    For table names, you could use the names from these films like for Cinderella you could have ugly sisters etc or you could use names of items of things like pumpkin, mice etc!

    Sorry I can't help much more x

    For tables names you could also have names of characters from pride and prejudice mixed on?

    Sparkles on the tables. You could have ivy entwined with fairy lights to make it look like an enchanted night - really romantic?

    Alfred Angelo makes Disney-themed bridal & BM dresses. Would the person you gave you the dresses be happy for you to sell them and put the money towards Disney style BM dresses? Evening tails sounds really romantic.
    Watch lots of Disney films - make notes on what u like and do the same with Pride and Prejudice then start researching what you want to put into your wedding and how to go about it?

    Hope any of this helps X

    I think Cinderella and Pride and Prejudice clash quite a bit. That doesn't mean it doesn't work but what elements of each are important to you?

    i wanted the big cinderella style dress (which obviously doesnt fit with p&p) and the evening tails and dancing and other bits from pride and prejudice plus the music! I also adore disney i never grew up so i want that music too.This is the problem i was having, tying it all together!

    yeah i kinda see your point LMB - cinderella is big princessy dresses and p&p would be more simple and empire line... i guess if you're going rally princessy you could have the pumpkin for the carriage and stuff! or little "glass" slippers as decorations, and the ivy and fairy lights would def be perfect. it'd probably be a bit more formal for p&p type stuff?

    Might be difficult to put the two together, maybe you could have a cinderella style ceremony and meal and then a regency themed evening do. xx

    I think they clash the most in styling - Cinderella is all blingy and glitzy with tbe typical Disney elements (pumpkin etc.) whereas P&P is equally oppulent but elegant. Silver candelabras, possibly dark book centerpieces, dark wood antiques and pastel coloured flowers with lots of green mixed in. That' how I would envision it.

    But I think the music could tie it together because after all Cinderella is much much older than P&P and the Grimm version is "only" 200 years older than P&P (I think) - so classical music coming from a harpischord is not lost on Cinderella :-))

    I agree with littlemissbossy.... pride and prejudice and cinderalla are completely different. I have gone for a P and P theme and have gone for white flowers everywhere, old style venue, SQ etc, BM's dresses with lace up back etc and am having my hair half up and half down. I know my dress doesnt quite fit haha but never mind. Have a look in my profile see if you see any ideas? Not all of it is P n P but there are defo strong elements in there e.g. the cake and the suits. I am still working on this myself to be honest as I am not 100% sure I have enough

    cant wait to be Mrs Evans less than 3 weeks woooo

    weight now 8st 4.5 lbs
    total loss to date: 24.5 lbs now need to maintain!
