Ugh. I stupidly invited two of my older sister's friends to my bridal shower which is in two days. Unfortunately, Jenna (sister) forgot to fill me in that they hate each other a lot and will probably...
I'm wondering what everyone thinks: Our venue is about 25 minutes away from where the recommended hotel area is. There are some people who will be flying in from a different part of the state to...
My fiancé opted to leave his mother off of the program as she is not invited anyway and no one has a problem with that as she is an abusive and manipulative person and not a single one of her kids has...
Our wedding was 11/16. Our contract said we would receive the photos no later than 2 weeks. We received half of the pictures as a sneak peek 2 days after the wedding. I reached out to her Sunday and...
We’ve been together for 4 years, living together family for 18 months. They broke up 8 years ago. I met them on a few occasions and they are lovely people. But, I am old school. I believe leaving and...

So i know you should not choose your bridesmaids out of obligation, but I find myself in a sticky situation where I'm not sure what to do. I have three sisters. One is my MOH, we've known she would be...
So, I have this cousin and we are on decent terms, but she also has made semi-crude jokes throughout most of my life about wearing a white dress to my wedding and has sent multiple texts of literal...
I'm not getting married, I'm a maid of honor at my cousin/BFFs wedding and I've been constantly annoyed at the other maid of honor. Yeah, my cousin decided to have two maids of honor because she...
Hello! Quick question about guest list- should all family be invited? What about family I haven’t seen in years? I have heard about the etiquette of inviting people but just wanted an opinion on this...
So, I have this teen (16, almost 17) in my family who I dearly love. We're quite close and I've always thought I'd have her in my wedding party. I asked her parents first, they said it would be okay....
A friend of mine got married this weekend. A guest brought a date who wore a white lace wedding dress. Really!?! What would you do in this situation as the bride?
The woman in the photo below IS NOT THE BRIDE. She just wore this FLOOR LENGTH WHITE GOWN TO A FRIEND'S WEDDING. Does anyone else find this in ridiculously poor taste ?
Our ceremony is at 230 and we have to be out of the church by 4. Between the ceremony and reception we have two places we'd like to stop for pictures. We have a choice of starting our reception...
I decided long ago that if I ever got married, my youngest sister would be my maid of honor. I am not at all close with my other siblings, and my friends have become distant. Literally the only other...
