Most bridesmaids would love you for a bride...

ChicPinky, I LOVE that BM dress. Do you mind telling me where it's from as the cour and style would be perfect for what we're thinking too. And, we too were thinking yellow tulips and white cala lillies, although we may use something other than white lilies. I like the idea of iris'. Depending on the style of wedding, you could look at hydrangeas as they come in so many different shades, from white, pink, blue, silver, purple....

Here are a couple of suggestions: black and red with damask Simple and Elegant Shabby Chic Flourish or Birds Just some examples Hope they help!

Oh ok... I didn't realise that... that's cool. Up to you obviously... but in my IMO i would still check out wholesale as often you'll be able to find something of a similar quality cheaper.

^^ Wah, no FB access at work Please keep them up for a couple of days becky so that we don't miss out!! __________________ Walking down the aisle 20th February 2010..!

^ shinestar: I LOVE that! We were going to have all the places we have been on holidays, but I just ran out of time to organise it. I am not sure if I read it here or in a mag, but a couple who had their dog model all the table numbers around its neck and then they used the photos of this for the table numbers. Very cute too! I think something like either of them adds a lovely personal touch

Love the idea of those rings emmiebe - We've been unable to even think of an inscription for ours and they're already made! Really like that reading too...hmmmm so many ideas to incorporate.....

^^ we did the word of mouth thing ... and not a lot of people bought us gifts. I think most thought that the gift was their presence at our wedding (which all had to travel for)... (we weren't a fan of card in invite either) only a few bought us gifts from their own ideas (eek! so that's good.. may have some ebay items soon ... hehe

I'm not sure if she offers the kind of service you are looking for, but Megan from Avocado Group was our on-the-ground-contact-person for our reception and she was fantastic.

Im not in Sydney so cant help with a specific rec, but we have a similar set up and we are getting a day co-ordinator for the same reason. For our venue we are literally renting the blank space, so nothing is included and we are having to hire absolutely everything, (from about 6 different vendors) Nor is there a "functions co-ordinator" or anyone who can give us recommendations or advice.. I wanted someone there on the day...
