Welcome Sign/guestbook
Imani, on June 15, 2022 at 9:07 PM

I found this on Etsy as an alternative guestbook. I think it’s great because it can be used as the welcome sign for the ceremony & the guestbook for the reception. I didn’t want to spend...

Would this seem strange?
Taylor, on June 15, 2022 at 1:04 PM

Who does mob Walk With?
Imani, on June 4, 2022 at 10:17 PM

I noticed on our rehearsal sheet that the parents walk in after the officiant. However, since my dad is walking with me, does this mean my mom walks in alone? Or does she walk in with Britany’s...

Wedding sign program
Kelly, on June 10, 2022 at 12:18 PM

Instead of a traditional paper program, I decided to do a wedding sign. The only thing I’m trying to figure out is adding a little memorial phrase at the bottom of it. A simple phrase that says, we...

moh song?
Michelle, on June 5, 2022 at 11:46 AM

I am having only a MOH, no bridesmaids. Should she and I share a song or should I still have her have her own song and I have my own song even though it will only be a 10 seconds long.
