Well its all over, my single days are dead and burried (thank god, I never want to go throught all that again) I’m a HAPPLY MARRIED man.
The run up
The week before was a nightmare for both me and Lynsey, stress, last minute arrangements.
It wasn’t that bad. We had do the last minute arrangements, conferm time of cars, check that the photographer knew what time to be there, make the order of service and get bytey in his suit.
So heres how it played out. Monday I’m working and lynsey is get her hair sorted, Tuesday I’m working and Lynsey is stress about her hair and getting her wedding dress sorted.
Wednesday I’m not work, I’m having to get up at 6 in the morning to get Bytey and Andrea from the airport, and its the international airport, so its about 9.45, 10 o’clock when we get back to bangor, drope Bytey and Andrea at my fokes house and mum makes breakfast. I get Lynsey form home and we head to my fokes for some breakfast and then into Bangor to get the stuff for the Order of service.
Thursday was the one day when all hell nearly borke loos.
As we had got most of the part for the order of service, we also had all the suits and a lot of things we thoguth we had to do had been done, we went to get the Cake. MY GOD how in f*&)’s name can it be so stressfull picking up a bloody cake, Marks and Spencers can make it that way. First off the ladey at customer service has no Idea that a cake is really for collection let a lone been ordered. This starts to worry Lynsey, but Lynsey had all the documentation with her (something I wouldnt have had) and we get it sorted. Now I dont meen to be condacending but how in the name of everything that is holy do not f*&(ing see a 3 foot high cake, made up of 3 seperate cake boxes tide together with sicker on top with all the details and Lynseys name on it???
SO we get the cake and are checking it, theres no rod to hold it in place, M&S are like, we sorry but they have to be there, at this stage I’m seeing red, but Lynsey put the point accross (where as I would have only yelled at them and made them out to shit) that they are not there. M&S give us the name of a lady in local cake making shop who can give us the rod and help us out. They must do this all the time as they prackically had her number on speed dial. This gets sorted and lost of call to make user that the cheifs at the Old Inn can fit the rods properly. The rest of the day was spent mostly creating the order of service, Which Lynsey made and they look amazing and everyone said how professional they where. I finished off the last minute tweeks need the to font size and style.
I started to print them off, Now at this stage I was starting to sweet a bit as computers never really want to work properly when you want them to, but Rebellion did my prouid. I decided to print them off in batch of 5 that way we wouldn’t loss to many if anything did go wrong.
About 9pm I go round to my fokes to tweek my speach, and spend an hour or so with Bytey and Andrea as I’ve not seen them at all that day as they went to Belfast.
Friday morning comes run and we have to be at the Old Inn Crawfordburn for the wedding rehusile with the cake, table plans, instructions on what to do and how we want things laid out. All goes well and everything get sorted out. Bytey and Andrea hang out with us for a while, then Lynsey not happy with her hair style goes back to the stylest to get something else sorted out. Most of the afternoon is spent chilling and playing PS2 with Bytey and Andrea, much fun was had by all.
Lynsey and I spend the rest of the night together alone.
