My utterly gorgeous bridesmaid


Our cake - this was the tester at Christmas, it will be much bigger!



Our venue



Our invitations


Bracelets for our female ushers (the boys are getting ties in that green)


Make up


Hand bling from Lullabelz


Evening entertainment


Dress


Headpiece


Phil found this in a charity shop - think it will be a photo prop and on one of the tables!


He's going to paint these a brassy colour to go on the helm above


To go...somewhere!


I'll be piped in and out


Name place holders - thinking we encourage guests to take these home with them and they can be 'photo holders' for the pictures we will send them!


My shoes


Going to use the two tapes on the left for table runners

Things I don't have photos of:

Flowers - cream roses and thistles with lots and lots of greenery!

His suit - he had it made bespoke and his jacket lining is the same colour as our BM's dress!

Table centers - model tall ships. Hours of scouring ebay and charity shops!

Favours - the Jubilee Sailing Trust don't sell pin badges as standard anymore, but are letting me buy some from their supplier anyway!

Table plan: our tables are going to be named after bits of a tall ship, so we were thinking having a big picture of the line drawing on the invite with lines pointing to the relevant bits and then relevant names by that pointer.

Remind me of anything I've forgotten please!

    Superb! I'm loving the BM dress and you know how much I covert yours. I don't think that you've forgotten anything unless you're having a card box...or did you mention that??

    Just how exciting is this!

    Thank you for you kind words ladies! Was fiddling with my phone when watching TV and found this of Phil trying on his suit!


    It will be white shirt and green tie on the day, and I HOPE he'll tie his shoelaces!

    I love it. We're going down the 'pick a seat not a side' route, too. I haven't seen a sign like that though we were just going to rely on our ushers to make sure people were evenly distributed! I might pinch that idea and make my own version though for the entrance to the church. My OH's biggest fear about the wedding was that he'd look like a friendless idiot as my family is huge (64 guests) and his is small (6 guests).

    How fantastic. It all looks wonderful. We're not having sides either. As far as we're concerned we've been one family for eons. Plus if we had sides it would be very lopsided lol x

    Perhaps slips ons for Phil Smiley smile One smart suit though. Don't forget your card box flash when he's finished it.

    It looks fab so far! I love your venue and I think that you've absolutely transformed your dress with the alterations - it looks really dreamy!

    Oh WOW!!! I love every bit of it, every last detail. You are going to have such an amazing wedding! Your dress is gorgeous and I love your make up and headpiece.

    I want your shoes especially. It's too late for me now, as H2B is customising a pair because I couldn't find any, but if I had found yours first, I would've had them.
