Im planning a wedding for a friend of mine. The wedding will be in Oct of next year. Here is the wedding dress she picked out (its a light Gold dress)

She wants the colors to be neutral and her cake (which she wants to plan her wedding around) is Ivory icing with Chocalate edging. I was thinking about this dress and color for bridesmaids with bright flowers but wasnt sure if the truffle color is too dark or blah. Opinions really appreciated.

Here is the bridesmaid dress:

Okay, so, here's the dilemma. Fiance and I have been together 6 years. It's really time to get married and we'd like to before we start a family. The problem? I don't want a big wedding (if I could just sign papers and be done with it I would). My family won't be there for two reasons: 1. they can't get along in the same room for 2 minutes 2. they all live far away and probably wouldn't even take the time out to come.
While my fiances family is close and do get along, I want something quick and small. Maybe just us and a couple of witnesses.
Here in B.C. you can't just go to the courthouse and do it there. You need to have a commissioner of marriage perform it or do it at a church.
The commissioner of marriage goes wherever you want to have the service.
So, got any ideas that are quick and easy? Also, how do you break it to the people who won't be coming ie. my family?
When my dad got remarried he told us like a week beforehand and we didn't go cuz we were far away.

I hear of brides moaning about what they have to do for other people on their wedding day. Why bother? A marriage is essentially a ceremony that tells other people in your community that you intend to live together as man and wife from now on. A simple service with anyone who wants to attend will be sufficient to get your wedded life off to a good start. Why all the other palaver?

My fiances son went to jail and he is facing a very long prison sentence. My future sis-in-law wants my fiance to dip into savings for our wedding to get him a lawyer to get him out on bond. My fiance said he was not going to do that bcuz he didn't put him in jail. We'll be there for him in every other way but my fiance refuses to dip into our wedding fund and his sister told him f**k your wedding! Is my fiance right? And should I still invite my future sis-in-law to the wedding since she doesn't seem to care about it anyway? I guess I should say that his son is up on a murder charge and we would need like $25,000 to get him out on bond, I might as well kiss my wedding good bye! What do you think?

Over a year ago, I had a huge fallout with who was at the time my best friend. There were a number of reasons for this, some including that I had been going through some really tough stuff (death in the family, fiance in Iraq, etc.) she was really dramatic about everything imaginable and she has since moved to another state. Then someone told me that it was her that had started a rumor to destroy me and my fiance. This didn't work of course, but regardless, I never found out if she had actually said it or not. We have worked on this since she left, and even spent a weekend hanging out when she came into town last. It seems that things have changed with her. We got along wonderfully, and I missed her being around. Anyway... Im not sure if I should let it all go and ask her to be a bridesmaid or not. I know she would like to, as she has made small comments about my wedding... I am not angry with her, nor her me (i think) so, yes or no? My fiance thinks she wouldn't cause any problems.

We are only have family and very close friends to our the daytime do and then a big party at night for everyone else. My mum and dad have 3 friends (that I have known for years to) and I don't know if I should invite them to the daytime. They have to come along way and will probalby stay at our house with mum and dad. I like them but I see them maybe every other year.
My sister invited them to her wedding a few years back but she had a big wedding (and lots more £ than us!)
I don't want to upset anyone what do I do?

It wasn't until I had the ring on my finger did she start making nasty comments about me. We are only a few weeks away from the wedding and my future mother-in-law is trying to get my fiance to call off the wedding. He reassures me that that won't happen, but for some reason now she can't stand me. We have been dating for 3 years and we talked openly about getting married for at least a year, so its not a surprise to her. She has even threatened to not come to the wedding at all. I honestly can't think of anything I have done to offend her. She will completely deny everything if I ask her. I just don't know what to do.

Allright, here is the deal. I am supposed to be getting married in February. Well my fiance just came clean that he has had an iFriends account and that his checking account was overdrawn because of charges from iFriends. I need some advice as to what to do. Do I trust that he will be honest or what? He lied about this for 3 weeks to not only me but to his family. He has serious financial issues and lying issues. I just need advice on how to either get this fixed before we get married or even if I should go through with it.

I'm not sure what what to make of this wedding announcement that was in our local paper. There was a picture of the couple and apparently it is a legit engagement. I have changed the names of the people...but otherwise line for line, this is what is says. (oh...and the groom is NOT a "lord" or a "IV")
Jane Smith, estranged daughter of of Jack Smith formerly of Jonestown
&
Lord Ronald Jones IV
wish to announce their engagement to be married on July 8, 2007

Jane is the daughter of Liza Smith of no fixed address
Grandmother is Beth Small


Any ideas? Or is everyone else agree that this isnt just weird, but also totally inappropriate? (even in jest)

I see a lot of women looking dreamily at bridal magazines in book stores. It makes me curious. Also, it seems curious to me that people spend a lot of money on weddings, and then argue about money a year later. If they had saved the money they could have used it for a rainy day.

I have some little favor boxes and I am putting candy hearts in them, but I wanted a favor that people could keep. but I am having a hard time finding anything small enough to fit in the box! and they need to be cheap, this is a last minute wedding, so the bugdet is tight. also it is a double wedding, so if it tied into that it would be great.....Thanx!

I am getting married in June, the service is outside with a gazebo, pond w/ a fountain, ect, then the reception is inside (it is at a country club). I am looking for some interesting ideas for decorations, gifts, flower girls and ring bearers (we are having 2 of each b/c they are just too cute). We want to do things differently, not the same traditional wedding you always go to...

I am getting married in the fall and want to do something unique as wedding favors and decor. Something other than the cookie cutters or candles.
Themes I'm looking at are a wine theme or garden theme (for fall). I would like to cut costs in this dept, so something I could make myself would be great. Any ideas?

My fiance and I are getting married next year, and I made the mistake of telling some people around the work place. This one guy was thrilled and wanted to go so bad, so I told him ok. That was a mistake, because since then he has stabbed me in the back several times here at work.I took the high road and ignored his behavior but I no longer trust his character and do not want him at my wedding. How do you un-invite someone without being rude?
