We’re 30 days out and my poor MIL took a tumble and broke her leg. She’ll be ok in a few months but will have to be in a wheelchair for our wedding day. She’s feeling really down about it and self...

Did you actually want me to mail that thing back?
AlmostMrsSmith in Etiquette and Advice, on May 21, 2018 at 11:04 AM

We’ve got a lot of rsvps back with cute notes from guests... but also a lot of artitude. Some people are acting like such an inconvenience to have to check a box and put it in the stamped, addresses...

Pronovias dress is kind of sheer, not worth the $
AlmostMrsSmith in Wedding Attire, on May 7, 2018 at 8:47 PM

I got my Pronovias Racimo in crepe and I do love it but I’m having trouble with how sheer it is. Did anyone else have this problem? I assumed it would better lined and it’s disappointing

AlmostMrsSmith in Etiquette and Advice, on April 15, 2018 at 2:24 PM

So a very good friend of mine has this roommate, who I am friendly with but did not invite to my wedding. Reason #1 is I haven't seen or talked to her in at least a year, we were never super close...

Is a kid friendly wedding such a bad idea?
AlmostMrsSmith in Etiquette and Advice, on March 18, 2018 at 9:54 PM

Everyone who is important in my life has a 3 year old. My Niece is 3, my MOHs kid is 3 and I just can’t imagine excluding them from our wedding. We also have cousins and other important guests with...

Vistaprint fails!
AlmostMrsSmith in Planning, on April 6, 2018 at 9:49 AM

Invitations have been a surprisingly difficult task to pull off! First they sent my invitations on high gloss, but RSVP cards on linen. Then I waited for the reorder and they came all blurry! My FH...
