Are any of you no longer in contact with your bridesmaids/men or vice versa?
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on November 8, 2017 at 5:57 PM

I'm not planning on asking for a few more months but I'm starting to plan out my bridal party. There are 3 girls that I'm close to at this moment from my part time job that I hang out with often...

Catholic annulment: his ex-wife is not nice and the church will need to talk to her?!
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on September 15, 2017 at 10:42 AM

Has anyone gone through the (new pope's) catholic annulment process? We met with the priest yesterday to start our marriage preparations and he said that 1. Although it's a faster process now, the...

Anyone doing that thing where you greet your guests as they enter reception?
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on July 14, 2017 at 6:11 PM

So I'm not having a cocktail hour (there's a huge, UNAVOIDABLE gap between ceremony and reception so not having a gap or having a cocktail hour isn't really an option). My questions are 1. Are you...

To baby shower or not to baby shower
Malei in Married Life, on December 14, 2018 at 2:28 PM

Hey all! So we found out we were expecting a week before our wedding (first words out of my mouth was, "But, but open bar!"). My bridal shower was this past August and the wedding was this past...

Malei in Community Conversations, on October 18, 2018 at 3:37 PM

FINALLY! I could NOT WAIT for 10/6 to come because I was done with all the planning. Haha! After a year and a half of planning and trying to keep under budget, our day finally came and went and our...

Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on September 30, 2018 at 2:08 PM

So wedding is this Saturday and I’ve been off contraceptives for about a month. I took a pregnancy test this morning and: 1. Never saw ANY lines but when I put pressure on the pee stick part (to see...

Drones?
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on September 19, 2018 at 6:18 PM

We are having a photographer and videographer and, because of our GORGEOUS location of our reception, I made sure to get a videographer with a drone license (no extra charge to use their drone). But...

When guests decline/unsure of attendance but show up anyway
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on September 12, 2018 at 2:12 PM

So I’ve done my follow up to those that haven’t RSVP’d and have two situations: 1. I have family that say they’re not sure if they can make it but if they do, they’ll be late. I know they sincerely...

Guest's husband might bring someone instead of wife who is my friend
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on August 29, 2018 at 3:32 PM

So I get that the "seat" is already reserved and paid for but let me know if I have any other options than to just deal with it. So I got really close to someone who started CrossFit the same time as...

Partial Wedding Planner Woes
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on August 28, 2018 at 2:47 PM

So I've had issues with my planner before to where she was not responding and I've had to follow up multiple times with her. I called her on it and told her that I have no problem losing the deposit...

What if i can't say, "we're limited," or, "we're keeping it small?"
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on August 7, 2018 at 5:08 PM

So I've been trolling on here for how to tell people they're not invited but the answers don't really help in my situation. We are inviting 250 people and expecting 200. This is unavoidable in my...

Getting professional hair/makeup/nails for shower too much?
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on August 3, 2018 at 6:45 PM

Hey all! So I already tried asking if my HMUA can do my trial on the morning of my bridal shower but she has another wedding that day. I figure I can have my nail trial done for that, at least. But do...

Malei in Wedding Reception, on July 24, 2018 at 5:44 PM

So our reception is located outdoors right next to a gorgeous landmark fishpond. FH and I will be heading straight from our picture taking (during cocktail hour) and right into the grand entrance....

Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on July 25, 2018 at 5:49 PM

So rsvp's for my bridal shower were due last Friday and invitations went out three weeks before that. My shower is August 11. I honestly didn't know how it would go and was wondering why my bridesmaid...

Is this too much to ask of the wedding party/front pew guests?
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on July 16, 2018 at 5:33 PM

So we're getting married in a church and not having an unplugged wedding. I am aware of how pictures could turn out with people trying to get their own pictures. To try to minimize that, I'm having...

Mr. and Mrs. for our Sweetheart Table
Malei in Style and Décor, on June 22, 2018 at 8:27 PM

Okay so FH and I decided that any kind of block lettering on top of our sweetheart table will probably be knocked down by one of us. So I'm deciding between making a "Mr. and Mrs." Banner to go in...

Opinions needed: Should my mom be in getting ready pics?
Malei in Planning, on June 21, 2018 at 6:07 PM

Let me start off by saying my mom and I aren't close. There's no bad blood or anything, my parents are just traditional Asian and raised us more to respect each other than to be affectionate (it's...

My cheapiness may have got the best of me (vent)
Malei in Etiquette and Advice, on June 7, 2018 at 6:55 PM

So this week is our friend's last week of work before moving out of country. Because we found out after I already addressed the invitations and envelopes, I suggested that we just give our friend the...
