Zoe in Wedding Reception, on September 29, 2019 at 10:33 PM

How soon before the end of your reception is your photographer leaving? Mine is scheduled to leave at 10 pm (reception ends at 10:30) and I am torn as to whether I want to change her hours to arrive...

One of the groomsmen is a talented musician and will be recording my processional song to be played during the ceremony. I was not planning on doing wedding programs, mostly because the ceremony is...

Rehearsal Dinner Etiquette
Zoe in Etiquette and Advice, on August 28, 2019 at 10:24 AM

I know I am overthinking this and just need some outside perspective. The original plan for the rehearsal dinner was bridal party and plus ones and immediate family only. We have 11 BM and 11 GM so...

I need opinions please! So my engagement ring (the ring pictured below with the stone) has had to be repaired twice in the last year because the band keeps bending. I do not wear the ring while...

Processional Question
Zoe in Wedding Ceremony, on July 23, 2019 at 10:53 AM

So I think I may have committed the classic mistake of making decisions too early before I had a clear vision of what I am envisioning on my wedding day. Its been established that I will have both...

Unplugged Ceremony
Zoe in Wedding Ceremony, on July 10, 2019 at 12:47 PM

Who's doing an unplugged ceremony? Are you having a sign and/or having the officiant mention it? I have a note on our FAQ questions page and am debating buying a sign as well. In my mind it would be a...

Family Flowers
Zoe in Wedding Attire, on July 9, 2019 at 1:08 PM

How many people are you buying boutonnieres and corsages for (that are not part of the wedding party)? I read that parents (and step-parents) of the couple and grandparents were typical but what is...

Processional Question - Divorce Central
Zoe in Wedding Ceremony, on July 3, 2019 at 5:07 PM

What time does your reception end?
Zoe in Wedding Reception, on July 3, 2019 at 1:07 PM

Am I obsessing over minute details? Probably. My reception ends at 10:30 (5-5:30 ceremony, 5:30-6:30 cocktail hour, 6:30-10:30 reception) Is that weirdly early? When does your reception end?

End of the night question
Zoe in Planning, on June 26, 2019 at 1:35 PM

Our venue needs us to move all of the decorations out before we leave at the end of the night. Does anyone else have this rule and are you planning on just staying after with family to take everything...
