cups and saucers

[DEMPSEY]

Not a beer thing,but SWMBO is looking for old porcelain cups and saucers,the ugly types,rose patterns on them,gold rims,that sort of type. She is helping to plan her niece's wedding and so looking to get approx 250 or more.

Is she marrying a greek?

[Will_D]

Wot? All of the same design or just random

Ps: Like th eGreek ref.

[DEMPSEY]

All random,appartently its a bit on a fashion to serve tea and coffee to the guests arriving at the hotel venue.

[Will_D]

Err yes?! I can see this but when we have (hugely successful, posh, lucrative weddings in the Rugby Club) weddings WE supply the cups!!!

This is not a BYO type do is it??

[DEMPSEY]

That's what I thought,but it seems that she does not want the bog standard cups,but wants to serve tea and coffee in old style cups.

[Ciderhead]

Avoca were selling exactly that style before christmas but jeez expensive
Its car boot sales she wants

[Padraic]

It she sources the cups she'll be able to rent them to others for their weddings as well! The one thing I learned when I got married was that you can charge $$$ if you put the word wedding in front of something!

[Greg2013]

Did you learn that before or after you got married Padraic ? LOL
