So far we have had 2 people (different culturally) ask us where our registry is. I think it's nice that they asked since they are considering to gift us. We did not set one up because we live together...
Is it rude to individually ask my bridesmaids for their sizes (S/M/L) for a button down shirt for getting ready for the wedding? Thanks!
So I get that a bar is expected to be available at a wedding. And a cash bar is just as bad if not worse than just having a dry wedding. What if the bar was limited to 2 types of wine, 2 or 3 types of...
I am having a small wedding and reception (40-50 ppl) at the same location. Most of the guests are ppl that we have both known for 20+ years and I am sure they don't really know a lot about proper...
So as my title says... I have basically lost all my motivation and excitement. Everyone keeps telling me I need to be enjoying this time but all I can think about is the amount of money that has been...
So in order to have our dream venue, FH and I need to plan it so that we host the bar for one less hour... We have three options to do this - we can either close the bar during dinner, not offer any...
So, I used to think my ring size was a 5 3/4 (which is what a jeweler told me in the past). My fiancee got a size 6 for this reason, but it was huge. I went to a jeweler to get it sized, and they...
I've had a couple of my guests on my original guest list get into relationships lately. It worked out that I could fit the extras on the guest list. I'm about to send out invites and wondered if...
So, I'm not quite sure what's the etiquette for this. My friend is having a destination wedding at an all inclusive resort. She's a close friend so I want to give her a gift. DH already isn't coming...
I don't know if I've mentioned this here before, but my FILs have been very active in the foster care system for most of their adult lives. Both my FH and his sister were adopted from the foster care...
I am MoH for my sister's wedding in June. The shower is next month and I need help with a game. I want to do the one where I ask the groom questions in advance and then she has to answer them at the...

FMIL and FSIL are hosting a BS for us in Chicago, where FH's family and friends of the family live. We live and will be hosting our wedding in Upstate NY. FMIL asked for our help in creating...
For my wedding we are doing a very relaxed atmosphere. We are going to have regular tables, some high top tables for smaller groups as well as a side area (like a bar that goes down the wall for...
Hi guys so I'm in a little roller coaster moment and would love your opinions. My fiancé and I recently talked and he mentioned that he wanted to invite the girl who was his crush for most of his life...
My fiancé and I are having a small wedding (40ish people) on May 4th, 2017. Only close friends and family are invited. My MIL wanted to invited 6 "close family friends" and was told no multiple times....
Well I consider this wedding related. I received a notice yesterday in the mail that I have been summoned to serve as a juror in my county. The notice didn't look that important and I'm surprised I...
Are these still a thing? We got engaged in my hometown with my parents (so cool) but I live in a different state-where my FH is from. My mom wants to make an engagement announcement in the local paper...
