There are lots of nice things you can add to your wedding, which most people will recommend but they fucking add up, and quickly. Not just in terms of cost but also in organising and decision making. Very few people will remember the "favours" on a wedding table a month after the day.
We didn't have favours on our tables, but we had edible centrepieces, which went down a treat. Â Basically, a tree of white and dark chocolate coated strawberries on each table.mk64 wrote:Very few people will remember the "favours" on a wedding table a month after the day.

As far as I see it, there are the following things to sort out - - Wedding itself (for us, it will not be a religious one - what's the best way around this? Where etc?) - Venue - We're having about 80 for the meal, then around 50 others afterwards. - Music - Flowers - Outfits - Transport Now, I know that hotels etc can put a lot of this into a package deal (ie venue, food, decorations, dj etc) but I'm wondering what experience people have had with all this - what's the likely cost of this going to be? We really don't want a fancy glitzy thing, but at the same time, don't want to seem cheap or anyfin.
