    Oh I figured that much. I'm not judging your friend, i'm sure they earn their money and are entitled to spend it however they choose... but it's not for me.

    They didn't pay for the majority and were very lucky. It was a lovely lovely day, but I am sure there were areas which could have been changed to reduce the price. To be fair the venue was half the problem...
    2009 - Manchester. 2010 - Dublin, Belfast, London, Berlin, Arras, Werchter. 2011 - PJ20 i & ii, Montreal, Toronto i & ii, Ottawa, Hamilton. 
    2012 - Manchester i & ii, Berlin i & ii, Stockholm. 2014 - Amsterdam i & ii, Trieste, Vienna, Berlin, Leeds, Milton Keynes.
    2016 - Boston Fenway i & ii, 2018 - Amsterdam i & ii, Pinkpop, London i & ii, Padova, Krakow, Barcelona, Seattle i & ii. 
  • Yep, that's two different ones... and I think they were both English :D one definitely was.

    In fairness, I wouldn't say they got the conveyor belt feeling... I just hope they were staying on a different town on the lake otherwise they may have got it :oops:

    I hope so too, for their sake.

    There's enough venues in this country that have a conveyor belt feeling... one wedding I went to, my friend (the bride) came face to face with another bride in the corridor and on her way our was told she couldn't use that particular exit because ANOTHER bride was having photos outside :shock:


    Yeh, my venue could well be like that :oops: :D although they may have said it's one a day. I don't really mind though, as long as it wouldn't hold me up much... but I think it would be cool to maybe bump into another one and get hammered together :mrgreen: ok, maybe not lol.

    I think there could be one more wedding happening on our day but that's it... like you say, it can't be helped and maybe we could get hammered together too :lol:
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    Nah, it'd be cool to meet one random stranger going through something like that on the same day as me :mrgreen: and if she's prettier and thinner I can always fuck off back into my own room and lock the door to stop everyone else from leaving :mrgreen:
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    As long as they were happy, everyone had a good day and it lived up to their expectations then who am I to judge? Alls good in the hood... I was just saying that it's not for me :mrgreen:

    I've heard of that being done too... pretty clever :mrgreen: although our venue covers a lot anyway so there wouldnt' be much to do... just the church. I WOULD like to get a loada flowers for the church... but it's ridiculous money :oops:

    Oh I'm having my niece sing at the ceremony too... she's already learned two songs. Although I might think of more and get her to do all of them. I don't really want hymns cos in my experience nobody sings and it always ends up sounding horrible and awkward and people looking at eachother and giggling :oops:

    Night girlies :D thanks for letting me invade your thread for a while
    On the bows, have a look for wired ribbon on the net, often they sell it just for weddings which will no doubt be more expensive...
