Champagne and chocolate sounds fabulous Lexxi
dont know if you have chosen a cake yet but M&S do a great looking 3 tier chocolate cake covered with chocolate roses.They have it in chocolate colour or theres a white chocolate covered option if you want a more traditional looking cake but with the scrummy chocolate cake inside.
If my MIL hadnt made my wedding cake this was one of my favourites to buy.

Well we're still planning so its not 100% confirmed yet, but we've decided to go with a deep red/burgendy colour. We initially picked the colour because my H2B spotted a gorgeous cravat in that colour when at a wedding fayre and fell in love with it. And when I checked with my bridesmaid she was happy with the colour saying red really suits her :-)

H2B and i didnt even need to think about it we just knew we wanted black and white.

Good choice Lexxi - my sister had cream, chocolate brown and gold as her colours when she got married in early December, as she wanted warm colours but nothing too Christmassy. If you want to do your own invites my mum got all her ribbons and card from Hobbycraft when she made my sister's wedding invites.

Effing men I bloody hate them sometimes! He doesn't like the pink grrrr got to think of another colour now

Effing men wouldn't notice, call it dusky or pastel

Minerva, thanks for the tip on hobby craft, I picked up the cards and enveloped for £24 today and worked out the ribbon would cost £11 for all the cards so I'm going to shop around a little

That cake does look lovely, I'm not allowed an all chocolate one cos he thinks I'll eat it all lol. I think I'm going with cakes unlimited as they have a bargain range and will do different flavours for the tiers

There are some reallly nice dresses on ebay kildare, one of the first I looked at had lovely burgandy detailing to the train

Would you belive it is cheaper than the M&S cake, but only serves 90, not bad for £110 though!
