Rebel Weddings

27Jun08

Another one of my favourite weddings featured on the (sanity giving) blog Off Beat Bride! Thank heavens for this site.
Check out Laura and Dave’s Karaoke wedding and what she has to say about the whole process. I think ““YouGotta’s” is the best expression yet for the way people get Wedding Nazi on you.
 


I love youtube.com - it never ceases to amaze me what is on there. We have been discussing possible first dances.. which do you like? There is more after the jump..

I think I am going to walk down the aisle to this:

and back down it as a Mrs to this:


It’s getting closer as Crate and sodding Barrel kindly pointed out when I logged on to edit our registry today (guilt + registries = bad times). 100 and fifty something days. Great. Thanks.

I have been having headaches over centerpieces for some time now.. months actually. We really aren’t having much decor - our wedding / reception is outside in a garden, with just white linen covered round tables and twinkle lights above so we probably need some kind of centerpiece. 
First the idea was a wimpiscal nautical based idea [...]


Oooo prezzies

17Apr08

We’ve sent out pretty much all of our Save The Date cards and look what we get back - our first present from Crate & Barrel no less. It came on a day that we’d had a massive row about wedding planning as well. Oh the irony. For the first time in my life we [...]


Hang The DJ

22Mar08

Guess how much the average wedding DJ costs? $900. Seriously $900 for a 5 hour event. One guy wrote me back with a quote for “$2500″ I really wanted to email him back some very unlady-like comments but luckily for him I am not pmsing so I had a measure of self control.
So I have [...]
