So I am having my ceremony at 630pm followed by cocktail hour and then dinner. Dinner would begin at 8. Is that late? Appetizers would be passed around cocktail hour. My wedding is scheduled to end at...

Who did you send thank you cards to? I've been reading online that most send it to only those that gave a gift. Is that correct? We had a lot of people that didn't give us a gift or even a card for a...

This just came to mind but how long are you expected to wear engagement ring after you get married. I remember my former boss had been married for like 15 years and still wore her engagement ring...

I gave my day of coordinator envelopes to tip everyone ahead of time. I was expecting my photographer to come with 1 other shooter as the package stated but he ended up bringing 3 more shooters. I...

I'm super excited about my wedding this Saturday but it just sucks that its going to rain. I paid extra to have the pergola decorated with flowers and draping. I have spoken to the florist about maybe...

How many guests and approx. how much did you buy? Did you end up having leftovers? I've been debating on buying my own or just going through my caterer. We are allowed to bring our own at the venue as...

Does anyone know if the Azazie wisteria purple is like the David's bridal wisteria? My bridesmaids decided on dresses at DB and I told them any dress is fine as long as it's wisteria. One of my...

Good morning everyone! I know this has been discussed many times here. My family has never really attended anything formal and are almost always late. It is very rude. I am always punctual. An example...

Sorry - I have another invite question about the wording. I did a google search and came up with different things. How did you word yours for those that had start times at _:30. I was going to to go...

I am in the process of hiring a photographer. There is one photographer I do like - but in his contract he states that they only promise to deliver 300 edited pics. He said it's usually more but...

Anyone have a bavarian cake for their wedding? I ask because I really want bavarian cream filling with strawberries on all 3 tiers. I went to 3 bakeries and one of them said they could only do the top...
