Hi....
Thought I'd make a post for us to exchange info about the plans for our weddings
Just copy & paste the questions with your answers..Here goes.....

Date: 22/5/2010
Ceremony time: 2pm
Hair: Flair4Hair http://www.flair4hair.com.au
That's pretty much all I've decided on at this stage
Not sure if I want to make my own invitations or get them made, I haven't looked into prices yet so that will probably be the decider because I need about 250 of them
Add anything else you want!!

How many people are you having at your wedding? 250 seems like a lot of invitations.
I'm making our invitations we are having 350 people so will probably make 150 just to be safe

Hope to hear from you Pinkprincess or any other Adelaide brides?

[pinkprincess]

Yay...Another Adelaide bride!!
Hi bride2b
Your plans sound gr8 so far!! If u don't mind me asking is the limo costing you much and how long are you using it?
Wow 10 course banquet!! Yum!!
I will probably only be having a pre dinner with drinks (entre) , main, dessert & cake later
Typo!! I will need about 80 (?) not 250 invites , god forbid!! So far we have about 150 people in total on the list so far
I haven't heard of Angel dust beauty?
so glad I have someone to swap ideas with
Can't wait to hear more!

[***bride2b***]

Good to hear from u pinkprincess!
Were using La limousines & having a black chrysler stretch. Were having if for 5 hours & its $1450.00.
I couldn't believe how expensive limos were but for the chrysler that was the best price i could find....

I was about to say 250 invites would drive me crazy!I have to make about 170 & thats enough!!
I brought the main card for my invitations yesterday. In most shops it was $8 for 10 & i found card that is just as good for $2 for 10 at cheap chips! who would think?! So instead of costing me $136.00 it only cost $34.00 for the card I was so exited to find this just had to share it with u!

Angel dust beauty is different to Kara, i just can't decide which one
Have u decided on colours for reception/flowers/invites yet?

[pinkprincess]

Wow great score with the card...I will def check it out!! Thanks so much for letting me know
Those places are great for finding little nic nacs!!
Yeah limo's aren't cheap and probably the one thing thats causing a big negative for me
I have pretty much decided on olive green and dusty pink I can't describe it but the combo looks amazing together My fellas not into the real girly colours so the green was his choice
What about you have you decided on colours? What about your cake? I can't wait to go taste testing but might be a bit early for that yet...heheh unless I go now and then again later, migh b a bit cheeky tho??
Gr8 to hear your plans & thanx again for the tip on the card supplies

I was lucky to get Jeanette so I'm wrapped with my choice there.....You are super organised
I couldn't wait to do something so had a trial with Jeanete for a special nite out I had...It was FANTASTIC I'm so excited for my day now! She is so accommodating and I usually don't like speaking up (hard to imagine, I know) but she made me feel so comfortable and checked everything she did for me to make sure I was happy...I totally LOVED it...noone has ever done my hair where i loved it so much.....Im only going to let her cut & colour it too now.
