1740 days agoLong story short, I'm having a dry wedding. Mostly because we won't be able to afford all the alcohol & because the vast majority of the guests are not drinkers anyways. So we're doing water & sweet/unsweet tea. 70 guests, including myself...

1827 days agoSince mom & dad have been putting items in my Hope Chest the past few years, I don't *really* need much gift wise. So instead of a bridal shower, I wanted to host a Farewell Brunch the day after our wedding as a way to thank guests for coming,...

1843 days agoI know this is probably a "good problem" to have, but my in-laws to be keep paying for things. They've done catering, the cake, my dress, linens - it's just a lot. Not to mention the odds & ends she finds on FB Marketplace. We've been able to pay...

1917 days agoMy *brilliant* mother decided to go & tell my future mother in law something about my sister's in laws had money & paid for nearly their whole wedding (while they do have more money than my parents, they did NOT pay for "nearly everything")....

1971 days agoIsn't it usually at the ceremony that the bands are put on? What if you only have your engagement ring & no wedding bands at the time?

1972 days agoWhat is the deal with +1s? I'm sure it's NICE to give them, but is it rude to not give them?

1984 days agoI wasn't sure where else to post this BUT DIY forum because I'm looking to see if anyone has heard good deals in order to do some DIY. If I'm wrong, let me know which forum it'd fit better & I'll move my post. What stores have good Cyber Monday...

1994 days agoMy budget is getting tight. With everyone's Save the Date, I'm giving them a magnet with our picture & our date. Beyond small bags of candy, isn't that a wedding favor enough?

1994 days agoMy DJ's uplighting fee is $500. My venue is tiny & my guest list is only 50 people. I hesitate to pay that much, but know you get what you pay for. Has anyone done any DIY uplighting with maybe Christmas lights around the perimeter of the...
