How long does the Virginia ABC liquor license take to be approved?
Elaine778 in Planning, on September 12, 2016 at 5:56 PM

My venue requires a liquor license, even though I don't think it's necessary based on the requirements from the Alcoholic Beverage Control's website. The website says to apply at least 12 days before...

Vendor meals necessary with a buffet?
Elaine778 in Planning, on September 15, 2016 at 10:37 AM

Do we need to provide designated vendor meals if we're having a buffet? I'm thinking of ordering our exact guest count, 95, and hoping the extra margin or the portions for no-shows covers our 5 vendor...

No guest photos during aisle walk only?
Elaine778 in Planning, on September 5, 2016 at 6:38 PM

Would it be weird to have my officiant tell guests to refrain from taking photos during the walks up and down the aisle? I think it would be annoying for me and the wedding party to see cell phone...

Are dress vendors intentionally misleading about sizes?
Elaine778 in Wedding Attire, on August 17, 2016 at 9:16 PM

I was shown the manufacturer's measurements (at the salon owned by the company) when I ordered my dress, but my dress came in noticeably larger than that. I was in between sizes, and the associate...

Too many appointments the morning of?
Elaine778 in Planning, on July 19, 2016 at 7:32 PM

I only have two appointments, but the distances between both and my venue are fairly great. My plan was to save money and book the vendors I want, but I'm wondering if this will turn into a logistical...

Do these orchids look real or fake?
Elaine778 in Style and Décor, on June 19, 2016 at 1:18 AM

Do these look real or fake? Also, how many stems do you think this centerpiece requires, and how much are real phalaenopsis orchids?

Terrible makeup trial, redo engagement shoot?
Elaine778 in Wedding Attire, on June 12, 2016 at 10:33 AM

My makeup trial was terrible. I looked like an unrecogizable clown. Unfortunately, my planner told me it would be a good idea to get the trial on the same day of my engagement shoot. She had been the...

Hiring a calligrapher is also impersonal?
Elaine778 in Planning, on May 30, 2016 at 3:48 PM

The comment section of the following article brings up the point that hiring a calligrapher to address your invitation envelopes is no more personal than printing out labels. After all, the...

Plus one on envelope or RSVP card?
Elaine778 in Etiquette and Advice, on May 30, 2016 at 10:35 PM

Do I need to address my envelopes to "Ms. Jane Smith Guest" if the RSVP card says "We have reserved 2 seats in your honor"? The RSVP card also has a space for the guest to write in the number of...

Which color for a rose bouquet?
Elaine778 in Style and Décor, on May 25, 2016 at 10:39 AM

I would like a rose bridal bouquet all in one color. Should I go with red or a pink/mauve tone?

Jewelry suggestions with this dress?
Elaine778 in Wedding Attire, on February 28, 2016 at 2:26 PM

Hello. What necklace and earrings would go well with this dress? I was thinking dangling pearl earrings and perhaps a pearl necklace. The top has a lot of beading, and so the classic diamond-type...
