Facepalm
CBW in Etiquette and Advice, on April 11, 2017 at 9:09 PM

Not really a question, but more looking for sympathy or similar "I screwed up" stories so I can feel better! When I first started putting together our guest list on WW, I put in "placeholders" for...

USPS Vent
CBW in Planning, on April 4, 2017 at 5:11 PM

Has anyone else had some of their invites take FOREVER to reach their destination? I mailed all of my invitations at the same time- three weeks ago today. Most guests are within a 60 mile radius,...

Looking for some advice regarding place settings. I'm having a backyard wedding with a buffet-style BBQ dinner. We are using disposable plates, utensils, etc., and not having a champagne toast (open...

FSMIL?? Eye roll
CBW in Community Conversations, on March 30, 2017 at 11:23 AM

What do you call FFILs new wife? FSMIL? She is the only source of stress/drama/entertainment in our wedding so we can't really complain, but... FSMIL is very rich, and clearly out of touch with the...

Help me choose a cookie favor!
CBW in Community Conversations, on March 28, 2017 at 5:47 PM

Our JP just happens to also make unbelievable decorated cookies (Frosted shortbread). I've asked her to make our wedding favors, but I'm having trouble deciding on a design! I was originally thinking...

Thank you's for early gifts
CBW in Etiquette and Advice, on March 28, 2017 at 3:25 PM

I had planned to make custom Thank you cards using a wedding photo, but obviously that can't happen until after the wedding. We sent out invites 2 weeks ago and have already received our first gifts....

Numbering tables
CBW in Planning, on March 21, 2017 at 5:45 PM

Reading some posts about assigning seats, I started thinking about our tables. We are planning to use rectangular 8' tables rather than round (backyard wedding, and the longer tables allow us to fit...

CBW in Etiquette and Advice, on March 20, 2017 at 9:25 AM

Last spring/summer FH and I received a Save The Date from one of his friends, for a wedding that fall. A couple months before the wedding, we were all informed (via group text), that they had decided...

Where to get ready for a backyard wedding?
CBW in Etiquette and Advice, on March 16, 2017 at 12:00 PM

My ceremony and reception will be in my back yard. I had planned all along on the bridal party getting ready in the house. As we start thinking more and more about details, I suddenly realized that 2...

WW guest list question
CBW in Planning, on March 13, 2017 at 7:02 PM

This may seem silly, but is there a glitch with the WW guest list? How do I go about checking off that invitations were sent on the "overview" list? When I try to click on the individual circles,...

Send invitations early?
CBW in Etiquette and Advice, on March 11, 2017 at 8:40 PM

I decided to buckle down yesterday and I finished addressing our invites. We were planning to mail them out the end of this month or beginning of April. Today a friend asked me when the date was, and...

What size card box?
CBW in Planning, on March 6, 2017 at 10:03 AM

I'm planning to make a card box out of a pet carrier. We are expecting about 240 guests (100 families). How big a box do I need? Is there a calculator available somewhere for this? The small size pet...

Centerpiece opinions...
CBW in Do It Yourself, on February 27, 2017 at 12:04 PM

Okay... this is my very first mock-up of my centerpieces. I will have lanterns in various sizes- this is the biggest one. Clearly this needs more... but what? I will likely paint the lanterns, and...

Best Man vent...
CBW in Etiquette and Advice, on February 28, 2017 at 8:10 PM

Not sure if I'm looking for advice or just need to vent- some of this I've mentioned before. In a nutshell, BM has PTSD, which apparently means that he is allowed to blurt whatever pops into his...

Another invite addressing question
CBW in Etiquette and Advice, on February 24, 2017 at 2:20 AM

Funny how reviewing your guest list before addressing envelopes keeps turning up confusing situations! A little background- FH is a karate instructor. Many of our invited guests are his long-time...

"and guest"?
CBW in Planning, on February 23, 2017 at 12:07 PM

Hi all! Do I add a plus one for invitees that we know are single and not dating anyone? I'm including "and guest" for everyone that we know is married or in a moderately serious relationship, but we...
