    I spoke to them and was told 999 this is for

    Red carpet on arrival
    Dedicated booking contact
    Informal host on the day
    Civil ceremony room hire
    Bucks fizz reception and sandwiches for 30 guests
    Evening reception room hire
    Evening buffet for 80 guests *
    Late bar extension
    DJ entertainment until 12.30am

    need to play around with figures and obviosly want decorations etc, am not using the ceremony hire as having a church wedding sitting here waiting for them to call me back but they have saved me the date x
    I like your bits at the bottom we off to the Dom Repuplic for the honeymoon 0n the mon after wedding now that is booked and paid for lol x

    I'm having a holiday in wedding in aylesbury, the 999 package is very different to your holiday inn
    standard package was:

    Bucks fizz for 35 guests
    3course Wedding breakfast for 35 guests
    Room hire for ceremony, breakfast and buffet
    Cake stand and sword
    Red carpet
    Evening buffet for 50
    Evening room hire
    Master of ceremonies
    Personal wedding planner
    Complimentary bridal suite for bride and groom

    I added another 20 guests, seat covers, a supplement to marry in their licensed courtyard thing which is why I picked this one, 8 bottles of wine, 12 jugs of juice and I removed the evening reception because I don't want one. Dunno how much I've spent but it's really nice and brilliant value, it has excellent feedback on trip advisor from other people who got married there

    eru, shiteiru ka? shinigami wa ringo shika tabenai?

    Well im still waiting for them to call me back even though the date is provisionally booked. So i am off to another venue at the local country restaurant, it looks lovelly set in the woods and they reckon they can give me a buffet for 80 seat covers tableclothes etc , the toast disco and fully decorate it for under 1500 , I dont want nothing fancy lol did all that before dont get me wrong it lasted 25 years with 4 lovelly children but we were way too young at 17 to realise we would want different things.

    We went in for a meeting with Holiday Inn, Taunton this weekend and it was fantastic. The women showing us around was very on the ball, organised and sooo passionate and its a definite possibility for us. We were offered a £4500 package though and that was:

    Sit down 3 course meal for 50 people
    Evening Buffet for 100
    DJ
    Flowers on all tables
    Balloons (wouldn't have as hate balloons)
    Drinks on arrival, with meal and sparkling wine for toast.
    Linen for tables.
    Cake stand.

    It was a really good deal and then only need to add extra few guests on and 20 of them are children anyway so half price, xxx

    Taunton is in Somerset.... yours is alot cheaper than mine. It may be the location? We have found Somerset is expensive as so rural so less choice on venues. However you sound like you have a good deal, were not going with the Holiday Inn now as found somewhere else that is easier for location. xxx

    Well we live in Birmingham and plenty of choice here and cheaper but Somerset is where my mum lives and the church is what i have dreamed about so doing the wedding 120 miles away... not too bad but half our guests have to travel too. xx

    I hope so as really worrying me about people staying and having to pay out for a hotel... his sister said she would be coming back that night as cant afford it but only £80 per night and surely with a years notice people can save and wont mind paying out? xx
