    Well if you're getting chocolate in... might aswell share it around all of us :P

    Have told OH of my chocolate needs... he said I can have that or ben and jerry's but not both... I called him a meanie... have heard nothing back... lol. I hate weight watchers!

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

  • Ok as long as you share the Ben & Jerry's ......fav at moment is the one with the polar bears in.

    Hooray ...just ordered my favours...company called Goodness Direct don't charge delivery if over £35 so ended up ordering 2 boxes not very moneysaving but everyone will get 5 chocs each........hmmm or they could have 1 each and I could have 400!! :T

  • Hmmm,

    Maybe if I got boxes for them it could double up as a place card?? I suppose boxes might be more money??

    Not had that one, we always end up with phish food or cherry garcia... guess which one's my fave lol.

    You could always give people 3 each and leave the others in bowls as a help yourself... or eat them...

    I would of ordered extra to avoid paying postage too... It's a weakness of mine... I would rather spend an extra £15 and have £15 worth of stuff than pay a fiver to have something delivered!

  • Hi,

    That sounds a little more expensive oh no another decision!! Hope this one doesn't take so long.

    Maybe I could get the kids at school to make a couple of boxes each!! LOL could be interesting.

  • Another decision,

    Lady from the church just phoned me about flowers,

    they can do,

    2 pedestals
    posy for the table where you sign the register
    maybe something 4 the vestibule- (what's a vestibule?)

    for £75 does that sound ok?
    Am going to a florist on Saturday but think they will be much more expensive.
    (I know nothing about flowers)

    I made my boxes - not sure how much they cost as I bought loads of card all at the same time to do everything.

    You could still use them as place cards without making boxes.

    Maybe attach them to a normal placecard as a kind of decoration, wrap paper around them with the name written on or attach a tag shaped bit of card with a tag of ribbon through the hole with a sticky pad. If you need me to explain what I mean give me a shout and I'll stick an example together and post a pic of it.
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    That sounds a decent quote, we're not having flowers in the church but I went for a nosey at bouquet prices yesterday and they start from £50...

    The last ebayer does a free gift if you spend over a certain amount. Also check if the ebayer combines postage! One of the above did and i didnt realise but they refunded me straight away which was nice and honist! lol :D

    PS All the above come in different colours to match whatever theme you have :)
    I'm getting married in August 2015
