Thanks for comments everyone, sorry @Hart86 for not responding sooner, theres been an issue on my previous account wo I created a new one. Thank you for asking and no offence taken at all, more than happy to answer any questions
Just over 6 weeks to go now!
In general, not as much as I thought we would - finding accessible venues was extremely easy considering we live out in the sticks and buildings are too old to be renovated/adapted!
The issues I've struggled with the most, was finding something to for my hen do which suits my needs - believe me it was difficult, in the end I've chosen for something plain and simple.
Another thing is peoples attitudes, not only towards the theme of our wedding but me as a disabled bride to be. When we tried giving our notice of marriage the first time round, the woman was extremely rude and treated me like I was an inconvenience - thankfully, the lovely gent who saw us the second time round really took my communication needs on board. He really was the best!
I've been meaning to post a few snippets of my articles that Magpie Wedding has published, I've been writing my entire planning journey for them as a series on their website. The two that have been published so far have been about my wedding dress shopping experience and the second was about finding an accessible wedding venue and I share my tips on how venues could be more accessible and inclusive -
Can I read them?
