50Our wedding colors are ivory, navy blue and taupe-blush (quicksand rose to be exact). I don't know squat about tuxedos or menswear. Our wedding is black tie optional so all men in the party need to...
Loving how simple and formal they are! Only regret - because we were pressed for time - was not ordering a sample because I wish the words “wedding” and “rsvp” were shinier that the other text.
...and our wedding is 85 days away. Is that bad? We just got our wedding website up, and order invitations (which will be sent out in the next two weeks). Our problem is deciding between the typical...
Hello, I am aiming for a classic, timeless look. Below is my dress (it's ivory with white lace). What accessories would you add? What type and color shoe would you select?
Hello, I writing to get some ideas about where to host rehearsal dinner and welcome drinks in DC. We're getting married in Georgetown, our reception will be in Woodley Park and our hope is to have...
Hello, I like to support independent business as much as possible. Can anyone recommend local companies that offer tuxedo rentals in NoVA or DC area?
I need help. FH and I don't know a thing about tuxedos. Our September wedding is traditional (Catholic ceremony, I'm wearing a timeless lace and satin ivory dress), the black-tie optional reception...
Our venue requires us to differentiate escort cards so waiters can identify who selected which entree (beef, chicken, scallops). Our wedding theme is traditional and formal (black tie optional). Do...
WeddingWire needs a forum section for celebratory posts. Today, I sent a deposit to secure our DJ, which was our final vendor to secure...you know, four and a half months out. It's been a long haul...
What are you doing about events over your wedding weekend? Are you having welcome drinks and going-away brunch? 95% of my guests are from OOT and I think welcome drinks make sense, but I'm not sure...
I tried my dress on today and I like it - it mostly fits too which is great. I'll need some minor alterations along the hem, at the shoulders and replacing the satin bow with a plain piece of fabric...
My wedding colors are navy and ivory with a touch of blush-taupe and greenery (in the centerpieces and bouquets). Me and my dress below - it'll be an ivory skirt with bright white lace - do you think...
I'm having my wedding reception in the ballroom below. Would anyone be willing to provide me with design ideas? I'm looking for something classic, simple, traditional with a little uniqueness. Thanks!...
Good news first - my dress arrived today (one month earlier than expected)! Bad news - I'm feeling very anxious about trying it on. I thought I had another month to prepare and focus on losing a tiny...
I am not a fussy person, I don't enjoy being the center of attention and I don't enjoy showers whatsoever. I've been to a few over the years and it all makes me oddly uncomfortable - especially...
I'm on the fence about boudoir photos. It could be a fun wedding gift for FH but I'm not sure it's worth it. Any thoughts out there? Are you having pictures taken? Is it worth the cost of photos and...
Hello, I've decided that when it comes time to write thank you notes I want to write them in calligraphy (myself). Thank you notes are obviously necessary and I think calligraphy would add a nice...
Hello, Any brides out there getting married in a Catholic or church ceremony? Can you explain to me exactly what the maid of honor is supposed to do at the ceremony? Walk up the aisle and then what?...
Is anyone willing to walk me through how they created a budget without knowing exactly how much everything will cost? I'm in DC (one of the more expensive markets, sadly) and our all-inclusive venue...
I got my dress yesterday. It’ll be just like the pics except brighter ivory and white. I’m terrible at styling and need advice. I’m going for a simple, timeless and classic look. My makeup will be as...
