Debating on whether or not to do a first look. I like the idea of getting all the photos out of the way first, but also like the idea of the "big reveal"!

First I’ll admit I’m really having a hard time getting over this ... so please help me with your opinions, or at least hear me vent a little? At our daughter’s wedding this past weekend, I was quite...

My fiancé and I have the same birthday, October 24th, just three years apart. We are so excited because it falls on a Saturday this year, and we are getting married that day as well! I’m wondering if...

Hey ladies! So this is my first time posting in the forums and I was so hesitant to do so, but I need some advice. My Maid of Honor and my bridesmaids have not been a part of the wedding planning...

Is it really that necessary to have it at cocktail hour and the reception? I'm not a big fan of it whether it's Moet or a cheap-o bottle at the store. =\ I just don't want it to be missed by guests.

My fiancé and I have decided we are going to do a ceremony only wedding. We’re doing a complete DIY wedding in a state forest. However I’m at a loss for words for the invites. We’re mainly inviting...
