Wonderful Hen weekend
Jemma in Community Conversations, on April 14, 2014 at 5:00 AM

I had my hen party this weekend, and it was really wonderful. The girls arrived around 10.30am for finger sandwiches, wraps, rolls, mini tartlets, cake pops and Bucks Fizz (mimosas). Then we headed to...

Trying to stay motivated
Jemma in Fitness and Health, on April 10, 2014 at 8:47 AM

Since the 26th January I have now lost about 15lb. I'm really pleased with how it's going, especially as I've never managed to lose weight before, and I want to keep it up long term. I'd like to lose...

NWR: Please send positive vibes to my friend
Jemma in Fitness and Health, on April 11, 2014 at 3:52 AM

I'm not religious, but I do believe in some kind of karma and positive vibes. I found out this morning that one of my best friends has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. She's quite upbeat about it...

Really pleased with hair trial
Jemma in Wedding Attire, on April 7, 2014 at 8:26 AM

I finally had my hair trial on Saturday (after it got cancelled before) and I'm really pleased with how it came out. Naturally I have very curly, very frizzy hair so I'm really happy that I managed to...

Step dad situation - UPDATE
Jemma in Planning, on April 3, 2014 at 9:45 AM

So, for those who don't know, to cut a long story short my step dad (and boss) agreed to give me away. Then there was a whole argument about the invitation for my older step brother who I have neither...

Am I being unreasonable? Slight rant.
Jemma in Etiquette and Advice, on April 3, 2014 at 7:18 AM

We have made it clear on our invitations that due to limited space at the venue we cannot invite children other than close relatives of the bride and groom (limited space, plus honestly we decided we...

Engagement photo shoot clothes - pics
Jemma in Wedding Attire, on April 2, 2014 at 4:55 AM

So yesterday I was asking for advice about what to wear. I think I've settled on these two outfits - what do you think? Are stripes ok? The jeans are a cropped pair that last year I could wear but...

What to wear on engagement shoot?
Jemma in Wedding Attire, on April 1, 2014 at 5:54 AM

So, we have our engagement shoot on Saturday and I'm having a sartorial crisis! I was thinking I'd wear blue jeans and a sheer green top, but then I'm wondering how well a sheer top will photograph?...

Would you know the answers about your FH?
Jemma in Community Conversations, on March 27, 2014 at 12:52 PM

So, my MOH is organising a game for my hen party (bachelorette) which involves me answering the questions below about my FH, and him providing what he thinks the answers would be for me. I did wonder...

Jemma in Fitness and Health, on March 26, 2014 at 9:57 AM

So I've been using MyFitnessPal to track my calorie intake and have been gradually bringing my weight down. I started being more healthy in January, then in February started being more serious about...

Mini bouquet first attempt - pic
Jemma in Do It Yourself, on March 25, 2014 at 6:22 AM

So I'm tying my bouquet, the bridesmaids' and the buttonholes. I made a first practice attempt yesterday - it was way easier than I was expecting and I'm really pleased with the outcome. Ignore the...

First fitting sigh of relief! Pics!
Jemma in Wedding Attire, on March 24, 2014 at 6:43 AM

So I was quite nervous before my first fitting for two reasons. One is that the dress is still a little more "snug" than I am hoping it will be on the day. It fits ok, it does up, but it will hang...

Jemma in Community Conversations, on March 21, 2014 at 11:54 AM

So excited about our cake! Edited with location question in comments - where to put it??
Jemma in Style and Décor, on March 20, 2014 at 6:28 AM

We weren't going to have a proper wedding cake due to budget, but decided that we wanted to do it properly and would just suck it up on the cost. We met with a lovely lady last night who is going to...

NWR: I do love a bargain!
Jemma in Community Conversations, on March 18, 2014 at 4:49 AM

The face wash I use is normally £11 a bottle, but I had a £5 voucher for it. I went into the shop and found that it was on a 3 for the price of 2 offer, AND they let me use the £5 voucher AND gave me...

What is your something old?
Jemma in Community Conversations, on March 14, 2014 at 11:59 AM

My new is my dress and many other things, my borrowed is my veil, my blue is a topaz tennis bracelet, but I am stuck on something old. What are you using? How old is it? Any ideas?

I've found The One - reading that is!
Jemma in Planning, on March 7, 2014 at 11:21 AM

I've just found this reading and it actually made me tear up a little as it's beautiful. I can't wait for my wonderful friend Melissa to read this at the wedding. The One. When the one whose hand...

Finally a pic of me in my dress!
Jemma in Wedding Attire, on March 6, 2014 at 5:19 AM

I cannot share via Facebook, or show FH, so I wanted to share here! I loooooove my dress! It just needs shortening a lot, and steaming a lot, and it'll be perfect :-) I still can't get a good picture...

Major family drama because of wedding. So upset right now.
Jemma in Etiquette and Advice, on March 1, 2014 at 11:33 AM

My step dad is threatening not to come to the wedding because my step brother (who I have neither seen nor spoken to in 15 years) only got an evening invitation. Even when I said I'd invite him to the...
