celtic, you are making me laugh way too much. I can't wait for a few months from now when the wedding is over and you can look back at your posts. It should be fun to see what you all were stressing over.

February 1st we'll be singing and celebrating in the forums. Wow. it will be here before you know it. Pictures please. And good idea to keep addresses behind the scenes. Please send me an address too. Thanks.

Hello my freinds, I have missed hanging out so much...but my head has been lodged some other place. Fake tannings, waxed eyebrows, dress alterations, make up trials....yada yada. Celtic has been sooooo patient with me-I am sooooo lucky.
In eight days time, the party will be full swing and I will be the luckiest, happiest women alive. Anyone who wants the address can have it pm'ed. I think I have said this before...but just in case....all you ladies who showed me understanding, concern and care when I first came around are partly responsible for these wonderous events in my life. I am one very greatful woman this day for all the freindship I have been given.
Thank you all again.

Popea

hannilore the offical pming address person god love her hart she volentered just in case po having something waved or sprayed or glued (nails)lol.

lola
this dress is the bane of my life latly!!
firstly i admit im a child at christmass and can't waite to know and worst of all give my pressies but on this occasion i have not NOT looked despite knowing it in the wardrobe eventhough i wanna wanna wanna look.

i ordered and had mad the cusion for the rings po came to pick it up the seemstress looked at her face i had to leave the shop for her to talk to ladie dressmakers for alterasions, out came the brave po and i was informed the cushion was being remaid for free couse it classes in tone with the dress!!!(their keeping the made one for window desplay).....so new couler and new wording on cushion...I swear i fairly competent person but obvously as the dressmaker told me its all in the detail hmmmm. Then told me how the detail was gonna be as newly descussed!!!

I had to wait outside while they talked about the alterasons with a heard of clucking women descussing things and how butifull the dress was etc etc (yes they were strangers but had an oppinion on things)and had to send L in with the old cushion so i wouldn't accidently see the dress.....he had po and the ladie dressmakers doubled over laughing couse po had dress on he went in and went " oh look ahhhh pretty pauline pretty" she though i put him up to it but i didn't the wee angel.

My couler scheem for flowers was overridden, now po not an overly forcfull person and she hasen't been a pesty princess (eventhough she will look like one) but i even know not to mess and just to shut up and back down and thats saying something but how dose she manage to get the variouse shopkeepers to agree with her, HOW I ASKE YA lol...

i am sure in bigger families with more opinions to consider their is fights to the death over "thse deatails" brakes one out in a cold sweat eh!

I just love hearing you talk about this wedding - all the decisions, the potential stress, yet you still seem so joyful and excited. I wish you both the VERY, VERY BEST!!!

What are you wearing, Celt? Give us a description. I'm dying to know. Are you matching Lucien's Jasper Conran?

Celtic, You are so right not to post the address publicly. Actually I edited that part in my post, but didn't check if it was changed; and it didn't change??? Don't know why.…
So you and Po just continue your organizing. I'll take care of the card part. Will be posting about that soon.

Oh Ladies....it's all going on. Thats me just booked in for a spray tan(I am a fake tan virgin!!) and I am soo scared about it. Celtic is off for her make-up trial this am soooo she shall return more gorgeous and I hope pleased with how it is done.
Robert will be here on the day before and will look after Lucien and get him ready on the morning. He will also carry him with the 'matching' cushion...in case he scurries off to find the loo in the 'big castle'.
Lola, I have no idea of what celtic is wearing...and she only knows to match with my colour of dress. The cake is sorted and on it will be written, 'ta mo croi istigh ionat'..my heart lies within you in gealic...well... it is St Brides Day, first day of celtic spring. The flower thing that celtic mentioned was in relation to what colours are apt for the beginning of spring, she reckoned it was firey colours...it may be in Scotland...but in Ireland it is white, green, lilacs, etc. Next week will be chaotic I am sure...but I am also sure we will have time to keep our boomer sisters up to speed...(breath Po, breath woman!!)

Keep sweet ya'll
