Most OTT wedding idea?

pandorasbox, 25 March, 2012 at 18:03 Posted on Planning 0 10

Not had one of these threads for a while and seen some bizarre stuff lately. One was that a bride and groom demand all their guests dress up for the full day (and evening) in leis and grass skirts for a Hawaii theme wedding...in the middle of Cheshire in the rain and muddy fields. I bet it was fun for some people but to me, as a guest who would most likely have spent money on a nice outfit, that seems a little strange.

My venue updated their fb status to say that yesterday's wedding had a barn owl fly the wedding rings down to the best man ? Not to insult anyone but that is totally ridiculous and OTT in my opinion.

What crazy stuff has everone else come across during wedding planning?

    A couple at our venue had had this too! Apparently made better by the fact it was 'the Harry Potter owl'. Well, no, not really.

    The oddest thing I've come across is a lucky chimney sweep at a wedding fair. And they were still trying to sell their services to me after I'd said we were having a church wedding. Total waste of cash in my opinion.

    My OH proposed in DisneyLand and for a little while we toyed with the idea of going back for the wedding...until we started looking through some of the 'packages'...the pictures of the bride and groom dressed up like Prince Charming and Cinderella and sitting on thrones in the castle, whilst Micky and Minnie greeted the guests was more than enough to make us change our minds!

    haha that's amazing!

    I'm getting married in December and tell everyone that if it snows I'll be arriving by a sledge pulled by huskies. I might up it to reindeer now!

    I went to a wedding earlier this year where the guests were handed a small cardboard package to be opened as the bride and groom walked back up the aisle.

    After many people shaking theirs (assuming it contained confetti) we found out they contained rather dazed butterflies...
