Curzon Hall demonstration

Not much has been happening wedding related but on Monday night Ben and I will be heading over to Curzon Hall (venue) for their Bridal Expo.

The words "Bridal Expo" tends to make me cringe these days. Sweet little sis and I did 3 or 4 of them last year and we found that they are just a bunch of sales teams trying to take your money. Nothing I saw at the Expo's have we chosen, lol! Perhaps I should send that to the organisers as feedback.

So why are we going to another one?

Well one of the lovely people responsible for my happiness on the 14th of November (aka, The "Wedding Manager") recommended we go to see the function rooms set up, with cakes on display, ceremony extra's etc. All that basically translates to them setting up all their lovely rooms so we will spend more...but hopefully we will get a good idea of what we get for our money.

Since I cannot drag you along I downloaded some photos from their website - apparently this is what we get for our $XXX per head :)


Yummy food


The brand new ceremony pavilion that they completed a few months ago and where we have asked to have our ceremony.


The function room set up for a wedding



Curzon - the Castle :)




So you can see the peak :)

After that our focus for the next 4 is as follows;

1. Finalize guest list as its time for those invitations to be made. We mail them out next month.
2. Measure up Belle for the flowergirl dress
3. Order bridesmaids dresses
4. Order remaining suits
5. Order cakes
6. Order flowers

August will be getting the invitations out - then its pretty darn official, lol!

September will be the Bridal Shower

October the Hens and Bucks weekends (yes...we don't do just "hens nights" but "hens days" lol) I know nothing about what has been organized as apparently it is all a surprise.

November...well...its Ben's birthday of course and time to sky dive!!!

Oh yeah...and the wedding, ha, ha! *Kidding*
