Let's talk beer...
Brooke in Planning, on October 4, 2016 at 8:43 PM

We are having beer, wine and two signature drinks. For beer, the alcohol supplier recommended a seasonal (Sam Adams ocktoberfest), Amstel light and Stella Artois. FMIL thinks "no one" will drink the...

Best place to buy booze?
Brooke in Planning, on September 24, 2016 at 7:08 PM

Sorry if this was discussed recently but I'm on mobile. For brides who had to bring in their own alcohol did you find that local stores were a better deal than say BJ's or Costco? Trying to figure out...

Readings
Brooke in Planning, on September 21, 2016 at 2:22 PM

I have 2 non-religious readings included in our ceremony. The officiant is introducing the people doing the readings, do they also say what the reading is from? Or do the people doing the readings say...

Seating charts
Brooke in Planning, on September 18, 2016 at 5:57 PM

I just wanna throw mine out the window if FMIL suggests one more change....but I digress... For those who had theirs printed "poster" style (we don't want to do individual place cards), how did you...

Rsvp due 9/7
Brooke in Planning, on September 11, 2016 at 2:36 PM

Our final head count is due no later than 9/23...we can increase if need be after that time ... We are missing more than half the rsvps. I know that this is common (although no less frustrating) but...

Rehearsal dinner dresses! Let's see em!
Brooke in Wedding Attire, on September 8, 2016 at 5:42 PM

Just got my rehearsal dinner dress in - it needs to be steamed and I need to take the cups out I think (they are making a weird line). Add some sexy hair and cute pumps and I'll be ready!

Ribbon wands - buy or make?
Brooke in Do It Yourself, on September 2, 2016 at 8:55 PM

Anyone make their own ribbon wands? Was it a giant pain in the ass? Should I just buy them? I can get 100 on etsy for like 75 bucks but that seems like a giant waste of money for ribbon on a stick. At...

I'm not a bartender...
Brooke in Planning, on August 23, 2016 at 9:22 AM

Soooo we are doing beer and wine but I want to provide liquor without having a fully stocked bar so we were thinking of doing 3 signature drinks with minimal ingredients: 1) how do we plan on how much...

Paging Celia - parents blessing
Brooke in Planning, on August 19, 2016 at 11:10 PM

Hey Celia! Once you posted a sample script that you use for ceremony where instead of giving away the bride there is a family blessing of sorts? I took a screenshot way back when but now I can't find...

Accessories for BM dress?
Brooke in Wedding Attire, on August 17, 2016 at 10:14 PM

I want to get my gals a gift of jewelry for the day of the wedding but their dress is a little tricky...it's a soft gold (see pic) so I worry that getting yellow gold would be too harsh, but silver or...

Wedding invites are here!!
Brooke in Planning, on June 4, 2016 at 8:36 PM

I just had to tell someone...it's going to take a ton of willpower not to send them out like, now. My dress also came in this weekend. 3 weeks early! Is it October yet??

She keeps buying me stuff...
Brooke in Etiquette and Advice, on June 5, 2016 at 6:17 PM

FMIL keeps getting me stuff for the wedding and then seems put out by the fact that I already purchased things that I need. Example, she was pretty annoyed that I had purchased my own toasting glasses...

Brooke in Etiquette and Advice, on May 21, 2016 at 1:28 PM

Sooooo we were going to book with an invitations vendor and then figured wedding paper divas , with their current sale, is way better and more affordable. Anywho, FH and I picked a design etc but...

MOH backed out...very hurt :(
Brooke in Etiquette and Advice, on March 10, 2016 at 5:27 PM

Nothing really to advise on, just sharing that my "best friend" of 14 years is not only backing out of the wedding but she's not even coming. She said she can't afford it because she's taking a...

Addressing STDs to multiple people in same house?
Brooke in Etiquette and Advice, on March 16, 2016 at 3:53 PM

I'm sure this has been answered nineteen thousand times, but when addressing to say, 6 roommates living int he same house do they each get their own STD? What about invitation? It seems weird to send...
