    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh {sarah} that is so cool! PZ do it like that, do it like that! An engagement party / wedding.

    I really love the idea of a surprise wedding, and maybe to get people coming tell them theres going to be a surprise they don't want to miss! Make out like you're going to tell them its twins or something hehehehehehe

    Lol I'd have to get the dress custom made, it'd be huge! Maybe just a pretty white maxi for me Sarah that really does sound beautiful!

    Aww! But Lets see how gorgeous mah big fat preggy bum will be at 37ish weeks haha.
    Wear a bustle skirt hun^^

    I think that's a gorgeous idea and the bonus is that people who REALLY CARE will rock up IYKWIM. People feel obligated when it's a wedding but not everyone will go to a birthday. Does that make sense?

    Plus those that don't rock up, their loss!

    I think it is a lovely idea. I too would be worried about no shows but if you think that won't be an issue, sorted!!

    But I'm a bit stuck on this bit...

    DF is a bit meh about the idea, but he's a bit meh because he wants a $40,000 budget Sooo not happening hehe.
    So HE wants the big foofy ( ) wedding and YOU want low key, intimate, no fuss? Bit of a reversal from the typical bride and groom!!

    Go for it hun. Sounds lovely.

    It was beautiful & something spoken about for ages afterwards because it was so unexpected It was funny, everyone was worried about the little girl who was "sick" and wondered why they were taking so long to come back to the party. LOL
