Hello, I am very frustrated lately and I though I could find some advices here. Me and my fiancee are together for 3 years. He proposed to me in May this year. I wanted it so much, so I was very...
I was disappointed when I received a the "no" RSVP from a very close friend but gave her the benefit of the doubt. The conflict had to be something important, right? She also declined my bachelorette...
So it has been a tense time for me planning this wedding. My older sister is supposed to be my maid of honor, but we recently got in a fight about nothing that has to do with the wedding. Mean things...
How is you guys relationships with your maid of honors? Do they get on your nerves sometimes?? Are they extra helpful or do they trying to dictate things and tell you what to do?
Hi there, I’m here again, asking another question; this time is for support, and I want to know if it isn’t normal to feel like this. My fiancé and I have reserved the venue from a long time ago (it’s...
2020 just keeps getting better and better. During this wonderful contested election, I posted online that I had voted and who I voted for (which I now regret) but not why I voted the way I did. I got...

I'm not into social media that much aka I don't need validation from internet friends or the need to show off pictures. In fact, husband and I didn't announce or engagement nor did we post any wedding...
Sorry for the long post. I recently got engaged and we’ve only just begun discussing wedding planning. No decisions made. Not discussing of budget or dates yet. Just talking out loud of possibilities...

So my family doesn't really approve of my relationship. We've been together 11 years and have 4 kids together. We have had the good, bad, and ugly for sure. We have pretty much no friends. No family...
Long story short, GM and BM dated and broke up and got into a huge argument when they ended things. My FH is managing the GM and I’m working with the BM. Our wedding is one month away and the bach...
I am at a lost and need advice. I hate that I still feel this way but I can't stop being annoyed that I don't have my ring yet. I have been with my boyfriend (I hate that word) for over 8 years now....
My brothers wedding is right around the corner. A bit of backstory; my sister in law wanted to have a court and my brother did not. It was important to her to have her sisters a part of the wedding....
She just threatened to wear this to my wedding over text. I assume she already bought it or something like it. She did this to my sister. She wore an identical dress and a veil to my sister's wedding....
