Tipping list. Who should get one?
5starFM in Planning, on October 29, 2016 at 10:10 PM

Who all should get a tip? I know about hair, makeup, photography, DJ. But I just read someone's post asking about cake too. Can we just list everything here?

Help me explain this to FH (brief update in comments)
5starFM in Planning, on September 7, 2016 at 3:16 PM

FH has a super close and very large family. It's too many for everyone to be invited. We cut back from distant friends, co-workers, kids, and now it's down 2nd cousins and maybe a couple close friends...

As a guest...Am I wrong?
5starFM in Planning, on August 15, 2016 at 10:49 AM

Do guests (women in particular) actually look forward to the bouquet toss? I always thought they were awkward and planned to skip it for my wedding. Had a convo over the weekend with a friend and now...

5starFM in Planning, on July 29, 2016 at 2:36 PM

I want to "trim the fat" on our website just to make it cleaner and to the point for the online RSVPers. One of the biggest sections is the bridal party (pictures & brief description). Did you include...

Is signature drink tasting a thing?
5starFM in Planning, on July 20, 2016 at 10:27 AM

Our venue package includes beer and wine. I would like to add a couple signature drinks as well (on our tab of course). But we don't know two things about mixing drinks. Don't want to buy a bunch of...

Vendors and Vets, is this a bad sign?
5starFM in Planning, on May 22, 2016 at 8:25 AM

I've been in contact with a vendor (flowers and decor) for the last few weeks. We did an inital consult by phone and met in person the following week. From there we have talked a few times, discussing...

Hair trial success...jury is still out on make-up
5starFM in Wedding Attire, on July 18, 2016 at 5:18 PM

I loved how my hair turned out. The inspiration picture is in the top left corner. Make-up dilemma: tried 2 different artists. Both need tweaking. However, I felt more comfortable and more "me" in the...

5starFM in Etiquette and Advice, on July 4, 2016 at 5:38 PM

I've read some comments on WW in the past on not doing this. This picture below makes it seem like it's actually a nice, personal touch. Yay or nay to hand delivering invites?

I made a photo book of our e-pics that we probably won't print out. I got a free photo book coupon code from DB and used if for this. I paid extra for the flat pages so the layouts I chose for some of...

RSVP deadline date: before or after holidays?
5starFM in Planning, on June 3, 2016 at 5:15 PM

I'm was planning to set my rsvp deadline for 3 weeks before the wedding. Turns out that falls right around Christmas. Would you set your deadline before (about a week) the holidays or a week after?

Choosing a florist
5starFM in Style and Décor, on April 30, 2016 at 1:17 PM

In searching for a florist, is it typical to sign contract based on the work they've done in the past, reviews, etc or do they usually show you samples of your vision (mock-ups/sketches)?

5starFM in Community Conversations, on April 11, 2016 at 8:02 PM

Welp, I get to lay here and lurk through all these discussions without FH giving me the side eye. He is definitely on to me. He asked me the other day... "Hey, what are you reading all the time?" Lol....

Need some input. I've been playing around with different color palates and now that I have bmaid dresses in mind, the original color choice is not a fabric option. Let me know what you think of these...
