So my FH and I keep going back and forth on whether we should have a dry wedding or not. Our problem is that about 60% of the guest list (mom's side) are all mormon. Obviously they do not drink, and a...
What would you all do if you asked someone to be a bridesmaid, but you’re now growing a dislike for that person... do you suck it up or do you disinvite?
So we invited this old coworker because at the time she was dating a groomsman. I’ve never really disliked her or liked her. We spoke at work and we’re friendly but outside of that, not really...
My sister is not a bridesmaid in my wedding. She has not been a solid part of my life the last 8 years. We are not close, I barely hear from her, I am lucky to get a text response 3-4 days after I...
I am a bridesmaid in my best friend’s wedding and want input from brides-to-be: If my pregnancy continues, I will be due two weeks after her wedding in Mexico (we live in the US). This would be my...
We started with a list of almost 300 people and had to cut it down to 150 which was tough. We addressed envelopes to exactly who was invited. If there is a gf, or bf of less than 6 months, they don't...
There are a million posts about father-daughter dance songs, but I rarely see any about mother-daughter dances. I get it, the tradition and all, but are any women here planning on doing a spotlight...
All of our guests will be staying in hotels (with the exception of maybe 5 people). We are not doing welcome bags as we did not factor it into our budget, and all information that would be included in...
Engagement pics...what's really the point of having them done? I just don't get the reason for them. Why not just save your money and get more wedding pics??! Someone PLEASE explain to me the point of...
I need a little advice. Let me preface this by saying this is my last resort option, but will do it if necessary. Long story short, My sisters (3 of them) and I used to be close. We weren’t best...
FH and I are paying for 80-90% of our wedding, so in our eyes we are hosting. We plan to give a quick welcome/thank you toast, but that is it. My dad wants to give a small toast too. FH doesn't like...
Hello! Not sure how to handle this potential situation. I’m having my wedding in Cabo & have blocked off 25 rooms at the resort. In the case that a guest decides not to stay at the same resort,...
Hi all! Wondering what the proper etiquette is if friends and family have the bridal shower gifts shipped to me. Most of them are going to be at the shower and entered their own addresses when they...
Ok the venue we settled on already has a area set up for bride/groom with wedding party to be seated for repception and im wondering if its a good idea to have wedding party seated with us cause 2 of...
Some may remember I was B-listed for a coworkers wedding. I honestly don't mind, I was surprised I was invited at all, we don't really talk&I'm her superior. Not the point of the story but I wanted to...
Hello all! My fiance and I are planning our dream winter wedding that will be happening in January! I had a great idea to have his little sister (who is 14) help our flower girl (who is 2) down the...
My guest list is getting out of hand. My family on my dad's side is huge (6 aunts and uncles with 16 cousins who are 90% married with multiple children). I was lamenting to a friend about this, and...
This may seem like dumb question. But I really don't know what you are "suppose" to do with your engagement ring during the ceremony. Help!
Hey guys so I am having so much trouble with picking my walking down the aisle song. I found the song that I absolutely loved, cried a little when I heard it and knew this was the song I wanted and...
