    We're barely done any planning but the worst thing that COULD happen would be either of us changing our minds about marrying the other person I think.

    The worst thing was when I put my husband's passport in the washing machine three weeks before we were due to fly out on our honeymoon. He had to go to hospital after his stag do when he fell over and hit his head so I had no sleep through worry. I put his jeans in the washing machine without checking it properly. Fortunately we managed to get him a new passport, but the skin of our teeth, and got the new passport on the day he went and applied for one. £128 was a bit steep but was necessary.

    Another downer was when I had to 'demote' my previous MOH because she showed no enthusiasm and did nothing that I asked, including booking the wrong hotel. I promoted my SIL/bridesmaid to MOH and she was perfect. I felt awful demoting her because I was worried it would tear our friendship and I'd upset her, but she seemed OK with it, as far as I was aware.

    Apart from that the wedding planning went smoothly.

    That's why I'm not changing my passport until it's due to run out. I can still go on holiday in my maiden name.

    Thankfully, my passport doesn't run out until long after our wedding/honeymoon so I'll change my name on it when we get back.

    My guy looks like someone you'd see on Crimewatch in his passport photo - because he has to take his glasses off and you're not supposed to smile in the pic, he looks very different from normal.

    :( passports suck haha. I think so far the worst thing to happen to me is the cake.. My friend who i used to work for said she will make the cake for us and we pay her 50 quid. gave her the idea which i love and she said yes id love to. Then 2 weeks ago she said she cant make it. :( i know i still have 20 months roughly till we get married but i find it hard to trust people :( x

    I was 16 when I had my passport photo taken, at the time I kept laughing whilst trying to keep a straight face and mum threatened to not renew my passport so I tried to keep a straight face - instead I looked like a moody teenager! Every time I go through passport control in another country they always comment how moody I looked when I was actually trying to not laugh.

    Same here, my nan died in August and it makes me sad knowing she wont be there. Means i'll now have no grandparents there. Other than that, if all my suppliers let me down that would be a pretty big deal and potentially give me a breakdown, but hopefully that wont happen!

    We probably wont have a honeymoon abroad as h2b doesnt like flying, so we wont need to worry about passports, which is good as mine runs out next year and I look like a ghost as I'm so pale and my hair was blond at the time!

    Steph if you're going abroad for your honeymoon, you will need a new passport! You won't be able to travel with less than 6 months til expiry on it!

    Worst thing that could happen would be tom deciding he doesn't want to marry me anymore lol.

    The worst thing that has happened in my planning is a married into the family - family member did something really bad, now my mum & my sister wont be able to attend as we lost them. then what with all the stress over that situation my h2b decided to not be my h2b anymore!

    thankfully, h2b is now h2b again so things are starting to look up.

    lets just say there was assault charges, and numerous other charges to the married in person, now for their own safety & that of my kids, i dont know where the 2 women in my life are. the married in person is locked up atm. I cant go into more detail over a public forum, but it doesnt affect me too much anymore as i forced myself to believe i out-lived them as it was the only way to get me out of my state of depression after it in order to get my @rse out of bed & look after my kids. It all happened during my break from UKB.

    its not the first time this particular person has chosen badly! i was with her the first time, but having my own family now, i have to protect them, do whats best for them. i wish things could have been different (like her taking my advice in the first place, like me being a witness so that i could sign "mickey mouse" to make their marriage be invalid - mickey mouse being a fictional character obviously would invalidate the certificate... & yes i would have done that!) I knew things would end badly, just wish she had listened to me.

    i have to be, i have kids to think about. it took me a few months, especially with getting unwanted calls from "married in", had anti d's that weren't working, then one day i woke up to my kids screaming at eachother, fighting with eachother, kicking, hitting, & i suddenly thought... "if she could see me now, she'd kick my f-ing @rse!" told myself to get up & be the mum i should be, the mum i was before all of it. I took myself off the meds.

    I got myself back on track in a motherly sense, then decided I wasn't going to have any of this cr@p from my partner - I figured he obviously wanted to be with me, we were still an item even if we werent engaged anymore. I got back on here, had help from you ladies to write a poem which asked him to marry me, cooked a 3 course meal, ate by candle light, & made him read the poem!

    Why do i appear strong now? Because I hold my head up high, I smile through, because I have to! I'm needed!

    I found out about the passport thing a couple of years ago, an ex of mine had a holiday booked and had to get a new passport and fly the day after as they wouldn't let him board the plane lol

    It seems a bit stupid, I mean I could under stand a few weeks but not 6 bloody months....!

    Our best man got admitted to hospital a week before we were due to fly out to Vegas. He was gutted as he knew he wouldn't be able to make it. We considered postponing, but went ahead in the end. It wasn't the same without him and we were really worried about him too. I still can't listen to KT Tunstall's 'Black Horse and a Cherry Tree' as that's what I was listening to when we found out. It still makes me sad. He's doing OK now though.
