I am trying to track down suppliers for wedding supplies from centre pieces to table crystals to fake flowers and feathers. Basically me and my mother in law have decided to go into business together hiring out decorations etc for weddings and parties. Ive had a google but im struggling to find a supplier.

    Not my subject really but there is a place on an industrial estate near me with a website that might be worth looking at:

    So you want to supply something, but are struggling to find suppliers yourselves.

    I can't imagine this business is going to take off, somehow.

    Its people like u that I don't care to hear from, I asked for help not to be put down, we have certain suppliers but somethings they do not stock, we have bought a lot of stock all ready. Everyone has to start somewhere and didn't u ever learn if u have nothing nice to say then don't say anything at all!

    O and for your info we have 3 bookings for 2014 already so taking off isn't a problem!

    Do you know who the manufacturers are? Will they tell you who they supply? Or is it a case of you know the kind of thing you want, without having the thing itself?

    Yeah I know what were after, we have a supplier for chair covers, sashes, vases, mirror plates, and so on. Its more so back drops with the lights, cake stands and knifes, candleabra's and a few other bits that were struggling to find at a good price
