My FMIL did a lot of wedding photography planning for us. I think most of this is because she ran into our photographers at family events. (my fh cousin is a photographer in our area) This planning...

Back story: My FH's cousin is a photographer in our area so we decided to get his cousin for our wedding. My FH contacted her & left her a message. She had not responded because she had seen my FMIL...

At this point we have decided to not do save the date. But some times I feel as though I am the only bride not doing them. Any body else decide to not do save the dates?

Does my FMIL live on google? It seems almost every time I suggest something to my FH he goes my mother saw or suggested something like this? Then I google it to see what it was. I am not sure when...

Has any body spoke to their photographer about their first look & how it will be done? Or have any brides who have done their first look tell me how it was done? I have no spoken to my photographer...

Has any body showed their ideas to ppl & have them be hated? I have shown my two wedding hair ideas to be & have had a lot of hated. Some did like them mind you. It was like a 50 percent loved them &...

I realize this is a pointless post because not all people do engagement photos. But when did you take them, fall, winter, spring, or summer. Are still not sure the type we want fall or winter? Any...

We initially decided we did not want a candy bar for a few reasons: space, cost, & I do not care about it enough to organize it.But my mother thought it would be so great & not a big deal to organize....

My mother has been very generous with listening to my wedding plans & also with offering to help pay for some expenses. She suggested a candy bar. We said sure. Now she says people will not eat the...

I am undecided on what I should feed my guest. I am on a budget. Our guest would be considered low maintenance or laid back people who are use to going to wedding receptions without any food (just...

So when we got engaged I tried to include my MFIL in the ideas & suggestions. What I found was happening is that she would take my ideas & come back with: We are not going to do that! I or we are...

What flavours did you do with? We have to decide to stick with van & choc or do we go wild & add flavours like carrot cake & red velvet? Did you go with fun flavour? If so did they get eaten or go to...

My plan was to have my bridal party & a few close people who helped over to our house for supper as the rehearsal dinner. Not sure what food or anything yet. But the more I read the forums I see...

Here is just an interesting topic. My mother told me she attended a few weddings last summer & did not receive a thank you card. She did in fact bring a gift (cash) She told me to make sure we gave...

Apparently if I want my bridal party to have hair & make up done it is polite for me to pay for it. The issue that I am having is that my bridal party consists of MOH & bridesmen. I have asked my...

Any body out there wearing converse or sneakers on their bid day? I do not wear heels EVER! I do not want to go from heels to flats because I think it would ruin my dress. I would need it shorted 4...

My mother decided she wanted to wear a cobalt blue dress to my wedding. She showed me pictures of dresses she would like. The style she wants is amazing the colour is really bright. Our wedding...

The one thing I notice is people giving advice not to worry or let somebody do what they like. You can not control what a guest or family member does. But if it bothers you speak up but try to do it...

I'm just curious did any body get annoyed with the planning & go away instead?
