Want to know the shocking bit? They only cost 50 each! And 38 for the flowergirl. Was a major gamble, I expected there would be a catch! Can't recommend enough we are chuffed. PM if you want more details.

Michellenman wrote: » What colour are you planning for suits? My fiancé is going to choose his suit before we sort out BM dresses as he’s thinking of maybe going for a dark green or burgundy suit. If he goes with either of those then I think the groomsmen might go in a lighter grey suit with a waist coat matching the groom. But then I’ve to find BM dresses that don’t clash with that... There’s loads of pics of green/burgundy grooms suits on Pinterest but very few photos where they show the full bridal party to get an idea of cohesiveness.

The BM slot is only 30mins so you best know what you're looking for going in- I'd already picked what I wanted them to try on in advance so we were in and out very fast! Another thing off the list!!

I've ordered the 2018 Love & Marriage, as I've heard so many complaining about the 2020 version being too much of a hassle, the middle bit of the 'O' in love is a separate sticker, as are the two little hearts. No harm having stamps in the house anyway, so if anyone wants to stock up, the link is below https://www.anpost.com/Shop/Stamps-labels/Occasion-stamps

Have another appointment tomorrow and two next weekend. I *think* I found my dress today though, so we will see if I can top it this week. Getting our rings sorted for August, as well as grooms suit. BM dresses to be sorted in September. Going to be DIYing my pew ends and center pieces soon too. Everything else is done though thankfully. Feels positive

My nerves just completely disappeared. We're going ahead doing the few things we can plan at the moment. We did the postal notifcation of intent to marry, and we're waiting on the jeweller to price up the rings. We've plenty of time yet, as ours is a Spring wedding, but just in case we go back a phase or two in the lockdown, we're doing what we can. We're happy to go with whatever comes our way. If it's just us and witnesses, or family only, or being allowed 80 guests. We can always have a celebration when it's safe to do so. How is everyone doing?

Honestly though, I can't see things being much different next year. It will be a long time before there's a vaccine and longer again to actually have widespread administration (to those actually willing to take it!). Obviously we'll have learned more about the virus though and there may be some treatments that can help improve the prognosis. It's very hard to see this thing going away though and I think social distancing will be here to stay for a long time. The only potential advantages I can see for weddings next year is that people will be more used to the "new normal" and hopefully the travel restrictions will have eased by then (e.g. finding an alternative to the 14 day quarantine rule) allowing family from abroad to attend. There'll be more certainty next year about how weddings will function, but that's all imho.
