Any advice on processional entrance music for catholic caremony. I'm looking for somthing other than "here comes the bride" did anyone do somthing more modern? Instrumental piano or guitar?
I'm trying to figure out my budget for tips. Our venue provides everything for the wedding in the way of food, beverage, furniture, linens, flatware, setup, etc. There is no venue fee. The contract...
The last wedding invitation I got made it clear they were having a cash bar on the invite. So my MOH and one of my bridesmaids want me to put "reception to follow with open bar" on the...
Hi Ladies!! I am so excited I found y'all. Hunny and I have been married for 10 years but have been through so much it's like we have been married for 40. So we started planning our vow renewal as out...
Anyone requesting no social media posts for Your day?! I'm requesting that none be shared of the ceremony, but can for the reception. Am I being selfish?
I know this has been discussed multiple times before, but I'm looking for new perspective. I can't decide on whether or not to invite my dad to the wedding. He's never been around, and my mother...
My aunt is a raging alcoholic. She is rarely invited to family functions but even those she attends she is highly inappropriate. (People remember he as the drunk lady from funerals who tries to get...
I really want to do 2pm because we are leaning towards a early reception ( 4-830 park bbq) and later party the night away with each other and few friends. We have a lot of guest who are from church...

Ours is a DW and the 2 photographers we have booked are located out of state. We have no plans (or room in budget) to fly there before our wedding to take engagement pics with them. So if we did opt...
Okay. So I honestly don't want a first dance. We're planning a less traditional wedding. However , my Fiancé has informed he wants a first dance. Now we're both huge Guns N' Roses fans and he thought...
Hi, I'm MOH for my best friend and she's having the toughest time convincing a groomsman, also the groom's brother to wear a gray suit like every other groomsman. The other two already bought gray...
Hi all, I've been lurking for a while, but this is my first post, so hi! I need some help figuring out the right wording for our invitations. We got engaged in December, and set a date for March 2018....
My fiance and I have been discussing whether or not we have to give titles to the wedding party. Neither one of us particularly want to pick a best man/maid of honor, but if we don't distinguish...
Quick question...I am tiny..5ft1" kinda small. I am known for being the smidge of my friendship group. Most of my bridesmaids come in at around 5ft9" ...Is it too bridezilla of me to ask them to wear...
We are having our reception in a hotel that also has apartments on the very top floors. We will be on the 2nd floor, open layout, with an elevator in the hall giving everyone access to our space. I...
Guys....two weeks out and I seriously feel like I'm missing stuff. Made the final payment to the venue, have a few signs to make and have my cupcake platters coming. Got a new card box and have our...
I've been pondering this recently as I sometimes read members posting about their "small" weddings of 100 or more guests. I'd be curious to hear everyone's opinions are on what their total guest count...
Ever since we got engaged, I can't believe the amount of people who have said to me "I better be invited!" Like even people that I never really talk to that would have no reason to be invited. I can't...
