the magazine stack grows...

ok, so until a week ago we had a growing collection of Time Out (What's on in London guide...) and The Economist magazines taking over our little flat. Now we have another danger threatening to take over the place: wedding magazines! we need to move ; )
today i got my third in a week, and it was a really great one full of good ideas on dresses etc. it's so exciting... thoughts are flying all over the place: where? how? when? and (very importantly) what will i wear? i've done the only thing i could,bought a file and am trying to organise my thoughts in to seperate sections. only i already have 10 sections (budget, venue, bride, groom, bridesmaid / best man, food, flowers, service, party and 'other little bits') and i have already realised i've missed such crucial areas as 'photos'... i wonder, if you successfully organise a wedding, can you put it on your cv as organisational skills?!
right now it's all just really exciting though... so many thoughts flying around. in a year i'll probably be much more stressed!

Current favourite thoughts:
- an evening wedding, at about 5pm, that goes straight into a night party
- formal evening wear dress - how great would all our men look in james bond style tuxedos?!
- held in a hotel, a beautiful old place where we can party away and then crash straight afterwards and then wake up and have breakfast together... see this http://www.theelvetham.co.uk/ as an example...
- family and friends involved in the service, we would love this to be a celebration for everyone... so dig out those poetry books!!

Of course, some of this could change! but just so you know...

Good night!
B xx
