How do I repair a scorched veil?
My MIL still has her 40+ yr old veil. I would love to wear it for my wedding in October but it was in a house fire about 10 years ago & it's turned yellow in parts. I took it to a bridal restoration shop & they said they can try to restore it but if it's scorched it will stay yellow. It's tulle, it's a perfect length, it goes perfect with my dress & it's something old as well as something borrowed! Please help?! Can tulle be repaired from scorching?

1 answersWhat kind of flowers will be available in the Sunshine Coast, QLD, in June?
I want to know what will be easily available, but still beautiful for a wedding. I quite like peonies and large flowers that flop around like that - nothing too structured like a tulip. Thank-you.

2 answersHow to style a table centerpiece/room?
Our theme is kinda boho-vintage.. Doilies, wood slabs, beautiful coloured and crystal pieces, brass candelabras and candlesticks, candles, lace/doily bunting, festoon lighting etc... I'm just wondering on how to bring all of these pieces together? Whether to add gold charger plates or if that'd be too much. The tables are oval so its hard to find pintrest inspo on how to style them, do i add a hessian or lace table runner or add greenery to run the length of the table? I want to make it beautiful but not OTT... I wonder how to style the rest of the room too as its quite a simple white room with big windows on 1 side and railway station front vibes on the other side... i was going to add the festoon lighting above the area where the reception will be but i don't know if this will be enough? Sorry for the long question I'm just overwhelmed. Any help would be appreciated. Even if you could recommend an affordable stylist in QLD Ipswich/Brisbane area that may be able to help my vision.

1 answersTo have lawn games or to not have lawn games?
We know that our photos are going to take at least 3 hrs after the ceremony and we will have pre-canapes avaliable as well as the bar... my mum seems to think this is enough. However i still like the idea of hiring out some games for the guests to pass the time... we won't have too many children there and everyone is family so I'm just looking for some advice as to whether its worth me spending the money on it and if people are going to use them?
