Making own wedding stationary - where to buy card/paper
I'm planning on crafting my own wedding stationary and would appreciate any advice on the best place to find value for money cards/papers. I'm not looking for anything fancy in particular, just plain and matt cards and papers. I ask because I used to buy this sort of thing from the highstreet, from Paper Mill actually, but…

Sweet Christmassy story to share!
A girl I've know for a few years got engaged yesterday :) Her OH had carefully removed the chocolate from her advent calendar for the day, and wrapped the ring up in the foil...she wondered why he was so insistent she open her calendar! :rotfl: She said yes and then demanded the chocolate back ;) Merry Christmas everyone!…

Venue Communication Issue
Hi all We booked our wedding (whole thing from service, to wedding breakfast, to reception) in August to have it all at the same place - a hotel which is part of a small chain up North. I'm getting really stressed out with the lack of contact from the Hotel, since we signed a contract and put down the first sum of money,…

Tackling the issue of money
My partner and I got engaged a couple of weeks ago so are just starting to think about planning the wedding, mostly about how to pay for it! We're not thinking of going overboard but have worked out even if we cut costs where we can we'll still need about £4k. First off, we're not expecting anyone else to pay our way,…

Not having an engagement ring
Not sure why I'm writing this really- probably more to have a rant than anything else. I didn't have a traditional proposal. It was more a mutual agreement. We were both fine with that- it seemed a far more natural way of going about it. Obviously there wasn't a ring involved. My partner said he'd get me one afterwards. I…

Seating everyone!!
Sorry but this might be a long post...... We decided straight away when planning our wedding that we didn't want day/evening guests, we wanted everyone to be there for the whole wedding. OH's family is huge (80) & they are all close & see each other regularly for parties etc, adding my family plus us brings our numbers up…

Trying to find transport that fits our theme
We're getting married next August and the day is going to be very relaxed, a bit of a hippy/festival vibe with live music and a hog roast, not really a wedding at all! I'm staying at my parents' house the night before with my three bridesmaids and need some way to get everyone to the venue which is about an hour away.…

Civil Ceremony only on a sunday? help!
I have my heart set on getting married on the 21/12/14 which is a Sunday. Myself and my partner live in Gloucestershire and want to just get married with a couple of people present then go straight on honeymoon! But this is proving difficult!

Table Decoration Help!
Wondering if anyone can help me with table decorations for my upcoming wedding. We decided to do them ourselves and used an online company called Michael Dark to get the items we wanted. Our idea was goldfish bowls on mirrored tiles(both from the company mentioned) with some purple sand in the bottom then floating candles…

Online wedding dresses
Hi guys, Just a quick question, What are peoples views on ordering wedding dresses online? My partner has found a wedding dress in the exact style she wants. We have scoured wedding shows and shops to no avail. And the fact that the dress she has found has a £500 saving on it appeals more to her, but this deal expires at…

Do I need favours?
I am getting married in Sept 2014 and as my OH has such a large family we are trying to look for ways to save money before our budget stretches too much.. Do you think we could get away with having no favours? Thinking about the last weddings I went to they were only a few sweets (which I ate straight away) so not sure if…
