Cake traditions

Full service catering vs restaurant drop off
Michelle in Wedding Reception, on July 4, 2022 at 7:39 PM

Was your ceremony on time?
Michelle in Wedding Ceremony, on June 19, 2022 at 4:32 PM

Whether as a former bride or a guest attending someone else’s wedding. If it did run late, how long after being seated did you (or the other bride) walk down the aisle?

“Don’t call the bride”
Michelle in Planning, on June 20, 2022 at 5:26 PM

I was reading this on another website and it made absolutely no sense. If you have a concern why would you keep quiet and not ask the bride? Getting in touch on the wedding day to hash out problems is...

What makes being a bridesmaid expensive?
Michelle in Etiquette and Advice, on May 8, 2022 at 10:58 PM

The statement “being a bridesmaid is incredibly expensive” is commonly said but that doesn’t apply to every single bridesmaid, does it? Compared to the basic costs of being a guest, how does being a...

Michelle in Etiquette and Advice, on April 13, 2021 at 9:16 PM

Bustle vs no train vs ?
Michelle in Wedding Attire, on April 14, 2022 at 4:39 PM

Most dresses have trains unless they are custom made without one. Following the ceremony they are nearly always bustled so that you and guests do not trip over it. There are also the wrist loops but...

What is your wedding style?
Michelle in Style and Décor, on April 14, 2022 at 4:35 PM

What colors and other elements led you toward what you and fiancé ultimately chose? Are you doing vibrant spring colors in a local outdoor setting? Or moody colors in a warehouse?
