So I was completely unaware of anything til I got a call the other day at work. One of my 5 bridesmaids called me and said she can’t afford to go to my bachelorette. She just put a deposit down on an...

Just wondering what wedding cliches are you using/avoiding? I love how weddings can be so different yet very similar. One that I am using is the sign "Trust Me You Can Dance-Alochol". I don't care if...

Explanation on how this came to be: I've been texting my sister (MOH) some ideas for my bachelorette party recently. But yesterday I sent a message on Facebook to my sister with a link for Vegas...

So we have decided to have a beer and wine reception. I HATE HATE HATE beer!!! so my beer question is super duper easy. should I get a keg? or cans? I think a keg is easier. but I have no idea how...

Our wedding was 9/12/09 and we had about 5 people who came to our wedding but did not give us a gift, not even a card! Did this happen to you? I don't expect something expensive, but at least a card...

My husband and I were married a few weeks ago in a very intimate destination elopement ceremony with our families in attendance. It was 10 guests total. Our photographer is a friend of the family...

So I've noticed, just like honeyfunds and cash bars, dry weddings seem to be a taboo for the WW community. Which is fine! I'm just having a difficult time wrapping my head around it. After some...

Hey all! I just recently got engaged and have set up a few venue viewing appointments. I want to invite both my parents and my FH parents to the viewings, partially because they are helping pay for...

I am having a buffet dinner at my reception and I am having about 15 tables. I was going to do a "trivia game" about us the bride and groom to determine which tables go up to get food. So basically,...

There are no issues between my fiance and myself that we are keeping our own names - in fact, we're planning on using my last name if we ever decide on children. My problem is, is that his whole...

My husband and I got married a few years ago, and while I am so thrilled I got to marry him, the wedding itself is an unhappy memory for me. We had quite a lot of bad luck leading up to the big day. I...

So I have no idea if this is a thing or not lol. I’m just curious. If you’re married and are in another wedding, like the bridal party, can you wear you’re wedding rings or should you take them off?...

I’m curious what others think about this. I’m not a fan of addressing things to married couples like Mr. & Mrs. John Doe, so if you are to address a married couple using both of their first names,...

Did anybody wear makeup at your fitting, is that frowned upon trying on the dresses? I feel naked when I don't have any on.

Would you feel bad if you were in a coworker's wedding in March and she keeps asking about your bridesmaid, which I havent asked them yet, but I dont plan on having her? But I do plan on asking...

I was definitely expecting stragglers with my group of friends, some of whom are notorious procrastinators (a part of their laid back charm). I set an initial deadline with a buffer for that reason....

Originally we wanted to do table visits during the reception but now I'm thinking it may take too long to do this. I don't want the guests at the last table to be sitting there waiting for us to get...

I'm getting married a week from today (yay!) but it still doesn't feel like it's actually happening. People keep asking me if I'm excited but I don't feel like it's actually in a week. When did any of...

I am attending a wedding this weekend in my hometown. Because both me and FH grew up in this area we have lots of friends here. We know some mutual friends of the bride and groom who were not...
