Bridesmaids? Sorry if that is on there - hope you don't mind me saying but it's a difficult post to read all bunched up - perhaps go on and paragraph it into clear sections - or a list. xx

Flowers I won't get a chance really to pick them till i can actually visit my venue which is the Eden Project and you are not aloud to bring in flowers from any where else as they could contaminate the flowers they are growing. Your also not aloud fake flowers. At the Eden Project The Flower Fairies at they are called will provide the bride and bridemaids with there bouquets also with the groom and his men there button wholes may be able to get away with corsages thoe Anything else you can think of ?? ♥ X

Hmmm what about getting little emerald taffeta bags,you can normally get 100 really cheaply.... And then put emerald foil covered choc eggs? You could probably buy them in bulk.... We was thinking of maybe giving a sampler Yankee candle per person they are £1 each, and they come in an array of colours also xx

U might have to preorder the colours u want or buy eggs unfoiled and order ur own foil to cover them.... The bay do bags really cheaply,about 12p a bag .... U can get eggs from most sweet shops... The shops that just do sweets,like the jarred sweets x
