    I have Danni, one today and one in the past and both were from MODS lol!

    I didn't take huge offence so didn't think it was worth mentioning to anyone else...

    I haven't seen anyone say that BBB should be kept quiet though SS? I think everyone's voiced their opinions about budgets and even though I am NOT a BBB, I don't think you should be ashamed of your budget...but you have to be aware that there are people on here who will be offended (and maybe a little jealous) about those on bigger budgets...that doesn't mean you shouldn't give opinions about bargains and saving money coz you've had some great ideas (for me anyway) - My idea of this site is where people can swop ideas and get helpful advice and hints on how to plan th wedding of THEIR dreams with the money the have!

    Danni, I have been nothing but civil.

    What is there to feel offended by in other people's budgets? That's what I don't get.

    Danni, with the comment about people being offended I was responding directly to a comment in SiJen's post directly above my own.

    Sooo,

    What's the next thing everyone has to book?

    Mine is the videography (who is almost sorted).

    Then I need to sort my dress (I tried some on today - loved 2 of them).

    Then H2B's suit.

    Anyone else?

    Ooh, who are you booking for videography? I found that the most difficult thing to choose so far.

    Which dresses did you like?

    i honestly think opening a new thread with a different name would be better because the name of this one is and has caused agro. I dont care wat other peoples budgets are so dont think im against what your trying to say hun. i just dont think you've gone about the right way doing it. should have just opened a thread up for bbb and that is it no digs at anyone from the past or present.

    Tinsel, I know a videographer. He is brilliant, his work is always fab BUT he's in the South West. Not sure where you are and I'm too lazy to click and look! :-) I would use him myself but my OH has put his foot down and said I can have whatever I like, just not that! Spoil sport

    SS I was simply saying that some people CAN get upset when others are discussing things they cannot and maybe will not be able to afford - not that it should prevent you from discussing your wedding. Weddings are a stressful thing and there's always an air of secrecy surrounding money...don't worry about it.

    I think this thread has been taken WAY out of context and people are getting a little too frought about it.

    i agree thats why i think just re opening a new one would be a good idea it will be aimed at bbb's so shouldnt cause any agro.

    Oops, I went to make tea.

    Me, subtle Lisa? no...!

    I might go for the guy my photographer recommended as his work was really good and cheap-ish (£649) for everything we wanted.

    I agree Danni! Anyway - I'm taking my small budget and I'm sodding off to enjoy my vodka & tonic lol.... (just kidding folks!)

    Please don't stress about this! Just change the name to something without 'stigma' in the title!

    Love you all x

    A thread will have a natural ending, as do most things in life. Think it is a sad day for all of us as adults if we have to have something closed down as we cant have a reasoned discussion. 117 posts later say to me that this was relevant and appropriate. If I am not interested in something I just dont continue to give it life.

    :-(

    so what do BBB's want to talk about thats different to what the rest of us want to talk about, apart from bargains and saving money?? Why do you need your own section?
    Its like we have categories for girls trying to lose weight. But are there any categories for those who are NOT trying to lose weight? NOPE!

    I dont get it.

    i hiave not read all the comments here but personally i feel that we are all on some kind of budget, large, small, either way a wedding that costs £50,000 is going to be no better and no worse than a wedding costing £200. at the end of the day your wedding will be the best for you and wont be the best for anyone other than you and your new husband! we are all different, dif styles, tastes, situations and budgets but i can guarantee you wouldnt be happy with any old wedding... it would have to be personal to you!
