Hi Everyone
I am working my way through what appears to be an never ending list of things to do and was wondering if any of you may have some guidance:
1. Rings
I have an appointment with Simply Jewellers to try on some rings with them and was wondering if anyone had any experience of them. Good or Bad? Also I have seen a ring I like from Seventy Seven Diamonds which is about £150 cheaper and very similar to what I like at Simply. Any experience of them?
The reason I am asking is that my OH's Dad has just been made redundant and we had been told they would give us £2,000 towards the wedding. Now feeling incredibly guilty about this given their situation so I am trying to pince pennies everywhere so that we don't use, even though they have still said they want to give it to us.
2. Flowers
Can you guys tell me what your cost has been for this. I have absolutely no idea what should be normal to pay.
I only want something very simply including white gerberas. I don't need much in the way of centrepieces as our venue comes with the use of candleabra's, mirror plates and tea lights for all the tables. So basically need my bouquet, 4 smaller BM bouquets, 6 Buttonholes and a toptable decoration.
3. Make-up and Hair
This seems like the most expensive and unnecessary thing at the moment.
Although I would absolutely love to have it done on the day I cannot justify spending £180 on me for the day when we are looking at hiring a suit for my OH rather than buying him one.
Any tips of DIY for this.
Sorry for the long message.
