im getting married july 24th, in caerphilly town centre, ive gone and picked the date where the most important event of the year, THE BIG CHEESE is taking place right next door, so my wedding photos outside the castle are a definate no. the road will also be shut and parking for my guests will be very limited, im at my wits end as i have also just found out they are shutting the road which means that my bridesmaids limo will not be able to turn around. plus tthe trffic wardens will be out in force.moving my date would be a disaster as everything is already booked and nearly paid for. nightmare from start to finish!!!!!!!!!!!

i know its the worst thing to bring to caerphilly , but also the best, imagine having your wedding pictures done there with some bloke in the background holding a can of carling, urgh the thought lol. although do look out for me on july 24th !!!! xx

Awww honey!! Try not to fret, as i am SURE that they will let your bridesmaids limo turn around. Why not give the police a ring and tell them about your concerns and see if they can offer you any advice or help about parking and getting your bridesmaids there etc??

I think ringing the police is a really good idea - it will help them as well - they will plan before the event and if they know your wedding is going on they may also be able to help - even if it is only to let you know times the road is shutting etc...

the road is shut from the fri through till the sunday, i think i will ring the local police station to try and ease my nerves.

I am ashamed to say-I have never actually been! Hate crowds-and people who walk really slow in front of you! I think it's coz I live so close it annoys me! Or I am a miserable biatch! Lol. Though I may come back for it when i've moved away! :)

Went to the continental market-when the tardis was on the castle? Lost track of the time-it was bloody freezing! bought some stinky cheese and a lush bracelet for my niece to be!

Sounds great fun...I saw something once on the news about men chasing cheese down a hill tho that must be somewhere else lol x
CommentAuthorauntiewoo
