I always dreamed of the "typical" large wedding, probably mostly because that's all I've ever known. FH and I have decided to have a really small town hall wedding and only invite immediate family,...
Hi all, FH and I are trying to plan our honeymoon: it will be the last week of July and the first week of August (we've already taken time off, we can't take it right after our wedding). We live in...
So we fiiiinally got our ceremony date and time allocated and now it's time to do our invitations! (and actually book ALL the things) Our wedding is in Denmark. We're expecting 8-11 adults including...
Hi all, FH and I live in Germany (he's German, I'm Australian) and while I think pre-marital counselling would be valuable I think FH would be VERY against going and involving a third party in our...
I've started reaching out to HMU artists and one has replied so far and said she'd arrive three hours before I need to get into my dress. Um... Three hours?!?! What's she going to do for three...
And I love it so much!!!!! I was so worried after the last alterations appointment (tonight was the fourth) but it looks so gooooood. I don't want to post a photo online before our wedding but just...
So I posted here about a month ago about how I went to a local silk flower shop, paid a (small) deposit, but felt like I made a mistake. I ended up cancelling with them (they gave back the deposit)...
We started talking about our honeymoon on the weekend. FH said that he was taking over at least the narrowing down options side of it and I was so happy and relieved!! Unfortunately he failed to take...
Today I went to two florists, one was super unhelpful after getting me to book an appointment a week later than I wanted it then saying "most of our silk flowers are in the cellar so I can't show you...
So my Mum's here in Germany visiting from Australia for two weeks (yay!!) and we're getting so much wedding stuff ticked off... Shoes done, dress ordered (!!!!!!), ribbons for the favour boxes, fabric...
I didn't even know this was a thing. My FSIL offered that I could wear her garter. I was emailing with my Mum the other day and mentioned it and that I didn't even want to wear one, and she wrote back...
FH wants to elope. I really want my parents there and his sister and her husband as we're very close with them. As we're then inviting people FH wants his Mum, younger sister (17), and younger brother...
I had an Oktoberfest event at work on Friday (I live in Germany) and the Dirndl I bought 6 years ago was very, VERY tight. I’ve been saying for years, since it’s gotten tighter and tighter, that oh I...
I haven't even STARTED spending money yet. My parents very generously put an amount of money aside for my future wedding a few years ago, and now it's time we're planning a very intimate (10 people)...
FH told me today when I got home and I'm so excited!!! His friend (a jeweller) is making it for us and I feel like it's been so long!!! It's only a month today since we got engaged and three weeks on...
I (28) left home 4 years ago to come live in Germany (though at the time was only meant to be going for 5 months... ah love). My brother (26) still lives at home but the house he and his FW are...
We're having a small wedding just with our immediate family (8 guests (plus 1 toddler)). Should we make invitations? I think FH would think it's silly but it might be nice to have as a keepsake? Also,...
Hey all, When choosing our (potential*) wedding date (21st June 2018 - 4.5 years together) it was off the back of a discussion where I suggested 21st December 2017 (4 years together) but we decided...
I'm Australian so the answer to that question would always have been my left ring finger. However, I live in Germany and my fiance is German, and here the wedding ring is worn on the right hand....
Hi everyone! My fiance (German) and I (Australian) are getting married next summer in Denmark (yay!). We're just inviting our immediate families - neither of us likes being the centre of attention....
