Discussions I've Participated In

I've noticed 2016 wedding threads becoming more frequent recently, so I thought I'd get the list started for 2016 brides! The 2015 thread was only a couple of months later in the timeframe than this...

Hi all! I was hoping somebody would be able to help me out with a dressmaker in the West Yorkshire area? I have found a design for a dress I love and after hours and hours of research I'm pretty...

Hello. I feel like crying. My dress was perfect, but the seamstress who'd adjusted it to my measurements, insisted that the feature at the front was sticking out a bit. She said she was too much of a...

Hi, I'm new here so hello . I'll give a little background, if that's ok, and then launch into what will probably turn into a massive post. It's a lot about getting it all out but also I could do with...

Hi I am looking for someone to do my bridal bouquet and bridesmaids, after someone put me off DIY-ing the lot myself to save money! I really want fresh flowers though. Does anyone know any cheap /...

I have searched high and low and can't seem to find what we are looking for! Ideally I would like a house with a civil ceremony licence that can sleep 20 (or two houses next to each other) so we can...

So I happily told my venue, dress, etc etc that I wasn't putting down my deposits just yet as I was getting my wedding insurance first so everything could be covered, 'so please, hold your horses,...

..... and if they can make as awesome a a sound with a piano, guitar and a voice as they did in a small & empty social club room, I cant wait to hear them at our venue!!! We were so impressed,...

Hey all! So I rang the dress shop today, and was told I've left it too late to order bridesmaid dress that we'd chosen (getting married in November?!). On top of that, one of my bridesmaids is...

Is anyone getting their wedding dress specially made? I'm toying with the idea as I haven't found anything I like so far. But I have no idea on whether or it would fit within my budget. I'm after a...

Sorry it's a moan I really feel like I need to let it all out I've been crying all night. Originally when discussing hen do L (sil2b) LH (best friend) and S (step sister) we're saying how we should do...

Just curious. The site, prices and dresses look too good to be true, and can't really seem to find any legit reviews online... - http://www.sofiehouse.com/

It's not really a wedding wedding, it's just a small ceremony and private dining with wedding cake. Can anyone suggest a photographer for about 4 hours? All the ones i've contacted want about...

My aunty has very kindly offered to make my bridesmaid dresses for me, I just need to provide her with a pattern. This is proving much more difficult than anticipated! I've just spent the best part of...

So, with 6 weeks today until our wedding, our venue have just emailed me to say that there is scaffolding going up all over the building which will remain there for our wedding day. The venue has...

Hello Ladies I wanted to know who you all have your insurance with? Just paid deposit on venue today so next step is to get that in place. I have to be honest I have only looked at John Lewis so far...

So, update to my last post about my concerns over our venue - we met with them on Friday, and she did very little to allay my concerns. She insisted that us providing our own public liability...

Inspired by the competitive cheapness if houses on the budget thread I wondered what the cheapest house in your area is.rules are thus: must be on rightmove must be within a mile of your home pistcode...

Does anyone know of any dressmakers that they or a friend has had experience with that could design a new dress with material from a vintage lace dress? It's my Grandma's wedding dress but I want it...

I'm considering going to a wedding dress outlet instead of your normal bridal boutique for my wedding dress. I know a few people who have gone and they've all said it was fantastic. I've never been...

I have the most first-world, pointless issue to turn you all of you with. I spoke to a designer who can make me an amazing dress, is the nicest woman alive, and is based in London (fairly far away 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:...

Hi, bit of a longshot i think but i'm looking for a way i can keep my sister involved in the hen planning process. I'm looking at April next year - which i know seems a long way off but for a weekend...

This time last month I was almost convinced that we had a date set - I'd even spoken to the venue about it... but then I had an emotional time as I realised that my late dad couldn't be there. I got...

Can anybody recommend a reliable dressmaker in the Manchester area?

How do you shop around to find best price for a dress? I have a shortlist of dresses I'm after I've been to a couple of shops but they are way out of my price range and I have been unsuccessful at...

So my H2B has enquired about how much a local band (who is is friends with some of the members of) charges for playing and it seems like a lot. Just wondering how much one should expect to pay? And...

I was just curious (if you don't mind me asking!) how much you are paying per person for evening food? And what type of food - buffet/hog roast etc.

We went to see if a local jeweller could re-size my ring today, and I am so upset.... back story: some of you may have seen my proposal story in an ER flash a couple of months ago.... basically, my...
