4219 days agoAfter much deliberation I have come up with an idea for involving my mum in the wedding, she is going to be a witness. She can't hold a pen due to her illness so I have contacted the registrar who has advised that if she can't make a 'mark' then...

4227 days agoMy OH and I are humanists and my partner in particular is a strident atheist. It was never on the cards to have a church wedding and we are doing away with quite a lot of the traditions that weddings usually bring. I was just wondering if any of you...

4228 days agoSilly question but what does one do with one's train? My dress has a loop to put round your wrist for when you don't want it trailing, at what point in the day does a bride do this? I am having a seamstress create some sort of system to bustle it up...

4229 days agoI have just come across this gorgeous dress, and even better, it is in the sale at house of Fraser. However I am concerned that the reviews mention that it is very long. Neither of my BMs are particularly short but it seems this is an exceptionally...

4232 days agoMy mum is 56 and for 7 years has been suffering from an incurable progressive neurological disease that has left her virtually immobile, unable to speak, and most recently, eat and drink. She is a very ill lady but we are crossing our fingers and...

4240 days agoI'd like to know 1) if this looks really obviously DIY and amateurish, 2) Whether it is the right shape/size/enough branches for 100-110 guests. It is supposed to be a bonsai tree. It looks a bit yellowy because of the light but it is 'prussian blue'...

4243 days agoI could really do with some advice/support about something quite personal and not really to do with wedding planning at all. I feel embarrassed doing this on here but I'm not sure where else to turn. As some of you may know, following my fiance's...

4250 days agoI am having trouble finding someone to do my wedding hair and mu. Everyone I have emailed is either booked for my date or too expensive. One of the ladies I emailed has recommended this other lady and I have emailed her. She is free on my date and...

4254 days agoThis has been debated many a time but here goes. In the interests of promoting equality and seeing an end to one of the misogynistic and old fashioned traditions that marriage entertains, my OH and I have always wanted me to keep my surname and not...

4255 days agoI have found a hair and MU stylist and I would like to book her for my wedding. She has asked for £50 deposit to be transferred to her account but does not have a contract for me to sign. Just wondered if this was normal?

4262 days agoWe are likely to have around 100-120 guests at our wedding, most of whom are travelling long distances and I imagine most will want to book the jurys inn hotel which is 2 mins walk from the venue. We are getting married Easter bank holiday weekend...

4263 days agoSo I thought it was about time I did a planning thread, seeing as our wedding is now just 7 months away and not 2 years away as originally planned. Notice that many of these flashes are 'inspiration' as we really need to get our backsides into gear...
