  • never been there did live across the road from them for a while and it always looked pretty lol

    i wandered into work to :) we have got loads of fabricy bits in and glitter balls and stuff so might be worth a bit of a look, its a charity so it is all very cheap (and i generally work fridays if you fancy popping in and saying hello)

    we also got in lots of bits for card making so maybe some invitations could be done cheap from there

    of course you are welcome to join!

    any piccies of the ring? (we like piccies lol)

    first thing is to sort out the budget and rough guest numbers then find a venue

    are you looking to get married in dunstable or somewhere else?

    In all the cluster and excitement I didn't take a pic. Have already been told off by all my friends last night hehe. It's being resized and I'm picking it up sat so will post pics then. Yay v excited it's so sparkly :) budget wise we do want to do it pretty cheap, bit at the same time I still want a nice venue. I do want to do it locally but doesn't have to be in Dunstable (not much choice!). I so quite like puttering bury just outside Luton. I've also seen the barns hotel in Bedford and it looks lovely. But have only seen it online so far so will have to go and investigate. What about you? When/where etc?? Eek I'm likely to become a pain asking lots of stupid questions as most of my friends aren't married and I've only been to one wedding before lol x

    Putteridge bury even Argh!!
  • HAHAHAHAHA love autocorrect!!!!

    do you have any idea of how cheap?

    im 20th october at bletchley park mansion house

    if you are willing to go to bedford have you looked at any in MK there are loads of lovely ones around here

    any idea of the style of the venue that you would like? and any date or ideas of when you would like it as that will make a big difference to the cost

    come and chat on here loads - this is my only weddingy chat place as well as none of my friends are 'in that place' yet lol

    and i like stupid questions they usually make me think about something i've forgotten!!!!!!!

    Ooh that sounds nice. I'd like mk I think but just wasn't sure of where there was. I really need to get to some local wedding faures I think. Do you have any recommendations? Ideally i don't really want to spend over £7k. Preferably less! I've also been eyeing up a beautiful dress for a while. I took a pic of it sat but need to try it on. I saw it a while ago and just adore it. How do you post pics here?? I'm thinking a nice manor house/hotel/barn. I'm torn between summer or winter lol!! I've never been one of these girls dreaming about their wedding since they were small so I'm really not sure. I like the idea of summer for pics outside but I also love the idea of a cost reception, cracking fire, lots of candles etc. Hmm!! My fianc! isn't too fussed he said he just wants us to be married and so he doesn't have a strong opinion of what he wants.
  • Hiya,

    Putteridge Bury was my uni! LOL! Its a nice house, beaiutiful but a lot of the inside has been changed into meeting rooms and plasterboard etc. Not usre on all of the building tho so I would go see it.

    Been to wedding at barns. lovely venue, I was bridesmaid there. There were a few minor mess ups by the staff tho.

    DP was best man at Bletchly, it was lovely!

    Ours is hopefully going to come in at under 1500! eek x
