Grooms entrance - ladies, would you mind?
ajdown of Planning, 31 October, 2010 at 21:28

99p shops and other bargains
ajdown of Planning, 24 October, 2010 at 14:17

We were in our local "99p shop" earlier looking for a few bargains (non wedding related) and noticed that they had some bags of the "glass pebbles" the people often use in flower displays on tables,...

Are you finding it a bit overwhelming?

I don't know if I'm odd, but I want to be involved in every aspect of our wedding, after all, it's our big day, not just my bride-to-be. Now, I know I'm not supposed to know what dress she picks, and...

How brave would you be? re flash comments
ajdown of Planning, 10 October, 2010 at 14:26

One thing I've noticed is that in all the 'flash' threads, all the comments seem to be overwelmingly positive - "stunning", "beautiful", "you look gorgeous" etc. I can't believe that everyone finds...

Wedding fair - but can't find who's going to be there?
ajdown of Planning, 10 October, 2010 at 22:14

The photographer we have chosen is at a conveniently accessible wedding fair next weekend - found that on his site - but I can't find anywhere a list of what other exhibitors are going to be there. It...

I've just had a direct email about custom made wedding dresses from China come through to the email address I registered with hitched at. I can only think that somehow someone has sent it through here...

Wedding insurance confusion
ajdown of Planning, 30 September, 2010 at 08:24

It seems that 'wedding insurance' is considered a 'must have' by so many people these days but I'm somewhat confused by it all. Looking at the one that advertises on the site here, it's talking about...

Do guys go to wedding fairs?
ajdown of Planning, 25 September, 2010 at 19:58

Cost of a wedding
ajdown of Planning, 20 September, 2010 at 13:52

So it's amazing really how much the costs mount up. What are you spending on your 'big day' and how? We're looking at a licensed venue in the New Forest, and hope to do it for about £8000 altogether -...
