Wedding party not involved in ceremony
Christin , on December 22, 2017 at 10:22 PM

My fiancé and I are doing a bit of a non-traditional wedding-no cake (we don’t like cake), no bouquet/garter Toss, and more. Another idea that I’m tossing around is our wedding party. Originally, we...

Too many guests for a ring blessing?
ThePeoplesBride, on December 21, 2017 at 9:59 AM

I love the idea of having my guests bless our rings before we put them on our fingers during the ceremony. However, my guest list is roughly 140 people and I wonder if this is too many to complete it...

Song length
Crystal, on December 19, 2017 at 2:09 PM

So I would love to walk to the song "flowers in your hair" by the Lumineers but it's 1:53 and I feel that's a long time to walk for only 120 guests. What are your thoughts?
