I am completely mortified. A few people have sent us checks prior to the wedding and we have sent thank-you cards to each of them. However, two of the checks have gone missing. FH and I have scoured...

How would you properly word that children are not invited to the wedding? My fiancé and I have friends with children, but we are not inviting the kids just because it will all add up very quickly....

So FH and I live in NYC and our wedding will be close to home, we will have very few OOT guests, but could someone breakdown the whole 'block of rooms' junk for me? I am very confused by it. Is it...

I only have a MOH and one bridesmaid. My bridesmaid is very arrogant, a real know it all. I am aware of this because we're friends, but with wedding planning starting, it has become intolerable. She...

I am wondering if anyone else has done/is doing a rectangular "horseshoe" design of long banquet-style tables for your reception? We plan to do this, and we will be seated at the top of the horseshoe....

So I just noted the Friday the 13th post and a lot of people have gripes about Friday weddings. I'm having a Friday wedding, and it's too late for me to turn back. Can you share with me your thoughts...

A good friend recently asked me to be her bridesmaid and I said yes, of course. She followed up by saying that my husband (married for 7 years) is not invited because their wedding will be small and...

Has anyone ever heard of a ring warming 'ceremony' as the guests walk in the chapel? I read about it online, about how a hostess or someone monitors the rings, but as guests walk in they are handed...

So I was on my way home from work today and was listening to the radio and the guy was talking about how he heard about a lady who went to a co-workers wedding a few months ago and and gave her money...

As a bride? As a guest, do you expect to see the couple cutting the cake? We aren't having cake (we're having donuts, the only cake we like is funfetti) and therefore not cutting a cake. My brother,...

Any suggestions I need help finding the right song. My father and I only became close when my son was born 10 years ago prior to that we had no relationship, no hugs, no talks so the songs I'm finding...

I am very close to my dad, but won't be having him walk me down the aisle. Instead, I'm walking myself down the aisle. I'm not sure why I feel so strongly about this, but it is just what feels right...

Can a 10 year olds flower girl dress be one of the colors of wedding party?

Apparently having a wedding hashtag is a must nowadays with social media such as Facebook and Instagram. I noticed that couples usually have really clever hashtags, but I can't think of any. I need...

Our niece will be the flower girl at our wedding. We wouldn't want anyone else. I just want her to look adorable (as always) and have the title of flower girl. I originally thought of having her in a...
