I don't want to do anything overly cheesy. We are getting together for dinner and I haven't officially asked them yet but they know they'll be in the wedding. I bought mini bottles of wine and was going to write a card for each. We got our save the...

Is this a bad idea: On the invites say " Please RSVP on our site [site address]" and not include RSVP cards ONLY on a certain set of invites that are going out to our friends, younger cousins, and tech savvy people. Not the entire list. The others...

If I buy invitations, RSVP cards, and inserts etc. from VistaPrint, do I just stick everything in an envelope and send it along? Should I embellish them? I don't mind a little DIY but I cannot cut straight for the life of me and I for sure will have...

For two married women, neither of which changed their name, would I address an invite as: Ms. XXX and Ms. YYY or Mrs. XXX and Mrs. YYY Or is there another way? Thanks!

Ok I know this is a whiney, possibly irrational #firstworldproblems type question but I'm starting to get a little concerned. Maybe I'm overthinking it. I usually get one cold sore every 4ish years. Recently I've had several in the last few months......

A few of my friends use Rent the Runway to rent formal designer dresses and LOVE it. Two (which are two of my BMs) recommended I look into this for Bridesmaid dresses so that my girls don't have to spend $200 on a dress they'll never wear...

I was thinking VistaPrint for STD postcards but their sale ended and wanted to order today. GotPrint has a good deal...wondering if I should try them? Never heard of them so not sure what to expect....yes or no in your opinion? Thanks much!

I can't access WW from my android. At first I thought it was bc my phone is older (galaxy s3), but I've gotten other complaints from people after sending my website link. I also can't download the ap bc it is not compatible with my phone. Anyone...

Let me start by saying that when I get an invite/save the date, I usually put it aside or hang it on the fridge but forget to put it on my calendar. I also sometimes forget to take it with me on the day of so that I can have the address and info of...

I think this is a silly thing to spend a lot of $$ on, so trying take the most affordable route. Postcards seem less expensive than card envelope, what is your experience with postcard save the dates? Also, do you recommend getting a...

You have the choice between 8/27 and 9/24 in Chicago (burbs). Given the info below, which would you pick and why? 1. FH does not like hot days and wants to avoid summer (he sweats a lot) 2. The venue available in Aug is more accommodating than the...

I was a bridesmaid a few months ago and the bride gave us all jewelry. She was very upset to see that it had tarnished by that day - she bought them almost a year earlier from Etsy. I bought some jewelry for my bridesmaids from Express during black...

I'm in Chicago and having a reception in the suburbs. The reception venue is available in 8/27/16 but I'm worried I won't have enough time to plan. Right now all I have is a dress. I'm not planning on doing too much DIY (maybe invitations). Will I be...

I'm in Chicago, if that helps. There is a photographer i absolutely LOVE but she costs over $5k...over budget for me :/ so I called an old friend who does photography and his family/friend rate is around $3.5-$4k. Yikes. Is this...

Sorry...didn't realize intros were a thing (!) Hi I'm Lolerskates! I've never thought about planning my wedding until we got engaged so please excuse my innocently odd or naive questions if I have any. I am among the first in my family to be born in...

I was always under the impression that everything ceremony and reception related is covered by the bride and groom, including parking. Both our ceremony and possibly our reception (two different locations, still deciding on reception venue) would...
