Cake - I found this Cake topper on EBay - Seller Rushmer30 and I think it looks great costs 25.00 pounds buy it now and 2.95 P&P, I haven't yet got it as I want to sort out the cake first and check it will work. We have decided on a 3 layer cake like in the pic. Fruit layer at the bottom and 2 sponge layers. White Icing and silver ribbon round the layers.

My parents have a friend who makes cakes for weddings and things so going to see if she can make the cake.

Had to laugh the other night. Me and Dave were discussing cakes and looking at the websites for ideas etc and getting ideas on pricing and Dave came out he'd have a go at makeing the cake. he said do a prototype and if I and the family like it then he'd do it lol.

will have to see what happens with that. I'll keep you posted.

Dresses - from the first time I started looking at wedding dresses I have loved this dress by a designer called Bonny. This Dress is Style 449. I love the bodice mainly and the colour. I have yet to try it on but have found a shop called The Clothes Horse in Bath that can order it in so I can have a try on. But I have a feeling its going to cost a bit more than my budget will allow.

This second dress is one I found on EBay which is custom made and I can change the red to a royal blue which is cool ( see pic below thats the type of blue I'm thinking). But have heard a few horror storys which is makeing me have second thoughts. I love the back to this dress.
There are so many similar styles too on EBay they are lush and are made in china by various sellers at the fraction of the cost to here which is the tempting side.

I'm not sure yet as of what to do, though I did have one idea and that was to entwine the two above dresses the bodice of the first and the back of the second but in royal blue. Not sure how i would do it and of course the embroidery wouldnt be the same. I did find a pattern that I'm sure could be used to create my idea. But then I think this method would become quite expensive.

So for now I'm going to carry on browsing, see if I can get to that shop The Clothes Horse in Bath to try the Bonny Dress on and see if it suits me. Just got to wait for a day when my mum is free.

Tiara - I found a Tiara on Ebay Seller Jackylumlum also which I think would go wonderful with either of the dresses above but I'm not getting it till I know for deffinant which or What dress I'm getting.

It's 2.99 with 5.99 p&p which is cool.

Ok where shall I start, up till now I had been storing all my thoughts and ideas for my wedding in a powerpoint presentation so that was easy to look back on and get an idea of the way things were panning out. How sad am I lol. Well now I'm going to try and put all of it on to this blog. Now this is a task as Im not overly good with Blogging so wish me luck, so here goes:

So I have decided on:

Venue: The Copplerige Inn Motcombe (we have already booked it which is fantastic).

and some how to encorperate butterflys in too, as I found a wonderful topper for a cake that I want to get.

Hi my name is Tracey, I'm the person behind Vixen's Scrapping and on the 15th of August 09 I will be getting married to my Fiance Dave, we have been together for about 6yrs and have 3 wonderful boys. We first met at college but it was a little while after we left that we met up again and got together.
Here you will embark on our preparations to the wedding Day. I been gathering so many ideas I thought why not share them. This way if anyone reading has any ideas they'd like to share they can post them in the comment section.
