Wedding Forum - What table names are you having?...

It's a nice idea. Famous quotes in general or by famous people?

I like

on a planet that insists
that love is like falling
and falling is like this"

in the differences between us
and I know there is comfort

Your life will not go un-witnessed because I will be your witness.'" -Shall We Dance?

I started looking for you, not knowing
how blind that was.

Sherman, forty-two… forty-two… I remember it, I do. It's there, I know it is, because when I look at you, I can feel it. And-and I look at you, and I… and I'm home. Please… I don't want that to go away. I don't want to forget." -Finding Nemo

Love this thread btw x

The other ones that i am having are; Audrey Hepburn for the TT, Fred Astaire, Humphrey Bogart, Bette Davis, Grace Kelly, Burt Lancaster, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe & Shirley Temple.

Why don't you call it old Hollywood glam (without the 50s) then you have no silly pedantics like me thinking that Bette Davis is a star of the 30s. Or 40s? 30s wasn't it? Now I have a catchy tune in my ear by the way :-)

One of Bette Davis' most famous leading role was the 50's - All about eve where she played Margo Channing.... she was voted #2 50's hollywood star, but i guess different people have different preferences.

antonia is your dress in the same sort of style as your theme??? and yep, new to this is but this group brainstorming is awesome xx

fairy-cakes my dress is going to be kind of a grace kelly style dress, lacey. Ive looked at the big hollywood dreams dresses but im not a fan and they wouldnt suit me x

aww sounds awesome, love the idea of the old school tattoos put in there as well, im the same very giddy, i have a million and 1 ideas running around my head like pick me pick me! lol x

Antonia where are you based? There's a vintage wedding fair coming up soon in my area.

Kate Middleton has hopefully inspired many Grace Kelly dresses. Princess Margaret had a very similar dress too - I actually like hers the best out of all 3.

we naming our tables after man utd players since its at old trafford. the top table will be the manager sir alex ferguson and the other tables will be "his players" lol we're hopefully having a carvery instead of 3 course meal so we're gunna call that "The Sir Busby Carvery" omg im so excited already! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa x
