To Cover or Not to Cover!!!

Ah thanks for that, wasnt sure, read somewhere else that it wouldnt suit curtains, but maybe that was for a summer wedding where it would still be bright outside, as Im getting amrried in October, by the time we sit for the meal its guna be dark or getting dark.

How far in advance are you all looking at venue decoration and/or church decoration, ive over 2 years to go, but thinking of looking at ideas so I know exactly what I want when the time comes to book maybe this time next year or beginning of 2012?

you should defo justhave a look now and get ideas and know the prices etc id say if i were you id start booking a year before, im still only booking stuff now and ive just under nine months to go!! if you want to be spot on time wity things have a look at the wedding planner on this site it gives a rough idea on when to look and book all aspects of the wedding!!

[grogmg]

Yeh, its just coz ive 2 years to dont know how soon I should book or how long I sud leave things.

im listing ideas that i have and i have a wedding folder on my computer so if there is somethin i like i add it to it and i will look at it again in the next 6months and narrow some of the stuff down. Im at 18months to go now so i will want to have most things organisd in at the year to go point!! I hope!

Ive a wedding folder aswell, thinking of making a list of everything that I have and everyting that I need to do and put a date next to them by when I want it sorted by! Alos guna have a seperate list of things that I would like but not essential if I have the budget for them!!!!

it would look great, it adds such a nice touch to the wedding!! i was delighted that the hotel have one ,it wasnt advertised in their package or anything but after getting a few quotes from companys i got the bright idea to ask the hotel lol... sure enough they had one and its not costing me anything extra!! you can even get smaller ones to go behind your cake table!! another thimng i would love but cant afford and its not a must but adds a nice touch is getting people in to do the lighting!! is anyone doing that?

[grogmg]

Im not getting ppl in for lighting, I am having a candle lit meal as my centre pieces are going to be candleabras supplied by the hotel so think it would be a fab touch and then the bad have their own light show so dont need one for afterwards either.

i wish i could afford a band!!

Im getting a great deal with my band, band and dj for €1200!! Good music is important to me for a party so I was always going to have a band, because if the music and atmosphere is bad It'l put a damper on my mood, and im not pretty when im in a mood or a huff!
