Is the Wedding off?

That would be epic. Not as epic as Adam being stood up tho obv. Would make for a great thread.


lolz not yet...

nothing exciting happening at the moment we have an appointment at the uk venue next saturday to have a look round and do some serious haggling on price.

 The bit i'm looking forward to the most during the wedding planning, is choosing the cake!! I dragging adam round every wedding cake shop within a 20mile radius getting plenty of samples... then probably get a friend to bake it a a fraction of the cost Cheesy

Hi Adam, good luck with everything.

Whereabouts in Chester do you live?

Cheers mate, and congrats on the little'un. Hope everything's good there!

Sorry it took so long to reply, this got caught up in the hoopla about playing poker on the day itself and I managed to miss it until now...

We live in Hoole, pretty much next door to Chester Train Station. Useful for work and getting into the city itself - useless when we want to sleep and all we hear are sirens...

The Rings

So far everything we've planned has gone pretty much like this " yep nice.. we'll have it"  wedding planning is starting to seem ridic easy. But we thought with something this important we would take our time... shop around and find the perfect rings.

We (I) want matching rings.. I say matching, not 100% matching but along the same theme. I drag Adam into a Jewellers on a whim, see the ring I want, try it on and it looks perfect (although my fingers swelled in the 5mins from arriving in the shop and putting the ring on, cue 15mins of frantic yanking, pulling and twisting with a nervous shop assistant watching my every move)  There was a matching one for Adam too and looks nice, fits his bony fingers no stickage there, thank god. 

Now we (I) have a dilemma..

we (I) want those rings, and are totally uninterested in shopping round (it's only £50 over budget and I was £100 under with the dress so all good) we (I)  just want that one. But I'm pretty sure we can't just keep going like this wedding planning has to get hard at some point right??

What Joobs has forgotten to mention is that we would have put the deposit down on them there and then...if I hadn't already drained the account for my suit and the rest of it is in a savings account. Oops.

I think we'll be getting them though. Just waiting for the other shoe to drop on this whole "wedding planning is a nightmare" saying now.

nope - breezed through mine.  if you're pretty laid back and not high maintenance no reason it should get tricky - you'll be fine Smiley

Yep totally.  I think it really totally depends on how laidback you both are but if the girl doesn't have a princess fantasy and isn't ridic high maintenance (and Joobs doesn't seem that way at all) then it doesn't have to be a headache.  If there are a couple of things that you definitely want to happen then focus on them and then just let the other stuff sort itself out but most of all relax and enjoy it.  It really is the best day of your life.

Marriages not my strong point - do you have to do anything specific to arrange the wedding in Vegas aside from finding a venue?
What documentation do you need?  Do you have to register it here? etc etc

Best of luck to you both.

I can answer this one.  It's dead easy - all you have to do is grab a marriage licence once you're out in vegas, and you're good to go.  no need to do anything legal this side.

Get the licence over there - need your passport and both to appear in person. Cost is $60.

Many thanks, seems a shame she has to come with me but it will stop her stalking Matt Goss for at least one afternoon I guess.
