How are you dealing with having different tastes in music than your partner? I like mostly rock and jazz while my partner likes mostly k-pop and rap. We're having live music, so it's very difficult,...
We made the regrettable decision 18 months ago to make our own invitations with our silhouette (die cutting machine). It was so stressful! I absolutely do not recommend it unless you have to make less...
I need some opinions on whether or not to change the hotel the block is at. I reserved the block at the DoubleTree a year ago. They only let me reserce 15 rooms despite my insisting we'll need at...
I have severe asthma and it can be triggered when people wear heavy perfume or cologne. Would it be rude to request of my guests that if they wear scents that they use them sparingly and don't reapply...
If you got the same private message I did, or in general are worried about fitting in your dress, this is your reminder to stop worrying. Your dress is supposed to fit you, not the other way around....

What is your favorite or go to date activity? My fiance and I love getting dressed up and going out to eat. We had "Valentine's" dinner on Saturday at our go to date restaurant.
How did you (or whoever is planning it) choose the date for your bachelor or bachelorette party. My MOH is going by which date we can get the cheapest hotel rate.
I'd like for my mom (flute) and piano teacher to play a duet together (or several) at the ceremony. Any suggestions? Also, when should I have them play? I want to be able to hear it.
I would like to tell guests that our dress code is black tie. My fiancé doesn't like this idea, but he'll go along with it if I really want to. He doesn't actually have a reason for why he doesn't...
After months of looking and trying on over 100 dresses, I finally found my dress! It's so perfect and I got it a discount because it's a previous year's design. I feel like a weight has been lifted....
