My wedding is on July 30th. The church we’re getting married at is currently saying the guest limit is 140, but our reception venue is saying they expect to be at full capacity at that time and to...

Anyone else not keeping their (fresh) bouquet but splurging on photography? People I personally know who have gotten married have a photo or 2 on display as the only memorabilia in their homes. While...
We are now on our third wedding date, finally coming up next month. I have literally been through hell with my bridal party, one girl who was supposed to be a bridesmaid couldnt come to the second...
