    Buddy wanted to go with a Fr Ted theme, locations such as Craggy island for the top table and so on...

    Mrs put a halt to it when she heard that he was planning on putting her elderly relatives at the St Clabberts aka Jurassic Park table and a gang of her single friends were being seated at Ireland's largest lingerie dept!!

    Why not use farm jobs

    Saving hay table
    Squeezing the bull table (might suit a table of single ladies)
    Calving down table (young recently married couples?)
    Cutting silage Table
    Foddering Cattle
    Spreading Dung table (put a couple of spoofers on the table)
    Counting Cattle Table
    Mucking out shed Table
    Scraping the yard Table
    Stack Bales
    Fencing Table
    Saving Turf

    etc etc

    etc etc

    CAP?

    Names of cows is nice - a mix of farm animals, and tools/machines!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,301 ✭✭✭A cow called Daisy


    How about going with your tractor/machinery theme but add a prefix or suffix for those guests 'that just don't understand'
    Examples that come to mind are

    Redrock Mountain
    Abbey Valley
    Class Act
    Deere Field
    Lely Lillies
    Amazon(ian) Rainforest

    Maybe put a bit more thought into it than I did.
    Anyway best wishes to you and your intended and many many years of health, wealth and happiness.

    Posters has lots of ideas for table names but doesn't say much for British beef. Half those breeds I associate with dairy more than beef.

    For table names you could probably personalise it a bit. All your fields probably have names. You probably have a tractor now and there's probably some old ones you have fond memories of.
    Just be careful not to have the fat heifer table or something although any single lads might like to be at the stallion table.

    was at a wedding a little over a year ago , bride and groom arrived in a tractor and afterwards drove up and down the village in it , played up to every stereotype you can name about farmers

    thats fine now and again but for a wedding , i think its just embarrassing

    I was at a wedding not so long ago where the tables were all breeds of cows. Seemed to go down well people got a bit of craic out of it. No one that I know of was offended either.

    Use the codes of ai bulls, they'll have fun googling on their iphones between courses.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
