Hi everyone
I have posted before, but so much has happened since then!!
Just to recap, Ill start from the beginning and go from there, so Ill apologise now if you get bored half way through
Background
Philip and I got engaged at the Magic Kingdom WDW in front of Cinderellas Castle in June 2006, he presented me with one of those cute little Mickey Mouse rings as he knows how fussy I can be and that I would want to choose my own engagement ring!
After that everything was sort of put on hold, we bought our first house together and have spent most of the past couple of years getting it just they way we want it. At the start of this year I accepted a position working abroad on rotation... it was such a hard decision as it took me away from home for long periods at a time but we felt that it was the right thing to do as it would help bulk up what was a depleted savings account!
At the start of my second trip, it finally hit us that wed put everything on hold for long enough and now we wanted to start planning our wedding and of course finally set a date! I had loved the sound of a Disney Wedding, but was terrified of what my mum would say she attends church on a weekly basis and had always dreamed of her little girl getting married at the church where she was 40 years ago. With the support of Phil however i had made up my mind i didnt want to settle for something that i knew i wasnt goin to be happy with.... i wanted to get married in WDW, its where we got engaged and it just felt right.... so the date was set (after a lot of family arguments with both my side and Phils) the 15th June 2009 it is!!
So, where did we go from here...

thankfully a trusty colleague offered to take the documents back to Aberdeen and give them to my family so that was one crisis resolved, now it was time to scrape my dad from off the floor when i told him that it was time to cough up the deposit for the wedding! 
i really better start making some decisions though... im worried that its slightly to early as its exactly 6 months before the wedding, but im hoping that if i have everything organised early then i can relax slightly lol
And you must be so excited about your Planning Session you must take LOTS of photos! I cant wait to hear all your ideas and good luck
