Quick vent - why do guests want to wear the wedding colors?
The Sealpups in Planning, on August 26, 2019 at 6:18 PM

I purposely made sure my bridesmaids stood out. I'm having them wear a mix-match neutral palette and did not tell anyone but the bridesmaids. Knowing my FH's family, they are so stuck on bridesmaids...

Future mil is so "stressed" out over our wedding that she's not planning ;)

I have been the planner, coordinator for everything for our wedding. I am very organized, detail-oriented, specific, and on top of my things. Despite all this, I am stressed out but it's worth it. I...

The Sealpups in Washington Planning, on August 16, 2019 at 2:21 PM

I"ll be getting married at Villa Academy on labor day weekend. FH & I both went to UW - it would be perfect since the Laurelhurst neighborhood is near UW. Unfortunately, Suzzalo library is closed...

The Sealpups in Etiquette and Advice, on August 8, 2019 at 7:38 PM

I think my FH is being cheap but right now, we have less than 40 people at our rehearsal dinner. In our wedding party, we have: 5 groomsmen + BM (2 have wives + 1 kid - one of the flower girls) 5...

The Sealpups in Family and Relationships, on August 16, 2019 at 3:28 AM

My friend and I are getting married the same week AND we're each other's bridesmaids. It's exciting but the truth about our friendship is that we've grown apart in recent years. I think we do value...

What do you think of ice-breakers for the guests at the reception?
The Sealpups in Wedding Reception, on August 12, 2019 at 3:33 PM

I went to a wedding where the "release" to the buffet tables was done by games. You had to compete with other tables & buzz to see if you can answer/get it right. Table 19 buzzed in and got the...

More than half of our guest list declined...this is a good thing, right?
The Sealpups in Planning, on August 12, 2019 at 3:27 PM

Guest lists and RSVPS were the most stressful part of planning. FH & I come from asian families that tend to have 200+ of family, friends, acquaintances, co-workers, AND parents' random family,...

Have you ever had that feeling that someone wanted you to fail & in the moment, you're feeling brave & strong? Then the next day, you wake up feeling horrible. It's like those awful break ups...

The Sealpups in Wedding Attire, on August 8, 2019 at 6:23 PM

I'm looking for a head piece just like this. This is from the Monique Lhuillier collection for Pottery Barn for kids. I've seen a similar headpiece like this on her runaway from 2016, I believe. I've...

What are you thoughts with all these cocktail hour stations?
The Sealpups in Wedding Reception, on August 7, 2019 at 1:24 AM

My FH and I are planning to take pictures with our guests when they arrive for cocktail hour. Traditionally in our families, the bride and groom go around each table during dinner to take pictures or...

The Sealpups in Planning, on August 7, 2019 at 2:14 AM

We are planning to have our "thank you" speeches by 9PM - our first dance, cake and all that will be done by then. During our "thank you", we would like to do our "send off" with guests before we...
