Selling Your Wedding Dress After
Samantha in Wedding Attire, on December 23, 2021 at 6:52 PM

I had every intention of saving my dress for a vow renewal in a few years but it's too beautiful to be locked away in a closet. Does anyone know of a reputable website to sell a wedding dress??

Tipping Etiquette?
Samantha in Etiquette and Advice, on December 1, 2021 at 5:55 PM

We've already paid everything in full and are just counting down the days! Are you supposed to tip for vendors or is it just a recommendation?

Indoor Wedding Games
Samantha in Wedding Reception, on November 17, 2021 at 1:26 PM

In all of the planning I haven't really thought about indoor entertainment for guests after dinner! Besides the shoe game, what are some fun ideas that aren't costly but will keep guests entertained...

Veils!
Samantha in Wedding Attire, on October 17, 2021 at 11:53 AM

52 days until our wedding and I'm still indecisive about my veil. How long did you, or will you, leave your veil in before taking it off?

Samantha in Planning, on October 15, 2021 at 9:57 AM

With the exception of 2 guests, all of our guests will be coming in from out of state. Should we host a welcome dinner in conjunction to an informal rehearsal dinner also? Our wedding is very laid...

Samantha in Parties and Events, on September 27, 2021 at 8:58 PM

Our engagement photos are next month, the weather is dipping into the low-mid 60s and I have no idea what to wear! I'm not a dress girl, but I love boots, leggings, etc. Should I wear a sweater and...

Too much cleavage?
Samantha in Wedding Attire, on September 6, 2021 at 5:40 PM

Since we're having a micro wedding we aren't having a bridal party, only a MOH and bestman. I told my MOH she could choose her own dress in any style as long as it was red and didn't show boobs, butt,...

Entertaining Kids
Samantha in Wedding Reception, on August 8, 2021 at 7:26 PM

We have maybe 5 kids coming to our wedding, all under 10 years old but I'm coming up blank on how to have something to keep them entertained that's age appropriate. Our wedding is in December and will...

Slim Down for the Gown!
Samantha in Fitness and Health, on June 29, 2021 at 9:37 AM

Is anyone else doing a slim down for their gown?? I've lost 23 pounds and want to lose another 30 pounds so that I'm back at a healthy weight and look how I envision myself in my dream dress.

moh Help
Samantha in Family and Relationships, on August 1, 2021 at 6:34 PM

My MOH has been my best friend for a couple years now, but ever since we both moved (military) it's been a one-sided friendship. She used to keep in touch often but now I can't get her on the phone or...

Samantha in Planning, on July 21, 2021 at 2:01 PM

Someone I planned on inviting is pregnant and will be delivering a couple months before our wedding. We've talked about me inviting her and she hasn't outright said no but hesitantly said she wasn't...

Invitation Question!
Samantha in Etiquette and Advice, on July 20, 2021 at 5:57 PM

Even if it isn't expected we plan on having meals for our vendors (photographer, officiant, entertainment, and DJ). Should we send an invite for them to get their meal choice, and maybe include a note...

Samantha in Style and Décor, on July 1, 2021 at 7:25 PM

Does anyone have any suggestions for an alternative to the card box with a slot that isn't a lantern, birdcage, mailbox, birdhouse, or a small suitcase? Our wedding theme is Enchanted Christmas,...

Meal choices and rsvps
Samantha in Planning, on July 10, 2021 at 3:28 PM

We decided not to do room blocks and are in the process of ordering invitations and RSVPs. We aren't doing a wedding website either. Since we're having a plated dinner do we put meal options on the...

Welcome bags
Samantha in Etiquette and Advice, on July 3, 2021 at 7:53 PM

The more I read posts on here the more I wonder if we should do welcome bags for guests. We're still trying to work out room blocks before we send out invitations, but all of our guests are flying in....

Guest Transportation Help!
Samantha in Planning, on July 3, 2021 at 12:28 PM

I'd really appreciate opinions on whether or not what we're planning is the best way forward. No airports are near our venue due to it just being how New England is. The closest airport is 2-2.5 hours...

Corsages?
Samantha in Planning, on July 3, 2021 at 1:23 PM

My groom, his bestman, our fathers, and my brother will be wearing boutonnieres for the wedding but I'm confused about his mom and stepmom. I haven't seen a corsage that looked nice or held up through...

Samantha in Planning, on June 29, 2021 at 10:11 AM
