By Word Of Mouth’s Beautiful Bridal Day!
As we all know news being spread by word of mouth, normally travels the fastest. Whether you’re discussing the brilliant movie you’ve just seen, your embarrassing message you sent on Facebook, which you thought was private, turns out you wrote it on someone’s wall… or that girl who used to go to school with you and got pregnant by the woodwork teacher, and is now selling jams outside the Spar on Saturdays… Point is, news travels fast when it’s being told, discussed, whispered or shouted, by mouth.
So, the aptly named events company who definitely needs no introduction in South Africa, By Word of Mouth made my task very easy!

So this is my new fab find:) they certainly didn’t have these unusual toppers when I got married I have noticed a big trend in the last few months for unusual cake toppers and the ones with the couples fishing, shopping etc are so expensive and I think are R750!!!!

Hey Mr DJ!
So last night we met our DJ for the first time. He managed to arrive extremely early, which meant that I was still cooking (read as: warming up last night’s schnitzel and microwaving two potatoes) and so I was therefore a tad frazzled. However, he seemed nice and at least he wasn’t late (I abhor lateness), so we sat down with his massive folder of cds and started chatting about what we wanted.

Sparklers for your wedding
We had sparklers for our wedding, and we asked our guests to light them during our first dance. It looked stunning and I managed to find really nice ones that were about half a metre long. The little “Spur” sparklers were no good. I got a whole pack and they burnt out before they started going, so they’re sitting in my kitchen draw.
The only thing I found with the sparklers is that I couldnt find a nice way to display them, being so big, they really would look completely out of place on the tables.
