I have about 20 out of state guests (My close friends and family members). We want to get married at a location that's meaningful to us, near my FH's parent's house on the river. This is where we got...
Have any of you had very serious fights before the wedding ? I’m talking serious like taking ring off and threatening to walk... granted there was alcohol involved, but still the topics involved...

I have no clue who to invite to the bridal shower and how far out from the wedding do we have it? My sisters have offered to plan it. but we don't know who to invite. We are lost on that as neither of...
Hi- this is my first post! My father passed away my junior year of college and needless to say, I was a complete daddies girl. It's been 7 years, I've made peace with it and am now happily planning my...
My dentist suggested I get 2 implants placed for my back teeth. I was born with no adult teeth in the back which is causing all my front teeth to shift. I'm freaking out- any experience and do...

Hi, all! I got married in July and I was planning to give my immediate family (mom, dad, sisters, stepdad, niece, and in-laws) a picture of us with each of them as a Christmas gift. My husband thinks...
My parents were invited to a really close relative's ceremony, but not their reception. Is this a common thing? Do they still bring a gift? Pretty awkward because my parents are really good friends...
So I am designing our invitations- ceremony will be in one location, the reception in another (about 20 minutes apart). Obviously not everyone who comes to the reception will attend ceremony, and I...
Hi! My fiancé and I are getting married in October of this year. Two of my aunts as well as his mom have offered to plan and host a bridal shower. HOWEVER, we are having a small, private ceremony with...
Hey everyone! I have been debating uninviting a couple from my wedding after having a pretty big falling out with them. I invited them when I was first planning my wedding and we were on good terms....
We are on a tight budget and we are cutting costs at every corner. I am preparing my wedding invites and strongly want to include our website URL at the bottom of our invites so we don't have to pay...
I found a venue that is also a hotel- almost all of our guests are going to be coming from out of town. If we book this venue (the rooms are included in the cost) how do we navigate giving the rooms...
I was told that it is etiquette to thank parents or list the hosts. My parents will be paying a large part of the wedding and my fiance’s mom and step dad will be contributing some also. His dad and...
My fiancé and I are making a donation to a cause that's very special to both of us, instead of doing favors at our reception. We plan to put table cards on the tables to let guests know of our plan -...
Hey everyone, my fiancée is divorced for 10 yrs now and has had no contact with his ex. She remarried the guy she supposedly cheated on my fiancée with , and they have two kids and live a pretty...
