wedding plans continued

'Yippee, my 'I do' stickers arrived today - now just waiting impatiently for my shoes!

I'm still trying to decide what i want to do with my hair for the big day. I want to have it slightly off my face but not all tied up, and possibly with a shoulder-lenght veil attached behind my head, not on top.

H2B and i are deciding on wedding favours. We have found some flip flop bottle openers for the men and some silk and bamboo fans for the ladies. H2B wants to get the openers engraved and there is another company that prints on the actual fan - but this will bring up the cost a lot and i'm not sure if it is really neccessary. Not all the guests will be sentimental and keep the favours.

Planning time

It's been a while since I last wrote a post. I guess the most exciting news is that CJ and I have decided to have our wedding in Cyprus next year! There are so many ideas online at the moment I just can't decide what to do! We want a simple wedding but i want a few special touches to make our guest feel welcome - since they are travelling a fair distance for us!

Here are a few of my favourites found on pinterest:

I think this must be the most exciting part of plannig your wedding, I just can't wait to try loads of dresses on - the hard part would be finding a place to hide it until the big day!
