Did he get down on one knee?
Pom, on September 12, 2018 at 2:53 PM

My fiancé got down on one knee to propose. It wasn't a fancy or elaborate proposal, but it evidently was important to him to get into "proper position" which was cute and a little unexpected lol....

Blush and bashful?
Laura, on June 19, 2018 at 8:34 PM

If you've ever seen Steel Magnolias, you know that Shelby's wedding was covered in shades of blush and bashful because pink was her signature color. You're probably not taking it to the extreme...

Jayla, on August 15, 2018 at 10:05 AM

Are you taking their last name?
Andrea, on August 30, 2018 at 2:47 PM

Upon getting married, how are you or ARE you planning on changing your name? I am leaning towards hyphenating my name. My FH's last name is Sandy. My last name is Williams. So, Andrea Williams-Sandy!...

No first dance
Pom, on September 12, 2018 at 1:57 PM

Hey guys. Our wedding is quickly approaching at the end of this month and there's one little detail that's been a small annoyance to me. Or rather, a couple of people have had reactions that annoyed...

To tip or not?
Ryan, on August 30, 2018 at 10:55 PM

Here's our wedding menu with prices. I was looking and I see that they add a 22% service charge, of almost $1,000. Even though it says does not include gratuity it still seems like a high...

Pom, on August 30, 2018 at 3:35 PM

What wedding trends are you just DONE with? Be nice, but honest! Personally, I'm over the whole Photo Booth thing. I know a lot of people still do it and I honestly couldn't care less if you do, but...

Real Candles vs Fake Candles
Connie, on August 28, 2018 at 10:46 PM

I love the idea of candles for my decor on the reception tables, cake and gift tables but is it tacky to have fake candles? I think some look pretty nice and it being flameless isn't a hazard so...
