Wedding Website and Dates?
Mika in Planning, on August 25, 2012 at 5:04 PM

OK, so we don't have an exact date just yet, but we have an idea, I don't really want it on the website just yet though. Is there a way to have the website NOT display our date until we're ready to...

Non religious venues: Where did you get married?
Mika in Etiquette and Advice, on June 16, 2012 at 2:41 AM

Neither FH or I are really practicing members of any religion. He was baptized Catholic and I was baptized as a Methodist, but neither of use have set foot in a church for years. Now that it's time to...

Hand addressing invites
Mika in Etiquette and Advice, on June 26, 2012 at 9:30 PM

Ok, so me and my beloved calligraphy pens will be doing the addressing for our invites. Calligraphy is a bit of a hobby of mine, but after every invite, I have a feeling I'll be sick of it! Sooooo,...

How to make snugly and unmanly photos less painful
Mika in Community Conversations, on June 26, 2012 at 9:27 PM

FH hates getting his picture taken, and if he does get snapped, he's making some silly face or being too goofy. He HATES the idea of engagement pictures, but gosh darn it, I'm a scrapbooker and we're...

Leaving the reception
Mika in Etiquette and Advice, on June 21, 2012 at 9:38 PM

In most of the weddings that I've attended, the bride and groom leave the reception a little before it ends, bird seed or bubbles or whatever, and then have gone off to their honeymoon. FH and I are...

Plus ones
Mika in Etiquette and Advice, on June 21, 2012 at 11:50 PM

Ok, so we're automatically plus one-ing anyone who we know has a steady girl or boyfriend, but for some of our guests, I'm just not sure. We're on a tight budget and have waaaay more friends than open...

Mika in Etiquette and Advice, on June 19, 2012 at 11:36 AM

When I add a guest into my guest list there's an option for meal, but it says --not enabled-- how do I enable this? Also, is there a way to list which of my guests will, for example, be drinking? So I...

B-pics for bigger girls
Mika in Wedding Attire, on June 19, 2012 at 10:57 AM

I love the idea of boudoir pics, and I think my honey would like them too, but they always advertise with little skinny models, and I don't really know how the look with bigger women. I carry all of...

"All the single ladies" alternatives
Mika in Planning, on June 12, 2012 at 2:19 PM

Words cannot describe how much I hate this song, and it seems to be the go-to song for bouquet tossing. What are you using for that moment?

Help me buy a corner rounder?!
Mika in Do It Yourself, on June 12, 2012 at 10:04 AM

GM Lined envelopes are soooooo expensive! So, I'm lining my own, putting a little insert into each envelope. I can get all of the angles perfect with the paper cutter, but I was wanting to use a...
