Children at weddings...
I know this is an age old question that there have probably been many discussions about but this is really starting to get me down. Every wedding (apart from 2) that I have been to have been adult only affairs. The first one I went to was when I was 3 and a neice of the groom and so was a flower girl. The other wedding was…

Can you negotiate with a church?
I know this is a terrible question to ask but from asking around church services seem to cost between £500-800 with approx. £100 extra for both bells and a choir so imagine my shock when the church I was about to book quoted over £1000 just for the ceremony with extras costing over £300 each! There is also an extra £250…

None of my immediate family are married and I've only been to one full wedding and two receptions in my life time. I want to…

I am allergic to sme nuts, and cannot have marzipan. Does anyone know if it's possible to have a cake with the white icing,…

Wedding dress ruined by seamstress
To cut a long story short I bought a dress two years ago from Coast and have lost weight since. I paid approximately £180 for it a real bargain and then took my dress to a seamstress to be altered after a recommendation as it needed the shoulder straps adjusting and also some length to come off the bottom. She charged me…

I don't really talk to my cousin, maybe seen him twice in 5 years - I've spoken a few times to his wife (Messaging / emails), and it appears we grate each other.... Anyway - They asked everyone for money as a present. Now, I understand that its their…
