Which seating arrangement are you choosing for your wedding: a sweetheart table (just you and your new spouse) or a head table (you, your new spouse, and wedding party members)? Or maybe even a...
So as of right now the wedding cake is included in our total price per person (which is expensive since I'm in northern NJ)- and it does include a ton of food during the cocktail hour and open bar,...
Super torn for family style vs plated- roughly the same price. Would love any feedback from people who have done both. TYIA!
Has anyone created signs to keep guests out of the reception space until dinner? For reference, our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception are all on the same property. I don't want people wandering...
Hi everyone, please could someone help with ballroom music? Please I don’t have ideas
Is there anyone marrying someone that belongs to this Fraternity? I'm trying vto figure out what they do during the reception and hoe to incorporate into my timeline
At least half of the guests who will attend my wedding love cannabis, including my father (who never wants to not be high). I am in favor of this because all these folks are a lot of fun when they're...
I’m interested in having a digital guest book vs a traditional one at our reception. I like that it captures our guests and will be so fun to revisit. Not planning on having a photo booth or anything...
I just don't care about having a book, map, picture..... Nothing. I don't care to have anything guests can sign. I saw a cool looking map that I liked because my FH and I are from different countries...
What does your tentative timeline look like? Is it structured or go with the flow? Is there enough time for everything you want to do or do you have to cut something out? What events are you having...

Hey there are there any D9 brides out there?? I’m a member of SGRHO and would love to know how you are planning to incorporate any Sorority traditions in your wedding reception. Please share!
We are looking into having Freebirds as our food option at our reception. It’s a small group of 65 people that’s just close family and friends. Has anyone or knows of anyone serving Freebirds at a...
Has anyone used a Nespresso machine for their coffee bar? I would just get coffee pods vs the espresso but, I don't have a keurig. Trying to figure out the best option!
Hey Brides! Looking for any and all recs you have for a lively and engaging DJ who can also emcee our reception in the Tri-state area. We are getting married in Tarrytown NY next spring and so NYV DJs...
I found out our wedding venue changed their menu completely and they didn't even notify us. The first menu that we received when we booked the venue was filled with options like hors d'oeuvres, plated...
If you had a bartender, did you pay the tip separate at a later date or did you have a jar set out for guests to tip at their discretion? Because many people don’t bring cash to open bars, did the...
Recommendations on fruit tables for weddings
Hi All! I have never used uber events or lyft events. I know how to set it up and such, just curious of if the rides are guranteed or not. If I create an event does it give drivers time to commit to...
