    were quite lucky really our church hall has a white organza curtain with fairy light inside- could you go to your local haberdashery store and get it yourself??? then just look around for any unwanted silver/chrome poles?????

    I'm just wondering how hard it would be to do yourself as we can only get in the venue on the morning of wedding as there is another wedding the night before ours!!

    i was after fairy back drop but they wanted nearly £400 so was thinking about doing my own if i wanted it too much maybe check the bay hun u might find some nice material or even very long curtains which might help xx
