A close friend is trying to source wedding arches from a gemach in Glasgow, London or Manchester for her good friend's wedding in about 3 weeks' time. She's not managed to get a contact for Glasgow yet and the people she's spoken to in Manchester (where her parents live) and London (where she lives) have been reluctant to allow their arches to travel out of town.

The bride also keeps asking if she's managed to secure any, so the pressure is on! Please, please let me know if you can help to make her day! Also, if you have any low cost ideas for making fabulous arches, please let me know.

Thanks!

*dreamy sigh*
I always wanted to go there. I could listen to those accents for hours...

-- Sorry that was totally off-topic, I just had to get it off my chest. Very Happy

Buy some hoola hoops from Tesco and open them up. Wrap them with shiny ribbon. If you want to do balloons it is a bit harder but you can tie them on with ribbon. There is no gemach in Glasgow for such things. If you want 'shtick' then you can buy balloons and glitter and blow them on the day before you go to the chuppa.

And anyone who wants to come and visit us up here is welcome anytime!!! Shabbos went out last night at 11:30!!!!!!!

Try contacting a party planner in Glasgow and ask them if you can hire some (if cost is not an issue).

Making your own arches are easy - use hoola hoops and ribbons, feathers, anything you fancy. It is just time consuming.
PM me if you want to know exactly how I did it for my own wedding.
