't easy

    This is it. It's already noticeably a bit harder than even a few years ago, and I don't want to put it off any longer.

    Anyway, it just won't be important on the day, but I don't want to stress her in the lead up to it, as I think the lead up is more stressful than the day itself!

    Was talking to a friend who was at a wedding a few weeks ago and it absolutely bucketed rain on the day. The wedding was in a church, with the reception in the hotel. The hotel was about a half hour away from the church, but because the wedding car was an old vintage car, it wasn't the fastest, so the guests arrived to the hotel before the B&G did. Apparently when they arrived, the bride threw a MASSIVE hissy fit that all the guests weren't waiting outside (in the pissings of rain) to welcome them as they arrived at the reception!! :confused::eek:

    Are people supposed to come out to welcome the bride and groom? I've never done it. Usually the hotel manager greets them at the door with champagne i thought

    Yeah at our wedding most people were standing in the foyer of the hotel as they were having tea & coffee. There were few standing outside around the door. It was a bit embarrassing walking in as everyone was busy and in conversations. It was a case of ok, we have walked in, what do we do now...? Much preferred when we were welcomed into the dining room.

    I'm pretty sure the guests are always at the hotel before the B&G, not after... unless the B&G decide to skip the photos? :confused:
    Isn't that what the afternoon reception is for?

    When I got married the guests were already at the hotel, but similarly to the bridezilla I just posted about, it took us longer to get there cos our wedding car was like 90 years old or something. There were a fair few people outside when we arrived, but that was because it was a sunny day so they were having their drinks out in the sunshine. The people outside sort of applauded when we got out of the car, but it wasn't anything formal. I always thought the 'formal' welcome bit was when you come in for dinner. Even if it WAS some sort of formal requirement, surely if it was bucketing rain nobody would expect everyone to stand outside getting soaked!
