Our wedding rings....bespoke made especially for us by Gavin Mack...all for freeeee!!
Well not free, but I asked my family if anyone had any old gold and we were lucky enough to get a couple of old watch backs and some other broken bits. It was enough to make us two really good pretty heavy court shaped rings and there was enough gold leftover to pay for the labour of making the rings!! Very happy
I am super excited to have such personal rings, with little bits of my ancestors included!! Gavin did a wonderful job0 -
banburybride i love the the idea you had for your rings might look in to doing something like that thanks for good idea xxMarried the man of my dreams 27/08/20110

Got my wedding dress brand new with tags for £285 on eBay - retails for around £800 in bridal shops.
Also a brand new pair of Christian Day ivory bridal boots, should be £60, got them for £15 plus £2.50 postage on eBay.
A tiara for about £4... let's think... a Jon Richard necklace and bracelet set that matches my dress perfectly, for £2.99 plus a couple of pounds postage... the bracelet had a couple of beads missing (seller didn't mention that :P) but I only wanted the necklace anyway, and that by itself is about £20 in Debenhams.
The only problem is I'm so addicted to bargain hunting on eBay that I keep looking for dresses, shoes, tiaras etc just to see if I can do even better! Anyone else do that??0
