tree wood slices!

Sorry, but I think I'm missing something here. Is your theme rustic woodland or carnival/fairground? Or a mixture of the two? It's just you've posted two messages about two different themes?

Sorry for confusion!

I'm having two events!!

My henna party is circus/ carnival/ fairground theme and my actually hindu wedding and reception is woodland theme!

Ah! This makes more sense! You might want to update your posts to make that clear, otherwise it might look like you're one of those nasty internet trolls!

EBay have loads of them it wouldn't let me share the link but just search wood slices. They are really cheap too.

EBay Have them really cheap just search wood slices.

Maybe try notonthehighstreet.com and type in 'log slices' - lots of different options come up :0)

Hope that helps x

I saw the tree slices on eBay for about £8 each. Luckily only need one myself though! You could contact an independent tree surgeon and see if they can help out for a fair rate.

Try rusticweddingsettings.co.uk

Wood is expensive because it's primary use isn't wedding decoration - it's a source of fuel in a lot of homes etc still and fuel costs!

Unfortunately it's an expensive decoration for weddings unless you live on a farm/ know someone who does.

Do you have a forest farm shop near you? We bought a huuuuuge load of large log chunks for £50 from our local one. Various shapes and sizes. Filled the entire back of the car and the boot!

They also sell wood log slices (mismatched, you choose your own) for £5 each. We got a massive one, at least 40cm across for a fiver. Couldn't believe our luck!

Definitely pop in if you have one near you.

I have a local guy that sells logs doing mine for me & he is not charging as my parents know him! Result!

When do you need them for?

sam&louise where abouts is that shop?

There are quite a few woodlands trust in London where they often have to remove trees due overcrowding or safety concerns. Have you tried contacting them? Richomond park, Sydnems/dulwich woods all spring to mind

My FIL is getting us some from a local tree surgeon, as someone suggested that may be an option?

Thansk all for recommendations!

I need it for end of July!

I shall keep asking round but no luck so far!

We have 2 local to us in Essex. I'm not sure if they're a nationwide chain or just one offs down here. One is just next to Fairlop station on the London central line and the other is over in marks gate (where we got ours from)

I got mine on eBay. Found 10 for £70, and they had loads of different size options.

I tried local tree surgeons and got no joy. I think it's a very odd request from their perspective.

Good luck with the search

Hello there everyone

For a rustic woodland theme, those wood slices and trunk chunks look amazing, but you’re right they can get pricey fast, especially when ordered in bulk. You might have better luck reaching out to local tree surgeons or arborists who handle removals regularly, as they often have spare wood they’re happy to sell for much less. Firewood suppliers, sawmills, or even local farms can also be good options for chunky slabs and log sections.

When trees are removed for safety or property reasons, the wood is often reused or repurposed, which keeps costs down. That’s something we see a lot with Tree Pruning & Trimming in Moncton , where clients sometimes ask to keep slices or trunk pieces for décor or landscaping. It’s worth asking locally, you may be surprised what’s available if you connect with the right people
