The above link goes to a story about a couple who had 23 bridesmaids. My sympathies to the wedding photographer(s)

I bet the best man was shattered afterwards!

They had a bouncy castle at their reception, say no more.

  Well &ugger me! Littleover Methodist Church. That's about 250 yards from my front door!
                        Would it be slanderous of me to say that the clue's in the word "Alvaston"

The couple, both from Alvaston, also had a bouncy castle and a fish and chip van at their reception.
Mr Brailsford said: "I got bored of normal weddings. ""

Just another example of whats gone wrong with this country. FFS, I would take her into care NOW and have her sterilised. They got bored with normal weddings  
They never turned down "normal wdding cake" by the looks of em

As I said, "The clues in the word" etc.

I'm just amazed that this is what passes for news on the BBC these days (interesting there are no pictures).

My official "record" for bridesmaids is 7 (on 7/7/7 - http://myweddingstory.co.uk/2007/07/michelle-and-mark-what-are-we-going-to-do-with-seven-bridesmaids/) - there were also 4 priests including one who had flown in from the Vatican.  One bride with a shockingly low 3 bridesmaids supplemented them with 14 extras who all wore pink in various shades (http://myweddingstory.co.uk/2009/07/ellie-and-ben-at-chilham-church/).

I've also had 7 groomsmen.  Twice.  Actually they were the same guys just a different one getting married.  (http://myweddingstory.co.uk/2009/04/caroline-and-rob-the-london-golf-club/ and http://myweddingstory.co.uk/2009/11/andrea-and-james-wedding-pictures-from-cooling-castle-barn/)  Oh and 3 best men too (http://myweddingstory.co.uk/2008/07/3-best-men-and-a-cheese-dragon-grant-malcolm-bloomfield-and-fiona-margaret-giles/).

But the chip van for wedding breakfast was very cool. (http://myweddingstory.co.uk/2009/06/tania-and-phil-chillin-at-the-beach/)
