It could have been do-able!
The band might have already been booked to play at the pub, so it wouldn't have cost them anything. (band could be a regular act there)
Chair covers and sashes could have been made for them by someone, again, wouldn't have cost anything.
A meal in a pub....less than £10 a head so it could well have been done for £580.
That ginger whinger needed a good kick up the hoop ~ god she was soooo b!tchy and nasty, i didn't think much of her wedding at all!
Cinderella my eye, more like one of the ugly sisters!! ( she was ugly on the inside before anyone starts on me lol)Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty...0 -

Yes, cost you, she's not you so you don't know that they cost her anything!
could have been a gift from someone, or could have bougt a shedload of material for £50 and someone made them for nothing.
We don't know but it is possible for her to have done it for the price she said.Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty...0 -
I'm just watching it after Sky +ing it last night. Just onto the gay wedding. That woman no way did that wedding for £580.
Looking forward to the fairytale wedding though for £5k. lol.
Date: May 2009
Budget: £580
Location: Bromley, Kent
Wedding Theme: Lowest budget of the series!
Nightmare wedding: Anything big budget, OTT, princessy or girly
Bride’s Personality: Straight talking Natalie knows what she likes and what she doesn’t, she is keeping her budget as low as possible and can’t understand how anyone can waste thousands of pounds on one day!
Their wedding: Budgeting was the key to Natalie’s wedding plans, she didn’t want to waste thousands of pounds they don’t have on one day.
They had their ceremony at Bromley registry office, then travelled over to their reception venue, which was a back room in their local pub on the street they live. Natalie knew straight away she wanted the reception there and Debbie, the landlord and her friend helped sort it all out, keeping the costs down so Natalie’s budget was kept as low as possible. They all ate a dinner of roast beef and all the trimmings and then once all the food had been eaten, they opened the doors so the guests could go through into the main pub and enjoy the live band booked by Debbie.
The Dress: Natalie bought her dress over the internet and including dry cleaning it only cost £80!What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine..0 -

i think the point the other person is trying to make is that, that wedding cant of cost £580 for all those things
yes im sure that might be all she spent, but I doubt it covered the cost of everything if you see what I mean
Married on 5th March 2010still lurking on the wedding board tho :rotfl:0 -

ah i see, so landlord is a friend, so probably did food cheap and got the decorations and stuff for her on the cheap too

Anyway, last night this lady claimed to have spent £2,000 on her wedding for 300 people, including hot food and entertainment. I couldn't believe it! I am looking to spend £3,000ish on my wedding but that is for 100 people and a cold buffet. What did everyone think of her MSE day?
She came last in the votes lol but then again she was up against a fairy themed wedding, a £35,000 gay civil ceremony in a gorge venue, and a over the top pink fun packed wedding.
Very exciting story! I will watch it without fail:DLIFE IS COOL!:j0 -
I'm glad the one who won it on Monday won it. She was the only wedding that deserved to win in my opinion! The one who had her wedding for £580 was a complete COW!!! Moaning about each and every wedding just because they decided they wanted to spend more than her.What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine..0
