23Besides the limo driver is there anyone else we are supposed to tip? The venue has added gratuity to the bill which I'm assuming is for the waitstaff and barstaff.
We made some tweaks and welcome opinions and advice on it. Because we are expecting 300 guests it will be impossible to have a table to table visit. We are going to have to do a small receiving line...
We chose a city that is neutral. It is 40 mins to an hour away from everyone who is invited to the wedding. We did that so that his family and my family don't have to travel 2 hours. The banquet hall...
I found out that you are suppose to feed the dj, photographer and videographer. My question is what do you feed them? Same thing as your guests? Is there anyone I'm missing?
I was playing with the idea of the two flower girls having the same dress as me. I find it cute, but I might not do that because of their ages (3 & 4). What are your thoughts on matching bride and...
FH and the groomsmen are going to wear a black suit and we are trying to figure out what looks nice. We are looking for opinions on what would look better. Our wedding colours are dark red, white and...
I'm looking for ideas on how different my MOH's dress should be. There are so many options. Same colour, but a different dress. Or same dress, but a different colour. Same dress and colour, but a...
I'm really excited about our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Our photographer does dreamy & surreal edits. I get a certain amount in my package. I want most of my photos to be natural...
I figured out who we don't need to tip and who we should. Im just unsure on some stuff. My venue has a 20% gratuity added to the bill so the bartenders and waiter's and cooks are taken care of. I know...
I know we still have time, but we are just seeing what our options are and I'm that type of person that wants to get things done right away. His aunt (in Ireland) is going to get the rings for us,...
FH and I are having a disagreement on who gets a wedding favor. I know if it's edible everyone attending gets one, but if it's not edible who gets one? Is it one for every couple/family (same people...
We are having our engagement photos in early June. The locations we are looking at are things we love to do. We enjoy hiking and seeing waterfalls, we spend time at the beach, and we also go jet...
Aside from putting the usual stuff, we are thinking of also adding the list of music we are using for our ceremony (The prelude, processional, bridal entrance and recessional). We also want to add the...
Last night FH and I were trying to figure out a timeline for the reception so we can have an idea on when the best time for the Irish dancers to perform. How realistic is this timeline? We are asking...
Our wedding is in June 2019. FMIL and FSIL wants to host the bridal shower but they are thinking of having mid Nov. Where they live they get so much snow so they don't want to have it between Dec to...
What is everyone doing for music at the ceremony? Are you hiring a DJ or a String Quartet? Are you playing the music from you iPad or is someone from the church playing the organ (piano or guitar)? ...
The food will be Italian/Portuguese mix (4 course meal, open bar and the midnight buffet) and his mother is having her Irish dance school perform right at the beginning of dinner, after we do our...
I want my colours to be dark red, white and champagne. The table clothes, napkins and chair covers will be champagne, the plates white and the centerpieces dark red and white. The bridesmaids will be...
We are trying to decide if we should stick to the package we want or if its worth getting a second photographer? I'm wondering if anyone on here decided to get a second photographer? What made you...
So far the cheapest save the date cards and wedding invites I've found was at Costco for 69 cents each and it comes with envelopes (no shipping fee). I was wondering if there is somewhere I've...
I was thinking of having something like this as a centerpiece. It will have flameless candles. It's 10 inches in height and 7 inches in width. Is that too small? Should I find something else? Is it...
For those who are sending out save the date cards, how far in advance did you or are going to send them? Every timeline I look at say 4-5 months in advance. I want to send out in mid June so people...
I want to remove the throwing of the bouquet and I can't decided about the receiving line. Every wedding I've been to, including the two I attended last summer had a receiving line. Everyone I know is...
