Hi, does anyone have any recommendations for a decent party band (playing pop/rock/soul/generic party stuff) who would play in Newcastle around £**** ish? Thanks!

I'm freaking out a little and would really appreciate some advice. At the weekend my fiancé and I talked about bringing the wedding forward, from August 2016 to early next year. This is mainly because my mum has a degenerative disease and we want to...

My OH and I are feminists. I often feel guilty therefore by the fact we didn't do away with the engagement ring tradition. We just went along with the 'man buys woman diamond' thing without even discussing it properly. Shortly after we got engaged I...

I have fallen in love with a dress that is over budget at £1257 rrp. It is harmony by enzoani from the spring 2013 collection. I have already called round all stockists of the dress local to me and a little further afield and they are all giving me...

There is a bridal studio near where I live but I've never been due to the fact our wedding is still 2 years away. Walked past today and OMG I love this dress! http://enzoani.com/view-collection/enzoani/archive/harmony I thought I wanted strapless but...

The more I look at dresses the more I want a different colour other than the standard ivory/white. Problem is I'm not really sure where to start. I really like this: http://www.bridalwave.tv/2008/12/gold_fanal_wedd.html ...but it's not quite right...

I am going to be bridesmaid for my FSIL and I was just wondering apart from the usual helping out on the day, walking down the aisle etc is there anything else I am expected to do? Do I buy her a present? (Obvs we are buying them as a couple a...

We are having bonsai trees as centrepieces but still have 2 years to wait. My OH caught sight of these which are being sold at Aldi from next week and only £7.99 (cheap compared to some, a venue dressing company quoted me £65 per tree and they were...

Just came across this article, may be helpful for anyone considering buying items from China: http://offbeatbride.com/2014/04/ebay-wedding-dress-made-in-china

We are attending a family wedding on Saturday, the reception is based in big 'yurt' style tents (with a decent reputable company) and it is forecast heavy rain and thunderstorms! The bride and groom are freaking out, trying desperately to think of...

I'm a teacher in a secondary school and have a Humanist contact who sometimes comes into school to talk about Humanism with my students. She was in today and the more I see her and hear about the way she conducts the ceremonies for weddings the more...

We have loads of time to sort this (see ticker) but I'm a worrier and really unsure of how to time our day. Our civil ceremony and reception are at the same venue so travelling between is not an issue, but what is an issue is that we have to be out...

How many of you are seeing your groom before you get to the end of the aisle at the ceremony? I'd love to know what your plans are, especially if you're not one for tradition like us. We are almost certain we will see each other before then, although...

My best friend rang me today to say she and her boyfriend are engaged :-) I'm so happy!!! I am going to send them a card asap but was thinking of giving them some light hearted non patronising tips e.g. 'don't let anyone tell you what to do' (ironic...

Hi, I wonder if anyone has come across a wedding insurance policy that covers existing illnesses of close relatives, as the ones I've looked into so far e.g. John Lewis only cover illness if it starts after the policy is taken out. My mum has...

There's a woman at work who keeps asking me if I've decided on colours and has used the term 'palette.' I'm not very artistic and not sure where to start on choosing wedding colours- any tips? How did you choose yours?
