    Oh totally forgot to mention :-) My friend studies fashion design in London and is making my dress and oh's suit... They both look amazing and kind of match too :j We only have to pay for fabrics, but I will pay her for her work anyway because she is doing such a fantastic job...

    She found an old vintage dress and is basically working on it, adding lots of things and fitting it to my size. Looks so great...

    Is there such a thing as a website for keeping track of your wedding plans? i.e. when to book the venue, when to send out invites etc etc?

    Good question - has anybody replied? If so, how do I find the answers?

    Thanks

    Go to Home Bargains for favours. I managed to get fizzy bath bombs - 29p each. Mini Boxes of minature heroes - 29p each. Mini Gumball machines 59p each. Kids variety tubes which contain jelly babies, chocolate buttons, crayola crayons and colouring in sheets - 39p each
    This sounds like a fantastic idea - I was going to post a question to ask about cheap ideas for favours!
    What or where is Home Bargains? Is it s shop or a website? I live in North Yorkshire.
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi everyone

    Ive just read all 57 pages of this thread and have found many great ideas so thanks!
    Ive been engaged now for about 3 weeks. OH proposed whilst we were on holiday in the carribean watching a stunning sunset.Very romantic.

    Anyway been quick of the mark and have set a date 16th June 2007 We have also booked a local castle for our ceremony. Ive always wanted a castle!
    Just visiting venues now for our reception- Sit down meal for approx 50/60 people. Things are looking expensive so im sure ill become a regular on this thread during the next year!

  • kyle thanks a million our day in gretna is only 4 weeks away now its nice to know it will all be ok at smiths hotel, cheers and congrats to you x
  • What is everyone's 'honest' opinion on Gretna Green. I am looking at a package that includes EVERYTHING. Basically all we need to do is turn up in our outfits with the rings. This is costing £2800. We're planning on imediate family only. Then having a big party/reception a few days later.

    But i don't know if Gretna is a little 'tacky'???

    i know what you mean, but its lovely best advice is to visit, i felt the world famous blacksmiths was too public and tourist attraction even on a quiet day so we opted for gretna hall blacksmiths shop it is a bit more private and set in hotel grounds
