My fiance and I got engaged in December and it will be the second marriage for us both (I'll be 50 and he'll be 53 by the time we wed). We still really want to have a beautiful, "proper" wedding to...

I recently got a wedding invitation that said, "The bride requests that you do not wear white." I thought it was pretty bold because I thought it was an unspoken rule and everyone knew not to wear...
I found a venue that is also a hotel- almost all of our guests are going to be coming from out of town. If we book this venue (the rooms are included in the cost) how do we navigate giving the rooms...

Ok, so I'm Catholic - was raised that way and only recently stopped going to church. I've always pictured my wedding in a church. My fiance's family is Jehovah's Witnesses (he's not). When we started...

I just got married this past July. We had a rehearsal dinner, pretty big wedding with band, & a luncheon for the family the day after. None of my family lives near us & my awesome mom...
