Activity for FutureMrsR-M

So I’m sure most of us have looked up stats on wedding budgets at some point. But what do all the numbers mean? I was recently doing some math review for a grad school exam and was working on a section on mean, median, and mode which got me thinking...

How old is too old for the flower girl? My FH’s sister apparently mentioned to him that she wants to be “the one who throws the flowers.” She’s 12 now, but when we get married she’ll be 14. I wasn’t going to have a flower girl, and instead I was...

Is scheduling a wedding on a Monday totally weird? We originally thought about having the wedding on Thanksgiving but now we are tossing around other ideas. A significant number of guests from both the US and Mexico would have to fly just because...

I’ve seen lots of pictures of gifts for the bride to give the groom or vice versa on the wedding day. Is this a typical tradition or is it another new trend to sell more wedding stuff? If you are doing this, what are you getting for your FS? I want...

Has anyone gone through the process of looking for hair & makeup artists and doing trials with them for a destination wedding? I could probably have my sister do it or even myself if I really had to, but my hair is hard to deal with. I'm hoping...

How much of a heads up do people need so they can adequately plan to come to a wedding? This would be both for guests that are local (less than 2 hr drive) or guests that have to drive quite a distance or fly. I know that for an international wedding...

I recently asked my mom and FH what they thought we should serve for alcohol at the wedding. My mom thought beer and wine would be good. My FH said beer and wine as well, but he also said that basically no one in his family drinks beer. Actually, his...

So my FH and I are inviting around 150 people give or take a few but we really have no idea how many will be able to attend. How do you book a venue if you don’t know how many guests will be coming? I could honestly see about 50 people turning down...

So my wedding isn’t until 2020, and I have over 2 years to plan for a destination wedding in Mexico. My sister very recently got engaged and mentioned that they might have the wedding as soon as this summer or early fall when it’s still warm in...

I was just listening to a wedding podcast I LOVE (Put a Ring On It) and heard a tip I had to share. They show hosts recommend removing any clothing item or accessories that dig into the skin like bras, jeans, hair ties around your wrist, on the...

Has anyone been a maid of honor while also planning their own wedding? My sister got engaged this weekend and asked me to be her maid of honor (and of course I said yes). She will actually be getting married before me too. I’m just curious what your...

Hey y’all, my FH doesn’t have a WW profile, but wanted to ask a question about budget. His question: “when planning the wedding, what things have you found to be more expensive than you thought or what items crept up on you in the home stretch that...

I looked at past discussions and there didn’t seem to be a whole lot on St Vincent and the Grenadines. Has anyone been there or is anyone thinking about going there for your honeymoon? The islands look gorgeous and they have most of the actives we...
