Bridesmaids
MOH and the Main Girls
Well here is the CLANG it is a Pleasure to welcome you my Girls!!

My ladies who have supported me throughout my life and are still here till this day.

Right now I am living in Canada and everyone is in England back home but they are still doing so much while we are miles away!!!!!!

The maid of Honour is my friend CHARLENE we have been friends since we 8 years old at Primary School....
Second in command is my little sis NORELLA that's my lady for life if you haven't already noticed my profile is named after her...

Next is my Cousin SHIRLEEN with her lovely daughter and PATRICE we have been friends before we where born our parents are really good friends from school days so we just naturally clicked. (Her parents are actually my sis's (Norells's) Godparents)..... and we too went to the same primary school we just call each other cousins

So this will be a WONDERFUL FAMILY AFFAIR!!!

Reception
FRIST DANCE
Hey there ladies just curious to know what SONG your opening the floor too..?

Is it a joint decision between you and you FI? or did one of you choose the song? .........

Who had the upper hand in this case?

At previous weddings that I have been too I have always seen the man singing to his Newly wife at their First Dance which I think is so Romantic

Baby Making
Starting a Family
I don't know you ladies and gents.... but have you ever wondered or been so curious as to how your child would look like?
That's if you haven't started them already..lol

To be honest with you I never wanted to try something like this because it freaked me out and toying with Nature and all.

So I took a chance and tried it out ...my other half would love a girl and they say this is how she would look I think she is gorgeous perfect mixture of the both of us

My Question is what do you think about these latest technologies?

Inspiration Board
Sticking to a Weight Goal
Ladies i never thought that I would be sharing this with you but I've gotta!!!
A few months back I was on the edge I gained 16 lbs in 16 weeks and I was a unhappy bunny ..
But I am glad to say that I have managed to loose 9 lbs so far .......

Being Self- employed and all it is very stressful dealing with you don't even dream of on a day to day basis can really take it's toll with binge eating or craving for food that is no good for you.

What I have been doing is keeping control of my calorie intake mixed with exercise, cardio and strength training; I also do a 3 day fast with just water and herbal tea no suger...
when you start to see results you really do feel energetic, fresh and most of all in control

I just thought I would share this with you

Any questions feel free to ask ?

Or if you have your own tips feel free to share it too

Food & Drink
For the children
After a long day......! it is imperative that the little ones are fed and what's better than to feed them with food and drinks that they are a custom to know!!

Lets face it.... children are more of a difficult audience to please...don't forget!!! you need a bit of something for everyone

Destination Wedding
My Ultimate Dream
Celebrity Style

Tropical weddings used to mean swagging a gazebo with tulle and having a steel pan play "Yellow Bird." Then along came party planner Preston Bailey, whose client list reads like an issue of People (Oprah! Donald! Regis!). Bailey turned this beach on Jamaica’s South Coast into the ultimate island wedding. His favorite touch? The spiky fans on the back of every chair. Way cool—just like the man. Location, Sandals Whitehouse European Village & Spa, sandals.com.

This is fit for any Queen forget about Celebrities ....... any one can have something as tranquil as this!!!!!

Something Blue!!
Signature Drink
Something Blue
A sea-and-sky color theme helps create a crisp, modern wedding that's heaven on earth
Toss a few fresh blueberries into your cocktails—we think they look prettiest in champagne—for an extra dash of summery flavor. A touch of crème de cassis gives the drinks a pretty, rosy glow.

Cake
The Main And Minis
I like the Traditional cake factor but I like the idea of having Mini Cakes for the guests to have a taster whilst at the reception and Main cakes
with the tiers can be given for when the guest go home.

Feedback Ladies don't you think that is a good idea?

Wedding Veil
Vintage Birdcage or Traditional?
I think that it will bee hard to decide wether to wear Normal veil or something with that little bit of edge.
This will be a tough choice !!!!

Ring
Engraved Rings
I like the thought of thick rings because it's just that more pronounced that a thin one.
...But then ... I would mind something with a bit of Bling and a Shine to it......
I am a sentimental type of girl so I do like the idea of getting the names engraved on the rings.....I think it makes those rings just that more special ....because it's yours and yours alone.

something tells me we have to go and get a custom made job!!!

Decoration
Tropical Colours to brighten anyone's day!!!
I think that contrast colours are so easy to work with, especially when you start to infuse the different shades shades together I think it great!!

Myself and my Fiance have been having problems with chosing a colour scheme but I think that I have found it.

Invitation
Something easy to wip out and keep without losing it
This is the style font that I like for the invitations

we will be getting married in the Caribbean so I think that a nice idea for Invitations will be in an image of a passport.

Flowers
Fresh or Not Fresh that is the Question?
Flowers in general does not cost a lot of money ....But!!.....especially when it comes to weddings they are expensive.

Will it be worth me buying fresh flowers or shall I order silk ones which one will turn out cheaper?
