Friend's destination wedding
RiceAndRoses in Etiquette and Advice, on March 9, 2017 at 7:37 PM

So, I'm not quite sure what's the etiquette for this. My friend is having a destination wedding at an all inclusive resort. She's a close friend so I want to give her a gift. DH already isn't coming...

Need help finding a photo booth guest book
RiceAndRoses in Planning, on August 14, 2016 at 1:41 PM

I've been trying to find a guest book for our photo booth---preferably one without blank pages showing guests where to place the picture and where to write the message. It's not that we don't trust...

BAM! BAM! BAM! *Pro pics*
RiceAndRoses in Married Life, on November 15, 2016 at 10:00 PM

I've been BAM for a while now, but I really wanted to wait for our pro pictures. A lot of our friends were in our bridal party, so we haven't gotten many non-pro pics. Our wedding day was absolutely...

Did you or are you preserving your dress?
RiceAndRoses in Married Life, on November 2, 2016 at 6:39 PM

I love my dress, but now that the wedding is over, I have to decide whether or not I want to preserve it. I'm kind of torn, because I feel that most people preserve their dress in case their daughter...

Not sure how much to tip our vendors
RiceAndRoses in Etiquette and Advice, on October 6, 2016 at 9:00 AM

I'm not sure how much we're supposed to tip vendors. I typically tip 20% but that seems kind of high in some of these cases. If that's what it is, I don't mind paying---especially because they're...

Hair up or down?
RiceAndRoses in Wedding Attire, on October 1, 2016 at 7:02 PM

Because my dress has an illusion back, I was thinking I should wear my hair up to show it off. I did my hair and makeup trial and had a side updo. But my friend came with me to my dress fitting and...

Cake topper with dog
RiceAndRoses in Style and Décor, on September 5, 2016 at 6:11 PM

We had our cake tasting Saturday! I've been looking for cake toppers with a cavalier so we can include/have a reminder of our dog in some way. He's a huge part of our lives. I found this one:...

Processional order
RiceAndRoses in Planning, on August 10, 2016 at 1:31 PM

Are you lining your bridesmaids up by height? Someone suggested "order of importance" to me, but that just feels weird since all my bridesmaids are close friends and family. ETA: We have 2 best men...

Completely freaking out right now
RiceAndRoses in Planning, on August 2, 2016 at 10:55 AM

We picked up our invitations on Friday and it just occurred to me that the printer left off the time of our ceremony! I checked the proof and sure enough it wasn't on there either even though we went...

What are you giving your bridesmaids?
RiceAndRoses in Community Conversations, on July 21, 2016 at 1:37 PM

I'm paying for my bridesmaids' hair and makeup (not counting it as a gift). I found a pretty bracelet they can wear the day of and after the wedding, and I'm thinking about giving them a robe, tote, a...

Hey everyone!
RiceAndRoses in Community Conversations, on July 29, 2016 at 11:28 PM

So, I never formally introduced myself! I stubbled on here one night in much need of advice and reassurance with some dress regret, and everyone was so great and inviting that I decided to stay I'm...

Brides with illusion back dresses!
RiceAndRoses in Wedding Attire, on July 11, 2016 at 8:46 PM

I was told by the dress shop that there would be a bra that would work with my dress (off the shoulder and illusion back). When I showed the sales woman at the lingerie store a picture of my dress,...

Nautical theme, formal wedding?
RiceAndRoses in Style and Décor, on June 14, 2016 at 2:01 PM

We're going to get married down the shore, so of course, we want to have some nautical touches at the cocktail hour and reception as part of the decor (thinking of beach badge escort card, table...
