Friday 13th
Hi everyone, my OH asked me to marry him a few weeks ago while we on holiday (picked the ring himself and everything!). Now, I apologize to the superstitious amongst the forum users in advance, but... We were originally thinking of a wedding date of 16/05/2016 - 2 years to the date that we got engaged, however my OH thinks…

My wedding is in 5 weeks, but I have nothing to wear!
Hi everyone, a groom in need here! I hope I can get your advise on something. My wedding is coming up in 5 weeks but I don't have anything to wear! All I know is that I hate suits and so will not be wearing one, and my wife has banned me from wearing a wedding dress (apparently it's her day, not mine!) So I'm left with a…

Band or dj?
Hi there, I've been thinking about evening entertainment and what your all doing? I have got a price for a dj (£300) but I remember my cousins weddings having a empty dance floor with a dj and I don't want the same. I wasn't sure if to go with a band or dj?

Photo Booth Recommendations?
Hello MSE, I am getting married in August 2014 and would like to hire a photo booth but they all seem so extortionate, or maybe it's just me... The cheapest one I managed to find was £395. Given that we are trying to do our wedding on a budget of £6,500, that seems quite substantial to me. Does anyone have any…

Are packages cheaper than DIY?
So blokie and me decided on getting married next year. Will be a very tight budget and having a browse around online. Is it just me or does it work out cheaper to just go for a hotel wedding package than try to piece it all together yourself? Even looking at basic local hall hire, then you've got to buy drinks as there's…

Men's Double Breasted Grey Suit
Hello, I've been searching the internet for ages for a double breasted light grey suit which my partner would like to wear for our wedding next year - they seem to be very elusive! I have tried the usual high street shops which would be preferable to buying online as he could go and try it on. However I've also been…

Wedding Cake on a budget
We're getting married in less than 4 weeks - a cake was not really on our list of priorities but we're now thinking of getting a reasonably priced one. I've been looking at the M&S cakes - we would only need one layer, suitable for about 35 guests. But the M&S cake looks tiny! I've read the reviews and most agree that it…

My OH and I have a song we love but the lyrics are the opposite of what you would expect at a wedding!! But we really love the song. Theres a few others with appropriate lyrics but it just isnt as special to us as this song.…

Buying a morning suit on the cheap
Hello, I am soon to be going to a wedding for which the dress code is morning dress. There seem to be a lot of threads on here about hiring morning dress, but none about buying it! However it costs £92 to hire a full morning suit from Moss Bros so I thought that if I was going to wear it more than once it'd be worth buying…
