Games for a couples shower
Kaitlin, on February 10, 2020 at 3:33 PM

Has anyone ever done a couples shower? My fiance and I are sharing a shower and are looking for some fun games to play that revolve around both the bride and groom!

Bachelorette Ettiquette
Kari, on February 7, 2020 at 1:53 PM

Having a bachelorette isn't super important to me, but I think it could be fun. However, I'm only having my best friend as my MOH and no other bridesmaids, and she doesn't live in the area and knows...

Rehearsal Dinner Invites
Nicole, on February 7, 2020 at 1:15 AM

Getting ready to send out invites for the Rehearsal dinner but I am stuck on what the wording should be. My Fiancé and I are hosting and it feels odd referring to us in the 3rd person since we are...

I’m thinking about our wedding rehearsal dinner location and theme. A friend suggested a local Italian restaurant. I would like to save a little money. I just had a crazy idea. Would a pizzeria theme...

Rehearsal dinner stress
Emily, on February 5, 2020 at 1:38 PM

Hey y’all- So was just thinking about our rehearsal dinner. Our venue allows a rehearsal dinner the night before ONLY IF they don’t book an event the night before. And they would only let us know if...

When our videographer asked us if we would be interested in shooting an engagement video, we loved the idea! It was so much fun shooting the video, and sending it to friends and family before the big...

Wedding Shower
Amanda, on February 7, 2020 at 7:39 PM

Has anyone had a Jack&Jill running shower? If so, did you invite a majority of people that are invited to the wedding? I was thinking more of the bridal party and close family, but don't want...

Bridal Shower
Jay1, on February 7, 2020 at 5:20 PM

My mother has asked which date is best for a bridal shower. The date that I can attend is three weeks before the wedding. Is that too late or inconvenient for my guest? My fiance has a wedding to...

We have a resort booked for our wedding. Our guests filled up the resort so it's ours for 3 nights. It has a big grassy area under the aspen trees that we are using for a night-before-the-wedding...

Pastor at Rehearsal Dinner?
Hanna, on February 1, 2020 at 5:21 PM

Do I invite my pastor who is officiating the wedding to our rehearsal dinner? FMIL says she thinks it’s usually the right thing to do but isn’t sure if it’s outdated or not.
