My godmother got us a card box for the wedding. I love it ❤❤ Would love to see everyone elses!!

HELP! I am thinking Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Loretta and Patsy Days. Trying to find something that would mean a lot to my Dad since he loves this time of country music & we listened to it so...
Those planning to extend past the "standard" reception time, it seems like it would make more sense to keep the reception going rather than stop and start elsewhere. Many venues have no curfew at all,...
I think I want to rent a margarita machine for my wedding but I don’t know if it’s strange for my October 2nd wedding. We don’t really like fall flavored cocktails. The weather is usually in the 80s
My fiancé wants to charge $5 per drink. I think we should do open bar. (The venue we have chosen allows for outside alcohol) . I think it’s tacky to charge. But he says he will have top shelf...
