Bridal Processional Song
Sara, on October 7, 2020 at 9:16 PM

So I’m walking down the aisle to Perfect, instrumental version by Ed Sheeran and wondering on a good song for the bridal party to walk down to. TIA

Michelle, on October 1, 2020 at 9:57 AM

My wedding is in 23 days! I met with my officiant one last time yesterday virtually and she told us to think about what we want to include in the vows to make it more personal. We aren't writing our...

Can some give feedback on my vows?

Specifically struggling with how to end them. Shane, Each of these past 8 years with you have been better than the last. We’ve grown from teenagers to young adults together, learning, and loving along...

Special person walking you down the aisle
Cyndy, on September 28, 2020 at 6:16 PM

I’d love to hear who the special person is that is waking you down the aisle. For those of you walking yourself down the aisle I love that you have chosen to do that. For me it was my second marriage...

Wedding programs
Abby, on September 28, 2020 at 9:20 PM

Are wedding programs necessary? I’m on the fence about doing them. Anyone not doing them?

Recording the ceremony
Sabrina, on October 6, 2020 at 1:35 PM

Hi ladies! Our budget doesn't have room for a video videographer. We do have a photographer hired! My question is does anyone have any advice on the best ways to record the ceremony on a personal...

Ceremony seating
Kevin, on October 6, 2020 at 4:47 PM

Our venue is requiring us to do assigned seating for the ceremony as people will need to be seated within their household and then be social distances from others. We have little tags with their names...

Song suggestions to walk back down the aisle after the ceremony
Betsy, on October 5, 2020 at 9:28 AM

I am struggling with what song to walk back down the aisle after our short ceremony. Sort of what something upbeat and happy? Any suggestions? We love country.

Ceremony decor
Kelli, on October 5, 2020 at 8:17 PM

Has anyone done their ceremony with a flower crescent or flower stands? Looking for inspiration besides the typical arch seen a lot these days! Thanks!

Bridesmaid/groomsman Walk
Izzy, on October 4, 2020 at 12:20 PM

So I originally had in mind that the bridesmaid and groomsman walk arm in arm together down the aisle. But due to COVID, I’m not too sure about that idea anymore. I mean, I could always just have them...

Announcing elopement ideas??
White, on October 2, 2020 at 2:38 PM

I’m looking for ideas on how to announce we “eloped” to family and friends (on and off social media!) We had less than 15 guests and it was immediate family and very small. I know some people are...

What did you write your vows on?
Amy, on October 5, 2020 at 2:40 AM

Did you hand write on a piece of notebook paper, type it, get it calligraphied?

Another question about petal toss
Kimberly, on October 3, 2020 at 9:48 PM

The other day I posted about how we should handle out petal toss as we exit the ceremony. We really like the cones for the petals and I just don’t think I can place them on the seats as they will...

covid wedding cancellations
Tiffani, on October 2, 2020 at 11:50 AM

So far three of my family members have miraculously found new jobs and must start them the day of my wedding. Some people may come to my ceremony and not my reception. We’ve changed the date so many...

Wedding Officiant

Alrighty y’all it happened just like I feared. 8 days from my wedding and I can’t get in contact with our officiant. It took us forever to find someone who could marry us, due to not being apart of a...

Rain?
Destiny, on October 2, 2020 at 11:37 AM

We’re getting married on 10/31. Our ceremony is outside & reception inside... I’m so nervous it is going to rain... We are able to do it inside if it does, but 95% of the reason I booked the venue...
