    They are lovely Roz :D

    DDs bridesmaid dress was a bargain at £25, it was just a party dress that she found in a local shop but its the perfect colour, the perfect length (even if she grows a few inches) and it looks very demure without being puffy or tarty! :rotfl:

    Very happily married on 10th April 2013 :D

    Centrepieces - costing a total of £60 for 12 - The stems will be trimmed to size, and the bottom couple of inches will be filled with aqua beads, and then topped up with water. The vase will be on a mirror plate, with four tealights in glass votives in each corner

    I'm impressed, how have you got your mirror plates so cheap? Cheapest I've found is £6 for 4. I too am having 12 centre pieces so doing them £60 would be fab if you can point me in the right direction please. £5 a centrepiece is brill.
    Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....

    My mirror plates were Ikea £6 for 4. I managed to do it so cheaply because I got the vases for free :o but there's a shop online (Elite Florist Supplies) where they're about £5 each for 30x12cm vases.

    Flowers & aqua beads were Ebay - the latex Cala Lily stems were £1 each :)
