Hi WeddingWire friends! I'm Meredith Hill & I'm tying the knot with my beloved in October 2019. He popped the question at the Bristol Renaissance faire so we thought it only appropriate to get married in a medieval themed wedding. He will be in chainmail, shoulder, arm & leg guards, a tabard & sword. The Groomsmen (3 of them) are going to be in chainmail, tabards, & swords. The Honor Guard (14 guys) will be in tabards & swords. The Honor Guards will follow me & my Dad down the aisle & sit at the ends of the rows. Then, when Dave & I are introduced as newlyweds, they will stand & make an arch with the swords over our heads as we walk down the aisle. I'm so excited!!!!

Happily married 🎉

Thank You Notes for people who didn't come to the wedding, but gifted
Private User, on November 8, 2014 at 10:05 PM

So this is a different scenario than people who came to the wedding, but didn't gift. I have a few people that sent a gift, but didn't come to the wedding. Obviously, I want to thank them for the...

We Did It & You Can Too!

We got married on October 5th at the River Forest Country Club. One of the most important things for us was finding the right venue. We went to a few venues before the RFCC but none of them had the...

Wedding Favors!
Meredith, on September 17, 2019 at 2:59 PM

What are you giving as wedding favors? I realized something I thought was really funny the other day; wedding favors are like goodie bags for all age groups! We're using shear maroon drawstring bags...

Hello ladies. I have 11 more days and I am losing my mind. From the beginning we have planned to have dinner before the dances and stuff like that at the reception. We are getting a lot of weird...

To Guide or Dictate (makeup)?
Meredith, on September 13, 2019 at 11:18 AM

I'm having trouble deciding how to deal with the makeup for my bridesmaids. None of my bridesmaids have the exact same skin tone as me so I'm not entirely sure what to say their makeup should be....

Too Many or too Few?
Meredith, on September 17, 2019 at 3:18 PM

Is there any advice you can give me, & everyone on here, about the right number of people standing in a bridal party? As we get closer to our wedding day, I'm worried that having just 3 standing...

Shoes!! Let's see your wedding shoes.
Cheryl, on September 11, 2019 at 8:25 PM

Decided after work today I'd go by our local shoe store to get an idea of what size heels I'd need. I know one pair I tried on when I got my dress was a 5.5, but all shoes fit different. I had no...

First fitting
Daiana, on August 16, 2019 at 11:09 AM

I’m so happy with the way my dress came out. It used to be an almond color and I switch it to all ivory. Loving it. Just a few more weeks and I’ll be wearing this again🤗

Veil, tiara, hair vine, hair comb, modern or traditional? What are you doing?
Elizabeth, on September 12, 2019 at 10:03 AM

I thought I wouldn't wear a veil until she put one on me with my dream dress. It really made that the 'wow! This is the real deal!' Moment. Until then I was just trying on pretty dresses. After that...

Wedding Rings - Splurge or Save?
Lynnie, on September 17, 2019 at 11:05 AM

Don't forget about the bling bling! Are you and your future spouse splurging on your wedding rings? Or did you choose something more simple that let you save a little? Are you splurging or saving on...

Flower girls & ring bearers
Meredith, on September 11, 2019 at 10:33 AM

Who here is having a flower girl or ring bearer? I'm wondering if it's ok for the pastor to have the rings already up there so we won't have to deal with kids possibly having temper tantrums. Is that...

An Ending to the Spending
Meredith, on September 13, 2019 at 11:22 AM

Is it ok to ask your bridesmaids to pay for their hair & makeup if you've bought their dress & shoes & have arranged to have hair & makeup artists come in? Things are getting expensive...

Seating Disagreements
Meredith, on September 10, 2019 at 2:58 PM

We're having 144 people at our reception. With so many people there, we can't have everyone seated toward the front. How do I deal with people who may complain that their not close enough, in a space...
