Couples Who Rescheduled: Did you lose vendors and what did you do about it?
Kari in Planning, on April 30, 2020 at 1:32 PM

We are looking into the possibility of rescheduling our wedding (May 30th) and so far it looks like we will have to push it back a full year if we want to keep all of our vendors, as they don't have...

How would you feel?
Kari in Family and Relationships, on April 24, 2020 at 4:57 PM

My FH and I need to change our wedding plans due to Covid-19. We were originally going to have about 80 guests at our wedding on May 30th, and they would have been pretty equally split between "his"...

Kari in Etiquette and Advice, on April 21, 2020 at 7:59 PM

We originally planned to have a 60-80 person wedding with friends and family on May 30th but that is looking unlikely. We are brainstorming alternatives, some of which include having a smaller event...

Kari in Community Conversations, on April 20, 2020 at 6:12 PM

This is the most inspirational #loveisnotcanceled #wegotmarriedanyway #covid19wedding post I have found. Read (and see photos) of how 21 different couples still said "I do" in small, private events...

Are menus necessary?
Kari in Wedding Reception, on January 23, 2020 at 1:37 PM

We're having a plated dinner and our guests will choose their choice option as part of their RSVP, so we will have meal orders to our caterer ahead of time. We are sourcing local, organic,...

Out-of-season Wedding Colors
Kari in Style and Décor, on April 4, 2020 at 5:25 PM

We will likely have to cancel, postpone, or dramatically alter our wedding due to Covid-19 and our main color is a dusty pink/coral, which I think will look very out of place for a non-spring wedding....

Kari in Wedding Attire, on April 4, 2020 at 1:47 PM

Our wedding date is scheduled for May 30th and we think it is unlikely we will be able to have the event we planned on that day. We have considered a bunch of different options, everything from...

Hanging and Displaying My Wedding Dress
Kari in Wedding Attire, on March 12, 2020 at 4:21 PM

My wedding dress came on a wire hanger with a contoured cardboard insert that is shaped to look a bit like breasts to help the top of the dress hold its shape. The top is illusion lace with cups sewn...

Kari in Etiquette and Advice, on March 14, 2020 at 11:19 AM

So my FH sent his best man a list of about 10 guys he definitely wanted invited to his bachelor party along with 5 alternates, the idea being that if a bunch of the original guys couldn't go and a...

Venting about Wedding Wire Forums
Kari in Community Conversations, on March 14, 2020 at 4:17 PM

I really wish Wedding Wire would allow posters to close topics, delete threads, or edit/update original posts. So many times I have posted something and then clarified in the comments, or come to a...

Kari in Etiquette and Advice, on March 8, 2020 at 11:05 AM

We are having a smaller wedding (60-80 guests) and a handful of those on our guest list are people we know cannot attend. I was planning to send them an invitation anyway because I want them to feel...

Kari in Planning, on March 6, 2020 at 11:09 AM

Kari in Honeymoon, on February 26, 2020 at 10:22 AM

I'm not a big jewelry person so have never actually flown with jewelry before. We're going to Florida for a long weekend with some friends and it will be my first time on a plane since getting...

Quick wedding lipstick question!
Kari in Hair and Makeup, on February 15, 2020 at 5:46 PM

On a few posts where brides have had their makeup professionally done I've seen them comment about buying their own lipstick or borrowing from a friend. If you get your makeup done professionally, do...

Rehearsal Dinner Invitations
Kari in Parties and Events, on February 16, 2020 at 11:20 AM

We did email STDs and are doing paper invites for our wedding but online RSVP via our wedding website (so no RSVP cards). Is it too casual to just invite members of the wedding party and our immediate...

Bachelorette Ettiquette
Kari in Parties and Events, on February 7, 2020 at 1:53 PM
