Wedding Forum - Old Prop Warehouse...

On a couple of episodes of DTTB I've seen barns/warehouses that sell old props - everything from coconut shy's to vintage candelabras. I've had a look in antique shops, auctions and second hand stores but I can't find a place similar.

Does anybody know what I would look for to find a similar place on the internet.

Lol, that's exactly what I want!!

There's just nothing near me, I hate being stuck in the middle of a nowhere county!

yeah small theatres usually have a whole storage room full of props and costumes - when i was doing a levels we askes our local theatre (it was a tiny place) if we could use them and they booked a time for us to go down to the store. i think some theatres also have links to professional fancy dress companies so they might maybe have props in too??

failing that - get up early and go carbooting when they start again - old candleabras and candle sticks are often at the one tht we have been to near the newforest!!

good luck hun x

I'm waiting for better weather to go carbooting with my grandad!

I shall ask around some of the local theatre groups too.

Still want to know where the place hey use is though, it look really coo!!

Have you tried browsing wedding blogs? They always give details of vendors.

I'll put a few links on your wall which you might like

Cheers, having a nosy now, There's a could of american blogs that I like too, but not much use for this purpose. I've popped a post on your wall too - cute little cake topper.

In terms of coconut shy ask your local schools/churches as they tend to have that sort of thing at their local fetes etc too xx

I'd be bored all day. Would do more housework probably :D
