FLIP FLOPS

mam of the bride, 18 August, 2012 at 21:09 Posted on Planning 0 9

Just wanted to ask everyone what they think of "flip flops in a basket". I seen the idea on here and just wondered if any one had them, or is it a waste of time? Look forward to your replies. Thanks xx

    Hello

    Ive done it. I got my flip flops from Primark £1-£1.50 each, but I also spotted them afterwards at 99p in Home Bargains. Some people might not use it them but it is a nice thought. The last wedding I went to my feet were killing me before the ceremony even finished, so I would have been grateful for a comfy pair of shoes.

    I just need to get a basket, sme size tabs and make up a little sign for them.

    Thanks

    Debbie

    In our experience they're always really popular. At yesterdays wedding, most of the ladies were in flip flops by 10pm when we left- the bride included.

    Once the dancing starts, the basket usually gets raided!

    I went to a wedding last year where they did this and as a guest, I found it to be an absolute god send as my feet were killing me!

    Good shout. You've got me thinking now - I might do this at my wedding!

    I think it sounds a great idea too. Has anyone got a picture of a flip flop basket they have made that they can flash?

    I am doing flip flops and slippers as its October Smiley smile The few people I have told have been mixed reactions, but I am sure on the day people will love it!

    I am probably going to have a extended table to have the card box, guest book, these and my pashmina basket all in one place.

    We did a flip flop basket and it went down extremely well. I was only left with 2 pairs out of about 30 in the end! I bought them from Primark this time last year.
