Hi there, I’m new here and stumbled upon this site so I wanted to ask a question about bachelorette party etiquette. Every bachelorette party I’ve been too I haven’t had to pay for anything, besides...
Do you tip for wedding hair trial? This will be my second one with same person. $170 for each trial. Reason for second is because I went with low bun and now I want high bun. I tipped 20% first...
I was going to type out our entire friendship “story” but long story short we’ve been friends almost 20 years. Our lives have gone in diff directions at times due to some heavy life things but we’d...
Is anyone else thinking of/did feet washing at your ceremony? I have seen it done and think it's such a sweet symbol of serving one another in marriage. Are you having anyone do a reading during it or...
SO! We have decided to do an intimate ceremony (non religious, will probably literally be 10 mins) - family only and then a reception at a different location later in the day with all of our friends...
We've decided to just do a ceremony. And we love the idea. Just wanting to hear some other opinions.

Someone please help me I have a biological dad as well as a stepdad. And of course with the brides dad being a big part of the day i am sooo confused as to what to do. Do they both walk me down the...
Is it ok to have a letterpresses invitation and RSVP card but include a printed details card as long as all is in the same font styles and color schemes?
We have a to mail a check to our planners for a tip because we had to use the cash reserved for their tip on the wedding day for makeup instead because (surprise!) they wouldn't take a credit card. So...
I have been trying to think of the best way to handle when invited guests do not rsvp and last minute say they can make it? I really don’t want to allow them to come with almost no warning or...
Need opinions: My Bff’s wedding was postponed during the pandemic and I am a bridesmaid She ultimately decided to split her events up. She held a smaller religious ceremony this past fall (bridesmaids...
I wrote thank you notes to my bridesmaids (For being in the Wedding and all their help with everything) and gave them to them on my wedding day. I ended up receiving gifts from each of them that we...
I'm SO excited to essentially be eloping (having a small ceremony with our immediate families) with my FH! It suits us so well to have an intimate ceremony and we can't wait. We've been together for...
