Planner cost?
Ruthann in Planning, on April 11, 2018 at 12:15 PM

Hi! I was recently quoted 5,000 for a wedding coordinator, how does that sound to people? They are a team actually that so all the leg work, contracts, and day of coordination as well as design work.

Cruelty free beauty
Ruthann in Hair and Makeup, on April 13, 2018 at 9:40 AM

Hello all! I’m doing my own makeup for my wedding, partially because makeup is a huge passion of mine, and partly because I don’t think I can find an MUA who has only cruelty free products. My...

Hi all, I have really fallen in love with some looks from designer Alexandra Grecco. Have any of you worn her looks? How were they?

Any other keto brides to be out there?
Ruthann in Fitness and Health, on April 11, 2018 at 9:40 AM

I gotta say, even though the weight loss is good, the lack of cravings for carbs is an even better outcome of this way of eating, even though I've only been doing it for about 2 weeks. Any other...

Cake cost?
Ruthann in Wedding Reception, on April 5, 2018 at 4:08 PM

Just a sanity check here - is 1000 (including tax and 50 dollar delivery fee) reasonable for a three tier fondant cake for 75 people? 10.67 per slice seems kinda steep, but I'm not sure!

Negotiation encoragement

Hey y'all, I just had a lovely interaction with my prospective wedding planners. Their full price package is 5,000, which is average for that area. But in the WW spirit of "you might as well ask" and...

Standing ceremony?
Ruthann in Wedding Ceremony, on April 16, 2018 at 10:18 AM

Hi all, I’m having a small wedding of 50 guests and an outdoor ceremony. I don’t expect the ceremony itself to last more than 20 minutes, is it acceptable for guests to stand for that long? I really...

Venue opinions please!

So, we are having a destination wedding in Nola next May. I originally wanted to have a more traditional restaurant wedding in one of the French Quarter “grand dames” but then this venue caught my...

Nieces and nephews at reception?
Ruthann in Wedding Reception, on April 10, 2018 at 3:52 PM

Hi y'all - so I'm wondering about the etiquette of this. I'm having a "no kids" reception, however, my two step-brothers both have kids- one has a 6 and 3 year old, and the other has a 2 month old....

Two religions, two ceremonies...
Ruthann in Wedding Ceremony, on April 4, 2018 at 9:57 AM

Is anyone else having two completely separate ceremonies in two different religious traditions? My FH was raised Hindu but is now agnostic, I’m a non-denominational humanist Christian (raised pretty...

Anybody else not wearing a veil?
Ruthann in Wedding Attire, on April 1, 2018 at 5:24 PM

I’ve looked around and seen some pretty ones, but I just can’t see myself in one, especially one of those lacy cathedral veils. I am planning to wear a headpiece by Jennifer Beher instead, which I can...
