I’m currently in the middle of organising my wedding (well i say organising, its more like taking a back seat!!) and the future missus has let me name the tables after famous planes. Obviously the head table will be spitfire, but what other names should i use?
And before anyone asks, she’s not a Thai ladyboy and i didn’t buy her from the deepest part of Russia….:diablo:

I have friends who had an airshow for their wedding, with waiver & all.
The food was: hamburgers, hotdogs, and paper plates ! 😀

i think realistically we could have a flypast but i don’t know what sort of cost it would be compared to a full display? Mind you i’m spending more money on this wedding than pete doherty does on heroin!!

Funnily enough I sorted a flypast out for a friends wedding at Elvington last month – Taff Smith and Geoff Kline from the Real Aeroplane Co at Breighton provided a marvellous flypast by their Maggie – its a fab wedding present but make sure your timing is spot on (always go later than planned, or even better take a hand held to call the pilot in when you’re ready)

The kids *in training* can be sat at the Chipmunk or Harvard table.
…maybe something with a *Bristols* theme for the bridemaids?
& have the wedding ceremony conducted by Merlin 😉
I would have thought the parents would be better sat at the Chipmunk table, the aircraft is very well loved and it would make both sets of in-laws feel privilileged to be compared to such an aircraft.

cheers guys for your input!!
I contacted Peter Teichman about displaying one of his warbirds and what a true gentleman!! he really tried putting himself out to see what he could do, but because its being held in Hornchurch, its too populated. i was really chuffed he personally answered me e-mail, what a really nice guy.
I’ve noticed in the new flypast that someone has nicked his moustache!! well i suppose it comes with being based at an essex aerodrome….:D

Im in the back seat too for a next april wedding. I did wonder how much TA 805 would cost for a little display but im sure it will cost many thousands. Although not too far from biggin to maidstone.

My best mate had P-51 ‘Susy’ (as she was then) display at his wedding reception. It was the coolest wedding present I have ever seen!

You must be keen, are you sure that the outlaws are happy with this?
When I got married it was difficult to agree anything I wanted, which in my case wasn’t exactly the ultimate scenario in the universe, the outlaws were set in their ways, ‘This is the way we get bloody married in Yorkshire’, end of story.
It may have been a pointer of things to come.
Just go along with it and hope you don’t have a disaster like we did at the end of the day, at least we were rescued by a former Halifax flight engineer.
My suggestion, if you have to go along this path, I reckon Brewster Buffalo for the outlaws aged aunts could be a bit of a hoot, not that they they would take the point.
All the best mate, I hope you have a great day.

The table would have better flying qualities than the aircraft it was named after.

Back on topic, How about
Henkiel 111’s for the Uncles
The old Hurricanes for the grandparents
Little wellingtons for the kids
Tempest and Typoon for the bridesmaids

Put the outlaws on the ‘Focker’s table’ 😀
Just kidding, nice idea…good luck with the big day!
By: Nashio966 - 1st June 2008 at 21:39
definitely lancaster!
who would you put on the mosquito table though :diablo:
By: Rich82 - 1st June 2008 at 21:35
Wedding Plane names
How about the bottom table being named after the Boulton Paul Defiant…?
It could be for those people who did something good for you once or twice, but then you’re not really sure why you kept them in your address book….
