I've already done a search of the previous Azazie related posts. Our colors were supposed to be Navy and white w/ silver and gold accents. We wanted BM dresses to be Navy because we love that rich...

I got a coupon for a free photobook on Shutterfly, so FH and I thought we would use our photos from our 6 years together and make it into a guestbook. We've taken lots of trips together, had lots of...

I know bridesmaids and groomsmen only have to show up on time, in the right outfit. Is it out of bounds to ask one to give a short toast during the dinner? Does that count as an imposition?

There's a tradition in FH's family started by one of his cousins. For all family weddings, she compiles a cookbook based on recipes guests mail or email her. She asked FH for our guests' mailing...

FH and I are trying to figure out what to do for cake. Cake is the one thing our caterer doesn't provide, so we have to obtain it separately. They can slice and plate it, but will not move it, because...

FH's Oma (grandmother) has a close friend (Anna) who frequently travels with her because Oma can't travel alone. Anna has been Oma's guest at the other family weddings. She intends to bring Anna to...

I'm curious about where the idea/presumption that a bride's friends/bridesmaids are supposed to be her wedding helpers came from? I have to admit, the first time I was a bridesmaid, I thought I had to...

FH has a mumbling problem, which he is aware of. He says he's had it most of his life. He also has a habit of covering his mouth when he talks, especially when he's nervous or meeting new people. He's...

I popped on here this morning and just noticed I got my 5th star Today marks 6 months officially. We visited our venue again yesterday and figured out more of the logistics (i.e., where to do the...

Since being engaged is a transitional phase of life, I started thinking about skills I want to acquire and hobbies I want to pick up. FH and I are going to take some classes on how to use a sewing...

I have two bridesmaids. They are on opposite ends of the US, and I am in another corner of the US. When I asked them to be bridesmaids, I was clear the only thing they would have to do was wear the...

It's a tradition in FH's family that his grandma hosts a family-only breakfast the morning after the wedding. She has done this for all the grandkids. FH is the last one to get married. However, most...

I tried doing a search of the archives but couldn't find the answer as to whether there is a "rule" about this. FH and the GMs will be wearing tuxes. I can't decide whether the BMs should wear long...

It's amazing what I notice about weddings now that I'm in wedding planning mode. What about y'all? On here, I learn about/am reminded of etiquette, and learn about different regional customs. So...

I realize that's a weird subject line, and feet are weird. But hey, the community guidelines ask us to make our titles eye catching... Since I know next to nothing about fashion, I had a weird...

FH and I had one of our pre-wedding meetings with our rabbi last week. During that meeting he discouraged us from doing a rehearsal. They are not common in our faith. One of the reasons is that the...

I'm starting to gather ideas for my wedding hair-do. My hair is naturally curly which I usually wear down with mouse to set the curls (pictured below). I generally keep it long, because the length...

What is the proper way to extend an invitation to the officiants? I understand etiquette says we invite them, but many often leave or just stay through dinner. We have a rabbi and a cantor. We are new...
