I'm an offbeat 40+ bride! My hubby & I designed an upscale DIY Pirates of the Caribbean inspired wedding in a Napa wine cave (then a 1960s "Rat Pack" reception in Temecula two months later). Amazing. Worth the wait to meet the right match; our wedding was way more creative than I could have ever dreamed. Happy newlyweds.

I'm thinking of not setting up a sweetheart or head table at the reception because we have exhausted our decoration budget. We will have 10 round tables at the reception and I'm working towards possibly sitting with our bridal party and family at one...

Hi all! Hoping you could give me your opinion on hairstyle for my October wedding? Here's me in my dress. I have extensions in so keep that in mind. Since we're getting married outside, surrounded by nature, and because I'm a hippie at heart, I was...

Western jewelry ideas? I bought some stunning sparkly and turquoise earrings for the ceremony. Would that be too gaudy?

we are having what I believe is known as a banquet set-up, which resembles a cricket wicket - 1 long bridal table along the top, plus 3 legs, kind of like an E. I hadn't planned on having table number at all, since there's only 3 tables and if you...

Hello! I am at a loss when it comes to wedding favors. I am going to have around 50 guests and am hoping to find something nice, but that's not going to break the bank. Our wedding is in December so it's winter themed and colors are red and silver....

Hey everyone!! Does anyone know a place I can either rent or buy inexpensive lanterns for our wedding? I need 14 and cannot find any place that has them for about $15 each and where I can buy 14 of the same one. I’m even trying to find a place to...

I’m an introvert marrying an extrovert who doesn’t love wedding traditions like the cake cutting and garter/bouquet toss. My fiancé thinks people will be bored with only drinks and dancing to entertain them. Any ideas for unique reception...

How many brides are worried about rain on their wedding day? My wedding is a week away and I have to say this is probably the least of my concerns. My wedding is an outdoor wedding, but cocktail hour is indoor and the tent is fully floored and has...

I thought the mashed potatoes served on martini glasses would look more elegant and would be less messy to eat but at the same time I love me some tacos! I wonder what other brides think about these two choices. What would you rather have at cocktail...

Hello ladies! I recently found my dress. It's everything I thought I didn't want. I wanted full lace, form fitting and long sleeves. I found perfection in the opposite, though. Now that the dress is picked up, I'm trying to figure out jewelry...

Hello, My fiance and I are planning on the family style reception food. We didn't know this was an option until our coordinator gave us the option. She said it's typically a big hit bc each table will get a little bit of everything to try. My future...
