I feel stupid being excited about such an arbitrary threshold, but it's still great compared to where the count down started when I joined months ago!! I feel like I'm off to a good start: Venue...
I am like 90% sold on wearing my FMIL's wedding dress. It has lots of elements I really love, and FMIL gave me her blessing to have it altered if I choose to wear it. I'd want the ruffles on the back...
Has anyone worn a tulle petticoat/ hoop skirt under their princess/ ballgown? I read that you have to really practice how to sit and it sounds uncomfortable, but I love the look! Also I've seen some...
I've posted about this family situation before. I'll recap: FSIL is getting married next year in January, she got engaged the same weekend FH formally proposed to me. She and FH have a fairly distant...
Okay so FH and I are watching episode 12 as I type this. Gahhh. The angst. The emotions. I am not a crier but the end of episode 11 almost got me.
Is anyone else in the situation of introducing the families, and worried because they're VERY different? FH and I met and live 3 hours from my family and 5 hours from his family in the other...
Starting a couple of days after we got engaged, FH has talked about his good old friend Chuck who offered to DJ our wedding. I am generally anti "friendor" but FH insisted that said friend is a...
I've been looking at DIY decoration ideas. FH and I drink a fair amount of wine, and our wedding is so far away I could save a ridiculous number of bottles. I'm attaching some of my inspiration...
Looking for advice and examples on the Head Table at the reception, because none of the standard traditional, sweetheart, or family really fit our wedding. ETA: Our families are VERY different and we...
I know SO's of guests should be invited because they're a social unit, but does that include the boyfriend/girlfriend of the adolescent children of adult guests??
So our wedding has been penciled in on our churches calender for more than a month, but it couldn't be official until we met as a couple with the Rector (the head priest). We had that meeting this...
I am not doing a tiered wedding, I have just one guestlist. But I see posts of people who are very offended at finding out they were second tier, but shouldn't it be worse than not getting an invite...
Hell no... Straightforward wedding fraud??? http://www.uexpress.com/miss-manners/2017/2/5/0/heres-another-wrinkle-on-wedding-extortion
I can't find a lot of information on the vendors tab here or google to go on, almost everything that comes up is attached to a boutique to sell a dress, but I think I already have one! I have a dress,...
Background: I've met most of FH's family and we all get along well, but one of his sisters doesn't live near us, and doesn't live near his parents so I've never met her. From what FH says, they didn't...
For invitations, etiquette says adults each get their own invite (SO's together) even if they live in the same household, could just one STD be sent per household? Given they're less formal and...
On mobile; Couldn't Search. If you already live with your FS, what are your plans for right before the wedding?? We want to do the traditional superstitious thing of not seeing each other on the...
The boundaries of who I should invite is fuzzy and frustrating. I'm inviting all 1 degree relation extended family (uncles, aunts, cousins, grandparents) because I grew up close to some of my great...
With handwritten thank you cards, I know it's best to keep it personalized and say thank you for the gift of "handtowels, knives, xyz" but it seems weird to me to say "Thank you for...
I am having a May traditional church wedding with an afternoon reception in the church hall. We're planning on it being a laid back lunch beer and wine reception.
