    We thought about one then decided I would probably manage to get it all over me.

    Were getting one for ours as my stepmum is getting it for us, its a lot of money for something that isnt essental, but on the other hand they look lovley and allways go down well with the guests! I wudnt worry to much about the mess or with children being around as most companys only hire them out with a person there to over see whats happening for hygine reasons.x

    we are having one as we are having a buffet and no desserts, so thought it would be nice, there is staff to look after ours, so fingers crossed it wont be too messy x

    It was an idea we toyed with in the early stages of planning, but as a lot of the ladies have said, chocolate fountain + kids + white/ivory dress = MASSIVE disaster!!
    Plus we weighed up the cost side and for what it is it's a ridiculous amount of money, you're talking £300 for dessert alone and imo unless you're providing for 150 guests then it's not really financially feasible.
    They do look rather fab though!

    It's right what they say
    "The course of true love never runs smoothly"
    But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
    much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D

    Against health and safety how exactly? I've never heard that one before and I've worked a gadzillion wedding venues.
    AH
    Unless they mean risk from trailing wires from fountain to socket, now that could be why

    we have 140 guests so it will work out cheaper for us to have the fountain and i think the guests will love it, but i wont go near it. x

    ive booked a fountain for ours. it was a bit of a childish impulse thing. we went to a wedding fair and there was one set up, if you booked it that day you got £50 discount and a bottle of champers on the day. my inner chocoholic took over and i had to have one! lol x

    We would have loved one for ours, saw one at a wedding fair and i had to drag h2b away from it, lol, but decided that with all the kids and my dress, i could quickly turn into a bridezilla if i got any on me, so we are opting for a candy buffet instead, so i get to have the sweets in my colour theme, and the kids will be happy too! x
