The final countdown
Ashlie, on March 30, 2022 at 8:31 AM

Bonus points if you sung the title in your head! April 27th can't get here fast enough, has anyone else struggled with coming up with the music playlist for your big day, or am I the only one?

Planning wedding time?
Brianna, on March 29, 2022 at 1:18 PM

It's getting closer to wedding date and I'm trying to finish up the last couple things I need to do. I'm having a hair stylist and makeup artist come to the venue so I can get ready all in one place....

$500-$600 cake? How much did yours cost? And for how many guests?
Madelayna, on March 27, 2017 at 2:07 AM

I haven't looked into cakes yet as I haven't chosen a venue yet but a lot of venues that include cakes on wedding-spot cost from 500-600 dollars but how big are they? How much did you pay and for how...

How do you vet vendors?
Rosario, on April 1, 2022 at 12:19 AM

I am looking for a photographer and am going off the preferred vendor list from the venue, but these photographers don't have a presence on weddingwire or the knot so I can't read any reviews. I know...

Where are you getting your invites from? Ordering them, making them yourself, something else. I am not interested in spending a ton of money on my invitations. I was also thinking of doing virtual...

Any other “bad brides” out there?
Victoria, on April 1, 2022 at 5:15 AM

Feeling like I’m totally failing at this wedding planning thing 😅 I’m currently 77 days out and still have so much to do. I am the queen of procrastinating and it’s starting to catch up with me....

Splurges and regrets
Julee, on March 26, 2022 at 1:14 PM

What are items you are splurging on for your big day? Not necessarily a vendor but little detail things too. For already married couples, what did you splurge on that you wish you hadn’t and also what...

Is anyone else planning an elopement?
Shannon, on March 31, 2022 at 2:50 PM

We are in our 40s. We've both done the formal wedding thing before. We started out wanting to rent a girl scout camp and having an informal wedding there. Then we decided to change it to a back yard...

Videography or diy camcorder?
6-22-19 Mrs.williams, on September 28, 2017 at 9:37 AM

I would really like to record our wedding but refuse to spend 1500 to 2000 just to do it. Any one else just set up camcorders and DIY? Any suggestions would be great

Polaroid Guest book page count...?
Michelle, on March 28, 2022 at 8:05 PM

I have approx 200 guests for my wedding, and we wanted to do the guest book with mini polaroids. Obviously if folks are adding a picture next to their message it will take up more space on the page......

A Stupid Question, I'm sure... (Venue Insurance?)
Jen P., on August 3, 2011 at 12:27 PM

When a venue asks that you provide a certificate of insurance, what kind of insurance are you supposed to have? Is this wedding insurance? And where does one usually find insurance for such an event?...

How many vendors are you hiring?
Michelle, on March 30, 2022 at 8:05 PM

If you are going the blank slate venue route, which and how many vendors are you looking at hiring? At an all inclusive venue, how many are you choosing?
