My beloved in-laws are racing towards their golden wedding anniversary & (after a family meal out at a pub for the 45th) are quietly very clear they do not want to leave their home to celebrate.

Party food website?
Hi I am organising a 40th wedding anniversary party. Most of the people coming will be happy to make food towards the buffet (this is quite common with our large group of friends, we nearly always help each other). I am looking for an easier way for people to select from a list what they would like to bring. Does anyone…

What to do with my wedding dress?
So I have my wedding dress which cost me £1200, and my swarovski veil and bouquet which cost me £600. Im getting divorced after my ex cheated many times. So I clearly don't want to keep them. I never had my dress cleaned. Is it worth me selling it or just giving it to the charity shop. Do you have any other ideas for what…

Hen do?
Hi all :) Initially OH and I both decided as we aren't the going out type we wouldn't have hen/stag do's, and I was happy with this as I only have a couple of friends. Last night OH said his cousin has asked when his stag do is, and as OH loves going to watch rugby he'd like to go watch the match in Manchester with his…

Wedding Fairs- are they worth it?
My OH proposed last week and we are right at the beginning of the planning stage, looking at a July 2015 date. My OH has seen a banner advertising a wedding fair this weekend at a local venue. It's not a venue we would normally consider but thought it might be an idea to go and use it to gauge an idea of prices in our…

Worried Venue Will Stick to Guns
I am a bit worried the reception venue will stick to their guns and not deviate from the package we're looking at. We want to trade one item with the package above (the price difference is negligible) and trade another item from the package below if we can (so it would be beneficial for the venue). Do you think they would?…

Venues that allow self/outside catering

We both are in love with the idea of a late-ish (around 4-5pm) outside ceremony and then a marquee or barn reception straight afterwards. We have come across some absolutely stunning…

Alternatives to Champagne
I was wondering if anyone had ideas for alternatives to champagne for a toast - The Boss has insisted we have a toast drink for our guests, but I really REALLY don't like champagne, I think it's disgusting - frankly, I think all sparkling wines are pretty nasty... And whilst TB has suggested that everyone else has…

Petticoats
Seem to be a bit of a worry so here are my tips. If you have a nice full skirted cream puff type of gown (ok, your traditional meringue) what you should be looking for is a petticoat which will support the fullness of the skirt. There is really not much point in buying this type of gown if you don't want to show off the…

Help with my spreadsheet
I downloaded the wedding ideas magazine spreadsheet, but it didn't really do what I wanted it to do. So I've embarked on making my own, where I can tinker with the costs once I know that numbers are confirmed, etc. Here's the list of everything at all that I can think of - there's some extras in there like a coke station,…
