bloody people!! (but not you lot)

I have managed to have 2 arguments...sorry dissagreements with shane in 2 days.

1 Wedding invitations. we are having them printed with our names and the date on the front. He wanted his name first, said it was traditional. I tried to point out that if they were being sent from my parents my name should be first. I ordered them with my name first..........but put his name first on the order of srevice and napkins.......compromise i think that is called. his mum said he was right my mum said i was right....sigh!

2 His mother has told him that the parents come in the room when you sign the register and are the witnesses. I had already asked him if i could have Clare, matron of honour. He said that was ok as he was having his best man. Now he thinks what his mother says is right and i know nothing, hope this isnt going to be the way the whole time we are married. I told him its silly to even think of our parents being the witneses as there are 4 of them and only 2 can do the job....how would i choose which one???? love both my mum and dad to bits and wouldn't want to hurt either of them by asking the other.

I love Shane, I know that for sure. absolutely. definately, 100%, no doubt in my mind, but whatever his mum says goes as far as he is concerned. I have been telling my mum and as she is very diplomatic she has told me to just smile :).....but i cant. Its winding me up like mad. she has been telling me for ages that the flowers were going to cost her £600. I told my mum, thought she was going to pass out. The price changed quite quickly after i got a quote of £250 maximum, and was told i dont listen properly as that was for the flowers and the photographer.

Am i marrying Shane.....or Shane and his mother, who i love to bits i might add, but she is turning into a wedding control freek. if we ever have a baby I can see my mum and shanes mum fighting on the maternity ward over what the baby should be dressed in!

omg i'm sorry for ranting and raving.

I wish you could all come to my wedding

love you all lots and lots

photo's

hello my dear friends

Recieved some pictures the other day from a wedding that shane and i went to and thought you might like to see them.

number 1 is Shane and myself

number 2 is the bride and groom (sara and fil) shane and me at the ends and clare and stuart in between.

We are off to see the vicar on Wednesday morning, so please keep your fingers crossed for us that we get a result and do manage to get married in the church. it will be full speed ahead then with all the arrangement's.

am in a bit of a pickle.......had decided, due to the cost to not have anybridesmaid dresses. Shane had 2 daughters and i have one and a neice. all family was a bit dissapointed at the thought of no bridesmaids....so now i have 5!!!!! the fifth 1 being sophie from bet's link family, who is 23, and who will hopefully try and keep the little ones in their place. the problem i have is what to dress them in. the 3 little ones are not a problem, sophie is not a problem, my dear daughter is the problem. as you know she is dissabled and unfortunatly has a weight problem so it will be near impossible to just buy a dress for her. do i have her's and sophies made so they are the same colour and have the flowergirls in a different colour? ? ? ?

have been offered a Bentley to go to the wedding in!!!!

Charlie is going to be a ring bearer on a little pillow!

was hoping Bryce could be a pageboy and maybe scatter rose petal's for me!!! He'll be 3 and 3 months by the wedding date....do you think he will be old enough?

any idea's please feel  free to let me know!

LOve you all loads and am reading all your journals still!

Chin up sara!

hugs for you Joyce

love to Ally, Joan, Jan and jeannette!

hope i havent missed anyone!

Joanne
