Best/worst: Bridesmaid/groomsman gifts
Michelle, on February 12, 2021 at 1:52 PM

What to do during a wedding reception?
Richa, on April 24, 2021 at 1:27 PM

Tipping Bartender (i am providing alcohol)
Brennan, on April 24, 2021 at 8:23 AM

I have read that you should tip your bartender 10-20% of the total bar tab. My fiancé and I are providing the alcohol for the wedding, but we are getting it at a discounted rate. Should I tip 10-20%...

Scratchoffs or donuts as favors?
Jessie, on April 23, 2021 at 12:47 PM

Since we can't do our original candy buffet, we're trying to think of other favor ideas. And before anyone says it, I know favors are pointless to many, but we want to have them. Our first idea was to...
