Does it matter which side of the alter you stand on ? I'm sure we all have a 'better' side.... which side of the alter will you be on whilst being married to your FH? Is their a 'proper' side to stand...
FH has 3 kids, 2 boys and 1 girl. Too old for FG/RB but too young for BM/GM in my opinion. We are doing a sand ceremony with all of them. We also decided to have the boys escort the moms down the...
I am having a daytime wedding that will end at 5 pm. I booked a room at the hotel next door since I was kind of weirded out by going home the night of our wedding. However, now I am having second...

I know this may seem like a little much, but I'm an overly organized individual, so please humor me. I drafted this packet that is rife with informational goodies for all of those involved in our big...
Me and the FH are worried about "extras" showing up the day of the wedding and us needing to pay more than budgeted. We are already over our max in invites and are crossing our fingers on that. My...
Thinking about having a tiny wedding where instead of inviting immediate family we invite a few close friends. We wanted to elope but I’m worried it will be too anti-climactic. Inviting his family...

Hello friends I was just wondering how other women feel about getting their engagement ring at a pawnshop vs Jared. Why?? And why not???. I personally don't care only if its what I like and has a...
Hi, everyone! I need a few awesome ideas for bridesmaid gifts. Quite a number of my bridesmaids are not girly at all - hardly wear makeup, not into spas, or barely wear jewelery. I know a lot people...
Are you doing any games encourage the bride and groom to smooch during the wedding reception? I want to do something fun instead of just kissing every time someone starts clinking their champagne...
I'm really confused about the processional order and who escorts who. We have an officiant, a groom, a BM, groom's parents (divorced), groom's grandparents, and my mother...then of course, my jr BM,...
I'm not comfortable with these events taking place, but my fiancé really wants to have them. He insists they will be fun, but I am skeptical. Is there a way to do something similar, or reinvent the...
