Pimms!

I fr!gging hate champers!

I would deffinatly prefer pimms especially in summer.

Waaah! don't beat about the bush will ya!

(aside) you know those mason jars you're after - have you found any yet? Not that this is necessarily any help but I'm collecting the large hexagonal jars for my wedding - they're really quite thick glass - to use for flowers. If after my wedding you want them, you're more than welcome (aside)

Pimms Pimms Pimms

every time in fact all the time if I could!

Either or both!!!! WOuldn't mind a glass of pimms now.......?

At my friends wedding last week she had both on offer for welcome drinks, not sure if that's an option for you but i think that's what i'm going to do.

I can't stand the taste of pimms, I've seen it;s a bit like marmite...you're either a lover or a hater.

I wouldn't mind a bucks fizz option! ?

Thanks girls .

3-0 to Pimm's so far!

Im having pimms as welcome drink and then a champagne toast after the ceremony, for the toast / speeches im using a cheaper sparkling prosecco wine as after a heavy meal you can't tast the champagne anyway so i feel it is a waste, although i will be drink champagne all day my perogative being bride i think!!!!

I've lost count now, you girlies are too fast at responding!

M&S do a fabby rose prosecco - "Prosecco Raboso" I think it's called. It's yummy and may be another option alongside our Pimm's!

Oooh Pimms, definitely!

Pimms would do nicely just about now!

Thank you for the info unfortunately our wedding venue wont let us bring our own but will double the cost for the pleasure however thats what you pay for the location and i wouldn't change it for the world!!

Will definately grab a bottle of m&s rose prosecco and 'quaf' all to myself one evening cant wait wil let you know my thoughts!!!

No. Suz (PW) found some which were similar, but I want the aqua ones (bridezillaish icon!) lol!

That's very kind of you. Thanks.

I LOVE pimms and champers !! so can I vote for both !!

if its sunny then an icy pimms goes down a treat but you cant beat something sparkly for a celebration !!

sorry that doesnt help at all ?

BTW for info we are having champers and pimms at our wedding and I intend on having at least a few glasses of each !! ?

ooooooooooooooh.. {ooh la la gets out wedding planning folder and starts furiously scribbling!}

We had Pimms for ours and everyone said how nce it was to have something different! And every lass of Pimms went

I'm going to have to do both aren't I lol!

Mmm, I see a trip to the supermarket coming on.....

We had the same decision to make and opted for half bucks fizz and the other half Pimms.

We are having pimms as a welcome drink for the adults, and fruit shoots for the kids. The sparkling wine I think for the toast

ps made note of rose wine big fan love it especially in this weather...

Just for info - this is what the Prosecco Raboso looks like:-

and it's on offer as well for bottles of 12 - even better - http://www.marksandspencer.com/gp/search?field-keywords=prosecco&node=42966030&viewID=all-product-search

although you can buy it individually (and no i'm not on commission!)

Pimms Royale (i.e. Pimms with champagne)

Sorted.

Champers every time for me! ?

Now thats the kind of thinking we need...

I honestly don't know how any of you plan a wedding without me.

Champagne and Pimm's....eugh!

That's like adding Kidney to a perfectly good Steak pie!
