Metallic ******** - Wedding Forum

Glasgow Girl · #1 (**permalink**) 11-06-2003, 02:59 PM

Does anyone know where I can get silver metallic ******** either in bulk or for a lot cheaper than some card shops are quoting me I have been quoted as much as £2.00 per bag and it seems as if it's only got about 10 bits of ******** per bag, If anyone can help me please as I now have 38 days till my wedding and this will just finish off my table decorations

Thanks

I got mine from ********......... (that unmentionable site) From what I can remember it wasn't that expensive & there was loads for the money!

We had "Just Married" & small silver hearts

I got the pink butterfly c.onfetti from, er, "the dark side" - you get loads in a bag about the same size as a pack of Maltesers... Mmm. Wouldn't reccommend trying to suck chocolate off them tho.

Have you tried woolworths? They do some (I think, dont quote me on it) and should be cheaper

There's also a 'site that cannot be named' shop in London.

Why not get their number and ask them to send you some bits up.

My friend Bev got all her favours from there and they were really good value.

Here's the unmentionable site: http://www.********.co.uk/shopping/n...ts.asp?cat=108

Their shipping is fast (slightly pricy at £3.99 though) and I was happy with the favour stuff they sent me

Bugger - even the link doesn't work? Just go to the c.o.n.f.etti site and head for the shopping link from the top. I think you do get a decent amount in the bags and if you give the shop a quick ring I'm sure they'll be happy to chat.

The link will work. just exchange the *s for the bad word...

Yup, replace the ******** with the WORD and it will take you through!

Shops like Hobbycraft sell it a bit cheaper than standard stores, if that helps.......

thanks to everyone who responded my mother went to a shop in Paisley today and managed to get six bags of silver stars for 99p per bag I then managed to get 2 bags of silver wedding bells also for 99p each which was great my mother is going back in on Monday to get another few bags for me which is great only 35 days to go now and I'm excited and nervous all at the same time, anyone else feel that way.

I'm getting married in 34 days in St Margaret's church in Newlands and then the reception is in Dalmeny Park Country House Hotel in Barrhead, I'm not getting married in Leeds because me and my fiance are both from Glasgow and we just thought it would be easier for 2 people to travel up than for 100 people to travel down south, how long till your wedding how are the other plans going, who is making your dress, have you got your bridesmaids dresses
