Ideas for table flowers, gifts, table settings

i personally wouldnt go down the balloons route,bit tacky and not quite the effect you are after i dont imagine ?

sorry to offend i just think you can be far more creative / imaginative without using balloons and have a far nicer end look

you should be able to get lovespoons for your £2 each ,my sister had them as wedding favours in 2002 , £1 each and then made her own little tags and put very thin ribbon on in their colour scheme

ps what venue in cardiff <nosey icon>

AB, the what everything store on the hayes are having a closing down sale - you may want to have a nosey in there to see if there is anything going cheap you can use :beer:

is there any theme for the function that you could work into your decorations somehow?

i'm a laydeeee, dont you know

just a word of warning though - watch their prices on the non-discounted lines. ive noticed that some of there stuff is up to a third more expensive than the newport road branch. dont know whether this is because of higher rent in the city centre? sale stuff *is* cheap, but watch you dont get stung on non discounted stock.
