I need two witnesses and my officiant to sign my marriage license. Do we sign it during the ceremony? If we don't sign it during the ceremony when would be a better time to do so?
My ring is from Zales and when we moved I'm pretty sure the warranty paperwork got lost! Has this ever happened to anyone? Unsure about what to do
I hate the dress I bought and I don't want to wear it. It's non-returnable and alterations can't fix what I hate about it without redoing the entire dress, so I'm trying to sell it but then I realized...
We're getting 10k from each of our parents to cover the cost of the wedding. We're pretty early on in our planning and have only booked the venue and bought my dress so far. Both times, I paid myself...
Hey all! FH and I are flying in from CA next week to do our engagement shoot and take care of other wedding business. FH knows the area a little better than I do, but neither of us are sure where we...
So I have been researching videographers for the past few days that would work within our budget and have decent quality. I have (or maybe had) a budget of $1500. The original videographer I...
My partner and I keep going back and forth about the ring. I understand spending a lot on a diamond if that really means something to you, but I'm not sure if I really care that much about having a...
I'm in the very beginning of planning my wedding, and my fiance and I are having a bit of a disagreement, so I'd love some outside opinions. We recently moved to the D.C. area, and we are excited to...
Is anyone NOT having a seating plan? It's just not our style. We don't want to tell people where to sit. Just wondering if anyone did this for their wedding and how it turned out. My guest count is...
I have 2 sisters and I am very close to my FSIL so it feels impossible for me to choose between them for a MOH. My mother is asking me to name my older sister MOH because she is more likely to do the...
My fiancé's cousin and best friend had passed away almost 5 years ago now. He always wanted to have him as his best man but obviously he isn't here anymore. So he brought up having 1 less groomsman to...
So we are registered at BBB and I had my shower this weekend - only to end up with duplicate, and some time triple quanties of one particular item; also, recevied items that we didn't register for...
Please don't do it! I was at one yesterday where there was a full bar but the bride and groom only covered beer and wine. It was confusing to the bar tender and the bar tender seemed pissed off the...
My fiancé and I are currently living at my mom's house. She let us live with her due to having to pay for the wedding. I am wondering if anyone else is in the same situation. If you are, are you...
Has anyone experienced a future MIL who has shown no interest in the wedding? We're getting married in less than 3 months and her only concern was getting from NJ to MA and collecting the money from...
Does that sound weird? Can i do a sister dance or just not dance at all? My FH will be doing a mother son dance. I never knew my father and my mother recently passed..so no parents. My little sister...
After so many posts against honey funds is the money dance totally tacky? Please don't put me down for this. Our DJ has this as part of our reception & I felt hesitant about it but I figured since he...
Google searches haven't really helped finding the answer to this question. What age are your flower girls? And what would you say the oldest a flower girl should be?
So FH lost his job about a month ago, he got a new job but hasn't started his new one yet. But he will be making significantly less. We have cut back on the menu and in other areas but I think we...
My wife and I were married on 1/28/16. We were married by JP, in our dining room, nobody present. We told our closest family and friends after and we did this because of a very unique circumstance. We...
