Wedding Wire people say ...

View Quoted Comment Hey Nicole. That’s got to be a tough situation to be in.

Yeah it is definetly a reginal thing. I will be having one but I think that falls under the know your guests.

View Quoted Comment It’s cool hearing / learning about different wedding traditions.

View Quoted Comment I don’t know why people think a rehearsal dinner has to be expensive. Pizza 🍕 & beer 🍺 is great!

View Quoted Comment I completely agree.

View Quoted Comment So I think that is rude.

You should just create a small registry so if people want a physical gift, they’ll (hopefully!) pick something from there.

If they’re going to get you something “you probably won’t use and end up either selling or regifting” that’s what they’re going to do.

Asking for a honeyfund isn’t going to deter them from getting you a physical gift.

This post is great!

I will say I have gotten tons of great advice on these forums...but man.... some topics are hot buttons for a lot of people!

View Quoted Comment I think people get caught up on the wording.

They don’t like reading someone is getting married when in fact they’re already legally married.

View Quoted Comment Hey Emily. That was smart. I had a few experiences in the beginning of friends or friends of friends. They didn’t pan out and I’m so glad they didn’t. I’m glad I went with professionals who take it seriously versus someone who does it on the side.

View Quoted Comment Yup. You're right. I did a quick search and realized that very few forums take the "there are rules about timing." Most just say absolutely not.

I just never paid enough since it didn't effect me.

View Quoted Comment Thank you. I totally agree. I’ve gotten a lot of advice and help on here. I just made this for the laughs.

My opinion..your wedding. YOUR WAY.. sometimes others opinion will cause you not to enjoy your day. Keep your budget to whats best for you or you will be paying for that special day for the next 10 years. LOL
Im having fake flowers and my soon to be Mr. Is cooking since HE IS A CHEF...225 people..It will be AWESOME.

View Quoted Comment Makes sense Nikita.

View Quoted Comment I don’t think there’s anything wrong with asking for opinions or advice.

Ultimately youre going to do want you you want to do anyway.

Kudos to your fiancee for taking on such a big task on your wedding day 👨‍🍳

View Quoted Comment That’s awesome Tammy.

View Quoted Comment My apologies. It should have been fiancé*

Too funny lol I love being on WW and I get great advice but sometimes there are extreme head hunters on here!!

I think the most common one is what you said- your bridal party shouldn't help you, don't assign them any tasks! Like...what?! lol the people around me WANT to help

View Quoted Comment I just don’t understand that one. I’m sorry that I want them to do more than just show up and stand there?

It's interesting to read WW people suggest not registering if the couple only wants money as a wedding gift, in hopes that their guests will get the hint. Then some of the brides come back to WW to "complain" or just point out that majority of their guests do not even bring a card. A lot of their guests just show up empty handed. And what is the response some people on Wedding Wire say??? "Just be glad that those people came to your wedding to enjoy/celebrate with you!"

Exactly, Kenisha! Like not to sound snobbish, but no one really needs bridesmaids/groomsmen if they do not have any tasks/duties to fulfill for the wedding. Like what's the point?!?! I need people to help me by utilizing their talents!
