Dresses

Monsoon have some really funky brides dresses in their new collection...unfortunatley the other dresses we looked at inc the silver munch wanted (well it was pick of the bunch) have now been discontinued...The search resumes!

Random Thoughts

We have been thinking of gifts for our immediates, the main choices are a heart necklace for Wilsey, a charm bracelet for Kace and cufflinks for the boys. You can get novelty cufflinks from wedding shops online such as celebrationplus but I love some of these I found at Ernest Jones.

kel- this wedding directory might be a good site for you to look at x

Slideshow

Found a lovely slideshow of anglesey - take a peak here

reception idea

Since neither of us is convinced with the sea zoo idea i've been looking at other options. I've discounted hiring a village hall as we would have to provide all drinks and that would be way too costly. My fav idea of the day is Tafarn Y Gors, a pub/restaurant in Gaerwen that frequently uses the restaurant as a function room and is next to a caravan site. They dont have email so i've rung and asked them to send a price list for a buffet for 80 people. The caravan site would be a great place for guests that cant be fitted in at cerrig y barcud and i've spoken to a coach company about ferrying us and the 30 odd staying at cerrig to and from gaerwen and it would cost about £150. If only we knew Dave Coaches!

Guest Book

In line with the hand crafted element of the wedding, I'd really like to make my own guest book. I've been thinking up loads of ideas to decorate blank chipboard books or another idea could be to have a ring binder style album and inside have plastic sheets that hold cards - like a trading card holder and each of the guests can write on trading cards with have been pre-decorated by yours truly.

Back on track

We are totally getting back on track with diet and smoking, and are getting really excited about the wedding again munch is making loads of fabric and paper flowers courtesy of Martha and I'm looking at budgets outfits and reviewing the guest list , will write more when i have time...
The wedding is getting more and more traditional by the day which is what we didn't want but somehow its difficult to escape.
I've just thought though about an American gangster theme like Bugsey Malone then i can where a fedora!!!
