Time to shape up, people!!

If we are going to be able to fit into a fab suit for the wedding, then it's time to get serious about a bit of exercise and calorie control.

Last night Richard and I took a lovely power walk down to the harbour together. We talked about the ceremony and how we both saw it playing out, discussed catering, menu cards etc. it was all terribly romantic.

I have started a chat room community page on Facebook called "two boys marry" which gives guests a forum to chat about carpooling, house sharing etc. it will also serve to give you alerts when new blogs have been posted here. If you like Facebook, go there and like it now.

The HORROR!!!!!

You can just imagine the ripples of terror that swept through our perfect world when we read the article below about The Elandra. http://www.cairns.com.au/article/2012/01/11/200241_local-news.html Totally spun us out, and the wedding planner (Sharon) at The Resort was unavailable to take our calls until just a few days ago. Crisis is now gladly over. We spoke to Sharon and all is well. The resort was totally smashed during cyclone Yasi earlier last year, and they have been making do with carrying on their operation around the damage, but have recently made the decision to close down for a few months to renovate and repair. Our wedding will be the first scheduled once the renovations are omelette, so word on the street is that we'll all be the first to enjoy the the pristine new property in all it's glory, and Sharon has promised that our group will enjoy the 'sparkle' of being the first wedding party through the resort. So what started out as a major drama, and blossomed into something great. B x

Finally... The invites are out!!!

Here's Richard posting the invitations FINALLY!!! We had a few drama's with the printing and getting the delivery of the final printed invites, as they got lost in the xmas postal nightmare. Richard turned into a bit of a Groomzilla because he wasn't 100% happy with the 'stock' the printers had used, but I convinced him that getting the invites out was more important than the way they felt under finger.



A quick tip for all of you planning on flying to the wedding. The best airport to fly into is Cairns, but you can also fly into Townsville as well (the travel time to Mission Beach is a little longer ex Townsville).
