We are scrambling to find a rehearsal dinner location for 60 guests with wedding date less than 12 weeks away within our budget. Though FH doesn’t like the idea of this one restaurant, 1) because...

I know there’s a million posts on here but just wanted to get your opinion on my idea: I have 8 BMs.... Pay for hair (~$50) Gift card specific to BM that they would like...

Hey guys I keep going back and forth on what type of veil I want. I think both short and long look good. If I did the long then I’d probably take it off after the planned dances during the reception....
