The black sheep
Maggie in Wedding Attire, on August 16, 2020 at 12:45 AM

So, idk if it was a miscommunication on my husband’s part or if it was stated and then just ignored. One grooms maid purchased a knee length dress when my only request was a gray floor length dress....

How to be addressed
Maggie in Wedding Ceremony, on March 9, 2020 at 12:26 AM

Question, my real name is Margaret but I go by Maggie. All the invitations are using Margaret just for formal reasons. Should my officiant address me as Margaret as well or can he say Maggie?

Backlash for decisions
