What to do for gift as a 'plus one'
Hi! I shall be attending a wedding soon, but I know neither the bride or groom, or any other guest really! My friend is a friend of the bride, they met at uni so I've never met. But my friend asked me to go with her as her plus one. Should I take a present, or pop money in a card? I'm not too sure what to do. If I were…

Wedding Ring Engraving - After the day?
Just wondered if anyone else has had their wedding ring engraved after the event? I was never really bothered about having it done at the time, but I've been thinking about it a little more recently...I tend to take my ring off quite often, as I do a fair bit of exercise...and I just keep thinking "if I lost it, how would…

I've found a reception venue 25 mins drive from the church, do you think this is too much? I've treid to work out who would drive and who would get a taxi etc and we could afford to put on a…

Field hire for wedding East Midlands/East Anglia
Hello, I am looking for advice about a venue for our wedding (non-traditional, we just need a field as a blank canvas and then bring in our own food+booze, have a bonfire, have friends camp in tents, etc.) Lots of people on other threads have said "just rent a field for £500" - easier said than done! Anyone know where I…

Wedding Dilema - do I tell the bride?
This is not my normal username: I have been told something that I wish I hadn't and I'm not sure what to do about it. I have found this forum very useful in the past, however I know the people in question are members of this forum too which is why I am using this AE. There is a traditional around my way, involving the…

What's your ideal honeymoon destination
Not necessarily where you went (if married) or are going (if planning) but if money were no object and you could do what you liked, what would you do/where would you go? I like the idea of having an island to ourselves. White sand and one of those wooden bungalow 'things' above the sea (although I think the sound of the…

Summer 2014
OH and I have been trying to get married for nearly three years. Sadly, due to finances we have not been able to do it. After a long chat, we are going to go all out to finally tie the knot in 2014 :beer::j:j Our budget is £1800.00. So not a lot at all, but I have a whole box (literally a big plastic box) full of ideas. So…

Wedding budgeting and help on basics
Me and OH want to get married a.s.a.p, but whereas he is willing to just have the real basic 'Gretna Green' type service where you turn up, say your vows, then go away, I'd rather wait a little longer for something a bit more special. What are the basic, basic costs? I.e. registry etc? We don't want to get married in a…

Groom / Best Man suits
Hi, I've seen various guides for brides to get discount wedding dresses, but I've not seen a similar guide for Groom and Best Man outfits. Is it ever cheaper to buy a Groom outfit (say from a Chinese company) than to hire for the day? I'm talking about a traditional outfit (waistcoat, tails, etc.) rather than the option of…
