When did long and expensive bachelor/bachelorette parties become a thing?
Michelle, on February 3, 2020 at 10:00 AM

J&j Party
Suzie, on February 4, 2020 at 8:44 PM

Did you have a J&J to raise money for your wedding? FH and I disagree on this idea. He had one for his first wedding, and he said they broke even and doesn’t think it’s worth it. So many people I...

Autumn, on February 4, 2020 at 6:40 PM

Groom and I are trying to feel out a morning after option. We did a ton of research and narrowed it down to two options, both of which would cost around $2,000 and this is pretty out of our...

I’m looking for some advice. We are having an engagement party in about a month. I have no idea what I’m doing. 😅 What I do know is it will be low-key; drinks and pub type food at a favorite hang out....

Party for people who aren't invited?
John Smith, on February 4, 2020 at 12:02 PM

My dad keeps mentioning having a party before the wedding for people who weren't invited to the wedding (it's a small wedding) but who are still an important part of our lives. He seems to think it's...
