I was going to get them and put sweets in them for the kids but I think I like the flower thing more

I'm sure you could find a similar style side tiara/comb to the Jenny Packham but cheaper, but I think it'd still have crystals of some sort in them. Also you can different dullness/sparkliness of crystals. Not sure but have you thought about the duller ones?
I think if you're wearing pearl earrings, and bracelet then you may not want too much going on in your hair. So little pearl clips/pins might be nicer - and you could position them in a cluster to the side or on the top, or have them spread out over your head like I'll be having (going to have a play with my hair and make up again on Saturday before I go to see my dress - so will get photos again to show you all).

Good advice, thanks :A

Can't WAIT to see your dress photos!!!!!! :T

There's only about £10 difference between them I was just thinking the youngs ones will be better with the wrist corsages so that they don't have to hold a bouquet all day. I think I might just do ip dip do, at solved all my problems when I was little :j

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rotfl:

You could dot some small tea lights around the outside of them to help 'widen' them a bit if you were worried about them being lost on a big table. Something like this:

Or if you're putting flowers inside you could enlarge it by having the same flowers in smaller pots like this:

(Sorry for the big photo!)

OMG, love these pics! Not so keen on the wreath but these are so pretty...

One hour till I meet the florist and bombard him with my Pinterest boards ha ha ha!!!! Poor thing!

Well youve been mega chatty today!! (you can tell its half term NAtalie!!! )

Good luck with the florist Wanchai- I bet he actually likes the fact you have so many ideas- its probably easier to rein in on loads of ideas than have no ideas at all.

I really like the birdcages- I think they look fab, I do like fishbowls aswell though so I guess it depends what kind of look/ theme you are going for.

How old the ones your thinking off getting a wrist corsage for?

I don't know what you mean!!

Ha ha ha, I love it when Natalie's off, she'll chat away for England! Sorry to everyone else who has to wade through pages of waffle from us two xx

Emma - thanks pet, I do hope he likes me having lots of ideas, he's really into my 'theme' (such as it is) and loves all the quirky stuff that I do! I'm off in a minute, chat later xx

wanchai_2

p.s. it's VTM who's having the corsage/birdcage/fishbowl dilemmas, not me! xxx

MrsDrink

Ha you just wait till I have a day when I'm actually doing stuff... then this place will be quiet

They are 10 and 11 so not little, little ones my 1 year old is going to just have an alice band as there is no chance of her holding anything actually there is little chance of her wearing a alice band I've been putting one on her daily the longest she's worn it was about 10 minutes!

I'm going to run the bird cages past my oh when he's home from work fingers crossed he likes them. Our venue is a marque with round tables white table cloth, white chair covers with baby blue shash so I think either will go but I'm picturing the bird cages and loving the idea now thanks to all again I'm one happy b2b :beer:

Oh bless your littleun Sharon! I don't know what your alice bands are like but my memory of them as a child was always ones that were too tight around my ears and giving me a horrid headache!

*drums her fingers* Where is MrD, tea is ready and I'm bloody starving (well a little bit of an exaggeration but it smells soooo good!!) - okay it's my own fault for being a good 'wifey' and guessing what time he'll be home (he's out tonight).... but still lol I'm hungry!!
