Sigh. Am starting to get slightly annoyed at people's reactions when I tell them our wedding date...
'Oh December! What a nice time of year'
'Wha-? December 2012??? Wow you're... organised'
'Do you really need to plan it that far in advance?'
Grrr...

How Embarrassment
Ok so here it is - no one knows I have a blog. Not the Boy, none of my friends, no one in my family - NO ONE.
Until I got sprung a few weeks ago.
One of my recently engaged friends was browsing a wedding forum I frequent, and she saw a post I had written and thought 'Hmm, that sounds like something ______ would say'. And of course I have this web address as my signature 'advertising' my blog. And of course she clicked on it to have a read. And of course she saw the pics I had put up of the BM dresses I am so proud of getting for an insanely cheap price. And of course I had shown her pics of the BM dresses only a few weeks before. And so of course she worked out it was me.
I don't know why I feel embarrassed about having a blog, it's actually a pretty cool thing to do right?...Right? So I've decided that I'm not going to be embarrassed about it anymore. It's a creative outlet for me, and it helps me get my thoughts/ideas about the wedding out and on 'paper'. Writing about it seems to clear my head.
So uh, Hi Mel! *waves*
*Please note - people still don't know I have a blog. I will tell them eventually. One day. Maybe *blushes*

And The Venue Is...
Marmion Angling and Aquatic Club
We fell in love with the place as soon as we walked in, and the people who work there are amazingly friendly and helpful. I have to admit I had some doubts as to whether it was wise for us to pick a venue from only *shock horror* one day of looking. But as The Boy rationally pointed out: It ticks all the boxes we want in a wedding venue, it's in our budget...so, why not?
Why not indeed. Ah he's so clever, my future hubby to be :-)
I would also like to make an honorable mention to the following venues:
-Salt Restaurant
-AQWA
Both are great venues, and both have awesome function coordinators who were really lovely and easy to deal with.
1st December 2012 - bring it on baby!
