If you've got a local beauty college near by they'll do it (and practise runs) for a lot less than £340. You'll be surprised especially as its your wedding day they'll be too scared to get it wrong and be really really careful.

is there anyway that you can serve hot canap!s while people wait for you to have photographs and do the speeches and all of that before feeding? Or have a buffet style main meal instead and serve bacon rolls and chips at a later time?

Try spending some Saturday nights going to various places to hear different artists/bands - you'll be surprised how many people will do a wedding for less that £500. My wedding singer was £250 but she did 3 x45minute sets and the sound for the speeches and a karaoke/request style disco

Hi,

Hair and makeup is very over-priced! Firstly, very generous of you to pay for the Mother-In-Law's makeups.

Most makeup counters allow you to book a makeover free of charge - have you thought about this? Yes, annoying to have to go out on your wedding day, but you could get professional makeup free of charge!

Buffet: Just do 30, people eat more and some people eat less, and not everyone likes everything! There will 100% be food left over!

Congratulations! Hope you have a great day!

Georgina
