Don't want to pick a fight, just a question on etiquette. I have read on here that hosting your own engagement is tacky. Why is that? I read things about comparing weddings to birthday parties (proper...

BAM! I decided to write this down while I remember everything. In short, some TIPS, memories, pros, cons and overall responses/feedback from guests. I’m also happy that we will be going on our...

I thought I was bumping up an old thread but it's not showing up. I am looking into websites to create our own wedding album. So far I am down to Adoramapix and Nations Photo Lab. The software is...

Half vent, half question: So currently, we have been told that my FH's parents are not attending. They have been skirting around the "wording" but to get to the real point is, they do not support our...

Just a blah post. Just saw my brother's engagement shots with his fiance who is going to be married in 2 months and I must say I am totally jealous of their pictures. Theirs are tens times better than...

My brother is getting married this summer after our wedding and asked us if we would mind he he handed out invitations to a few people at our wedding. I have no issue with this since I know they will...

Last post was related to whether FH parents would attend the wedding or not and how his siblings were not even trying to speak to his parents about it. So FH went over to his parents yesterday and I...

For all those who have May 2017 wedding dates. Where are you now? This is what is left: - small crap like signage - finalizing day of schedule with venue and then providing this info to our vendors -...

As my previous post, my first tasting was hit and miss. Pork was bland, and fish was awful. The Chef invited us back for a free tasting of a redo of the Arctic Char dish. We also wanted to try the...

For those who went through this I assume this is normal. I'm impressed and happy that all of my vendors have contacted me (at least 1 month before the date) to ask for specific information, timelines,...

We had our tasting yesterday: 3 apps, 3 mains and 2 desserts. Very hit and miss and we are a bit nervous. The venue said to be completely honest. The chef and server came out after every course to get...

So far we have had 2 people (different culturally) ask us where our registry is. I think it's nice that they asked since they are considering to gift us. We did not set one up because we live together...

Fiance and I had a discussion about commonalities and how we felt blessed that we had so many things in common: financial goals, knowledge and spending habits, travel desires etc etc. I knew my cousin...

We will be doing placecards for our guests informing them of which tables they will be seated at. In addition we will have table numbers on the tables themselves. My sister said to have some sort of...
