Donation in lieu of favors: wording for table cards?
E & G in Etiquette and Advice, on December 30, 2012 at 10:34 AM

My fiancé and I are making a donation to a cause that's very special to both of us, instead of doing favors at our reception. We plan to put table cards on the tables to let guests know of our plan -...

invite timing - go by RSVP date or wedding date?
E & G in Planning, on July 2, 2013 at 11:59 AM

Do you send out invites 6-8 weeks before the WEDDING date or 6-8 weeks before the RSVP date? I keep finding conflicting info. I have 'em ready to go, and our RSVP date is 7 weeks from Saturday...

Gifts for readers?
E & G in Etiquette and Advice, on July 1, 2013 at 2:33 PM

Is it appropriate to get a gift for the people who do a reading at the ceremony? I'm thinking we should get them something but am wondering if anyone has some good ideas or examples of what they are...

Parents' Gifts - should they be the same/similar?
E & G in Etiquette and Advice, on May 9, 2013 at 2:00 PM

I've found a very nice, meaningful gift that I thought would be perfect to give to both our parents (one for each set of parents - it's something to hang in their home). My groom said he just wanted...

"Maid" vs "Matron"
E & G in Etiquette and Advice, on May 8, 2013 at 11:40 AM

I know technically if your MOH is married, you should call her "Matron of Honor." I just don't like the word "matron" (neither does she) so can I call her my Maid of Honor even if she's married? It...

Transportation pricing question - outside NYC
E & G in Planning, on April 24, 2013 at 11:49 AM

NYC area brides - how much are you budgeting for limos? We have minimal needs (only to/from church as our reception is in the hotel where everyone is staying). I reached out for our first quote and...

quick vent - shower invites
E & G in Etiquette and Advice, on March 13, 2013 at 12:08 PM

I don't post often, just need to vent to those who understand! My mom sent out shower invites. She chose the kind that you buy blank and fill in the name, info, etc by hand and I'm mortified. They...

Calligraphy?
E & G in Etiquette and Advice, on February 28, 2013 at 6:10 PM

Hi ladies, I've been told that labels on wedding invitations are tacky (i.e. printing out the addresses in nice font and sticking them on) and that they should be hand written so my best bet is to...

Garter toss?
E & G in Wedding Attire, on January 28, 2013 at 8:12 PM

This is probably a really dumb question so forgive me! How does the garter toss work? Do you wear both and groom just takes off the toss one? Or do you keep the toss one aside somehow? Just one of...

addressing invitation/save the date to married doctors?
E & G in Etiquette and Advice, on January 18, 2013 at 2:13 PM

Not sure if anyone has encountered this, but one married couple we are inviting to our wedding are both doctors. I feel like it would be slighting the wife to put "Dr. and Mrs." on the invitation but...

NY Brides - hair & makeup
E & G in Wedding Attire, on January 4, 2013 at 5:33 PM

Hi ladies, how far in advance did you book your hair & makeup people? I was really excited to go see a potential makeup artist who seemed awesome but she just emailed to say that a bride just signed a...
