Default Horse & Carriage is booked! Woo hoo!!!!

We have BOOKED our horse & carriage

I am so so happy!

I will post a photo once I am able to download one from the company - their site is down at the moment.

The voices from Groovy told us to book it.. and we DID!!!!

Yipee!

The horse we will be using is Rosie and she is a stunner!

I'm not at all jealous ... I always wanted a horse & carriage but could never justify the expense plus I went for a civil do the second time so didn't need any transport whatsoever.

I hope that my child, looking back on today
Will remember a mother who had time to play;
Because children grow up while you're not looking,
There are years ahead for cleaning and cooking.
So, quiet now cobwebs go to sleep.
I'm nursing my baby, and babies don't keep.

I love that grumble icon.. always makes me titter!!!!

Do you know, we've gotten the horse & carriage for £425 and we have found a Merc for the BM's at around £100...

Previously we were quoted nearly £500 for a Beauford and a car for the BM's... so really we haven't gone over...

Happy! Happy!

And don't forget to give some to the horse rather than munch through them all yourself

great news karen,

i really wanted a horse & carriage for our wedding but unfortunatly the horse wouldnt have managed the very very steep hill to get to the church so we ended up with a beauford.

cant wait to see pics youll be looking dapper on the way to lumley castle !

love
claire

Hehe, a gold bucket for the horse poo....you should tell Jonathan that you have to save it as a memento and feed roses in your garden with it...and they can be your special wedding day roses hehe, I think I would fall for that even if jack said it, might even find it romantic :-)

Horse and Carriages are SO Pride and Prejudice

When's your dress trying on? Is it soon?
