So, we've already bought real wine glasses and real silverwear for our hors d'oevres wedding reception, but I'm not sure about buying or renting real plates. They sell nice looking plastic ones with...

Hi Ladies, So today is the deadline for RSVPs for our Aug. 18 wedding. I called and emailed everyone, but only got ahold of one friend so far. How long should I wait before I cross them off the list?...

Does anyone else here feel like some demon is possessing them some days? Over-all, I've been reasonably easy-going and not stressing too much, but every now and again I feel like I just lose it!...

I'm so relieved to finally start taking dance classes with my FH so that we're prepared for our first dance! I've taken lots of dance classes for years, but no ballroom other than salsa, and my FH...

Question: What are you ladies doing to tone up or slim down for the big day? I've got two months to go and I'd like to just lose 4 pounds (but losing weight quickly is hard for me -- I mostly maintain...

As my wedding day draws closer, I'm having more and more emotional moments where I think of my mom (she died of cancer in 2004 when I was 24). Sometimes I'm really sad that she's not here to guide me...

Grrr! I repeatedly told her not to invite ladies from church who were not invited to the wedding, but she did it anyway! And the pastor was one of them!!! (my sister is marying us -- she used to be...

I know a lot of gals have vented about their MOH, but I guess I have too vent too. :-( I chose my MOH because I considered her my best friend, very outgoing and a great public speaker, she doesn't...

I find as the wedding draws nearer that I let every little thing someone says, or doesn't say, get to me. When I sent photos of my DIY wedding favors to my sister, dad, and bridesmaids and didn't get...

This weekend my FBIL and his fiance are getting married, but all signs point to a terrible wedding and marriage. They've been dating for 6 years, but I think they're just marrying because they're...

I'm not even telling my FH how many dresses I've bought for upcoming wedding parties. I got one for his brother's wedding (this weekend), one for my bridal shower (in two weeks), one for our rehearsal...

Today we had our first session with our pastor. We were both kinda nervous, and didn't know what to expect, but it was really nice! Mostly it was just comparing our feelings about ourselves and our...

The wedding's still over 2 months away, but we've been getting a steady flow of RSVPs, and today I finally saw that 2 of our BB&B registry items have been purchased for us!! How exciting! I wondered...

Goodness! It just won't quit with my FH's brother! He's getting married on June 9th, and his whole view of weddings and marriage is driving us nuts! 1) He's wearing his wedding ring already. His...

Oh my! Kinda funny and potentially awkward situation! My FMIL called me late last night because my FBIL is getting married in less than two weeks and he wants his FW to be on birth control, but they...

Hi ladies. I need advice on how to tell my FMIL that I bought a second dress for my wedding. She generously bought my ceremony dress for me, but it's strapless and kinda heavy, so I bought a second...

So ladies, when did you decide that your man was The One? My moment was when I called him at 12:30am because I saw the tail of a snake go under my bookcase. He drove an hour and a half to "save me"....

So I hear it's typical to send invitations between 6 and 8 weeks before the wedding, but with people making summer plans, is it so bad to send invitations a little earlier? My wonderful bridesmaids...
