How does everyone split their holidays between your family and your in-laws? I've heard spending holidays separately is a thing also... Just want to get your thoughts on how everyone can divide fairly. Thanks in advance!

This is more in-law related... Does anyone come from a really small family and struggle with the in-law family being really big? Whenever I go to my in-laws, I feel like I am about to run a marathon since it's a HUGE family. I am not used to this.....

Venting here... my dad has been complaining for MONTHS about how far the wedding will be from where he is and saying why we planned it so far from him. He keeps saying it's an inconvenience. He lives in Korea and we are getting married in Hawaii. My...

We invited 50 people and we send out emails every 1st of month to make sure we don't bombard their inbox. But no one has been responding.. I know this is a millennial thing but it's getting quite ridiculous as we need some info/confirmation from...

Has anyone honeymooned in Thailand? I am getting married in Hawaii but don't know if we should island hop for honeymoon or go somewhere else. We saw Thailand and their hotel rates are really cheap (TBH idk why everyone doesn't honeymoon there since...

For all destination wedding brides out there - how far do/did you book your flights? Wedding is in 6 months and so far no one in my family has booked their flights yet, including my dad.... I sort of think this is getting ridiculous as he keeps...

I've heard this adage saying "a son is a son until he takes a wife but a daughter is a daughter all her life". I think this statement has a lot to do with relationships between in-laws, family members, and husbands and wives. Once sons are married,...

I've read a lot of people on this forum responding to discussion questions with "if she/he's paying for the wedding, you don't have a say in this/that, you can't do this/that" TBH, I don't think that's true - while we do certainly have to be...

My fiancé and I visited his family home a few weeks ago. The in laws and I aren't that close but we (MIL and I) do talk when it's necessary, wedding related. When we visited FIL threw some shady comments at dinner table and made me uncomfortable,...

What is everyone bringing to their destination weddings? I am getting married in Maui next year in May. I am really scared I might forget to bring something and possibly having to fly back or buy something. I can only think of brining.. my wedding...

Hi everyone, just wanting to get an opinion on my FMIL wanting to host the rehearsal brunch. She has repeatedly mention how she's been wanting to host this - which is totally fine with me. I'm like you go girl, I am all for it. You do it all, just...

Hi everyone, I am wanting to do a really big send off where guests line up on each side and farewell to us at the end of the reception. I was hoping to do sparklers for guests but apparently the venue doesn't allow it as hazard.. Does anyone have any...

Hi everyone, Just thought to get some advice or what everyone thinks on this. I know for bride's wedding bands and engagement ring, usually FH buys them but I heard that nowadays, since the engagement ring is so expensive, the bride buys band for...

Hi all, So I've been thinking about how to mix my fam and his fam together at the tables but I am having a hard time. My dad cannot speak any English and the cultural difference is pretty big. I grew up in both worlds so I sort of have to play the...

Hi everyone, I have just been having unusual amount of traumatic experiences before wedding. Maybe I am cursed, I mean my mom passed away last year, and then this year in April, I got proposed and then I started planning my wedding a few months ago....

Hi everyone, I am wondering if I should invite my Mother In Law into the bridal suite while all of us (me and my bridesmaids) are getting ready doing make up and hair. I want my dad to be there for sure. My mom passed away last year and I was...
