"Shop Like it's Their Birthday" Bridesmaids Gifts stressing me out
Tori, on February 23, 2021 at 5:10 PM

Okay, I love the idea of individualized gifts, really, I do; and I wholeheartedly agree that the gifts shouldn't be the fur wraps, monogrammed pajamas, or jewelry to wear on that day. However, I don't...

Haley, on February 24, 2021 at 3:39 PM

Hey everyone, so we decided to move our wedding up to this April instead of our original 2022 date! We've had so much support with the decision but also have had some backlash from some! We also...

How are you wording Covid-19 negative test result requests/vaccine requests?
Tori, on February 24, 2021 at 2:04 AM

Hey ladies, For those of you asking your guests to test before coming to your wedding or be vaccinated, how are you communicating this (invitation/details/info card, website, phone call, message) and...

More expensive “perfect” venue or cheaper with more flexible budget?
Emily, on February 23, 2021 at 7:40 PM

Hi everyone! I’m caught between our two final venue decisions. One is much more expensive because it has a higher food & beverage minimum (it’s at a golf club) and the other one is less expensive...

Wedding Insurance
Jennifer, on February 24, 2021 at 12:38 PM

I am just wondering if any couples have looked into buying wedding insurance. Our venue recommended us buying it. I also read online we should buy it before we book any vendors. My fiance doesn't...

Is this a good bridesmaid gift?
Shirley, on February 22, 2021 at 11:02 PM

I have always wanted one of these, but it felt like too much of a splurge for me. However, I thought it might be a good gift for my bridesmaids. I think anyone could use a travel makeup bag/jewelry...

Venue Doesn't Want Flowergirls to Throw Flowers
No Bridezilla Over Here, on December 11, 2016 at 7:53 AM

I wanted tons of flower petals, but because our venue is a historic site and has to be preserved, they are strict on decorations. My two daughters are flower girls and I really don't know what to do....

Hotels near venues vs “nicer” area
Samantha, on February 23, 2021 at 1:46 PM

Our venue is a small country club that is nice, it’s just in an area of houses, that sort if thing. A couple hotels are about 15 mins away - Hampton Inn, one more chain. It’s just that there’s nothing...
