mkalkofen, on February 1, 2018 at 12:33 AM

dj for just the ceremony?
mkalkofen, on January 25, 2018 at 6:24 PM

We're having a tough time with ceremony music. We have a band lined up for the ceremony (friend & a killer deal!), so we don't need a DJ. We were looking at ceremony music, but our options seem...

Anyone doing a Guestbook Tree? I really want a canvas one but I'm having a hard time finding a stencil for it. Any info would help.

Ashley, on January 16, 2018 at 1:47 PM

Desiree, on January 12, 2018 at 1:39 PM

Order of dances? The head table may have to be on the dance floor depending on final count to avoid putting dinner tables on the dance floor. Whatever might be placed on the dance floor would be...

Zola Reviews
Nikki, on December 29, 2017 at 7:42 PM

Okay I asked about registries the other day but Zola is still looking good to me. We are NOT using a honeyfund so other than that feature what are the pros and cons of Zola? Thanks!
