Planning a weding

[Milltown Row2]

A suggestion for the end of meal to get people talking/interacting.  Give the guests Lucky Bags

Stupid question, but what was in the lucky bags?

Divorce papers

My wife did her own make up. Saved a wee bit on that. She practiced different techniques that were on youtube. Don't know what a make up artist costs but if yer woman can be persuaded it might be worth while.

A colleague of mine just did a large hog roast on a spit as food. People just got bread baps, and queued for a slice of pig, then added their own apple sauce if they wanted. Handy way to do it.

It would be a real dry wedding if nobody was talking/interacting until the end of the meal.

Too much messing going on at weddings these days.
Video CD wedding invites, lottery tickets as favours, lucky bags, photo booths  I've never heard such bollix.

Load of tosh the lot of it.

Agreed!

The singing waiters haven't been mentioned yet.

[Apparently so]

As said, f**k off to another country and do it. Not as much shite to worry about

SouthDown, first of all, before you start planning the wedding day, have you selected a woman yet to be your awful wedded wife?

Getting married abroad is the way to do it. We did it that way and I have experienced it as a guest too. Surprised by the lack of value given to hiring a professional photographer, especially when people throw money at other things that will be long forgotten after the day. We ditched flowers - an unnecessary expense, although I'm sure some brides won't agree. We also didn't bother with a fancy car.

Unusual ways to ask for a woman's hand in marriage:

1) Would you like to be buried in the same plot as me?

[ONeill]

No speeches. No photos.

A handful of people and a ceile.

If anyone asks you to pause for a photo walk on. Cheap meal. Cheap drink.

Brilliant day.

Best wedding ive been to was in Milan in August. As someone said the guests can make a holiday out of it too (we stayed for a week). The food was amazing. 7 courses throughout the evening-tables out in the gardens by the pool.

Anyone know of any places which hire hummers in the Tyrone, Cavan, monaghan, Fermanagh direction? The chapel is in Clogher and reception in Cavan town. I've been quoted £500 from a Strabane based one but there may be more value in somewhere closer to Clogher/Cavan. Cheers

£500 sounds about right pal.
