FH has a baby cousin who will be 3 next summer. She's extremely bright and is generally well behaved for a child her age (though with kids, you really can't predict anything). Is she too young to...

Recent message: "How much would you kill me if I applied for a one year position in Madagascar? I'd obviously fly home for the wedding but I probably wouldn't be able to do things before, would you...

Ugh vent. My FMIL really must be from another solar system. She is referring to our wedding as a "destination wedding" because she has to travel to it (its not, at least 60% of our guests live within...

We have a number of OOT guests invited to the wedding. We already have a hotel block posted on our website. A couple of friends of ours were asking about airbnb in the area. Since it's a suburban...

I find myself depressed by association: 1) MOH's man turned out to be a real dud, only dating a couple of months, but it was nice to see her happy after not being in a relationship for such a long...

How is everyone choosing to remember those who have passed away on the day of their wedding (assuming people are doing this)? All 4 of my grandparents and my favorite great aunt and uncle, who were...

I've been to a lot of showers where women are wearing cute dresses and what not. I'm more of a jeans person. I've been trying to convince my MOH (who is hosting my shower) that I'd prefer a more...

Are there any other girls in the Triangle (or even the Triad) on here? Would girls be interested in a meet-up at some point this spring?

Tomorrow, many girlfriends will become fianceés. They will be happy and overjoyed to get married and will join us on these forums. Let's make a list of thread topics they probably shouldn't post. I'll...

So I'm considering a spray tan for my wedding. First, I'm as pale as a ghost, second, I do get color in the summer and my tan lines are very distinct on my shoulders and back from tank tops (so while...

I am currently a first year PhD student in biomedical sciences and was wondering any other biomed PhDs or PhDs-to-be were on WW. Eager to hear how you guys are balancing science/lab-time with wedding...

So long story short, FH's family is getting weird. Whenever they ask him about the wedding he gives them the information he knows, but usually defers to me since I'm the one planning the entire...

That was legitimately a question I got last night. When the guest list was first made, I had every intention of inviting her boyfriend. The 4 of us (her, bf, me, FH) hung out plenty together when we...

I feel like my FMIL just doesn't give a sh!t to be honest. Instead of being excited about her firstborn getting married, she almost seems apathetic. It's everything, from trying to avoid spending more...

FH's parents divorced a few years ago. I love my FFIL's GF and they are about to move in together. She's been a super supportive ear to chat with throughout planning thus far. I really want to invite...

So I love my mom, 'nuff said. Her brother has been a huge jerk to her, picked a fight with her, and they currently are not on speaking terms (all of this was recent). His kids are all grown adults...

I'm not really interested in debating my personal current choice in the matter, but thought I would pose a question. With respect to space and money and all other important factors: Do you blow your...
