Thank you so much everyone. I am so pleased it comes across as a very informal wedding, as that's just how we wanted it to be.

I forgot to say that all the DIY went down a storm with guests, I wish I had taken more cards for the top tip tree, as guests were writing more than one tip each - plus I had 250 free from vistaprint so had plenty :rotfl: I am pleased we just left it as a branch, and didn't spray white/silver, it fitted in really well.

My flowers lasted too, I wasn't sure how they would hold up with being passed around and put down/picked up etc but they held out well.


Our signing frame is now up on the wall, waiting for us to decide on what photo to put in it.

Goodybags too were fab and everyone seemed to like them.

The homemade photobooth got used by just about everyone, and by using a webcam, it meant people could leave video messages too.

Jax, are your flowers real or are they those foam ones? A florist is making me up a bouquet something similar to yours in the foam flowers to see if I like it.

This is a link to 'My 3k Wedding Thread' where I show how I made them.

I can't remember total cost but the small foam roses were around 99p for 2 bunches of 6, and the larger cream foam roses were around £10 for 24.

I didn't initially want flowers, but my MOH and BM said they would feel funny walking down the aisle with nothing in their hands so I made these, they took about 5mins each to put together, I was going to wrap the stems in a green florist tape, but in the end didn't bother.

I will update the final figure on my 3k wedding thread sometime in the next week or two, so you can see how I fared (or failed :rotfl:).
