I have the rooms for any of my possible out-of-town guests reserved, but I don't really know how to let any of them know which hotel the rooms are reserved at. A few have just asked me straight of...

I put a deposit down on my dress, but when I tried on the dress at the shop I did not try on veils with it. I know for sure I want a cathedral veil, and I am ordering from Blanca Veils on Etsy. I have...
My fiancé and I do not want any babies/children under 18 at our wedding. Most of our friends have young kids. If we allow them all to bring their kids to the wedding, we may end up with as much as 5...
