Hey guys (My 1st post)

Spent hours reading all the tips and found many useful just wondered if anyone had anymore they can share with me.

Im getting married in Ibiza in July next year always had my heart set on that place, but you can only have a blessing there because of the country being catholic. So have to legally get married in this country 1st! So have chosen a local registry office in sunny Bristol to do this. I don't want to spend to much on the Bristol thing as the Ibiza thing is costing already any tips on having a realy good day but cheap as possible. Don't want it to be disapointing for close realitives that can't make Ibiza .

Wanted to spend 2 nights in a Hotel around Bistol city centre so didn't have to far to travel but this seemed quite expensive as well and coudn't even find a five star hotel.

Any tips on Villa's in Ibiza and nice hotels would be gratefully appreciated as well

Thanks in advance....

Don't know if you're looking for somewhere for you or your family to stay, but as an alternative to a hotel, these apartments are great. We stayed there when we were in bristol for my hen do, and they were spotless and quite luxurious. We had 2 double bedrooms to an apartment (each with a licing room, bathroom and kitchen) and they worked out the same price as 2 people in a hotel room. Worth checking out...

Sorry Bekah, I'm rubbish - didn't realiseI hadn't put the link in. Here it is:

We found this place much nicer than a hotel, as it was much more sociable for anyone who stays in more than a pair. Bathrooms were huge, living room was comfortable, kitchen was fully equipped and bedrooms were lovely. They have their own parking and was 10 or 15 minutes walk from the city centre.

Hello All
I'm getting married on Oct 20th this year. Everything is going great. Lovely church and then a big party. Found loads of bargains everywhere, including a fantastic italian designer dress for £40 on good old Ebay.
I'm making bath bombs at the mo for favours. (I'm not totally sure on the quantities of food colouring to use - so my guests and their baths could be dyed a bit pink for a while!)
I was just wondering if anyone knows where we could buy some cheap bubbly?
Big thanks to any help!

Just a thought - if I use brown food colouring, could I say it was fake tan?

I've cheked out the virgin brides website & it seems like they've close their London shop, the only one is in Manchester..... If anyone knows any different could you let me know.
Both Tesco & Sainsbury's do iced fruit cake in 3 sizes, some sainsbury's stores even do pillars to separt the tiers

If you're buying cakes from a store, I've seen lots of different styles of cake stands / tiers on ebay...

Hi mumofthree,

I would love to make bath bombs for my guests but I am having a problem sourcing the citric acid. Just wondering where you got yours from and how much? If you don't mind me asking!! Also what are you using as a mold?

All this wedding chat is very exciting!!

Thanks
