    Hi Liverbird - I am looking into hair and makeup too and am in didcot so if I find anything I will let you know. Where did you get your boudoir shots done?

    Ta, Primmer. I had my boudior shoot done by a lady in Bury, Lancashire (I have family around that area) - Nicola Grimshaw Mitchell - would thoroughly recommend her, she was fab! Not particularly MSE mind you, but definitely worth it in my opinion!

    I thought i would add in some mse suppliers i used recently.

    For pig roast we went for a party in a box
    http://www.pigroastparty.co.uk/page3.html They arrived bang on time and everyone loved the pork. We had way to much left as we over estimated.

    i can confirm pork korma is really lovely and so is bbq sauce poured over it we had it for a few days meals after :O. I think they may be negotiable with pricing but i forgot to haggle i was so excited when they called me back so quickly. Contact was very good.

    Flowers! i had a very reasonable negotiable quote from http://www.distinctivepetals.co.uk/ with 2 weeks to go apparently i was leaving it really late..... We spoke mostly by email before meeting up at my house she was lovely to deal with and has very enthusiastic knowledgeable ideals.

    For those in Didcot, I used Segais (also in Faringdon and Wantage) for my hair and make-up - they did a fabulous job and would highly recommend them, I was really pleased and everyone told me I was glowing! My hair stayed in place all day and night! Costings depend on who you have. Make up was £82 including trial and hair was £120 including two trials.
    They can come to your home if you want, but it was cheaper to go in salon - although with 4 BM's and a MoB it was quite an experience getting us all done before 11.30am!!

    Hi, can anyone recommend someone to make our wedding cake. We're going for a traditional tiered cake (we're thinking about having sponge rather than fruit).

  • Hi everyone

    I'm getting married at Caswell House near Witney on 28th July 2012. So far we've sorted out the venue, caterer and THE dress. However, I'm struggling with the rest. If anyone has any recommendations for suppliers, especially photographers, I would love to hear them!

    Thanks :)

    Hi,

    What is your budget for a photographer? I may be able to recommend ours, depending on how much you are looking to spend :)
