Wedding Planner Journal
Having searched the internet for a good wedding planning journal for my boyfriends’ SIL to be, I was delighted to find one about 15mins away from me in Cork!! Problem was it was the night of December 23rd when I found it and we wanted it as a Christmas present. I e mailed the company and received a prompt e mail back asking for my mobile number. They came in on Christmas Eve to meet me so that I would have the journal to give as a Christmas gift. Lovely lady, amazing service and a local company….worth checking out. The company is called http://www.giftslikethese.com and here’s the link to the journal

Reflection Poem
HANDS
These are the hands of your best friend, young and strong and full of love for you, that are holding yours on your wedding day as you promise to love each other today, tomorrow and forever.
These are the hands that will work along side yours as together you build your future.
These are the hands that will passionately love you and cherish you through the years, and with the slightest touch will comfort you like no other.
These are the hands that will hold you when fear or grief temporarily comes your way.
These are the hands that will countless times wipe the tears from your eyes, tears of sorrow and tears of joy.
These are the hands that will tenderly hold your children.
These are the hands that will give you support and encouragement to chase down your dreams.
These are the hands that will hold you tight as you struggle through difficult times.
These are the hands that will give you strength when you need it.
These are the hands that will lift your chin and brush your cheek as they raise your face to look into eyes that are filled with overwhelming love for you.
These are the hands that even when wrinkled and aged will still be reaching for yours, still giving you the same unspoken tenderness with just a touch.
Wedding To Do List and when to do it!
Here’s a general idea of when you should be booking the various suppliers. Obvisouly if there is someone that you particularly want the earlier you contact them the better. Don’t worry, they won’t think you’re a bridezilla
Wedding Budget Planner
Thanks to yet another of the WOLlies I’ve now got a budget planner for you to download. For some reason it won’t allow me to upload an excel spreadsheet so I’ve embedded it into a word document and all you have to do is double click on the page and you can still edit it as if you were using excel
