I will be planning my bachelorette alongside my BMs (family members) since I know my crowd more than them. There are 2 ideas we are currently tossing up doing and I would love some input on which to...

Later this year, FH and I are attending a relative’s destination wedding. I have calculated that between fuel, accommodation and food costs, we will be spending upwards of $600 attending. Each...

I have hired two cars for my wedding; the first is a 12 seater stretch limo for my side of the family (there are 11 of us) and the second is a 7 seat Mercedes van for my fiancé and his family (there...

Our reception will kick off at 6pm with cocktails and canapes followed by the first course of dinner at 7pm and the second course at 8pm (dessert served later). When guests take their seats we will...

FH is not huge on dancing while I love it dearly. I suggested that we take some dance classes pre-wedding to help him get more into the groove of things so he’d feel more comfortable dancing at our...

FH and I will have our first look and some pre-ceremony photos taken with our bridal party at around 3pm-4:30pm on the day of our wedding. Our ceremony starts at 5pm so we will have a little bit of...

How many people from your guest list came to your ceremony? I want to have a separate ceremony because my reception venue can only fit 60 people seated for a ceremony and when I have thought of moving...

We have 1 hour between our ceremony and reception (same location) to take photos with our photographer. I don't want to do photos before hand because of the whole bad luck thing/the timing would be...

I have decided to proceed with the large, formal wedding I originally planned for my wedding on 12 December 2021. I would love some input as to whether I have my ceremony in the same location as the...

I've always fluctuated with my weight and unfortunately despite being very happy with my body when I got engaged in December 2019, COVID 19 + losing my job resulted in gaining 10-15kgs so I am now 10...

My whole life I anticipated having a big white wedding. I got engaged and FH and I booked exactly that, a black tie extravaganza with all the bells and whistles. COVID hit and we postponed a year and...

FH and I postponed our December 2020 wedding to December 2021. We are not sure whether the COVID restrictions in our area will lift by the time of our postponed wedding so we have decided that in the...

No matter what, whether you tell guests no gifts, direct guests to a gift registry, or have a wishing well, at each wedding there is bound to be a gift given to the couple which was not asked for -...

FH and I were due to marry last December but postponed our wedding to December 2021 due to COVID. We didn’t make any changes to our plans other than the date, meaning that on 12 December 2021 we are...

I come from a tight knit family and we all love spending time with one another. Sadly, my grandmother (GM) has recently decided to stop speaking to my mother (M) and cut her off. GM and M have always...

Our wedding is on a Sunday night and I am hoping to do a ‘recovery brunch’ with my and FH’s families on the Monday morning. FH’s family all live out of town so brunch would also act as a farewell...
