Plan so far.

MetalBride, 1 July, 2016 at 19:20 Posted on Planning 0 9

Here goes.

We're hiring a woodland glade which will be filled with sparkly lights and a stage on which we will ' get married ' in a hand fasting ceremony. Then the food van will dispense an as of yet unknown type of food in cardboard boxes, following this the first of five live heavy metal bands will take the stage ( I'm serious). When the bands are done the disco will open inside the marquee which will have a finger buffet in it. Hopefully decorated with guttering candles and roses (we'll see what else). Then we dance away until we are too tired and retire to the preprepared glamping area in the field next door.

Not masses of detail yet but what do you all think?

    Wow sounds really lovely. OK I'm not a heavy metal fan BUT I'm quite deaf and there is always earplugs so I could just enjoy the atmosphere! Loving the glen, the handfasting, food trucks and possibly even the glamping which I MIGHT fancy trying now my camping days are gone. Can't wait to see your pics.

    The bands are all friends bands. One is called Skyligers the lead singer belly dances during their set, they're arranging the whole line up for us.

    The metal Dj is a friend although we've asked him to sneak in some silly wedding classics so the non metal fans can have a dance too, all the guests get one song request slip with their invitation. We're dancing to 'To Bid You Farewell ' by a band called Opeth. Oh and our dog will hopefully carry the rings.

    Legal ceremony will happen at the registry office the day before, no one is really going to be invited to that (although my mum kicked off but hey she hates the whole concept currently).
