Welcome to the Ten Week Chaotic Wedding Countdown

Welcome to day one of my blog. Do you know how hard it is to find a willing victim to whom you can chat at will about all things wedding without them making a break for freedom at the first opportunity? I do.

Mothers can be handy for just this function, indeed it is part of the job description that as a mother of the bride you must immerse yourself fully in your daughter's up and coming nuptials and all the minute details associated with it. However I find as I get older that my own mother rather than calming me down has somehow developed the ability to increase my stress levels to breaking point, sometimes just by speaking. Add to this the fact that she has done the whole 'Mother of the Bride' thing with me once before in 1996 and probably thinks her work on this subject has long been done. Therefore as a perfect substitute for the mother of the bride figure in my up and coming wedding plans, I intend to make use of this blog!

I rub my hands in glee as I contemplate that I can pass my opinion on all the minute challenges heaped upon me by family, friends and wedding plans as my transformation to Mother in Step Family hurtles ever closer. And best of all without having to subject any of my poor family to my grouching. Let's begin!
