A friend of the family was allowing us to host our wedding at their home, but it doesn't look like it'll work out. Does anyone know any affordable LA-area wedding venues that can comfortably fit 75-80...

We've had a few generous family members and friends send us wedding gifts. The only problem Is they're things we absolutely won't use and would clutter our tiny condo. None of the gifts have included...

You guys were really helpful when I needed to select appetizers a few weeks ago and I need your help again with finalizing the entree selections. We're having a small reception for 50 people at a...

...I have to let it out. My FMIL is hosting a shower for me. I was clear I didn't want anyone attending that wasn't invited to our wedding. The shower is Saturday, a friend just forwarded the evite...

I hope someone hasn't already started a thread for this week but...how goes it?!! Have everything finished? Feeling anxious?? I still need to finalize my timeline with our DOC and select our ceremony...

I just received an invitation for a wedding in August, with a June RSVP deadline. Why? Are they planning to B list people?? I'm curious to know the reasoning behind this but, of course, have no...

We are finalizing our menu for our small, restaurant reception for about 50 guests. Our cocktail "hour" will be short, 35-45 minutes. We plan on having three appetizers. Please let me know which items...

50 days until my wedding. This s surreal. Three weeks until RSVPs are due and we only have 25% back. FH anticipates quite a few declines on his side and suggested some B list invites yesterday to make...

...and when was your RSVP deadline? Did you have to chase down the majority of your guests? I know regardless of when we mail invites, we'll have folks who are too lazy to RSVP. However, there have...

Two-thirds of his side the guest list has the wrong spelling of the person's name, nicknames, or salutations were incorrect. Now I'm spending my Friday night cross-checking the names I can with...

So I plan to put in glow sticks/jewelry for all the kids, disposable cameras and iSpy for the older kids, and coloring books, bubbles, and stickers for the younger kids. Does anyone have nay other fun...

@Carrie's post about lost invitations has me nervous. I just ordered my invites and I think we probably have time to change the number ordered, since we haven't even started working with our designer...

FH and I are having a simple church ceremony with traditional vows and a reception at a nearby restaurant for approximately 60 guests. I have the important things covered: food, drinks, music, and...

FH doesn't want to do a first look. We also don't want cocktail hour to last more than an hour. We don't have a bridal party so that helps. But I'm worried we won't have enough time for photos of us...

FH and I have been struggling to find a venue for our reception after losing our original one. We anticipate ~65 guests. I visited a restaurant yesterday that works for our budget but there are a...

I'm debating whether to include street addresses on our invites or just leave it for direction cards and/or the website. In that case, we would only have venue, city, and state on the invitations....

It seems that most brides on WW have 14+ month engagements. FH and I are planning one in eight months, but it's for ~65 of our family and closest friends, which we think will make things easier. For...

So far we've been paying for things separately, but I'm starting to think it'll be easier if we opened a joint checking account. Thoughts?
