Long story short, I'm having a dry wedding. Mostly because we won't be able to afford all the alcohol & because the vast majority of the guests are not drinkers anyways. So we're doing water &...
Hi everyone! We are FINALLY having our wedding celebration, after moving the date four times and delaying by over a year. We're getting married in Portugal, and will have about 20 guests total. For...
Hi everyone! I’m playing around and brain storming my venue set up, but I’ve hit a small snag. Our venue has a small room off to the side (I’ve circled in red) and I have no idea what to place back...

Hi Guys!! So getting married in Oct. FH will dance with his mom of course. Now the father daughter dance will be a little different. I have a stepfather who has been around for more than 25 years. I...
How many wedding favors did you have? Did you purchase enough for every guest/household or just a general number of what you thought would be taken? What did you use as favors?
If the time between the start of the reception and the start of the grand entrance is 35 minutes, Should I provide snacks/appetizers for my guests? I was thinking about cutting costs by not suppling...
I don’t know what makes more sense. Having water be served by our servers with pitchers. Or having it be self serve with one or two 32oz glass bottles of waters to a table.
My fiancé and I have a low budget for the bar, but still want to provide everyone with something to drink (maybe 1 drink per person). We’re thinking of just doing wine and beer, or maybe only offering...
What do you guys think of the cover of from this moment on by Caleb and Kelsey for a first dance?
