I am quite the unconcise writer - so get a cuppa and prepare yourself for a feast of an elopement report, with probably several side helpings of tangential drivel... Our story starts in 2005, when we...
Hi everyone! I'm new here, recently engaged and starting to make plans for a 2016 wedding. We have a very clear idea of what we want - informal, in a barn with hay bales instead of seats etc, tractor...

Myself and my BM's have looked at BM dresses and they quite like either of these two (in sage green), they are from ebay though which does include the risk factor but my budget is quite low for the...
We have decided to hire light grey morning suits for groom, best man, two groomsmen, two young ushers, and father of the bride. My OH mentioned tonight about whether we needed to hire for his dad too....
Hi all I'm looking at doing my own table plan and really don't know where too start.... Do we match place cards, table names? Any advice will be welcomed thanks in advance :-)
I had my hair and make up trial last night and tbh I wasn't hugely wowed. I'm no proffessional but I'm very into doing my hair and make up, I don't feel she did anything I couldn't do myself! Let...
Okay, so thanks to InkedDoll’s excellent ‘what didn’t you know about weddings post’ I have now learned about ‘treasure the dress shoots’. I’ve done a search but couldn’t find any related threads, so I...
Hi all - new to the forums. Just got engaged 3 months ago & not thought about anything at all. People are constantly asking about setting a date but I don't know where to start - I guess with the...
Well meant to have our 3 month meeting with the venue today, go through seating plans and menus etc and chance for me to ask my mountain of questions i have so i can get on with organising our wedding...
We have got personalised bracelets for our BMs and MOH in our wedding colours but we're not sure whether to give them to them in the morning so they can wear them at the wedding or to give them out...
Had planned on Ho Hey by the Lumineers to leave ceremony but after being in Dublin at the weekend and hearing it sung far too many times by the live singers I've totally gone off it. Wedding is on...
I've been searching around for hairdressers for months now and I haven't really found any who have styles which take my fancy. I'm not into traditional bridal up dos with lots of curls and pins. To...
Hi all, just a quick question really (I hope). I had my name changed when I was a tot from my dad's surname to my mum's, and as a result, my birth certificate has a different surname on it than I use...
Has anyone on here used the website Light in the box for their bridesmaid dresses, have your experiences been good or bad x

Hi, I just thought that lately as there have been a few posts about bridesmaid troubles, perhaps it would be nice to share how wonderful our bridesmaids can be. I'll start: We're getting married in...
I finally got the guts to just go and buy a dress.... I was in the shop for 20 mins and in that time I managed to try on 3 dresses and purchase mine... A very impulsive buy, but it is a dress I've...
So we were having a discussion about the reception and H2B wants guests to switch tables between courses so everyone gets to 'mingle' as he puts it. Now in my opinion this isn't very practical and I'm...
Does your partner know what you'll be walking down the aisle to? I decided on what Im probably going to have the other night whilst he was out, and I was like hmm, do I tell him or not? I was thinking...
I just read the average age for a woman in the UK to get married is 28.9 years old (For men it's 30.8 years). Clearly then, at 32, I'm considered an 'older than average' bride. ️?️ Quite a lot of the...
I'm presuming it's just because it's all getting so close now, but don't know what is wrong with me today. Picked up my dress yesterday, really happy and loved it, but today I'm convinced it's not the...

So... as it says above.... do we have some dress twins knocking around and not realised? For anyone who has bought a dress, yet to wear it or an OM, post your dress designer and make below and I will...
