Unhappy Its all going wrong...

I should have left about 30 mins ago, but since then, my crown fell out, Ben's trousers are too short (which means there's a good chance all the others are) and Ben's dad's tails haven't arrived.

This isn't funny any more.

I swear to god I'm going to sue pronuptia. The kilt didn't arrive yesterday, and now all the above.

I've also got a nice dental appointment to look forward to with a new (and possibly scary) dentist in Richmond.

Mella!!!

Don't panic. Things always go wrong before a wedding. Its traditional. Go and get your tooth fixed, the dentist will be lovely I am sure, and then see what can be done about the trousers. At the end of the day, if they are a wee bit short, it isn't going to make too much difference. I am sure there is someone who can take them down a touch.

I am also sure the tails will arrive, but if they don't, is there another jacket he can wear? Try not to let it get to you too much(easy to say I know) and have faith that it will all work out in the end.

Thinking of you and sending big calming, soothing vibes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Love Jessx

Mel

A MASSIVE to you

Just take a deep breath and deal with one thing at a time.
Tomorrow WILL be a perfect day

Do the trousers come from far away?, if not, go back in to the shop and kick up an almighty fuss!! - This is your special day and you're not asking much - give em hell


Are you going to dentist today I take it? - don't worry, it could have happened tomorrow, at least he/she can do something about it

Have a relax and a swift , ok it's only 11am but sod it!!

Mel - Big hugs flower - take 10 deep breaths do a sun salutation and have a large G&T. Things will sort themselves out and you will be fine...

Good luck with the sorting out ..

A drink would be fantastic right now.

Ben's at pronuptia now. He's making them sort the trousers out because they're so short you can see his socks when he walks! They even said it wasnt' their fault!! like ben would have grown 2 inches without him noticing! Gits...

He's going to find out what they intend to do about the tails - apparently they ordered them from a different pronuptia and that one posted it with the incorrect postage. Sounds like a load of crap to me because how the hell would they know about it unless it had been done intentionally.

I have nothing to do right now cos i'm all packed. Just waiting for ben to get back with the car. Though will probably have to grab the bus to richmond cos I'll be cutting it fine else.

Think I will grab muffins on the way back though - if the dentist lets me of course..

Don't panic sweetie, you'll be absolutely fine. My crown fell out before the wedding, and I decided not to get it fixed until afterwards (actually I'm completing the work today!!!)

The clothes will be fine - nobody will notice, just make sure the boys wear black socks (this was me laying Marks undies out the day before!! )

Have another large G&T from me, and just relax.

You WILL BE FINE.

Sending you all my love

Lo xxx

lo - how long did you leave the crown for? my dentist said i could leave it a couple of weeks but that they'd rather I didn't because they might have to reshape it or something if the root grows. you can't see it or anything. but i thought i might do more damage by not getting it sorted today...

(head aches)

I left it for a month, until after the wedding and everything had calmed down, and got them to put a temporary filling in to stop any changes etc. When that fell out I thought it was time to get it all fixed properly!!

Hope you are doing your deep breathing excercises, keep smiling, we are all right here behind you

Deep breaths, just remember it's nothing that can't be fixed - and when everything goes perfectly tomorrow, it will feel all the better for it. Hang in there!

Mella - you must be in a blind panic! Try to stay calm (v. easy for me to say!) and be relaxed in the knowledge that I too will be suing Pronuptia - they've made a pig's ear of H2Bs suit (again, not their fault , yeah right) and the BMs dresses.

EVERYTHING WILL GO PEFECTLY TOMORROW - if it doesn't just remember you're marrying the man of your dreams and you will look back and laugh one day.

Have a brilliant day - lots of luck tomorrow and for the start of your married life together.

Remember to come back with tons of photos!

Got my crown back in, and the suits all arrived in time on Friday morning and fit!!! Only a couple of hitches on friday morning, but all were sorted out by the fab staff at rowton.

Everything was perfect on the day. Though I was completely unprepared for being so overwhelmed when I arrived at the church. It was bloody scary and I wanted to compose myself before going in, but since I was a bit late, the vicar rushed me in.

When saying my vows I got all choked up and nearly couldn't finish. Loads of people came up to me afterwards and said I'd made the all get emotionala and it seems the whole church shed tears. Rahahahaaaaaa!!
