People not knowing the proper amount to spend?
Gen in Registry, on October 8, 2018 at 12:45 PM

Ok, so I'm really just making this thread to see if other people have heard of/experienced similar things to this and if it's something we really need to take into consideration when registering. I...

App saying i have 800 notifications? Mark as read?
Gen in Account Support, on October 16, 2018 at 3:15 PM

After the update, WW is saying I have 800 unread notifications because it’s showing literally every notification I’ve ever received. I see an option to “mark all as unread” but no option to “mark as...

Changing last name / in-law problems
Gen in Family and Relationships, on October 24, 2018 at 2:29 PM

My in-laws are just terrible, and it’s getting to the point where it feels disgusting and wrong that I’m going to share a last name with them. Beyond that, it’s not even like it’s “FH’s family name”...

Does anyone else feel like as soon as you resolve one issue that you are anxious about, your brain just immediately bounces over to the next thing on your to do list and you immediately start...

Is a tiara too trendy?
Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 22, 2018 at 3:48 PM

So, I really have wanted to wear a tiara in addition to a veil, but I’m starting to worry that it’s too trendy and I may not like how it looks in photos years down the line. ie my mom wore this huge...

Why cant you just go to a store and buy a ring?!
Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 21, 2018 at 12:22 PM

My FH and I have been to 12 jewelry stores this weekend. Yes, TWELVE. I expanded my horizons to say, I will take any ring, literally ANY RING in our price range, don't even care what the stone is....

At-home date ideas?
Gen in Married Life, on October 19, 2018 at 2:50 PM

Now that the weather is getting colder and FH and I are living together, I find it getting increasingly more and more difficult to motivate ourselves to get out and do something! Really trying to not...

Videographer struggles
Gen in Wedding Ceremony, on October 18, 2018 at 10:37 AM

Ok, so seriously all we care about in terms of videography is having a video of our ceremony, and we’d like 2 shooters so they can get both our faces and walking down the aisle. We have a meeting with...

How would you personalize your robe?
Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 17, 2018 at 12:12 PM

I don’t want to put “future Mrs” or “bride” or anything because then i feel like it would be weird to wear it again after the wedding haha. Would you put a monogram, or Mrs. newlastname ? What did...

Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 15, 2018 at 2:23 PM

For those of you who saw my previous post, my FH was able to get a refund on the ring that the jeweler messed up! Yay! On the bright side of this whole mess, we get to pick out a new engagement ring...

Vera Wang ring resizing psa
Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 16, 2018 at 3:46 PM

Figured I would share the knowledge from my recent ring-disaster experience... I love Vera Wang rings and I loved mine, but only after 10 months of wearing the wrong size ring was I informed that my...

Keep making the wrong decisions
Gen in Planning, on October 16, 2018 at 10:46 AM

This isn’t so much of a question as it is a general rant. I feel like not only do things keep “changing” with the wedding but I feel like I’m consistently making decisions that I’m confident about,...

Ugh, ring :(
Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 14, 2018 at 9:43 PM

Despite already being sized down twice, my ring was STILL too big so we took it to get sized down again this weekend... only to discover that, apparently, this ring wasn’t meant to be sized down by...

Silver or rose gold?
Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 13, 2018 at 3:35 PM

For bridesmaid bracelets? Im leaning towards rose gold because it works better with our wedding theme colors and is more unique, but also would they appreciate the silver more to wear after the...

Who is in your bridal party?
Gen in Family and Relationships, on October 11, 2018 at 3:09 PM

What is the significance of the people you’ll have standing next to you? How did you choose who to ask? And how many do you each have?

Wish i knew our headcount right away
Gen in Planning, on October 11, 2018 at 2:33 PM

This is more just a rant than anything, of course we’re planning and budgeting around the assumption that we’ll get 100% attendance, but a huge number of our guests are out of state (some even out of...

Closed toe or open toe slippers?
Gen in Wedding Attire, on October 11, 2018 at 12:36 PM

This is a really dumb and petty question but just curious what you would prefer as a bridesmaid! (The robes I am ordering come with slippers for an additional $2 so I feel like I may as well...

Bridesmaid gifts
Gen in Planning, on October 9, 2018 at 1:02 PM

Ok, so I already got my girls monogrammed tote bags/beach bags that I figure they can reuse and it’ll also be nice to (1) hold the rest of their gifts and (2) use it to bring their stuff to the venue...

Designating a guest in charge of photos

Adding to the bridal party?
Gen in Wedding Ceremony, on October 8, 2018 at 10:22 AM

OK so it's definitely true that all the things I thought were "easy" or a just given at the beginning of planning all end up coming back to haunt me somehow, lol. When we started planning, in terms...
