What things did you not think about during planning?
Michelle, on May 22, 2023 at 6:24 PM

Little costs that add up or details that people don’t tell you about such as who is collecting gifts/cards or arranging delivery of getting ready food, as examples.

Has one already gotten married and preserved their flowers in resin? Who did you use what did you think? Is it worth it?

Is anyone NOT having a cocktail hour?
Future Mrs. P, on January 10, 2012 at 2:32 PM

In changing venues it's possible cocktail hour may be eliminated all together BUT I have no idea what I'm suppose to do with my guest in between ceremony and reception? All suggestions welcome

Venue wants all guest's names
Coll, on May 16, 2023 at 4:48 AM

Our wedding venue requires an alphabetized list of every guest's name one month in advance. Is this normal? My brother and sister both recently had weddings and said they have never heard of this.
