So i have been looking for dresses, i would really like to have at least two bridesmaids and one flower girl, i have been looking at dresses on www.lightinthebox.com they are really cheap and actually look quite nice, the only concern is that they are coming from China and i don't know if it is too big a risk? the dresses i like are only £35 though so i guess if i order one and then see how it is when it arrives?
Also i have been looking at bar hire, but no-one seems to want to tell you how much it will cost you, big clue - if you have to ask its too much, I'm going to send off for a few quotes tonight and then i will post up the prices and where from etc when they get back to me. what I'm hoping to do is have a free cocktail bar (Nick's brother has offered to run this for us) and champagne for the first few hours, this will be whilst the food is being done for the limited guests and then have a full on pay bar for when everyone else arrives. The other option is to start buying drinks now and hoarding them until the wedding this will solve the problem of paying for a licence as we will be giving the drink away so this may actually save us money but then my worry would be what if we didnt have enough alcohol to last the night? what if we picked the wrong drinks?

Of all the things I planned for, I never fully realized how important alcohol was to the wedding. We stopped the bar an hour before the end of the reception and everyone left! My suggestion is to have a bar (all night) and to keep it simple. Kegs and wine my dear. You can't go wrong with that. Good luck!
hiya! thanks, i will let you know which we decide to do as im heavily leaning toward the free bar side now so that people dont have to pay for their drinks xx
