Why are loved ones as ushers a thing?
Elizabeth in Planning, on September 10, 2016 at 12:09 PM

This comes up a lot on here and I don't get it. It seems that being an usher is seen as a role you give to someone you want to honor. But does anyone actually enjoy ushering guests? Why isn't it...

Response cards don't have a title at the top
Elizabeth in Planning, on August 22, 2016 at 8:26 AM

Just received our response cards and there's no "RSVP" or anything at the top. There's room to put it there. It's just not there. We have a reception card that says "Reception" on the top and an...

Anyone else doing an unchoreographed first dance?
Elizabeth in Planning, on August 14, 2016 at 1:39 PM

Literally every wedding I've gone to recently included a choreographed first dance that seemed more like a show than what I think of as a traditional first dance. I was discussing this with some of my...

I know you've posted this before, but given that our search feature sucks, can you please post the name of the Etsy shop where you bought your cape once again?

Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on July 30, 2016 at 9:13 AM

We're having a rehearsal/welcome dinner for our guests. We're paying for dinner and drinks obviously. But dinner will be at a restaurant/bar that's part of the hotel. If people want to stay...

Response cards
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on July 18, 2016 at 9:00 AM

Did you write out what the meal options were on your response cards or did you leave it generic (beef versus chicken)? Ours just have beef, chicken, vegetarian, or children's meal, but aren't more...

Spinoff: what kind of bra do you wear to work out?
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on July 4, 2016 at 10:04 AM

The bra thread inspired me to ask this question. I usually work out in a sports bra, but it really isn't very comfortable because I haven't found one with the right support. I'm a 34 DD. Do you all...

PSA for summer outdoor brides: HAVE A BACKUP!
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on July 2, 2016 at 1:34 PM

Just got an invite for a South Carolina wedding in a garden on August 13th. There's not an indoor backup, so the invite says umbrellas will be provided if it rains. Forget the rain, which is bad...

Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on May 2, 2016 at 9:02 PM

Just read a vendor contract that included a clause that stated that if the client disparages the vendor to anyone, whether its in online reviews or offline person-to-person communication, they will...

Bridesmen: what to get them?
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on April 3, 2016 at 12:55 PM

I'm not concerned about what to get my bridesmaids, but I'm at a loss for my bridesmen. I can't get them flasks because one has a seizure disorder and the other doesn't drink anymore. I already know...

Salty Saturday?
Elizabeth in Community Conversations, on March 19, 2016 at 11:13 AM

I'm salty that veterans everyone loves are being banned, putting a damper on fun threads like Confession Friday.

Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on March 16, 2016 at 6:23 PM

Ok ladies, I need a reality check here. We kept going back and forth on video and I finally decided to look into it because as happy as I am with the photographer we chose, I feel like still photos...

Is it B-listing to not send everyone a STD?
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on March 13, 2016 at 12:02 PM

First, I know that STDs are not mandatory. We're choosing to send them because (a) our wedding is a DW and 90% of our guests have never been to the state before and due to the time of year, we want to...

The formality of addressing invitations
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on February 20, 2016 at 9:57 AM

I'm addressing my STDs and ran across a thread on that, but I'm curious about the invitations and have a few etiquette questions. (1) When inviting a married couple, you do Mr. and Mrs. John Smith,...

UPDATE -- Decorator?
Elizabeth in Planning, on December 31, 2015 at 8:27 AM

My venue is pretty plain, but we plan to decorate it. The problem is, we have access only the day of. I'm wondering what people to when they want to decorate the venue? Are there people who are hired...

So I've posted before that I bought a dress a couple of months ago and ended up having dress regret. Well, I found another dress I love and ended up buying it this weekend. But the new dress makes me...

Where are all the November BAMs and updates from December brides?
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on December 27, 2015 at 9:51 AM

Seems like we haven't had any BAMs in a while and we haven't heard much from those who had December weddings (or did I miss them?). Would love to hear from you ladies! Was it everything you dreamed?...

Gratuity always 20%, even for high-priced vendors?
Elizabeth in Etiquette and Advice, on December 27, 2015 at 9:48 AM

So I obviously plan to tip everyone and for hair, makeup, etc., I do plan to tip 20%. But my question is about vendors like photographers. My photographer is charging $4000. Do you tip 20% on...
