In remembrance page- please help?! Paging Celia?
Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on March 2, 2017 at 10:37 PM

Hi everyone! I'm working on my wedding program and on the back of the program, I wanted to put a personal thank-you to guests as well as an "in remembrance" section. Most of our grandparents have...

We have our reception venue for a total of 5 hours (5-10pm) with 5-6 being cocktail hour. At our tasting last month, our coordinator said last call would be at 9, saying people who still want to drink...

WANT to give favors, which would be popular?
Meaghan in Planning, on February 23, 2017 at 9:47 AM

64 days...holy cow! I want to give favors to my guests. I know they're not popular on here as money-suckers and I get that, but I WANT to give favors. Original idea was to give mini wine bottles but...

Shower hostess thank-you?
Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on February 20, 2017 at 10:28 AM

Other than a heart-felt Thank You card, I'm looking for ideas of Thank You gifts for my 3 shower hostesses. If money were no object, I'd get them flowers or a fruit basket or something delivered to...

Good travel vibes please!

My first shower is happening Sunday and I'm so looking forward to seeing my Bridesmaids and spending time with the in-laws. But the shower is in Philly and I'm in San Diego where Old Testament storms...

Tux timeline?
Meaghan in Wedding Attire, on February 15, 2017 at 5:42 PM

I'm sure many of you have used Men's Wearhouse. We have 5 groomsmen and 3 dads/stepdads between us. My fiancé and 3 of his 5 men have been measured. So has my dad. His dad has asked twice now if he...

Cake and more cake!
Meaghan in Planning, on February 11, 2017 at 5:39 PM

Just decided on my wedding and grooms cake. Haven't decided if I'll have flowers in the middle of cake or just on top. For my southeastern folks, yup- this is Publix. Home of the greatest damn cakes...

Nicely saying "No your kids aren't invited"
Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on February 7, 2017 at 8:38 PM

Invites go out in exactly one week (STDs already went in Sept) and today we were talking to a friend asking that IF she was planning to attend, could she do a ceremony reading for us. She responded...

Finally over my dress regret :)
Meaghan in Wedding Attire, on February 13, 2017 at 5:54 PM

I agonized over Dress 1 and Dress 2 back in December. I got over it and stuck with my original choice and did not purchase Dress 2. And I'm glad! Here it is (back view and altered to fit me) with my...

Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on February 12, 2017 at 10:17 PM

I used a private stationer for my save-the-dates and invitations. Staring down at my balances, I'm afraid that- while she does beautiful work and I can change things easily with her (I paid for the...

Groomsman gift ideas (not the usual flask)
Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on February 9, 2017 at 10:21 PM

Any groovy ideas for groomsmen gifts? I think FH wants to personalize this by buying each guy something he's personally interested in/needs/is a fan of, etc. which I think is cool. But any other ideas...

Meaghan in Wedding Attire, on February 11, 2017 at 10:32 AM

So....I have 5 little boys in my wedding party. I've asked the parents to use the bottom picture as a guide just without the suit jacket and changing the color from red to yellow. So I asked the moms...

10-foot long veil
Meaghan in Wedding Attire, on February 4, 2017 at 2:44 AM

Soooooo I purchased a 130" veil from Etsy and if my math is correct, it's 10 feet total. I am 5 of those feet so the veil extends 5 feet behind me. My train I believe is 108". I should have gone with...

Wedding stamps- PLEASE help!
Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on January 31, 2017 at 12:45 AM

Hey all! I weighed a fully-assembled invitation set earlier in January not realizing stamps were going up- so this was before they went up. The clerk told me I needed 68-cent stamps but I wasn't...

3 months away!!!
Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on January 29, 2017 at 2:59 PM

What should I be doing 3 months out? The things I have coming up in February: my first (or is it second?) fitting of my dress and waiting for my veil to be delivered to see if it matches and is what...

Meaghan in Etiquette and Advice, on January 25, 2017 at 2:11 PM

My invites have already been printed and we're to go out in the mail in 2-3 weeks. I had an insert outlining the wedding block of rooms at the nearby hotel. It's a Wyndham. I was just told today it's...

Meaghan in Wedding Attire, on January 15, 2017 at 5:51 PM

I am not fashion forward so let me start there. My MOH is throwing a shower for me in Philadelphia next month. I am living in California so I need to wear something reasonably warm. I have 2...
