Activity for Kelly

I previously thought I would wear a red dress for my wedding, but now I'm considering a white satin dress. I would want to dye it after the wedding so I could wear it again. How do I go about finding a professional to do this? I do not want to do it...

I have many guests that will fly in from out of town. The hotel is 2 hours away from the nearest airport and there's no public transit. I want to provide a shuttle from the airport to the hotel. I'm planning on telling them to arrive within a certain...

I haven't seen recent posts about hand cancelling. Is it worth it? I know it's always a possibility that an invitation can be damaged, but short of that happening, do guests care? If it gets damaged I can always send another (I'm DIYing them). I'm...

I've never been to a wedding that didn't have religious aspects to it. What would a secular ceremony look and sound like? What is said? I feel very strongly about having a secular ceremony. Our officiant will be an elected official with no relation...

I'm having a full big band, 21 people in total, perform at my reception. I was planning on feeding all of my vendors, but the band coordinator said not to worry about feeding them. It's not like they can just run out and get fast food because there's...

I feel a little silly asking this, but all of the threads I've seen about processional music discuss modern music, sometimes with lyrics. I was planning on having all Baroque music with an emphasis on the trumpet for my ceremony and processing to...

I'm trying to keep the carbon footprint low. Food and drinks will be locally sourced and extras taken home, decor will be reusable, I'm not using real flowers, nothing is disposable. Favors are bottles of wine in glass, so they'll keep if guests...

I need ideas for what to put into a proposal box for a child that doesn't exist yet. I'm going to give the box to my sister (MOH) for certain reasons. I know it's not necessary, but it'll be fun for me and mean a lot to her. The other proposal boxes...

I have a jazz/swing band booked for my reception. I love jazz and am a jazz musician. My FH doesn't care about the music so it's entirely up to me. My MOH thinks jazz at the reception will mean no one will dance and that it's a terrible idea. What...

I need some advice/suggestions. We'd like to have a scrapbook as our guestbook with one page for each guests. Guests will take pictures of themselves (we'll have a photo printer) and design the page. There will be time and space for this. My concern...

Has this happened to anyone else? Vendors will reach out to me unsolicited (I don't mind that part as much) but won't reach out to my male fiance. Even when I reply with him on the email and explicitly say that we plan together and he needs to be...

Other than the wedding party and parents, I'm not sure who to invite. I know generally out of town guests are invited, but the wedding is in my hometown so most people, including myself, are from out of town. Everyone local is already in the wedding....

Where can we find a tux with tails for my fiance to buy? We plan on wearing our outfits again, so he should buy instead of rent. None of the standard places (David's Bridal, Men's Warehouse) sell the full tux and tails (he needs the shirt, waistcoat,...

Hi! We're using china and glassware for our sit down dinner. The caterer suggested hard plastic cups for the bar, but I'd rather use glassware. The issue is that we'd either need a lot of glasses (full bar including bubbly and 100 guests for 8 hours)...

Are we supposed to pay for out of town guests' hotel rooms? I didn't think so but the Wedding Wire budget tool includes a line for it. I'd need to redesign my wedding if this is the case because hotel rooms for everyone will blow my budget.
