Hey all, I'm stuck in a sticky situation regarding my MOH and I don't know what to do. So about 8 years ago, my MOH had this passionate fling with this Romanian man, but he told her that he couldn't...

Hey all, We had our reception this past weekend. At the beginning of the month of June, we had about 50 RSVPs. Slowly but surely, people began backing out. We heard all sorts of excuses: one guest...

Boise-area couples, I'm in need of some help! As we get closer to the wedding date, I think it would be great to get some hired help. However, all of the wedding planners I've spoken to all require me...

Our wedding is in Boise next month. My husband asked his groomsmen to be in the wedding party last August, to which they joyfully agreed. A month or so later, they broached the idea of having his...

Hey ladies! I need some advice! Throughout high school and college, I had a dear friend who was like a sister to me. In 2018, I went to Texas to do a semester-long internship for grad school. I'd call...

Hey Ladies! I need to vent! I was married on the 19th of last month. I chose a photographer that was the wife of an attorney I work with. I'd met her in person and she'd done our engagement photos and...

Hey all! In preparation for my upcoming nuptials , my mother has been passing all sorts of unsolicited advice onto me. Most of them make me roll my eyes (LOL), but every one in a while, one cracks me...

I am so sorry everyone, but I just need to vent. I originally planned a very low-key wedding with just a handful of guests, not so much as a result of Covid but more of the fact that both my fiancé...

Hi everyone! We are hosting our reception in my in-laws backyard, in an absolutely beautiful part of Idaho in the summer of June 2021. First of all, please know that I am incredibly grateful to my...
