... and for my 1000th post!!
 
I'm getting married :D


Not for two years mind (cant afford it before then :() & I don't get the ring for another 6 weeks!!! ;)

We just have a date and a venue, the rest of it can wait till later on. We thought as its going to be a UK wedding those two were easier to do whilst I was here. Plus we want to give the Australian friends and family as much time as possible to save for the travel over here!


Just thought I'd share that with you all, seemed like a good thing to post and be awarded five stars for :D

:beer:

Many, many congratulations on your pending wedding!!! :D (also the 1000th post!!).

Bugger to have to wait 6 weeks for the ring though, still it'll pass really quickly. Lots of plans ahead for you, how exciting. I loved every minute of planning our wedding - the dress, bridesmaids dresses, stationery, wedding cake, photographer, cars, string quartet, choir in the church, florist, venue, church, ah happy memories :)

Best wishes to you both

Congratulations! Your step-daughter-to-be looks a real sweetie.
BTW Bet all the blokes will be quick to respond, now you've posted your pic!

Shurely shome mishtake!?

Daughter in law is when your son marries a woman, she becomes your daughter in law.

You look a bit young.

Do you mean your husband to be already has a daughter? She'd be your step-daughter.

Sorry, don't wish to be patronising etc etc.

By the time I get the ring (not thats what its all about of course :rolleyes: ) it will have been about a 6 month wait, he asked me before he went back to Brisbane in Feb!!

Cant wait to start doing things, have been in touch with Zoe (as in Zoe & AnthonyKirby) & I'm hoping shes going to be able to do my wedding stationary nearer the time too :D

Yeah shes gorgeous - wrote the dimia a letter about how much she was missing me and wanting me back. Apparently she wants to take the day off school and get me from the airport next month as well.... think her dad told her he needed some time to, erm, catch up with me first ;)

Glenorchy in New Zealand (near Queenstown) I went there skiing last year in July but we spent a couple of days sight-seeing as well. Was even more impressive from the air ;)

Thanks - thats actually my other half :) He almost chickened out I can tell ya, I think its only because I'd already done one and he knew he would have never lived it down he got up there. He absolutely loved it though.
