Silk flowers will be cheaper than real flowers

Sparkling wine rather than champagne

Serve cake as dessert

september tho do you think 4pm is light enough for pics etc? xx

Would you be having a civil or religious ceremony? You could get married at 3, drinks reception till 5.30, then line up, speeches, and serve food at 6.30? x

Religious boofle

that is a rather good idea! xx

 

[booflebump]

Religious ceremonies can be up to 45 minutes, and then if you have to travel to the venue, remember to count that in to the timings xxx
