I don't know much about bridal showers yet, but I'm looking into it. A lot of the "popular themes" are kind of racy (lingerie, cocktails) or seem meant for a small group of women (spa day, getaway...
I'm getting ready to order my invitations and I just had a last moment of panic. So our ceremony is at 1:30 and since our reception will fall between meals we're only doing fruit and veggie trays and...

Self explanatory question. Who is riding in the limo with you to your ceremony? Just bridesmaids? Entire bridal party? Lets hear it ladies.
I am starting my list of people who have RSVPed so it's easy to make my escort cards when it's time. Does everyone get their own? Or does like a couple get one and singles get one? What about like a...
Have any of you done/are any of you going to a brief "thank you" speech at some point during the reception? I would like for Nick and me to say a few words thanking our parents and thanking our guests...
Do you have suggestions of a good Spanish songs to dance to for my groom and his mom. I would really appreciate your help so I can play songs for the both of them so they can choose a song to dance to...
OK so we have a very unique height difference among our bridal party. Both my FH and I are short. I am 5'3, he is not much taller lol. For my bridesmaids we have my MOH (sister) that is 5'6, and then...
So the situation is I contacted this DJ. My fiancé and I met with him, liked him and wanted to hire him. This is where the trouble started. He decided to bring in the contract and collect the...
Where do you register? I know it's for the bride, but I'm getting mixed messages. Some people tell me things like its for lingerie, sex candy type things. While others want to purchase something for...
FH and I are thinking about nixing the unity ceremony portion of our wedding. I thought I wanted one in there but he made a good point in saying "Isn't that what the ceremony is? One big unity...
FH and I have both lost some people close to us. My grandparents on my mom's side, My grandma on my Dad's side & I never met my grandpa. Most recently, unexpectedly we were called to NY FH's Dad...
I was just wondering, what is everyone doing? I really love my engagement ring but to me the really special ring is the wedding ring. After marriage I was thinking of wearing it on its own most days...
At first I was against doing the garter toss because I thought it was silly ( my FH is also not hot about the idea), but now that I am getting closer to the wedding, I am deciding I may want to do it...
I already googled this, and google wasn't helpful. The invites I chose say at the top "Together with their families". Well...that isn't appropriate for our situation and was looking for something else...
Is it something you WEAR that is borrowed or can it be something else? My grandma is lending me her silver cake cutting set. -- Anyone know if this counts? I know there were a bunch of posts a while...
So on saturday I broke out in this weird case of hives. I have never gotten hives before ever but they won't go away! I am freaking out crying because I am scared I will have them on my wedding day. I...
I just changed my name-- SS last week, license etc earlier this week, bank stuff today. I wanted to change my name eventually but hadn't yet because of moving and law school. Now I kind of regret...
Examples please! I've seen multiple times people choosing wedding wire over the knot. Does anyone have examples of why? Just curious, I found WW from Google and found the website more helpful, but it...
