Find a place you trust mate and stick with them until they retire.
I love my 'Subaru specialise' mechanic. Last time i went in there they knew me by name and i had a chat with one of the guys about selling the Lib and the new OBK. Feels good when they remember things like that. The guy even remembered that i had the 09 rims on the Lib!!!

[B4TT]

My mechanic comes to my house and services or repairs my cars on site. I never have to go to him.

Holy crap. I dont know what i was expecting but we just got a quote for flowers for the wedding. $1,061.10 - and that is wholesale prices and arranging them ourselves... I need to get into the wedding industry.

[B4TT]

Easy solution - don't have flowers people spend far to much on weddings, such a waste of money that could be better spent on other things

Tell them it's not for a wedding it's for a *cough* big party and watch the price come down.

Ous cost about $6-7 from memory (almost ten years ago).

Lunch with 80 of our closest friends then partied on at the hotel in the city.
Biggest cost the the photographer, who fcuked thing up. So bad we never bothered getting the pics!

We found it was easy to get trapped into thinking 'you need this' way of thinking.

Think smart not big.

Either way Morgs, it will be the best day of you life. Enjoy it as it will go in the blink of an eye.

Cheers Jase
Trying our best to 'think smart'
So far we seem to be doing ok. Everything has been under budget so far so being the first real surprise, im sure it will be ok!

According to my brilliant ipod app, there is 133 days, 10 hours, 56 mins and 7, 6, 5 seconds until the big day!
