I'm sure you've all been invited to a few weddings since joining this forum. Are there any etiquette faux paus that really bother you? Example: My fiance received a save the date to a wedding in...

Honestly, I'm considering nixing the whole mail in your RSVP idea almost completely. (A few older guests are the exception.) Here's the invite. List the web address. RSVP here by xx/xx/2020. Ceremony...

Last night I got my ENTIRE guest list entered into TheKnot. I might need to do a little spell checking and tweaking. And crossing my fingers that my fiances family doesnt decide to just bring extra...

My fiance picked 2 ushers. One of which is notoriously flaky. I mentioned to him that he should consider choosing a third. Just in case the wind changed direction. Well he didn't ask a third. And the...
