RSVPs - why don't people understand them?
Sarah, on September 15, 2016 at 9:17 AM

Today my mom talked with her brother and mentioned that he hadn't RSVPed yet. He said "why do I have to RSVP, you know I'm coming. I even got my plane ticket." First, he's never actually told me he...

Vendor meals necessary with a buffet?
Elaine778, on September 15, 2016 at 10:37 AM

Do we need to provide designated vendor meals if we're having a buffet? I'm thinking of ordering our exact guest count, 95, and hoping the extra margin or the portions for no-shows covers our 5 vendor...

How long does the Virginia ABC liquor license take to be approved?
Elaine778, on September 12, 2016 at 5:56 PM

My venue requires a liquor license, even though I don't think it's necessary based on the requirements from the Alcoholic Beverage Control's website. The website says to apply at least 12 days before...

No guest photos during aisle walk only?
Elaine778, on September 5, 2016 at 6:38 PM

Would it be weird to have my officiant tell guests to refrain from taking photos during the walks up and down the aisle? I think it would be annoying for me and the wedding party to see cell phone...

Are dress vendors intentionally misleading about sizes?
Elaine778, on August 17, 2016 at 9:16 PM

I was shown the manufacturer's measurements (at the salon owned by the company) when I ordered my dress, but my dress came in noticeably larger than that. I was in between sizes, and the associate...

Too many appointments the morning of?
Elaine778, on July 19, 2016 at 7:32 PM

I only have two appointments, but the distances between both and my venue are fairly great. My plan was to save money and book the vendors I want, but I'm wondering if this will turn into a logistical...

Terrible makeup trial, redo engagement shoot?
Elaine778, on June 12, 2016 at 10:33 AM

My makeup trial was terrible. I looked like an unrecogizable clown. Unfortunately, my planner told me it would be a good idea to get the trial on the same day of my engagement shoot. She had been the...

Hiring a calligrapher is also impersonal?
Elaine778, on May 30, 2016 at 3:48 PM

The comment section of the following article brings up the point that hiring a calligrapher to address your invitation envelopes is no more personal than printing out labels. After all, the...

Birth control questions
Adri.Reilly, on May 14, 2016 at 5:47 PM

Okay so my FH desperately wants me to go on birth control but I am worried about the side effects. I've looked up other options and I really do not want an IUD anyone on topical? Or have any other...

Kelly, on May 6, 2016 at 2:59 PM

Did anyone successfully order bridesmaids dresses online? What sites are good? I don't want my girls to spend a fortune on their dresses.

Jewelry suggestions with this dress?
Elaine778, on February 28, 2016 at 2:26 PM

Hello. What necklace and earrings would go well with this dress? I was thinking dangling pearl earrings and perhaps a pearl necklace. The top has a lot of beading, and so the classic diamond-type...
