Floral budget advice generally assumes the wedding party will all need some kind of floral accessory, but FI says she doesn't want bouquets, just a few centerpieces for the reception (maybe 2 or 3)...
Okay, so technically I've been back on the forum while married for a while now... but now I have pictures to share. First up, I have the obligatory Will-Smith-pose-"LOOK AT MY WIFE" pictures. She did...
Hey, guys -- so our headcount wound up being 2 higher than I anticipated, so where before I was expecting to put 4 tables together end-to-end to make a long banquet table type arrangement to seat 16,...
Who's excited for latkes and/or sufganiyot? In useful information: I've just heard that if you're Jewish and you need Chanukah candles, you can contact your local Chabad house and they'll give you...
I was browsing Offbeat Bride's "Jewish" tag and noticed a couple weddings where they had music for circling, and now that I think about it, that does seem like a good idea since otherwise everyone's...
This came across my Tumblr dash and I immediately thought of WW, so here you go!
I've looked at a bunch of different ways to arrange mine, and I think the one that makes the most sense so far is to group them by the type of dance that's easiest to do to them, then sort by BPM from...
They asked if we had any favorite dishes we'd like or what we were thinking generally for entree options. At the tasting, they made us potato gnocchi with dairy-free pesto -- so good! and it looked so...
So it turns out we don't need to include an RSVP card because the one guest who might strongly prefer one won't be invited after all, and I'd been thinking our programs and invites were a little...
As of yesterday, we've seen all four venue options we were considering, and I finished running the numbers on all of them today. It so happens that our favorite venue and caterer is also the cheapest...
Since the last post with that call was quite successful and amusing *g* One of our artist friends has agreed to do our ketubah for a very reasonable fee, so now we just need to decide on our text!...
I've been looking into flowers for the last couple of days, and it seems like what appeals to me most is some combination of pink ranunculus, myrtle, and whatever else is in season and looks good. It...
Many of you have been privy to my venue-finding struggles, and some suggested I look at my school. I'd looked at the alumni center, but it hadn't occurred to me to look at the student union. Turns...
A lot of you already know, we're having maybe 17 people tops at our wedding. I'm still researching venues in case I can find something better than our backyard within our budget. I'm finding a few...
I'm still very fond of the idea of a tear-off RSVP card, so I'm keeping that from the previous version, but not much else. I'll put links to the images in the comments, not sure if links in the start...
I've redacted potentially identifying details. I'm not sure I like how much gray there is, I was thinking of switching out most of it for blue and making the text that's currently blue gray instead....
So you all know we were originally planning on having a dozen people over to our house, in our city proper. I've been combing through every venue I could find just in case I could find an...
I imagine in larger (like >=30 people) weddings, processional music serves as a cue to shut up, put away your phones, and start paying attention. But when a third of your dozen or so guests will be...
We got our save the dates from Vistaprint and were very happy with them, but for invitations I'd very much like to do a vintage punch-card train ticket thing -- a 4x8 flat card with a tear-off RSVP...
First, we get to meet with our officiating rabbi again tomorrow. She's pretty great. Second, my fiancee's dad's new wife (who was her friend for years before they married) is an amazingly talented...
