Living in Australia we've had a pretty good response to the COVID-19 crisis though our vaccination program has been tediously slow. We've now gone into a 2 week lockdown due to 110 new cases - the government's attempt to try curb this before more...

Less than 6 months to our wedding and I have no idea what I will get as a wedding band since I have baguettes on the side of my pear shaped center stone in my engagement ring. If I can’t find anything I will probably end up redesigning my ring. Pear...

I want to be comfortable on my wedding day so I bought 2 pairs of gold flats to match the gold crown I originally thought I was going to wear (I have sensitive feet so one was a backup in case the first caused blisters). I have now decided on wearing...

A friend of mine “Dina” has been with her new partner for a few months now. I still haven’t met him (though others in our circle have) but Dina is well aware that I will be inviting her partner to my wedding as her significant other - when I told her...

I was talking to my aunt last night about my upcoming wedding and she suggested we consider having slippers given out during the night for guests to wear in place of their heels/dress shoes. She said she had seen this at a wedding she went to...

I had a MUA lined up who had been recommended to be by a few people and was fantastic at what she did, but I parted ways with her over the weekend due to unprofessionalism. She agreed to do the wedding in February 2020 before I postponed and then...

I have decided to have a Hora at our wedding because while I no longer identify with the religious side of Judaism I was raised with, culturally it is quite important to me having been raised Jewish and being of a Russian background. I think it is a...

What is going in your ‘day of’ bag for the wedding (i.e. bandaids, bobby pins) and who is responsible for it (including things like your phone)? I am thinking of possibly giving this all to my mother (who is on the bridal table with us) since she...

My makeup artist is a distant family friend who used to do makeup full time but now does it solely as a side hustle on occasion as she has 2 children under 3. Her work is beautiful but I’m a little bit iffy as to whether or not I replace her as a...

Our wedding is on a Sunday but I know for certain I will take time off work from the Thursday onward because we have a bit of running around to do (Thursday pick up suits/drop off place cards, Friday fake tan and nails, rehearsal plus family...

Our invitations are generally being addressed in the form of ‘Mr John Doe and Mrs Jane Doe’ (as applicable) or to ‘The Doe Family’ where we are inviting all members of the household. There is one particular family I am stuck with – it is a...

My partner and I are not doing RSVPs returnable by post because frankly post is quite redundant these days and we know we'd be spending hundreds on pre-stamping our RSVP cards only to have a handful actually mailed back - after all, all our guests...

We will be giving out as many wedding invitations as we can by hand/in person (quite a cultural thing) and the rest will be mailed by post. What I am wondering, for those of you who have already given out your invitations, for the invitations you...

Our wedding was originally due to take place in Dec ’20 but was postponed to Dec ’21 due to COVID. There are a few people on our original guest list who we are no longer close to and wouldn’t want to invite, but the kicker is, these people originally...

I work in a very small office with two colleagues (one of them being my boss) and I don’t see either of them outside of work, though I am closer to one than the other. I’m struggling as to whether I invite them to my wedding or not, after all, I...

I got delayed in ordering invitations because of a few things but now I’ve gotten around to it, I’m torn as to which to pick!! Our florals match that in the coloured invitations, but I think the gold and black invitations look so elegant and crisp....
