Further wedding arrangements

Things are moving on day by day.

Just met with the lady who is doing our cake. She seems very competent indeed and knows her cakes. We have ordered one that is both fruit cake and sponge so that James can enjoy the cake as well! It’s going to be well yummy and in the colour scheme of the wedding. Other than that you will just have to wait and see!

Met with Evoke Photography last night. They seem very competent indeed and are holding our wedding date for one week in case we decide to have them. I think the photographer is therefore as good as booked because if the other 3 people are equal or worse, we will go with them for sure. Have further meetings with 3 more photographers - 2 on Thursday evening and one Saturday lunchtime.

Called the man with the cars last night. We are going to visit his farm on Saturday to see his Jaguar and Rolls Royce. Hopefully one will be suitable.

Popped into Val’s Florist on Magdalen Road and got a wedding flowers price list. Pretty pricey but i haven’t seen any other price lists so she might be just the same as anyone else for all i know.

Called John Lewis and arranged to pop up there a week on Saturday to compile the gift list. Very exciting indeed! Even though you are supposed to only do the list 10 weeks before the wedding, they said they didn’t mind us doing it 8 months before hehe! Wow 8 months doesn’t sound very long does it!

Spoken with Bex and Rose about the hen night and had some cool ideas. I think we will do something at my house and get someone in to do a cosmetics party of some sort so we can all have facials and make-overs. We can drink lots of champagne (or soft drinks) and have some yummy food. Sounds fun to me!

Now got to find out who can come and do hair and make-up for us girls on the day. Maybe some of the salons in town will do home visits. Will check it out.
