Lapland planning begins

Wedding is all booked for the 20th December 2013. This year!! It's already coming around too fast. I rang around a few places and found that most weddings are held in Dec/Jan so we thought, might as well do it this year.
The place that i loved the most for the venue was at the Snow Princess Hotel. They have this cute little Kota (Tipi) that i thought looked ultra cute. Here's a picture off the website.


There is a beautiful roaring fire in the middle of the venue. I've scoured Trip Adviser too of other peoples trips to Lapland, it's looks lovely inside. For the wedding they will decorate with candles and old fashioned lanterns.

My favourite colours are red & green so i am thinking, red, green and gold theme. Obviously I don't have as much to plan as a usual wedding so this colour scheme is for me, my bridesmaid who is my lovely big sister and the button holes etc for Alan and the other men. My dad, his step dad and the brother-in-law.

All the in's and out's of the wedding aren't sorted yet. Not sure what time we are getting married what we are doing after etc but we are sorting all this out now.

I've obviously been searching the web for ideas. I went wedding dress shopping last Saturday with my mum & Alan's mum. It was more fun than I though. I wouldn't say i was a total tomboy but I'm kinda in between. The thought of trying on loads of over sized dresses that made me look like a toilet roll holder was not very encouraging. All the dresses that I've seen on google too aren't too meringue like. But everyone kept saying that I'd like something that i didn't think I would. (Which secretly annoys me, I know what I like, OK?!) I was right, or maybe it was a bit of stubbornness but the big meringue style ones were not my cup of tea at all, however, they were not as bad as I thought and they did look good so I have changed my mind slightly. Not for me though as I have to get the thing over there so don't want to get anything too big.
I will do a little mood board and post again with my ideas.

Bye for now x
