  • Newbie's Grapevine Wedding

    Okay... after reading the holiday thread and Newbie mentioning the impending wedding that we won't all sadly be able to get to I thought it'd be a fab idea if she had a virtual one on here if she's up to it?

    I figure amoungst all us Grapes here we have all the skills needed to make this wedding happen, so who's up for it?

    To start with I can make cards (though I expect there are many others here who are much better than me, so any other offers?), I can also do wedding balloons so let us know what you'd like in that department Newbie, and I'd be mighty surprised if no-one here can flower arrange. I'm okay, but again, there must be others much better than me.

    I can't make cakes (see 'nana bread thread where I thought it would be okay to substitute natural yougurt for Munch Bunch) and I'm not very well versed at the wine and beer making

    So any vicars, cake makers, cooks, beer and wine makers, DJ, waitresses, fancy car owners etc willing offer offer their virtual services?

    Of course Newbie, you need to let us know what to make too... it's your wedding, can we persuade you to an Alice style dress and head dress from Vicar of Dibley?

          Ha!!!
          Great idea Shortie!!!

          Newbie....we all want to be involved with your wedding , so you can have an 'alternative' one here on the Vine....should be great fun...when is the set date???? Bit of a practice one you see......

          I'm pretty good with pasta necklaces- for the bridesmaids of course

          But lets see....you'll be needing a hen party first though ....




          Sarzwick....what a lovely cake!!!

                  Nice Nicos ?

                  What a lovely idea Shortie

                  I can help with the wine but we'd better get our skates on otherwise it won't be ready in time - I do have 6 bottles of "vintage"? Blackberry and Elderberry - can anyone make something fizzy for the toasts ?

                    Ohhh, ohhh, can I help too?? Errm fizzy toasts .... I can do a 'real' lemonade but its flat. Now - where are we going for the hen party?
                    Life may not be the party we hoped for but since we're here we might as well dance

                        I'm not very artistically inclined or good at making things really (nice cake sarzwix), but I could get p*ssed at the wedding reception and cause a scene?
