I was enjoying the first page of that thread. Computer glitched and now it's gone - only got to page 1, did something happen for it to be deleted?

The luxury wedding one? I just went back to it as I was on it a few minutes ago and there's now an error message.

caperplips · 29/08/2019 16:00

yes that's the one. I can't find it at all.
I was really enjoying the fantasy of a budgetless event in London

Removed for being a troll I guess!

LochJessMonster · 29/08/2019 16:02

It was obviously a troll.

If you are spending 2 million on a wedding you would obviously arrive by helicopter not Bentley..

caperplips · 29/08/2019 16:04

oh but it wasn't a harmful troll. I really wanted to read about incredible hotels and menus etc - what a shame

I'd parachute in. Or be carried in in some kind of carriage by a load of minions (not the yellow sort, obvs. Far too tacky Wink )

Lowcarblady · 29/08/2019 16:07

I hope OP hires him as the wedding singer.

Damn it, that one was amusing :(

DPotter · 29/08/2019 16:11

There was an episode of 'Don't tell the Bride' where she arrived by paracute - she was not impressed.....

Livebythecoast · 29/08/2019 16:12

I was just wondering that! Got to page 2 , a strange message came up and now it's gone and I so wanted to comment!
Maybe it was a troll? Surely nobody posts all that and expects MN to come up with a price?!.

caperplips · 29/08/2019 16:12

I would FAR rather arrive by Bentley than helicopter!!
I am daydreaming what my diamonds / rings would look like..

I was wondering if the main course at the meal would be Shepard's Pie or possibly spag bol.

Stonerosie67 · 29/08/2019 16:27

Oh come on Miss it's got to be bangers and mash....get classy, girl!! 😂😂

Alsohuman · 29/08/2019 16:28

That was a brilliant thread. I wanted to see the £70k wedding ring.

AtillatheHun · 29/08/2019 16:28

I knew a girl who arrived (at Claridges) by horse and carriage. Through mayfair. Lasted nearly two years (the marriage).

Nah, the only place you can land a helicopter in London is a pad on an industrial estate in Battersea
No glamour in that, unfortunately

barearsedloverofthigh · 29/08/2019 16:29

Hmm I've just spent time writing this rather marvellous reply so (original thread) OP, if you' reading this and you're still serious about this wedding, I can offer everything on your list for half the price any of this lot are coming up with.
Proper big castle with moat and inflatables.
Moist, fetid sleeping quarters to accommodate a hundred+ guests (with night snacks).
Never seen anything like it, one of a kind bridal gown easily transformed into evening wear with stickers and glitter. It looks good, it feels great and you can pee without having to even lift it up
There'll be a satisfying sit down meal of freshly harvested organs and a giant marrow with a novelty face drawn on it. And, an Arse cream van parked outside selling arse cream cones with 'chocolate flakes' and 'sprinkles' to make you look hip and trendy!
Cake, I'm thinking this kind of thing. You want them all to know how stinking rich you are right?!: www.123rf.com/photo_127393244_wedding-cake-made-of-money-treasure-chest.html
I know a woman who knows a woman who can get her hands on a quality tiara with all the bling, no questions asked. Especially not by you. As in 'hold on, that looks suspiciously like my family heirloom tiara!'
Bentleys are so cliché and hard to twoc so I think a few aldi trolleys pulled by a tiny dog, a black cat, a poodle, a dachshund, a flat coat, a couple of borders, Geoff and a tortoise (did I forget anyone?) will be right on trend. I think PewDiePie and Marzia Bisognin arrived at their recent wedding on a tea trolley pulled by his childhood guinie pig and a rescued battery hen.
Entertainment will be provided by the world famous farts and whistles orchestra (for this we'll need a fresh supply of figs so I'm sorry but guests will not be permitted to bring any squirrels into the castle grounds).
The vails on the bride and bridesmaids outtafits will be opaque and are recommended to be worn all day and night so no need for hair and makeup. I'm presuming you're marrying a real bloke so he won't be needing any of that nonsense either.
As soon as the service is over and the paperwork signed, the groom will be despatched swiftly and with minimal blood spurts, so that insurance can be claimed.
All in £100k
ps. ditch the photo booth, it'll make the whole thing look cheap

You Brits do seem to go all out for a wedding meal. Grin

CoolcoolcoolcoolcoolNoDoubt · 29/08/2019 16:46

I too wished to see the £70,000 wedding ring. sniff

HeffaLump1 · 29/08/2019 16:50

Was wondering the same and about the "calling out the neighbours and being banned from local FB group" one. Leave for 5 mins and these threads go pfft!

LadyCarolinePooterVonThigh · 29/08/2019 17:04

Bare with you as wedding planner success is guaranteed!

DanglyTasselsOfThigh · 29/08/2019 17:22

Excellent Bare I seriously want this plan for my wedding now, but you did miss my Triangle, the angel fish, who would love to pull the Aldi trolleys with the other pets!

bamboocat · 29/08/2019 17:27

Oh poo. I seem to have missed a goodun.

HairyDogsOfThigh · 29/08/2019 17:37

You really have thought of everything Bare. What a superb service you're offering.
