Wedding Forum - Spanner in the works...

So last night we had our '6 week befor ethe day' talk with our wedding coordinator.
I initially planned to have paper pompoms hanging from the ceiling which she had said intially was fine, so naturally i went ahead and bought a shed load of pom poms only yesterday for her to tell me that they wouldnt be allowed to hang directly from the ceiling but the wooden beams across the room.
Normally it would be ok but the beams are quite low into the room so to hang pom poms from them would be rediculous as everybody would be stooping to avoid them. So she agreed to having them attatched to string or something and have them sort of hanging like bunting across the room...... Only problem is now that i have no idea how im going to do this.
I figure having pom poms on string would be pretty 'heavy' ? Do i use cotton or fishing wire? She wants me to unravel all the pom poms and have them attatched to the string before the day so her staff are not faffing with them....... How do i transport them without them getting crushed and tangled? Has anybody got any advice on how to hang and transport these now regrettable pom poms?

Im scraed of em geting crumpled and creased but a plastic bix might work.... Such a pain that shes asked me to attatch them all as now its just another thing for me to start freaking out about.where do i buy fishing line?

I'd try @m@z0n or maybe G0 0utd00rs if you have one near you x

Ive looked on @m@z0n but theres so many lengths and widths etc... I dont know how flimsy it is. Will it hold tissue paper?
I really wish she would have told me i may have had something else instead of the pompoms.

Good point. Ill buy a thick one anyway to be safe. Urgh.

I'd say you'd be fine with light weight stuff, and I'd buy more than you may need just so you know you've got enough and don't need to have a mad dash trying to sort it nearer the time.

Are the pom poms already in full bloom so to speak or are they flat packed and need to be puffed up etc? How were you planning on getting them to the venue anyway?

I think I would take advantage of having the venue the day before, at least that way you can get them put exactly where you want them and not have to leave it to the venue to decide

We've got Pom poms in our marquee and have attached them to a string with fishing wire as everything else we tried just made them slide down once we tied it to the ceiling x
