Do the bride's shoes have to coordinate with the bridesmaids? I'm thinking silver sandal-type shoes or wedges for them. I may go with flats. With my dress, I could go with ivory, champagne, or silver....
I need a hair and makeup artist near our venue in Palos Verdes, willing to travel onsite. I waited too long to book the one I wanted and she booked a trip out of town, but had off-season pricing and...
How long before you wait to contact people for RSVP's? Half of my guest list is awesome, and I can't tell if the other half is just assuming it's obvious that they're coming or they don't find it...
The title says it all. I have ceremony heels and reception flats, and I don't want to trip on my dress. I've heard some people split the difference, or even remove their under slip (though that would...
We have been between a couple of options. We had originally asked a dear friend of ours who did a beautiful job at our friends' wedding, but he is very wishy-washy in general. He did not answer the...
I can't believe how expensive hair and makeup services are to be done onsite, even if they are in the same city. So far, I have found ONE vendor that charges $185 for both hair and makeup, but...
My mom, fiance and I went to look at flowers in downtown LA. We really liked the double stemmed white or ivory phaelenopsis orchids with glass containers and moss, and considered: a) purchasing them...
Just wondering if anyone else has asked their future FIL to be the officiant for their wedding? If so, how did it go?
Tensions have been on the rise between one of my bridesmaids and myself. She was originally going to be my MOH, but since we've grown apart she didn't feel comfortable doing so. We talked about what...
We have taken a drive through the area and are looking specifically anywhere between Palos Verdes, Torrance, and Redondo Beach. Any recommendations on rehearsal lunch venues that are nice and fit our...
So my fiance's parents have generously offered to pay for the rehearsal dinner. The budget is $500-600 for approximately 25-30 people, which, with my food sensitivities has been a challenge in...

I think my girls and I finally have it narrowed down: Option 1: this dress in navy, eggplant, or gray. https://www.weddingtonway.com/products/alfred-angelo-7340l-bridesmaiddress?sku=aa-7340L-navy I'm...
We have been having a difficult time finding dresses that flatter all of the girls. One store we've liked is Alfred Angelo. We've eliminated David's Bridal. I'm thinking that if it's not Alfred...
Hello, Has anyone used Eshakti for their bridesmaid dresses? We have been eyeing them for the past couple of months, and as new styles come in, their other styles quickly vanish. Has anyone been able...
I have 5 girls, all with different heights and body types. I've looked around quite a bit and the Kennedy Blue and Alfred Angelo dresses are my favorites. We are trying on Alfred Angelo today. Kennedy...
We love our photographer and unfortunately only have the budget for one, photography or videography. My FH works in IT and has been talking about doing a stationary camera angle for filming the...
So one of my friends (formerly MOH) and I have been friends for almost 9 years. In the past few we have grown apart (different life stages), and ultimately we decided it was better for our friendship...
My FH and I are looking for a DOC. Our budget is under $1k. What did you rely on your DOC for? How much was a partial planner? What did you discuss in terms of expectations and preparing...
I'm looking for a rustic trail in Southern California that my fiance and I can take with our closest family and friends for an intimate exchange of vows. We are looking for something on a hilltop with...
