Sitting and discussing the guest list with FH and the FILs. If there are elderly people who don't drive, do we need to give them plus ones? We're having a smallish wedding compared to other family and...
SOOOOO I might not be getting legally married on Saturday. FH and I applied for the marriage license last Wednesday (with our witness). Since it takes 72 hours to process in NJ, and the clerk's office...
Hi all! My fiance and I are most likely doing a mini-moon (budget reasons, plus I just feel like we'll be too tired for a big trip) after our November wedding. (Don't worry-- we'll probably still do a...
Just making an attempt to break up all of the old posts on the front page. Ours is "their new marriage was going great, but the husband was hiding a big secret." Over the weekend, I found out that DH...
So I've seen posters say not to register at Kohl's...can someone share actual experiences or provide background info? FH loves Kohl's and has a Kohl's card, plus we have a great store less than 5 min...
So I've been around this week but there were a lot of BAMs on Monday and Tuesday, and I didn't want to step on anyone's toes. November 7 was the best day ever! I've seen some people comment on...
Okay, this is dumb. But, as a not-so-girly girl, I have a question for those of you who get regular manicures. We have time on Friday afternoon to set up our decor. I think we'll probably be doing...
I just got an e-mail from the hotel block people asking specifics about our wedding NEXT WEEKEND. I know we're down to 11 days and it's getting close, but that's the first time I've heard it said so...
He buys bear hats for both of you, since you've had recurring wedding nightmares where you make your first entrance as a couple wearing bear costumes. It got to the point where I suggested we buy...
FH actually brought this up the other day and said I should ask WW! I definitely agreed-- this is the perfect sort of thing for you girls (and guys). What's the protocol with thank yous and holiday...
Had my bridal shower Saturday and it was awesome! My bridesmaids did such a great job. It was baseball themed (FH and I are huge baseball fans-- Phillies for me and Yankees for him), and everyone said...
Just wanted to share some experience here. We used RSVP postcards, which were fine for the most part. Some people have expressed concerns on here about postcards potentially getting lost more easily....
So it's time for us to start purchasing alcohol. We're doing a limited bar (beer and wine only)-- just wanted to get thoughts on suggestions. Based on calculators for 107 guests, I think we'll need...
So FH and I haven't booked any sort of honeymoon yet. We've resigned ourselves to the fact that the big trip will have to be next year (Costa Rica?) but we both took the week after the wedding off...
Out of curiousity, does the FOB still give the toast if the B&G are hosting the wedding? We've had some issues with my parents over the last year, plus my dad is sort of awkward, so we're not sure if...
I need inspiration! My hair isn't super thick but will generally cooperate (curl or straighten). I'm pretty fair, and my day-to-day makeup is pretty minimal (foundation, a little bit of blush,...
So I just spoke with our hotel. We have 5 room still available for Friday night and 12 for Saturday. The only people who have booked rooms include me, one member of the bridal party, FH's...
So FMIL is still trying to find her MOG dress. She's ordered a few online (Macy's etc) and has a couple of viable options hanging in her closet. She's still looking, and has some shopping trips...
What are you guys doing? Is it absolutely necessary? We don't have money in the budget to hire the DJ to start earlier (extra $250). I could negotiate with the ceremony musician to stay later,...
I know that they technically serve a functional role, but I have enough faith that our guests can enter a building and sit in a chair. We have people that can serve as ushers, but I feel like it might...
