Fellow Glasto goer needs help...

[sjhopewell]

Hello All,

Taking inspiration from something that StuH did last year, I am embarking on a project this year as a surprise for my (to be) wife on the big day. I am hoping that it will only take people 5 minutes to help me out.

Basically, I am after getting pictures from all over the world, with someone holding a sign featuring the message "Happy Wedding Day Stefan and Sarah from [insert place]", These will then be compiled as some sort of slideshow with a bit of soppy music, and shown as a surprise to her on the day. Hopefully it will grow into being something a bit special and quirky. I've got friends and family all ready to take pictures, but I really need the help and global reach of the Internet, so am hoping some of you can help. So if you live abroad, are going on holiday soon or just know someone else that lives overseas, I am hoping you can help. I have had a few offers already, thank you! Really appreciate it!

I guess it's just not limited to places around the world, anything with a unique twist would be great. Do you know a Z-list celebrity? Do you work in a job that is a bit unusual? Are you currently on the International Space Station?

I have just set up a twitter account (currently standing at 0 followers) that has a few examples so far and that I will keep updated as new pictures come in >> https://twitter.com/goglobalwedding . I would post a couple of them on here but I can't work out how to add photos.

Any willing helpers can send their photos to [email protected]

Thanks in advance to anyone that may help.

All the best, and let's see how many trolls this wakes up? :-)

I am holidaying in Australia at the moment so I'll see what I can do. Only got Perth left though - shame I didn't know this before Sydney (so many landmarks) or the Barrier Reef - thise would have been better, because Perth is just a beach really - but it is still the other side of the world!

Do you just want photos or would a video, just shouting the message from the beach be good?

Good luck - sounds a nice idea.

I'd be happy to help out with a photo from NYC.

Wait what wasn't this done before?

Just thought I would give this a friendly bump to get it back from the bottom of page 2, safe in the knowledge that next time it sinks into oblivion I will just leave it there... ;-)

Good luck!

I'll get a few of my cabin crew friends to get involved for you too.

@sjhopewell

As indicated before, I'll be going away in early February and will get a photo for you then. Don't give up bumping this thread. Come on people, even if you are not going away send him and his wife to be something from where you are now.

What if I am posting from the toilet?

[russycarps]

writing your message of goodwill on the wall in faeces, bobby sands style, would be a nice touch

[sjhopewell]

It would definitely be unique, not sure it will make the final cut but who knows?

And thanks Yoghurt on a Stick and Couchy. I've got a friend who works for the cabin crew at Virgin Atlantic who has got a sign with him taking it on his travels, hopefully this will deliver some good results.

I want to include one of Glastonbury in full flow...where do you think would give best view? Top of the Ribbon Tower? Overlooking the Pyramid Field as it starts to fill? Getting an annoying flag made up?

[marcwilson87]

Just sent you a PM with a shot of me in Cuba holding a piece of paper wishing you all the best for your wedding.

Come on folks. This things barely got off the ground. I'm sure we can come up with more.

[sjhopewell]

Thanks Yoghurt on a Stick, really appreciate it. And thank you for the other forum readers who sent pictures from Austria and Peru.

It is getting there slowly but surely, but anyone that can still help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Stefan

This felt worthy of a bump back up to the first page. I've no big trips planned but I'm sure some of you must.
