Ive had people ask if im allowing kids or not - great to ask but i did chuckle, i have two of my own, i wouldnt say no
Me and my husband came off facebook etc for a few days around out wedding so people couldnt tag us in any photos they did put up till we were ready too look.From someone whose recently been married
don’t put a lot of money into favours -always forgotten about
Don’t bother on disposable cameras - by the time the guests use them , most have been drinking all day so you end up with loads of blurred drunken selfies and then you’ve wasted money on processing them
give your photographer a list of definite photos you want - most of them appreciate this
Don’t bother on signage saying no photos on social media ……. I had guests ignore it and do it anyway
awww that’s a good idea for someMe and my husband came off facebook etc for a few days around out wedding so people couldnt tag us in any photos they did put up till we were ready too look.
Tell them they will have an opportunity to take pics after you've signed the register or something like that, A couple of mins to get a snap then put phone away again. Less likely to try to 'sneak' them if they know there'll be an opportunity.I'll be saying no photos in the church, to try and avoid seeing smart phones up in our proper pictures.. hopefully people take heed! Ill bollock them if they dont lol
This is a good idea..... you don't want your official pics to have loads of people on their phones !I'll be saying no photos in the church, to try and avoid seeing smart phones up in our proper pictures.. hopefully people take heed! Ill bollock them if they dont lol
Considering it myselfThis thread is 100% confirming our decision to elope! Thank you all
Not fully eloping, we’ve told family - but it just avoids so many decisions and so much money to spend! Finally had a response from my dream venue too so hopefully we’ll be all booked in a couple of weeks… engaged to merrier in less than 6 monthsConsidering it myself
I'm delighted for you to make that decision for yourself and partner. Best of luck with it and hope it goes amazing for you.Not fully eloping, we’ve told family - but it just avoids so many decisions and so much money to spend!

Love this. I suggested a few things to my partner that aren't the "done" thing. He's a bit apprehensive but I've to remind him it's our day.My best advice?
do it however you as a couple want it, don’t try to make it be “a wedding” and start including stuff just because you think it’s expected. For example I personally absolutely bleeping hate the whole boring donught wall/pick & mix sweetie table etc
have it your way. It’s your wedding day and it should be whatever you want it to be not a tick box exercise.
Agreed!My best advice?

Not everyone likes children.No kids?
Pretty much everyone my age (early 30s) has kids now . Just seems miserable and snobby to ban them
We didn’t have kids at our wedding. Wasn’t miserable or snobby - we just wanted a chilled out day for the adults to enjoy without screaming kids running around or having meltdowns etcNo kids?

Especially as nowadays they are so badly behavedNot everyone likes children.
Nah, its fair enough for those without kids to want a kid free wedding. Its less stress without kids, parents can relax for the night. All my mates have kids and I have two of my own, so its not a rule id use but i get itNo kids?
