We are going to book our venue today (yay!) and I'd like to know about wedding timelines before we go in. The wedding will be on a Friday evening, all in one place, and we'd like it to begin at 6pm...
Hi everyone! Our wedding was 2 months ago, and I know etiquette says I have up to 3 months to do our thank you cards, but I want to get this off my plate already. Long story short, I've been somewhat...
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...
WE DID IT!!! There was a torrential downpour all morning, 90% humidity, my beautifully curly hair fell right out to straight/wavy, our ceremony had to be moved indoors (plan b), and we were sweating...
Today (tomorrow?) is our big day! We're gathering our tip money and realized we don't have anything yet for our 2 photographers and videographer. My internet searches are giving me mixed information...
I got my nails and eyebrows done today, yay! 2 more days til the wedding so I might be posting here more than usual because FH is at work and I don't want to keep bugging other people with my...
Hi everyone! My wedding is in 2 days, ahh!! We just picked up my gown last night and I had a hell of a time trying to "fluff it out" (please excuse the mess), we literally had to move furniture and...
Hey everyone! FH's family owns a microbrewery and is donating some beer for our wedding (it's an open bar, otherwise). I'd like to make a cute sign to put on the bar because we're proud it's...
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...
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...
Hi everyone! For those of you who are already married, approximately how many no-shows were there? We had a venue minimum of 150 but only 125 are coming (we followed the decline guidelines of assuming...
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...
I had my first dress fitting today and it did NOT go well. I lost 30 pounds and was so excited to have it tailored to fit my skinnier body.. but I didn't realize I only lost the weight in my boobs and...
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...
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...
Sorry for hiding my previous post. I’m having terrible internet problems and had too many double posts. Gotta try posting on mobile now. We finally took our engagement photos last week and they're...
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...
I can't believe it's finally my turn to post a BAS! There was SO much love and thought put into everything, I feel so blessed. Our wedding will be a teal/aqua beach theme with touches of Harry Potter...
Hi everyone. We're taking our engagement photos tomorrow (it came with the package, we're using it mostly as a practice session at this point). FH is set on his outfit, but I'm not sure which dress I...
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...
