My fiancé and I just got engaged about 3 months ago and we still have a little over a year to go before the big day. Ever since the day he proposed, I've been struggling over who to involve in the...
Is that a thing in your area? I know we have talked about cash bars and how inappropriate they are, but what about Toonie bars. The bride and groom bring in their own alcohol. If the venue allows it...
I'm so not a prude but the idea of my FH going up my dress in front of hundreds on people (especially my daddy) is cringe worthy for me. I feel bad cuz I want him to have his equivalent to the bouquet...
My FMIL just texted me that a cousin of my FH is getting married, they are eloping this weekend. She then said they are planning on having a celebration the weekend of our wedding, in March. We are...
I'm having a plated dinner and everyone will be served the same thing. Should I include a menu card on each table? Is it really necessary? Are you having them at your reception? Any advice would be...
I live about an hour and 45 mins away from all my immediate family in my FH home town. We are having our wedding here. My mother, sister (MOH) and BFF (BM) are coming up Wednesday night before the...
I am having 5 bridesmaids and so far only 2/5 have ordered their dress. The store is waiting for all of them to order so they can place one order and make sure they all come from the same dye lot. 2...
I can't figure out what a reasonable number of people per table is for a 60" round. Some sites say 8, some say 10 but I don't want folks squeezed so tight it's uncomfortable, The centerpieces will be...
So, me and my fiancé want to get married soon. but we don't have the cash $$, so we were thinking that we could get married at the JP with only our immediate family and go to dinner....
Soooo....I wanted a photographer who would include print rights in my package. So I could skip on down to Walmart and make a cheap copy to scrapbook with or whatever. He assured me I would have print...
So I'm a wedding guest at friend's wedding this coming weekend. I was sent a wedding invite a few months ago with an included plus 1 on my invite. I already have a date, she bought a dress for the...
I'm in the process of drafting my place cards for my upcoming wedding (It's next saturday- AHHHHHHHHHHHH!) and I have hit a strange speed bump - my own. Do I put my maiden name or my married name?...
Our guest list is small, 40 MAX. 1/3 of our guests will be underage. The per person price includes everyone despite age. It was suggested I do a consumption bar with a cap, instead. It is my...
I know it can vary greatly but I'm just wondering what the average WW bride's guest list was like for your shower. Did you have more than one shower to break up the guest list? I have just over 220...
Hi, Not sure where to put this question, but I've been invited to one of my good friend's wedding taking place in California, I'm located on the east coast. I'm debating whether it would be bad form...
My fiancé totally surprised me on a Thursday night by proposing out-of-the blue. I shared this by phone at 11pm that same night with my best friend. She then posted it on Facebook the next morning! I...
I'm sorry. I love kids. I really do. I have friends with kids who call me Aunt Dani etc. Worked with them for over 10 years. But no your 15 month old is not invited to our wedding. One BM does not go...
There are so many choices for flowers, corsages, etc. What is current to do? Carry a single flower? What are you doing?
