We have done the seating plan! I feel as if it’s the biggest achievement of the wedding! No one tells you how difficult it is to do a table plan!

The top table was easy because we’d spent a little while deciding who was going to join us on the top table. We decided on our parents so that our best man and bridesmaids could sit with our friends and socialise.

But then, where do you start? Who do you seat first? It’s difficult to think where people go, and to think about how the tables will be arranged, as well. Some guests may take offence to being seated too far from the head table, or might want to sit with certain people. Trying to seat everyone where they’d like to sit on a seat limited table is really difficult.

We’ve finally got to grips with it though, and I think our seating plan is done.

Hello fellow B2B!  Delighted to make your acquaintance, especially via Claire’s great site which I love perusing as I plan for my own wedding. I’m really thrilled to join Fran, Angharad and Loulabelle as a guest blogger bride and hope you’ll enjoy my posts here on english-wedding.com and maybe even have a peek at my own site: www.awarwickshirewedding.com.

Relatively fresh-faced to the world of social media, I’m still finding my feet in the blogosphere and never would have believed you if, this time last year, you had told me that blogging and tweeting would become part of my everyday life.  Come to think of it, if you’d told me I would be getting married this year, I wouldn’t have believed you either.  So how did it all come about? Well, if you drop in at www.awarwickshirewedding.com, I’ll tell you how it all started last summer, not with a kiss, but with my discovery of a steam train in Somerset. Hope to see you there soon!

Lots of things have been happening! I can’t believe we’re down to double figures with the days to go!

My friends have been planning my very secret hen do. All I know is where we’re going, what time I need to be there and that at some point we will be eating! I love surprises but I’m so curious about what we’ll be doing! I really want to be sneaky and find out but in all honesty I do love surprises.

I’ve also been making small wedding purchases. I have some new crystals for the tables that better suit our colour scheme, and I bought some extra clear crystals because I wasn’t sure if one bag would be enough for 10 tables, plus the top table.

I’ve also bought a ring box for us to keep our wedding rings in. I use the box my engagement ring was in to keep it nice so I thought we could keep our wedding rings in a box.
