My venue is in Key Largo, FL and they enforce a noise restriction of 60 decibels. My ceremony and reception are both outdoors in the same area. Has anyone had a wedding with a noise restriction like...
Does anyone have any advice on this? My cake decorator suggested to use fondant, she said the perk to it is it can be peeled and not color my teeth. I’m nervous about not having tasty frosting for my...
I LOVE to line dance. We really wanted to learn the “house fire” dance by Tyler Childers. We can’t find any other tutorials for that one. Anyone else have any couples line dances they know of??
So I have an autoimmune disease which is strongly triggered by processed sugars and grains. I have yet to find a bakery that does grain-free, sugar-free baking. My cousin has a severe nut allergy...
This experience/event won't change how you interact with the bride & groom in the future (or maybe it did), but that moment made you think "Really? Everything was going great until THAT happened"...
I know a lot of people have alcohol at their weddings, but I'm really on the fence. When my fiance and I started planning our wedding we started no alchohol because his great aunt and uncle are sober...
Hey all! FH and I are getting ready to start dance lessons, and we’ve picked a song we like but when I was listening to it earlier I realized it was like 4-5 minutes long and I feel like that’s way...
Hi all, I guess I am just here to vent and get a little support and am curious for opinions, since I am an emotional wreck. My original wedding date was in October 2020 - - obviously we could not move...
Hey wondering if anyone has done growlers as centerpieces or growlers and lanterns as decoration for a wedding and if anyone is will to share pics? ♥️ or if those two would go together or feel like...
We are getting married on the beach with just immediate family, so total 16 people including us. After the beach ceremony, we will head back to our place for dinner. We will have tables set up and...
Hi all I'm looking for any recommendations or info about any good and reasonable hotels to have my wedding reception. My fiance and I are getting married next year and we are looking for a hotel venue...
Hi girls! My fiancé and I have waited until we were a bit older to get married. We’re in our mid-thirties, which means most of our guests are married with kids or older relatives. Other brides in our...
What are your ideas? I'm leaning more to open seating due to it being such as hassel but I'm open to ideas and what made you pick your choice?
Looking for advice on length of "cocktail hour" and wedding day timeline. Anyone who has had or been to a wedding with a longer cocktail hour would be really helpful. Our venue is going to be flipped...
Pros and cons of DJ vs Band? DJ just seems so much easier, but my fiancé has lofty ideas of hiring local artists and do sets during our reception. Like, it’s a super cool idea to introduce our guests...
So we booked our venue back in May. I loved it when we booked it. Now about a month ago I started to get a change of heart. I hate it. We have asked for the deposit back and got declined. So either we...
Hey everyone! Just trying to gather ideas for menu options for our wedding. We are getting married in Jamaica (hopefully right before the sun sets) and I have no clue what I want to do as far as food...
I do want a really nice looking cake for pics / cutting, but I also want to serve one that’s absolutely delicious. I get that it could be both, but my experience has been that wedding cake taste kinda...
I'm not sure when to fit in the bouquet and garter toss. Right after cake cutting or later on after some dancing? I can't seem to decide if i should do all the stuff and then just have dancing and...
Our daughter will be 16 months old when we get married. She’s going to be the flower girl. I’m not sure what to do with her after the cocktail hour photos are done. Ceremony starts at 4, so reception...
