Honest question. Somebody asked me when I was having my bridal shower, and I hadn't really thought about it. I made a registry because TK told me to on my wedding checklist, but honestly I forgot...
Should I send save the date cards first or just the formal invitations? and how soon should I ask for an RSVP?

This is long and a bit tricky, so bear with me. We're keeping our wedding small, preferable no more than 60. My parents are divorced. My dad has 3 siblings, and one surviving parent. I'm inviting them...
So my officiant at my wedding was drunk is it still valid? Groom and bride were not drunk?
This may seem like a dumb question, but I don’t want to get accused of cultural appropriation, because that is certainly not my intent. 🤦🏻♀️ I’m not Hispanic, and neither is my fiancé. I also...
