1194 days agoI would like to tell guests that our dress code is black tie. My fiancé doesn't like this idea, but he'll go along with it if I really want to. He doesn't actually have a reason for why he doesn't want the code to be black tie. Our wedding will be...

1212 days agoWhen my fiance proposed, I had no vision for my wedding. I'd never thought about it or imagined it. This made planning difficult, especially because just about every article started with something like "of course every woman has fantasized about her...

1223 days agoAfter months of looking and trying on over 100 dresses, I finally found my dress! It's so perfect and I got it a discount because it's a previous year's design. I feel like a weight has been lifted. Also, my mom bought her dress for my wedding the...

1249 days agoI'll obviously be feeding my vendors a hot meal, but should I make sure they each get a slice of cake? If not to eat at the ceremony, to at least box up and take home?

1322 days agoHas anyone ordered flowers from JJsHouse? I'm not asking about clothes, but the consensus seems to be that shoes and bridesmaid dresses are fine. I imagine silk flowers are easy to do, so I don't think they'll be too bad. I'd love to hear from anyone...

1326 days agoIs it okay if we don't allow plus ones? Couples will be invited together, but anyone who isn't in a relationship won't get a plus one unless they're in the wedding party. I really don't want 20 people we don't know at our wedding because we gave...

1327 days agoMy dad died last week. I want to memorialize him and my grandmother, who died last year, at my wedding. Any suggestions? I have a rectangular vase that funeral flowers were in that I can use for him and a shadow box for my grandmother. I know...

1335 days agoMy sister/MOH is trying to get pregnant. She said something recently about possibly needing a maternity dress. I was going to have everyone get satin dresses from Avery Austin, but now I don't know what to do because they don't have maternity dresses...

1335 days agoMy wedding is October 14. We picked that month because there's an arboretum at our venue and thought it would make for some nice pictures. We also thought that summer was the most popular time for wedding. Wow were we wrong! Years out, we had vendors...

1349 days agoI want to share a piece of advice from my financial advisor. Instead of completely combining finances, keep them separate and create a joint account for you and your partner. That's what we do and it works wonderfully. We made a budget and decided...

1363 days agoI'm requiring mine 6 weeks in advance. This will give the caterer time to locally source food and for me to prepare last minute details, like place cards (which will be hand painted). STDs are going out a year in advance. I know my RSVP date is...

1412 days agoI have men in my bridal party and women in the groom's party. Everyone will match in color (black tuxes, burgundy dresses). Everyone gets to choose whether they want to wear a dress or tux. Dress wearers get to pick the dress as long as it's floor...
