And finally a few of our friends doing their best 'Friends' impression by the fountain in the hotel grounds.

It set a trend and i've got about 15 pictures like this all of different people of different ages.

Tee hee

As you can see we also put some black & white cameras on the tables and they came out really well.

Me too, thought the wedding obsession would have worn off by now, but it doesn't.

I'm still so nosy when it comes to weddings. My chum is getting married in November and i'm her (gulp) Maid of Honour!!!!

So i'm compensating for my wedding fixation by helping her organise hers.

What i'll do after November 2nd is anyones guess!!

Dawn

Thanks for sharing your pics - you look as though you were having the time of your life! Your cake looked great and you were stunning!
We've bought 10 colour disposable cameras and 3 black and white but I think I'll only put two of the b&w out and use the other one for honeymoon.......want a really good b&w pic of me and my new hubby though - I think they look more dramatic!

Hi Mel,

B&W disposable cameras were from Boots. They work out a bit more expensive than the ones you buy from ******** and don't include developing, but the photos were absolutely spot on!

Stace,

10 WEEKS!!! I would have died waiting.

Our BM took them in to be developed and said that Boots offered him a three hour/24 hour or 3 day service.

He took the three day one because it was cheaper and had them put in an album for us when we returned.

How comes 10 weeks??

Ooh, forgot to add that the Boots throwaway cameras come in spangly silver or gold.

Cool!

PS didn't say it before - but your dress is lovely!! Did you spend much time having to pull it up? I'm going strapless, too and am thinking of holding it up with string or something!!

Pull it up????

Nah, glad to say that it fit like a glove.

During the fittings, I did have the same worry as it never seemed to feel like it would stay up but by the time the dress had been taken in it felt like it had been glued to me.

DON'T WORRY. The last thing you will have to think about is it falling down because it absolutely will not do that.

The only thing I had to worry about was actually being able to breathe in it - it was soooooo tight!!

At my first fitting, the bust bit was sticking out beyond my chest, but they are going to take it in.

The bodice part also sags a bit when you move (if that makes any sense). Any ideas what could stop that?

I bet you think I've got a really freaky dress or figure now...
