Wedding fair

Well today Lesley,Debbie,Susan & i went to a wedding fair in Dundee & boy what a day it was.There was 90 stalls there all with different ideas & prices my best stalls were the wedding cake stalls i have never ate so much wedding cake in my life it was all beautiful.Some of the prices that people are charging is really a joke one photographer wants £1,900 for 50 photo's & a silk wedding album ok they were nice but i wouldn't pay that kind of money the same guy wants £ 800.00 for a basic package wedding video i mean where do they get their prices from.Just as well my brother is doing the photgraphy he is semi professional & all lesley has to pay for is the album there was a couple of ladies there with hand made wedding stationery very small cards with ie a heart stuck in the middle there was one that had ribbon down the middle with a bow stuck on it the ribbon was squint they were charging day/evening invitations FROM £2.20 i know i shouldn't judge other crafters work but they really weren't worth the money.They had a fashion show some nice dresses but i wasn't really looking at the dresses more at the young lads in kilts doing cartwheels (Just a pity they had boxers on)HA HA.All our heads are buzzing with everything that went on i think Susan got the biggest shock she never realised how much things cost she just kept saying i'm not going to have enough money for my wedding but i have told her not to worry about it & that we will sit down next week & make a list of what she really needs & what she really doesn't i'm sure we will come up with a suitable budget for her.Well thats all for now oh except Blair booked their band today so that's something else done.
