The Sealpups in Planning, on April 26, 2019 at 8:12 PM

The majority of our guests will be coming from out of town. Luckily, our venue is in a prime area for hotels. We'll be having our ceremony in church, which is 5 miles away from the venue. Do you think...

Our wedding venue is brand new, neutral area, light wooden floors, open windows, right on the dock parked next to boats overlooking the water near downtown. It will take place over labor day weekend...

How many hours of photo and video do you really need?
The Sealpups in Planning, on April 23, 2019 at 8:48 PM

Photos and video are important to my fiancé and I. Both of our families have been taking pictures and recording events since we've been born. With photography, we were able to get a good deal with...

Is it bad manners to invite someone to bachelorette/bridal parties but not to the wedding?
The Sealpups in Etiquette and Advice, on April 22, 2019 at 7:36 PM

My friend told me she wanted to invite my sister to her bridal/bachelorette and passively said, "so that means I'm going to have to invite her to the wedding?" I was honest and said, "if you want...

Have you been following the wedding timeline on time?
The Sealpups in Planning, on April 22, 2019 at 2:27 PM

Got engaged Christmas last year and will be getting married in September, so about 8 months to plan. All these timelines are showing me that I need to have most of my vendors booked way in advanced. I...

Can you negotiate with the videographer? How did you figure out how many hours you needed?
The Sealpups in Planning, on April 22, 2019 at 5:18 PM

We both want a cinematic style for our video. We met with this guy who was our potential. (Side note: we're getting a REALLY good deal with the photographer for 8 hours). Our videographer starts at...

What are little things you and your fiancé have argued about concerning the wedding?
The Sealpups in Planning, on April 19, 2019 at 1:56 PM

We are disagreeing over the cake Here's the thing - before we were even engaged, he would always say that it was my wedding, my special day aka he gave me full control. I'd always say that it would...

How can out-of-state bridesmaids help out?
The Sealpups in Planning, on April 16, 2019 at 9:18 PM

I'm a simple bride and don't really require help from the bridesmaids. 3 out of my 5 bridesmaids/MOH are from out of town. All I ask from them is to be there for my wedding and rehearsal dinner. One...

The Sealpups in Family and Relationships, on April 16, 2019 at 2:09 PM

I've written on this forum before about my future MIL, who is pushing to have her granddaughter be a flower girl. My fiancé and I have 6 little girls between us that we know. (7 year old, two 3 year...

Got engaged in December. I also graduated from graduate school in December as well. My priorities have been looking for a job and planning for a wedding. Now that June is around the corner,...

How often is "too often" to see in laws when wedding planning
The Sealpups in Family and Relationships, on April 11, 2019 at 8:58 PM

My future SIL is very attention-seeking and egocentric by nature... it's part of why we're not close. Around the time we got engaged, she had her first baby. I thought it was perfect timing because...

When do you ask the flower girls/ring bearers
The Sealpups in Wedding Ceremony, on April 10, 2019 at 6:11 PM

My fiancé's family all live so close to each other and are very nosy/gossipy by nature. My dilemma with flower girls is that I know SO many girls: Fiancé's family: Cousin 1: One 7 year old daughter...

The Sealpups in Planning, on April 9, 2019 at 2:12 PM

I'm asian and Catholic - therefore, it's assumed that my wedding will have 300+ people that I've ever known in my life (including my parents and their friends/acquaintances), Catholic mass that...

What do you think of flower babies?
The Sealpups in Planning, on April 9, 2019 at 6:12 PM

Cutting down to 3 flower girls was so hard for me because there were so many girls in my family, as well as my fiancé's family. Our final flower girls will be my cousin's daughter, my fiancé's...

How do you respond to nosy wedding planning questions
The Sealpups in Etiquette and Advice, on April 3, 2019 at 9:43 PM

I hate talking answering questions about my wedding. The biggest surprise is that I find that married people are the ones who pry the most. You would think they've been there, done that, so it doesn't...

The Sealpups in Planning, on April 2, 2019 at 5:56 PM

Did you relationships with your future in-laws change once you got engaged?
The Sealpups in Family and Relationships, on March 29, 2019 at 6:07 PM

I was with my fiancé for 6 years before we were engaged. We knew we wanted to be together right away but wanted to take our time. For me, I wanted to go back to school, grow as an individual and a...

The Sealpups in Family and Relationships, on March 24, 2019 at 2:35 AM

I'm definitely PMS-ing right now and I feel so sad & hurt. I promise, I'm normally a very understanding person and usually get over things quickly. With my bridal party - I am so thankful my...

How do you respond to in laws and their interrogation?
The Sealpups in Family and Relationships, on March 21, 2019 at 10:38 PM

I know the difference between people who are genuinely curious vs. nosy people. I have been with my fiancé for 6 years before he popped the question. His mom is very status-money obsessed; very nosy...
