    Well ....

    I have decided to make my own ruched tie's for the men! I can hire them in fuschia along with the kilts but they might not be the same shade as the bridesmaids so I am going to ask Milly to supply an extra couple of metres of bridesmaids dress fabric.

    I've bought a pattern off E-Bay for £9 which includes an adult pattern and a baby pattern and postage.

    They will be wearing Black Spirit Tartan like this one but with the fuscia ruched tie like this.

    All this money saving is making me brave!!!

    Our colour scheme is fuschia and black.

    Can you tell me where you're getting your guestbook templates from - also, what kind of materials are you using?

    I'm looking at doing something a bit like this on each table, but instead of leaving it blank for guests to write stuff, we're writing a little anecdote about all our guests!

    Thank you,
    Helen
