No rehearsal, meet up instead
pammat in Etiquette and Advice, on May 16, 2017 at 8:58 AM

So our budget doesn't allow for a fully hosted rehearsal dinner. (Well, not if you include out of town guests, which we definitely want to do.) I'd seen cocktail hour meetups mentioned as an...

So I spent this past week hunting down the renegade non-RSVPers. 2 of them were my bridesmen. I hunted them down and was like, "You guys ARE coming, right?" And the one responded, "Bitch, we're...

RSVPs -- sometimes you gotta laugh
pammat in Community Conversations, on September 22, 2017 at 11:30 PM

WTF. (This is my brother, BTW. I emailed him to say his rsvp was a trifle ambiguous.)

Just another RSVP RANT
pammat in Etiquette and Advice, on August 31, 2017 at 10:57 PM

Never thought it would happen to us...but it did. 2 people invited...3 on RSVP. Of the 110 people we invited, I don't know 6. They're FMIL's cousins and their spouses, invited at FMIL's request. And...

Wedding FAQs?
pammat in Etiquette and Advice, on August 22, 2017 at 1:31 PM

So I'm considering adding a FAQ section to our website. What questions do you want answered when you get invited to a wedding?

UPDATE Vent -- hoisted by the heteronormativity petard

I was so happy to order part of my gift to my bridesmen: a cocktail set in an engraved wooden box. (The other part will be some amazing bourbon to go with said set.) (They're a couple.) I placed the...

Black tie guest at a non black tie reception
pammat in Etiquette and Advice, on August 6, 2017 at 6:25 PM

So I've seen a lot of posts with people worried about guests wearing too casual attire at their receptions. I just had the opposite problem crop up. A guest just mentioned that he needed to get...

Got our invites today and couldn't be happier with them. They're simple and fun, exactly what we want our wedding to be. Share yours?

Here's a dumb question
pammat in Etiquette and Advice, on July 25, 2017 at 9:00 PM

So FH and I were discussing the ceremony and who does what when. He's like so the BM does something with the rings, right? And I confirmed that and said he'll have them in his pocket. But...when...

Older but wiser brides?
pammat in Community Conversations, on June 12, 2017 at 11:02 PM

Just wondering what other more, um, mature brides are finding different in the process, either from your last time around or from younger first time brides, Me, I had my first wedding 25 years ago, at...

Rehearsal Dinners...is it just me
pammat in Etiquette and Advice, on April 26, 2017 at 1:41 PM

Or is anyone else surprised/appalled at the cost? We want to invite out of towners plus the wedding party (of course) and can't seem to find a way to do it for less than about $30 a head. And...

Why is it so hard to get a response from vendors?
pammat in Planning, on October 12, 2016 at 3:56 PM

I've filled out webforms and emailed people directly (due to my work situation, telephoning is difficult) and I STILL can't get people to get back to me. I'm currently waiting responses from a...
