Silly cocktail hour music
Eleanor in Community Conversations, on September 3, 2013 at 10:13 PM

Me and FH have totally different music tastes. We agree on two things, motown and Weird Al. Now obviously motown is totally wedding appropriate. We'd like to slip in a Weird Al song during cocktail...

Less sentimental parent gifts
Eleanor in Planning, on September 3, 2013 at 1:02 PM

I am having trouble coming up with ideas of what to get our parents. We are not particularly sentimental people so none of that "forever your little girl/boy" stuff works. I'm looking for something...

Activities to replace bouquet/garter toss
Eleanor in Community Conversations, on September 3, 2013 at 12:52 PM

So I am not doing a bouquet or garter toss and we're only doing a first dance and a father daughter dance, no mother son dance. I'm worried that I should add some game or something to replace them and...

Rehearsal Dinner Invites
Eleanor in Planning, on August 19, 2013 at 1:54 PM

I am having a semi-destination wedding. It's an hour and a half away from where I live and most of my guests live so guests could go home the night of the wedding but I'm guessing probably won't. I am...

Crocheting bridesmaid gifts
Eleanor in Etiquette and Advice, on August 21, 2013 at 10:28 AM

I love to crochet and I'm pretty good at it. I'm thinking of crocheting afghans for my bridesmaids. I love stuff like that. I'm worried it screams grandma though. Do I need to do something a little...

Grandmother has me thinking twice about venue choice
Eleanor in Planning, on August 14, 2013 at 12:32 PM

So I recently posted that I think I found my venue. It's a yacht club and I love it. It's also in the town I spent most of my summers in and I have so many fond memories. That being said, I would have...

Booked a venue!
Eleanor in Planning, on August 20, 2013 at 1:41 PM

I booked a venue! So excited. I just have to send in my deposit and it will be completely official. I almost started crying when I was talking to the lady on the phone. Did not expect to get so...

Conflicting weddings
Eleanor in Etiquette and Advice, on August 19, 2013 at 12:18 PM

So my Aunt's (Uncle's wife) neice got engaged right around when I did and is planning a wedding in fall 2014. While I don't care at all about whether or not we get married around the same time, I do...

Hello! I am new to weddingwire though I have been lurking a bit since I got engaged a month ago. We have a very tentative date for fall 2014. We are working to find a venue and then will figure out a...

Pumpkin decor?
Eleanor in Style and Décor, on August 7, 2013 at 10:38 AM

I'm planning on a fall wedding. I love pumpkins so I was thinking I would use them for decorations. Not too much but I was definitely thinking of including them in the centerpieces and maybe to...

My mom is funny.
Eleanor in Etiquette and Advice, on August 6, 2013 at 11:43 AM

So yesterday I was talking to my mom and said "Ooh. I'm going to have to figure out what to get you two as a gift." My mom just looked at me like I was crazy and said that that made no sense and that...
