wedding dresses - there is a shop across from dan kerr which is shutting down - 75% off but i know its probably less than that now, they are desperate to get rid of everything - they wanted to shut last month but havent sold everything yet, my sister in law got her dress from there for £150. I saw one but missed out getting it for £400 (it had been £1700 at one point). Also if your having just one bridesmaid they have lovely dresses for that but unfortunatley any more than that you probbably wont get matching - i tried. Also the shop on central drive - stitch in time is a lot cheaper than dan kerr or any other bridal shops - she is a lovely lady, im getting my dress from there for £600.

also i saw a florists package in town - next to the rose and crown pub - across from bhs - they were doing a deal for £180 - bridal bouqet, 2 bridesmaids poseys, 2 corsages, and buttonholes (cant remember how many)- im not sure if this is cheap or not as i havent looked at florist prices yet. cakes - i would maybe look at getting them from m&s - they were doing a deal buy two get one free, buying a cake stand from ebay then having your florist adding flowers to the top and then put some ribbon round - that would the cheapest option i think.

centre peices and chair covers - these are not always necessary if your venue has nice chairs - unfornately ours doesnt so we need these - but there is a place again on church street other side of dan kerr but towards town a bit more - called tops and tails (i think) they do a package for £195 i think ive seen in the window. Also i know of a really good DJ - DJ Katie i think she's called - £150 and she plays adult games and also keeps the kids entertained if your having kids - another sister in law had her for her wedding (which was at the ruskin). i think she managed to do her wedding for under £3000.
