trophyshy 7083 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Father of the bride was there so it was not all that juicy, big house in the country close to 2 pubs and a brewery, bit of clay pigeon shooting, some late night poker, BBQs and tonnes of booze. The worst we did to the groom was make him down a warm wine glass full of Aftershock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaMoUsE 0 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Stupidly mentioned the idea of getting a Caricature to draw pictures of the guests as favours for the wedding, been quoted 400 quid by a few local ones i found via google. Thats 400 quid for 2 and a half hours work, surely seems a bit much? I mean thats a canny hourly wage for someone who's outlay consists of a pen and paper... Anyone know any or has had any experience of going to a wedding when its been done before? Could be be a very expensive and shite idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30616 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 As I'm sure you've noticed, if you mention that anything is related to a wedding the price seems to go through the roof. Also, bear in mind how much time the guy is going to have to do the caricatures, is it going to be after the meal? Because there isn't much time before. And if it is for the full 2.5 hours then how many is he going to get time to do? How long does it take to complete one? 20 mins? Are people going to want to sit still for 20 minutes at a wedding. It's not a bad but one of those that I would categorise as an unnecessary expense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWalrus 0 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 http://www.pauljamesband.co.uk/ These are canny. Proper 6 piece swing / jazz band but they'll happily and ably play rock / pop / whatever you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaMoUsE 0 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Pretty much stretched as far as i can already go, so a band is out of the equation. Just got quoted £800 for a dj?! I was going to do a playlist myself aswell so that seems like an obscene amount of money. I was thinking £300 is probably more reasonable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This lad charged us £250 http://www.fx-entertainments.co.uk/ https://www.facebook.com/fxentertainment Nowt special, but which wedding DJs are? He knocked out the pop and the cheese as you'd expect. He provided some canny room lighting for the night at that price too. Not just them 4 lights on the podium like Ray Von. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
