Has anyone found silk flowers that they used submersed (like under a floating candle per say) that didn't bleed? I like the picture below and don't want to spend the money on real flowers. Any...
I’m working on our name cards. We’ll have a large seating chart and these will be at each seat!
We are looking to have a Sunday morning ceremony and then have a brunch reception but really only have breakfast food. There are no caterers who can do what we are looking for so I was just posting...
Me and my man are on budget and we have everything down from some of the best pasta in Boston to open bar the whole night. Sadly renting real plates and dinnerware does not fit the budget. I don’t...
I've decided I'm going to do table assignments, and I'm looking into ideas of how to display it in an easy to see way for guests. I won't be doing assigned seats so I won't be having any escort cards....

I'm having an outdoor ceremony and the location is mainly dirt and gravel since it's August. I really want to have a white aisle runner so give it a romantic look but I don't knk a what type of fabric...
I need the expertise of all of you! Our venue is BYOB...meaning we can bring in alcohol (liquor, beer, wine, etc) and don't have to go through a bartender or drink caterer. They even suggested we do...
Hello everyone, I have a question about photographers. They're crazy expensive and I have a pretty cheap venue (some would call it redneck), we aren't fancy people. I honestly haven't planned much of...
Im wanting to purchase glassware in bulk for my wedding. I was thinking about having a station where people can write their names on the glasses and take it home. I prefer this over plastic because...
Hi everyone! I just wanted to ask a question regarding logistics of actually DIY'ing the floating candle centerpieces. I wanted to have a trio of vases with orchids and a floating candle on top, but...
Looking to make my own decor for my arch, on a budget now that it's crunch time (72 days!!!) Ali Express came up in a google search for floral swags, most reviews were good and the pic provided looked...
Hello, have any of you used a metal circular arch for your backdrop? If so, what is the best method to attach flowers and garlands on it? How did you decorate yours? I was planning on using zip ties...
I'm reasonably confident in my ability to learn some calligraphy for addressing these envelopes. Has anyone done calligraphy before, and if so, what sort of pen would you reccommend I buy?
We are doing an open bar (one of my main requirements!) for the wedding. we probably will have 80-100 people. we hired a bartender through our caterer, and we are providing all alcohol (we are...
