Activity for Layla

I made our programs by hand with gold foil and letterpress… there are only 16 program but it took about a half hour to make each one. My fiancés best man can’t come anymore due to Covid, so he asked my brother to be his best man instead (they are all...

Since it's only 4 hours I assumed I wouldn't, so I didn't order anything. Is this okay? I will let her know to enjoy cocktail hour food with us.

The invoice has a 13% 'service fee'. Is that the same as gratuity? It's in addition to the venue fee. I'm trying to figure out who needs to be tipped from the venue- the venue coordinator? Waitstaff? Thank you!

We don't have an MC or DJ so I was thinking of hiring a day-of-coordinator. Our overall cost is 8k and her fee is $675 plus tip, so it's kind of a lot, especially since we've been budgeting like crazy since I found out I'm pregnant and we're...

My wedding is a week and a half away, and we’re only having 20 people. My sister tested positive for Covid last week, and my mom and brother were exposed to her. They are all vaccinated so they’re not quarantining, and my mom and brother might get...

Our officiant and photographer are semi-local (45 mins away, max), and we're having a micro wedding (20 people total). The photographer will be there for 6 hours (2pm-8pm) and the officiant will arrive a half-hour before the ceremony. I'm wondering...

My micro wedding (20 people) will be about 3 hours away for all of our guests (and some are coming from across the country), so I feel a lot of pressure to entertain everyone for the whole weekend, despite the small size. Our schedule is this: Friday...

We're leaning toward a strawberry-lemon-thyme cake, but I don't want people to not eat it. We have some picky eaters who might be put off by the thyme. It's a pretty plain vanilla cake with buttercream icing and just a hint of lemon and thyme in the...

I'm wondering if the following things would be missed by my guests if I don't provide them. I'm sick over how much $ this is costing and I don't care to have any of this stuff, but I feel like it's 'expected'. What do you guys think? - Day-of...

Not sure how to title this, but it seemed like Covid concerns were pretty low pre-Delta, spiked during Delta (meaning lots of RSVP declines and testing requirements pre-wedding), and then settled again after Delta and things have been pretty calm for...

I mailed out invitations last week and am texting welcome dinner invite today. In the text I'm going to ask people to RSVP on the wedding website, and include the link in the text. Do I need to explain on the website that it's a micro-wedding? There...

My venue is 3 hours away from everyone (it’s a micro wedding) and my fiancés parents offered to host the welcome dinner. If you saw my previous post, we did end up taking them up on their offer. I just can’t decide on which restaurant- Welcome dinner...

This is more of a rant than a question 😩 I had a budget of $10k and I’ve gone over it already, mostly because I didn’t account for hair and makeup costing &1,400 (for 5 women). I’m having a semi-destination wedding and I want to pay for my...

I’m trying to figure out who is going to play the music when I walk down the aisle (the music is on my phone and we’re using the venues speakers), start the music again when cocktail hour starts, announce that the dance floor is open/each parent...

My venue is 3 hours from me, in a remote area so I only have two florist options. One is out of my budget so I’m going with the 2nd. They gave me a detailed email at first and asked me questions, and told me since it’s now the height of wedding...
