Ahhh, wedding planning

[lavendersparkle]

I am beginning to realise why people tell you to book things early. I have just started looking into hiring table clothes and crockery etc. for the wedding and am starting to fear that a) it will cost way more than I thought and b) there may not be any hire firms with crockery free on our wedding date. On top of that there's the stress of how to get all of the stuff to and from the Guildhall. I suppose it wouldn't be the end of the world if guests ate off biodegradable plates with wooden knives and forks.

Alec hasn't found a band we like yet and I haven't even begun getting the stuff for the brit ahuvim yet because I've yet to find out whether any of my friends would be willing to officiate at one. Eclesiastical lawyers are being consulted over whether our marriage will be legal or we'll have to get legally married beforehand.

On the plus side, Alec has his outfit almost sorted and frankthebarmaid is still happy to make my dress in July. I think I'm going to go with Peter Graves for the flowers because when I visited them they were really helpful and they've been recommended by quite a few people as the florists to go to as long as you don't want lots of fancy stuff. My mother has managed to break down my fathers resistence over wearing morning dress and he has booked his suit.

in a sense, biodegradable plates and wooden cutlery would at least take your mind off having to clear up and so on - makes things much easier on an already stressful day (and will look FINE, don't fret)

*hugs* for the stress level!
