CAKE!!!!!

Sarah-Em, 25 October, 2010 at 17:27 Posted on Planning 0 3

By the skin of our teeth we have managed to get our wedding cake booked today! I saw my perfect cake a few weeks ago at a wedding fayre and new for sure I wanted the lady who'd made it to make my cake. I didn't realise how booked up cake makers got though as I contacted her late yesterday and had a reply today to say our wedding day is the only date in September that she isn't booked up . . . I can't believe how lucky we got and how close we came to almost missing out.

I am heaving a HUGE sigh of relief as I've now booked her and had my confirmation email to say I can relax now she's got us in her diary - PHEWWWWWWWWWEY!

Next task = TOG! Please be available ?

    Ah that's a relief. Glad you got it booked. If you need any recs for make up, florist etc (shame you don't need cake!) let me know as, as you know, I'm just down the road from you and have a few friends who are in the wedding industry too.

    PS: which TOG are you after?

    The problem being that our wedding's going to be on the Isle of Wight and I'm hoping to be over there a good few days at least beforehand, so we're having to search for nearly everything Island based which does limit us slightly . . . unless you know any contacts over there or who include the Island as part of their area!?

    We're hoping to be able to book a guy called Brian Bradbury for our TOG, he's pretty pricey, but I loved him when I saw him at a wedding fayre a few weeks ago, he's everything I imagine the perfect photographer should be and I can imagine him getting good photos from us, he came across as kinda bossy, so we'll do what we're told and smile at all the right times, etc. I also preferred his album to all the others we'd seen, the only thing he didn't seem to offer was miniture albums which I really like the idea of being able to give to both sets of parents, another guy we saw offered these as part of the package but his album and manner didn't take me like the first TOG. I'm just hoping he's available when we need him, that's our job for tomorrow - fingers crossed!

    Sorry to crash, but just wanted to add that a lot of Hampshire suppliers I work with would happily include the island as part of their area, especially if all the pre/post wedding bits can be arranged on the mainland; you can but ask!

    Good luck tomorrow! I think you are right to go with your gut feeling.

    Sorry no, I don't think they'd be able to cover Isle of Wight.
