Emily in Etiquette and Advice, on April 4, 2022 at 2:00 PM

Emily in Parties and Events, on August 30, 2022 at 6:52 PM

Who else is getting married on 9/10? We're doing a farewell brunch after that falls on 9/11. Are you doing anything to commemorate 9/11? It feels weird to not address it, but we don't want to make it...

My fiancé and I didn't try to have a child free wedding (some under 21 and under 18 cousins are invited of course), but due to capacity constraints at the reception, we don't have the space to invite...

Bridesmaid Pjs
Emily in Wedding Attire, on May 14, 2022 at 10:55 AM

I was thinking about getting my bridesmaids matching pajama sets for pictures of us getting ready. Should I be sticking to the wedding colors, or should I choose different colors?

Wording of Parents on Invitation
Emily in Etiquette and Advice, on May 9, 2022 at 12:47 PM

We are having a black-tie option wedding, and we are struggling with the wording for the invites. I think the traditional way is misogynistic, and I wanted to include our moms names. We have the names...

Emily in Community Conversations, on April 19, 2022 at 9:57 AM

For those of you having a formal wedding, how did you address your invites? It feels weird addressing some people with their actual first name when they always go by a nickname. Did you just use their...

Dreading Being Center of Attention
Emily in Community Conversations, on April 20, 2022 at 2:56 PM

I'm an introvert, and I don't like being the center of attention. I'm starting to freak out about the wedding as it gets closer. I wanted to elope, but I got outvoted from my fiancé and our parents...

Emily in Do It Yourself, on April 23, 2022 at 6:37 PM

My fiancé and I wanted to make our own invitations to save money, but we aren't designers. Would anyone be able to review our work before we send it off to get printed? Thanks!

Wedding Shoes
Emily in Wedding Attire, on April 18, 2022 at 9:21 AM

I noticed a couple posts about wedding shoes recently. Is buying shoes specifically for your wedding necessary? I thought since nobody would see your shoes because of your dress, you can get away with...

Not changing my last name
Emily in Community Conversations, on March 31, 2022 at 12:43 PM

Is there anyone else not changing their last name after marriage? It doesn't seem fair that this is only expected of women, and that they've had their whole life and have build their name only to be...
