Just wondering if anyone has done anything dramatic for a sweetheart table? Such as a lot of flowers/draped backdrop/flower arch. Does anyone think this is worth it? And does anyone know how much...

I’ll give some (VERY LONG AND MOSTLY ABOUT COVID AND DEPRESSION) back story just because I really need an outlet to vent, and then I’ll end with my question! So scroll to the bottom if you don’t want...

For our restaurant reception, we're doing a plated meal with 3 courses. Each guest was given a choice on each course. Do I need to note this on the place card somehow, or is submitted the layout with...

This week we’re playing “most likely to…”-wedding guest edition! We know Joey Tribbiani won’t be attending your wedding, but will his protégé make an appearance? Who is most likely to hit on all the...

Having a really small, but lush 30-35 person wedding. Plated dinner— sitting w/our guests on one large 40 foot rectangular table. We had them select between chicken & steak but have other options...
What have been your favorites as a guest and what did you absolutely hate?
We were just doing wedding cake but I feel like I need one other item or two. I also have 3 vegans which is making it difficult. None of the bakeries offering me a dessert table do vegan and the vegan...
Need advice!!! Bridesmaids, centerpieces, and my bouquet are red roses… would it look odd if my cake had white roses? I’m torn because the cakes that I’m falling in love with are mostly all white with...

We are getting married on a Sunday in august of next year and its OOT for most people (about 3 hours away). Its the only day available. Most people are saying they’ll take off Monday. I want it to...
