Groupon...Has anyone used one of their packages AND pls post current Groupon packages here :)

silver_butterfly, 21 January, 2013 at 18:11 Posted on Planning 0 6

Hello everyone,

this is my first post so I'll introduce myself briefly: I got engaged at New Year and my fiance and I are thinking a Sep/Oct 2014 wedding, though absolutely nothing is planned yet. I am a mature student so on a relative budget, but I want to make it a really wonderful day.

I have been looking at wedding packages on Groupon and they look really good - I must ask has anyone actually used one of these and how was it?

Also, the packages mean you have to wade through all the different areas (I really wish they would put it all in one section!) - would people mind adding links to current packages here if they ever do see one - if I do a Google search it comes up with already expired offers which is pointless!

Would be interested to hear other's views on this Smiley smile

Thanks all!

R

    Firstly, congratulations! ?

    I agree, Groupon isn't really user friendly! I will keep an eye out as they seem to email me several times a day!

    Hiya,

    thanks for your reply Smiley smile

    Not really set on a location, was thinking I would just see what Groupon has to offer. The west side of England would be ideal, as high up as Lancashire right down to Hampshire, just wanna see what's out there.

    Thanks a lot!

    There was something on there under Birmingham the other day I'm sure. I'll have a look now x

    Edited to add that is wedding for wedding video. They do come up quite regularly so I'll keep an eye out.

    Hiya,

    yeah I think it was in Coventry and that was the one that got me wondering, it has expired now unfortunately, but it looked good! I wanted to see if anyone else had ever used a Groupon before. I believe there was also another in Gloucester Smiley smile

    PS

    Typically there don't seem to be any up right now!!

    Wedding packages are one thing, be careful with individual suppliers though. Groupon take such a huge cut as to remove any profit from the deal for the supplier.

    Lots of horror stories, please be careful and have adequate insurance.

    I'll second this. Seen lots of horror stories about groupon, morso with indivdual suppliers - particularly I've seen a few photographers who have taken on too much work through groupon without the profit margin to sustain themselves.

    Not heard of any problems with venue packages though. Woodbrorough Hall in Notts have done quite a few Groupon promotions - just a metter of keeping your eyes peeled!
