SHOES


OK i am now on my 3rd pair of shoes! But I want these ones! :(

Bit out of my price range - £159!!! FOR A PAIR OF SHOES.


No Kat you can't have them!! :)

Pay Day!!

Well Ian gets paid tomorrow so we can start paying for some more stuff.
The priority is the cake, car and invites which I am getting done.
On Saturday we are going into town to pick our rings and put deposit down on them and then sort the suits out. Had a bit of a nightmare with the measurements for Kris and Sam, but that was down to my poor instructions and Lisa being really tired!

I am really excited as its all coming together now and getting closer and closer. I just keep having nightmares about how the room is going to look on the day. I am such a perfectionist that I want it done a certain way and because we are on a tight schedule on the morning of the wedding I can’t go down and do it myself! We do get a chance to check it before any guests go in but knowing me I will change everything and all the guests will be waiting for their food all day!! I have to get out of this mindset and just stop worrying, Lisa will do a fab job and has (or will have) the instructions of what I want.

Boudoir Shoot

Well this has been booked for some time now. I am excited about it but nervous at the same time.
It is booked for the 22nd October, and I am flying over the Liverpool in the morning and the lady who is doing the shoot is picking me up and taking me to the studio, as she lives 5 minutes away. I am having a makeover before the shoot, and then the shoot is an hour long with 2 costume changes. I have opted for a nice Basque and pants set for one, and then going to borrow Ian’s Spurs shirt for the other.
Once the shoot is over the lady is dropping me back at the airport for me to fly home.
I may put some snaps on here once they have done. Depending on how revealing they are of course!

Busy Week

Well this week has been quite busy with one thing or another.
I have been setting up the house, and finalising details etc for Stacey’s Hen Party. Then I have been inviting people to my hen do.
We were originally going to go to Chester for the weekend but because of costs I just can’t afford it. Plus other people can’t afford to.
So we are staying on the Island. I spoke with Stacey on Saturday and we said we would do the karaoke bus, but that limits me to 16 people. So I have opted for a party in Bordello. I have invited so many people – lol. Lots seem to be coming so far. The theme is fairytale. Not sure what I am going to go as yet but got loads of ideas and need to save for the costume.
I have started the healthy eating and fitness again this week. I only have 2 more pounds to lose before I have lost a stone. I need to lose another stone and I will be happy. My sister, brother in law, and friend went swimming last night and I felt really good after it. I might go again tonight! That or go for a walk!
I have 3 months before my Boudiour Shoot in Liverpool. I am excited about it but really do need to lose a bit of more weight as photos make me look more podgy than what I am! Plus I am not very confident when I comes to being just in my pants! Hehe.
We went to see Allison Ratcliffe on Monday about the cake. She has all my ideas down and now I just need to pay the deposit and we are all booked in!

Stacey's Hen Party


I am so excited today, there has been talk of Hen Parties and fancy dress this lunchtime, and I just had to share my costume for Stacey's hen party with you.

I can't wait, i hope she is going to have a good time!

We are all starting at my house, for dancing and champagne cocktails. Then we are heading to a bar in town, where i have booked out a side room for us all for an hour. Yay cocktails.....

Then Stacey said that she wants to head to another bar called Bordello, and then onto a club, Colours.

I think i have gone over board with the stuff for her, but hey ho its only for one night isn't it!

I have goodie bags for all the girls coming and the theme is 1980s neon, we we have to be as bright as possible. As you can see from the picture i think i have achieved that goal!?!

The Car


I was originally going to have a friend do the wedding car for me, but he hasn’t been well, and hasn’t replied to my emails. So as a back up I have asked for some quotes. I think I am going to have a Silver Merc!! But what I want to know is why are they so blooming expensive? Its only a car for god’s sake and its only taking me down the road!?!?!? http://www.kandbcarriages.com/

The Cake

I was originally going to get an M&S Cake and decorate it myself. But Ian’s sister has insisted on paying for a proper one. So on Monday I am going to go see Allison Radcliffe to discuss what I want. http://www.manxcakemaker.com/
I just want a 3 tiered, square cake, with purple icing on the middle tier and lilac heart icing dotted around the cake, and then purple ribbon around each of the tiers.
Simples!
For the topper, a lovely lady called Pauline is making this for me. It will be me and Ian in our wedding clobber. Pauline is so talented at this, she has made 2 toppers for me before and they have just been amazing. http://www.wedding-toppers.com/
