    The total comes to £57.94.
    VAT is 20% so that equals £7.99.
    So it's £39.95 + £7.99 + £10 for postage xxx

    It looks great, and for that price its good as it includes the photo shoot.....But once the photo-shoot isnt free anymore and the £35 is added on would make it £75 and would probably be too much for a lot of people. I would pay £39.95 for it because of the photo-shoot, but I wouldn't pay £75.

    IT looks lovely but i don't think I would be able to justify buying one now. Maybe when I was first planning but now it's just a bit expensive for me. Particularly when you factor in what £50 could get you towards your actual wedding. Sorry. xx

    I think what they're saying Anne is that the photoshoot is free on the site at the moment, but they're gonna start charging for it, but if you buy the box you get it free.

    £57.94 seems alot! How much would it be for those of us who are already power users? I remember it being said before that we would get it at a discount price and would the vouchers be able to be used in Northern Ireland?

    I would probably buy one but like samantha has said what about us who have already paid to be a power user? I personally think its a cheek to include it as some of us have already paid or the privileges. I like the rest of the ideas though x

    Hi Ladies thanks for your feedback,

    We more than likely will be selling the items in the box in smaller bundles - ie: Wedding Ideas Magazine Pack. Keepsake Box Pack, Wedding Planner Pack etc (we'll sort the exact prices and bundles later). Perhaps you can tell us how to bundle it to smaller affordable chunks, for those who can't justify the spend or for those who don't need all of the stuff.

    We will include VAT in the advertised price (we are used to selling to businesses and they know to add VAT on). We will probably advertise it as £49.95 +P&P.

    Next week we will be adding the Wedding Box to the join pages to gauge a response!!!

    The balloons are for the engagement photoshoot so you can have a black and white image and red/pink balloons - looks cool. They just add a little fun to the pack.

    We think the box is amazing value and what a great start to planning a wedding and getting excited. Are there any other like this on the market? We haven't found one yet?

    Hi Georgie, the box is aimed at newbies to the site. I take on board your comments, but the site is always improving and changing, we really don't want to stand still and not improve. You will be able to but parts of the box and we are happy to split into bundles so long as the 'mini bundles' all add up to the £49.95 (+p&p).

    I would like a pack that had the following:

    UKBRIDE PEN - Value Priceless (£1.00)
    WEDDING GARTER - Value £8.50
    BAG FOR LIFE - VALUE £1.50
    SIXPENCE - £2.00
    STUNNING WEDDING PLANNER (a5) - Value £19.95
    Bubbly (20cl)and TWO Champagne glass Flutes in a presentation box (have a drink on us) - Value £15.00
    UKbirde's (A4) I DO WEDDING PLANNING MAGAZINE - £4.95
    Beautiful Keepsake Box - Value £25.95

    For £20 (including VAT) +P&P

    I would hope the P&P would be less than £10. I think £10 for P&P is quite a lot anyway. Is there a reason the P&P is that high? The standard P&P for most things you buy online is £3.95 for standard delivery regardless of the weight.

    If there were smaller bundles made, that would be cool.

    Though after a look at the list, I'd only be interested in;

    Garter (is it blue, or as pictured?)
    The A5 wedding planner (would A4 be still optional? and are there any images of these?)
    The bubby and glasses
    The sixpence

    Also, the p&p definately does seem abit much, I sent a massive parcel out the other day and it was just over a fiver

    Hang on a second, you said that it was £39.95+vat and now you are saying that including vat it would be £49.95
    if you actually calculate it it should only be £47.94 inc vat if base price is £39.95

    Think about it

    It does seem very expensive. I've done my engagement shoot and paid for power user subscription already so wouldn't need those. The voucher book sounds great tho! Any idea whAt vouchers would be included? Also there's a lot of mags in there and a lot of ppl said they weren't interested in those before? That would cut the weight down and therefore the packaging cost? Also what sort of discount were u thinking for power user? X

    well i like it but feel it now costs far more than i would afford.
    I was under the impression it was going to be a smaller box costing around £25.
    i am only spending £120 on my dress so to me i cant justify spending that much sorry

    I agree with Janie, I fully expected the price of the box to go down and size down a bit so it's affordable. I think realistically a few people will pay out for it but no where near as many is if the price is around £25.

    Hopefully there'll be a smaller box option to suit everyone soon.
