I've not started my PJ yet.

I'm saving that and trying on dresses until I have my ring! (Which hopefully wont be more than a month or two niw, as we're going to the jewellers very soon!)

I am getting very tempted to start a draft one so it's ready to go as soon as I'm officially engaged, Lol.

Also, I think I should wait until 2009 at least to start a PJ for a 2011 wedding! Little too soon maybe?

I'm jsut SO glad I found the DIS, I can't believe how magical DFTW's are, and that I could have considered getting married somewhere else!!

Jack even said to me the other day - "Whenever I think about our wedding, I can't imagine it not being in front of the window with the Castle in the background" So the magic has even gotten to him!

Haley, your engagement story was so very cute!

Your plans sound wonderful so far, enjoy the planning process, it goes FAST!!! Trust me.

I can't wait for the rest of your plans. Talk to you soon!

Hey Hayley, I am so glad you posted on here. I was having trouble keeping up with different sites so its great I can just come on here and find your journal. Can't wait to hear about more of your plans.

[Eeyore's Tailfinder]

I JUST CALLED DISNEY!

She took my details and a wedding consultant will call us back in 1-2 days I was worried I'd be too far out, but in a couple days we'll have a Consultant!

I haven't been really doing anything much with our wedding planning over Christmas and that, but this is exciting!!

[Chilly]

Everything you have planned sounds wonderful, it is great to see so many UK brides on here.

[mcarthur205]

Your plans sound great Hayley. I bet you can't wait for a DFTW to call you back! Keep us updated!

[Eeyore's Tailfinder]

Eek! Now I could burst, I'm so excited!

Just got a call back from Disney - wasn't expecting them to call back until tomorrow or the day after, so I am very impressed!!

Diane is our wedding consultant and she sounded absolutely lovely on the phone - has anyone else had her? She is going to e-mail me some information over so DF and I can have a look through!

It feels a tiny bit more real now, and may be my behind in gear to send our Save the Dates out!!

[Disney-Bride2010]

I have Diane as my wedding coordinator too!

[malibustacey]

Omg- Diane is my consultant too- i rang up Disney from UK on Monday night, and they lady on the phone said someone would be in contact with me, and last night, i recieved an email from Diane - i said that the best way of contact is through emal.. and she emailed me!!

I let her know some info of what we want, and that we wanted to come out to see her in March, as that is the only time we can come until the wedding..

it is proper exciting!

[Eeyore's Tailfinder]

LOL Stacey, I just left a message on your PJ saying, Diane is my consultant too!! I should have checked here first, I'm just so excited!

Let me know how you get on in March!!

[Eeyore's Tailfinder]

OK, I've sort of neglected my PJ a bit - I thought once I had one I'd be updating every 5mins, but it just doesn't feel real, and I love reading other people's PJs! (So that's my excuse!)

So here's where we're at so far:

I called Disney! They called me back the next day and assigned me a consultant: Diane She e-mailed me loads of different info that I could look through. We have a DFTW Consultant!!

I've made our STDs and made a sample, they need a little tweaking, but I love them! We're planning on printing them and sending them out towards the end of the month. They're designed like airline tickets and they do look really cute! I'll post a screen shot once I'm on my Mac. I'm between 2 minds as to order those little sticky 'diamonds' and stick them somewhere, as well as perforating the tearaway bits, but that might be taking it a bit too far.

I've been to one wedding fayre last Sunday! It was fun looking at all the table covers and bits and bobs like that, but looking at the venue made me glad we're doing it in Disney! We might have a small wedding, but we'll have fun!

At the Fayre, there was a local dress shop, with a beautiful dress in gold with them. I've always wanted a white wedding dress, and I'd still like one, but now I think I'm open to other things. The dress does come in white and light pink also. The more I look at the dress, the more I love it, so I have to go and try it on.

This is not the dress, but I did like this one before I saw the one at the Fayre:

It's the Maggie Sottero Capri Royale

The One?



It's Victoriana by Maggie Sottero. I'd seen it on the website before and thought it looked pretty, but it was beautiful IRL! It looked like Belle's dress! DF was with me at the wedding fayre, and it caught his eye as well and told me to go ask how much it was so I know he likes it. I told him I couldn't have it now as he'd seen it, but there's no way he'll remember it I'd like a bit underskirt thingy on it though, so it's a bit more princessy

I e-mailed a photo of it to my mam and she said it was beautiful. I have to go try it on, but knowing my luck, it'll look rubbish on me!

[Chilly]

I love both those dresses.

[Eeyore's Tailfinder]

I LOVE the Victoriana, the more I look at it, I want it

I hope I love it when it's on!
