Wifeytobe88, 25 June, 2013 at 15:14

Inspired by the (possible troll) thread on 'upset bride to be'... Approx how much is your wedding costing, and how are you paying for it? Ours is going to come in at around £11-12k. My (v generous)...

spenerella, 20 June, 2013 at 20:12

We're getting married in Santorini next year and there is a TOG included in our package. I know someone who has used him and have seen lots of pics so I'm not too nervous (alright, I'm pretty...

Anyone ever made their wedding cake
