I was astounded at how much our simle wedding cost way back in the day, and that ended up being more conventional than I had planned because it turned out that TNG wanted it that way, but the eye-watering sums spent on events with fancy chair covers matching the table runners and the party favours and chocolate fountains seem to be a tad excessive, and all so samey too. Your day sounds as if it will be uniquely yours, and will celebrate your values as well as your marriage, which is wonderful. Hats off to you, and marrying in fforest in Autumn should be wonderful. I hope you get one of those perfect autumn days of clear blue skies and sun with that hint of snap in the air and the perfect smell of just-starting-to-become-leafmould.

Have also been roped into doing photos and flowers (the latter set me off on my current career change as I loved it so much!) - so get your mates together and start doling out the jobs! It's fun for other people to feel involved in the proceedings as well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07609378570741596783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3810916424535818779.post-90138913195380134532013-10-10T18:03:51.275+01:002013-10-10T18:03:51.275+01:00Remind me, in a while, I thought this was a really...Remind me, in a while, I thought this was a really good idea to do lots of it ourselves. ;)Fay McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14573998704716650377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3810916424535818779.post-10469937168714826022013-10-10T18:03:10.398+01:002013-10-10T18:03:10.398+01:00Your intentions appear to be honest but a link sug...Your intentions appear to be honest but a link suggests not - off to give you the benefit of the doubt before I actually consider your reply fully.Fay McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14573998704716650377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3810916424535818779.post-34099811094267558742013-10-10T18:02:06.928+01:002013-10-10T18:02:06.928+01:00Of course - do people waltz in any other way?

Although it may be more convenient for families with children to attend the wedding during the summer when the weather is nice and sunny, consider an off-season month, such as November or January, to cut your costs. This will also save you money when you book your honeymoon.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.manoirrouvillecampbell.com" rel="nofollow"> Salle de reception </a>thompson4https://www.blogger.com/profile/13015365402830093028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3810916424535818779.post-44842983896210143272013-10-10T12:27:53.901+01:002013-10-10T12:27:53.901+01:00Oh my!
