Hi I'm new :o ) I've noticed there have been a few posts about Milly Bridal on here and I wondered if someone would be able to answer me a question.

We are working on the timings of our day, and it looks like there will be a gap of a couple of hours between our wedding breakfast finishing and our evening reception starting. We will have quite a few guests hanging around during this time, and I'd like to think of something to keep them from getting too bored! The whole…

Shoes
Ok so my absolute dream shoes arrived this morning the Melissa/Vivienne Westwood PVC ones that have popped up around here on numerous occasions, and I don't know why it came as a surprise to me but they don't fit, and I am absolutely gutted. There is nothing I hate more than my feet, and I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever…

Wedding Presents.....we'd rather have a honeymoon!
Hi all, After much discussion with my HTB over the weekend, we've decided instead of wedding presents we'd like to have a holiday/honeymoon instead. We've lived together for years, spent a fortune on our home, got most things we need, but have suffered massively with the credit crunch over the last 18 months. We've also…

StressStressStree
This is a bit complicated so sorry if it doesn't make sense. The pub we are in at the moment, we don't have a long term agreement for, just month to month, we would love a long term agreement but it isn't making enough money for us to pay what is being asked. Tomorrow we have to show people around who do want it on a long…

Additional meals/parties
Just registered for project wedding. Looking at their checklist thing, I should be having an engagement party, rehearsal dinner, and post-wedding brunch, not that I am. Granted it's an American based website, but doesn't this seem totally excessive considering weddings are expensive as it is? Must admit the checklist is…

Getting married on a Monday
We have spoken to our first choice venue today. They won't do a weekend as it's first and foremost a gastropub and they would lose too much business closing the whole place for a wedding. They can do a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm not sure about this. It's over the Easter Holidays next year, but we did want the Friday…
