But just to repeat what everybody else has already said, this is YOUR big day, if your friend can't realize this then she has serious problems. Don't lose any sleep, or even waste a second worrying about it. Just enjoy a once in a lifetime experience.
You said your fiance is in the forces. Will he be in dress uniform on the big day? My brother wore his Army dress uniform at his wedding, and it really makes a man look great! The rest of us guys looked plain ordinary in comparison!
So, just one month to go! Are you having a hen night? Or are you too much of a lady?
The Manor House looks ideal, it will be a lovley setting.
My very best wishes.

Thanks BRG. Welcome to Fleets from me (a little late, I know). Is your brother still serving and what regiment is he in? My fiance is in the Royal Engineers.
He will be wearing his Number One dress uniform for the day and he has an evening uniform (the one which he wore, when he proposed to me), which he may change into for the night do. His best man, is also in the forces, so he will also be in his uniform. They will look absolutely dashing, especially my man! He has alot of medals, so its just as well he has a broad chest to put them all on. I am not sure if he will wear the cap. My fiance is a tall man, just under 6ft6, and I wonder if it will make him look even bigger. He is a foot taller than me.
As to the Hen night, it must be done! We will be out this weekend. Not all my friends can come, so I am having it in 2 parts. The first part is the cultured lady night. The second part (which will be the rowdy one) will be the weekend before the wedding. He will be having his stag this weekend also. We will be going to different places, so not to bump into each other. I just hope his friends dont do something horrible to him, like shave his eyebrow or handcuff him naked to a lamp post! You hear all sort of stories.
Uno and Archangel, its a shame you cant come over, we would have loved to have you. Be assured that we will toast our absent friends.
Uno, remember when I took you to Bletchley Park? They do weddings there, can you believe that? I must admit, it is expensive.

Thanks Kitty!
Ah! A stag night with a load of British Squaddies, that should be a quiet night out! While I have no doubt his mates will have a wee 'suprise' for him to mark the end of his bachelor days, they will make sure he makes it to his wedding in one piece. And as for your hen night, let your hair down lass! P Paint the town red!
As for my wee brother, yes he is still serving. He is in Army Intelligence(The Green Slime!) based in Chelsea, London. I think he also got married in his Number One dress, it was a dark blue uniform with a white belt & gloves. He wore his beret only as he stood at the alter waiting for his wife, when the ceremony started he removed it along wirh his gloves. You can see why the Royals get married in uniform, nothing looks better on a man.
BRG
PS- Your last Valentines Day as single people Kitty, anything special planed?

They do?! I wonder if a lot of math and history buffs have their weddings there? Did you ever get around to going back on a weekend when all the smaller museums were open? That place is just too big to see in a couple of hours, but it was very interesting. I keep meaning to read more on the place, but lately I haven't been able to find the time to stop and take a few deep breaths, never mind read a weighty tome about cryptology & WWII!
Best of luck to you and yours, kitty. I will be there in spirit, at least!

glad to hear that everything is going well. I have been majorly busy lately so that is why I have not been around much. RL has thrown me a major curve ball!

I will show photos of my big day, when I get them for those who want to see. Just remind me .
The hen and stag nights went without a hitch and I am glad to report that my fiance was left intact, and that includes his eyebrows! He also was not handcuffed in a compromising situation to a lamp post! So I was extremely relieved!
We have just over a week now until we tie the knot, and time is going fast. Everything is more or less paid for and the final arrangements have been confirmed.
Now all I have to worry about is; whether he turns up, pray that the weather improves and that nothing goes wrong. I am also worrying about how nervous or emotional I will get.
Does anyone have any tips?

Congrats Kitty.
Tips: Try to enjoy the day. It goes by quickly. Have some mutual rest time in your honeymoon. Just time to hang out and enjoy each other.

The best tip I can give you is to expect the worst, like a delay in the wedding getting started on time or the weather isn't going to co-operate. Take this from experience as I know what it is like as we had a half an hour delay the day I tied the knot last June. But all in all I wish you and your fiance the best!

The drive way is lovely, you can see the manor house through the trees. I hope they have a load of spring bulbs along it!
