Hey everyone! I don't know if this is a stupid question, I apologize if it is, but we're leaving for our honeymoon in less than 48 hours and there is NO way I'll be able to finish all of our thank you...

Hi everyone! One week from today we're getting married, woohoo!! We're wondering about favors that would double as place cards (a "key" bottle opener). We'd tie the tag with the names and seating to...

Place Card Names
OnTheWayToMrsA in Etiquette and Advice, on August 7, 2017 at 1:07 PM

Hi everyone! I'm just wondering about the proper way to fill out place cards for seating. Do we write out both names for married couples or just "Mr. & Mrs. X?" If the latter, I have a tricky...

OnTheWayToMrsA in Wedding Attire, on July 28, 2017 at 7:06 PM

Hi everyone. I finally had my hair and makeup trial today. I literally NEVER wear makeup so I feel extremely uncomfortable ("like a clown"), but everyone keeps saying it looks perfect. The issue is...

RSVP Concerns/Vent
OnTheWayToMrsA in Planning, on July 15, 2017 at 9:11 AM

Hi all. I'm having the same RSVP concerns that I see so many others having, so at least I know it's normal, but it doesn't help me not freak out. Of 196 invited guests, we've heard back from...

Rehearsal Dinners
OnTheWayToMrsA in Etiquette and Advice, on July 9, 2017 at 10:17 PM

Are rehearsal dinners necessary? I've been thinking of it as more of an opportunity to say thank you to our BP, give them their gifts, and rehearse a little (or at least discuss it), but he thinks...

Kids at the wedding.. did I mess this up?
OnTheWayToMrsA in Etiquette and Advice, on June 25, 2017 at 1:59 PM

We wanted a childless reception, but FH wanted his niece (4) and nephew (1.5) in the ceremony, so they are now allowed to attend the reception if their parents (in our bridal party) want them to. We...

OnTheWayToMrsA in Etiquette and Advice, on June 13, 2017 at 11:38 PM

I feel like this may be a silly question, but I don't actually know the answer. My shower is this weekend and a few people can't make it. They sent gifts to my mom and asked that she bring them to the...
