So, let's break this down... the current bane of my existence: Bridal Party Outfits. For reference, we do not have a ring bearer or flower girl. The girls (4 bridesmaids)... floor length plum dresses...
I had some friends recommend waiting a week to go on the honeymoon for things to calm down. While logistically, it makes sense (time to breathe after the wedding, opening gifts, visit with out of town...
We are getting married in September and would like to do a weeklong honeymoon in the Caribbean beginning the Monday following the wedding. Ideally, we would spend under 5 or 6k (after absolutely...
Has anyone ever stayed in the the all-inclusive El Dorado Casitas in Mexico? We are considering staying here vs staying at a Secrets resort (Akumel or Maroma). We've never been to any of them. I would...
I booked my venue at a small town community Arts Center and have been working with the center manager. When the wedding comes, is it customary to tip the venue manager? Do you tip every vendor the...

So. I have a friend (we'll call her friend 2) that I met through another sort-of friend (we'll call her friend 1). Technically, we all met because all of our significant others work together but I've...
I have sort of a two-part question... 1) If you have the option to choose your own caterer, how many caterers would set up a tasting with? (I know they generally charge per person for a tasting). 2)...

Would it be odd to have two male ushers ages 13 and 30? My little brother will be 13 (almost 14) and I'm not sure how else to incorporate him into the wedding...
I'm torn between options for head table seating... there will be 8 in the bridal party and 13 including all of their significant others. Then... I have a really overbearing mother who thinks she...
