Weddings - November 2006

Not only can we not afford to take our family, we just found out that we are expecting a baby within days of the wedding. Some members of his family (including his daughter) are refusing to accept that my husband probably will not be able to attend. I may actually be in the hospital and we have a two year old who will need someone to take care of him. Both the bride and groom live in NJ/NY and are from our home town in PA. We understand their desire to be married somewhere special but does that mean that we are obligated to attend under such difficult circumstances?

My fiance and I are making a CD up to be played at our wedding reception. It's being played in the break of our ceiliah band. So we need an hour of some dancing music/a few romantic songs. We have some good ideas, anyone out there with any reccomendations? thanks xx

I have a picture of my wedding gown in my mind and I think it would be pretty simple to make (not for me, of course). If I buy the material I want and have it tailored would it be less expensive than buying a dress (probably not like the one I imagine)?

Well long story but to make it short..She is a huge drama queen..And i asked her a few months ago (my fiance asked my brother)and she said "Thats going to be texpensive " She said to my brother "they are going to get married before us" wah wah wah..

Well since then everytime we go out she causes a big scene wirth my brother and everything is always about her well last saturday --I had a halloween /my birthday party (very big) well planned out
And She made a big huge scene screaming outside almost got us kicked out of the hall
Threw a drink at my brother...
Asked me why i invited a bunch of girls (she is very jealous)
And basically ruined my party ..Everyone had to leave early
And she made a big scene and made it all about her...
I told her off and she called the next day and apoligized

But everything is ALWAYS about her and she always ruins a nice time out and im afraid she will do this on my wedding day (in fact i am almost certain)What should i DO? I have tryed to be nic

Hello--this is probably a weird question, but does anyone know if you can digitally remove parts of body--double chin--big butt ect ect--from pictures that were taken with film? Anywhere I can take the pictures that could do this??? Thanks for any advice!

I recently got engaged in October and have set a date for 2008. Since my wedding is so far off, I'm unsure as to when I should ask my friends to be my bridesmaids? I think a few of them are starting to wonder but I also don't want anything to happen and change my mind on who I am asking (most have been long term friends but you never know!)

My fiance and I are getting married.I have a 4 month old son.His father isn't paying support and doesn't call at all.His father also lives two states away(I moved back to my home state for family support since i had a newborn and the father proved to be someone who wasn't worthy of children by commiting crimes and abandoning us).Now I have met a WONDERFUL man who is EXTREMELY loving it's unbelievable.He's in the military and wants to marry me and adopt my son.So if the biological father isn't paying support or hasn't made effort to see or call me and his son about his well-being, can my fiance adopt him after we're married without causing a confrontation with the biological father?How can we get this done?BTW I feel that this is whats best for my son because the biological father isn't a good role model.He has felony charges pending against him for robbery and shows no effort of wanting to be in his sons life.

I am wanting to have a fall wedding next year, possibly October. I live in the foothills of the N.C. mountains and it is beautiful outside this time of year. Any suggestions for an outdoor fall wedding? Or maybe share any ideas on fall weddings in general.

Getting married soon and we're struggling to think of good readings for the civil ceremony. Could be poems, song lyrics, quotes etc. Probably having three readings so wouldn't mind a mix of traditional and more modern.

my mum is re-newing her wedding vows to my step dad next year and has asked me and my sister and her cousing to be bridesmaids.

The problem is i depise my mother ,we really truly dont get on at all.I left home at 16 and moved 500 miles away to get away from her .We cant be in each others company she even told me she didnt want me to go home this christmas .It really hurt .

But now she has asked me too be bridesmaid, i really dont know why !

I said yes to keep the peace but i really dont want to ,my husband knows the way she has teated me and doesnt want us to go to the wedding ,i really dont know what to do .

She even rubbed it in that my younger sister is her matron of honour ,my sis gets on with her ok but knows what she is really like but just ignores it to keep the peace .

I really dont know what to do ,i keep thinking of ways to get out of it .
I knwo i should be happy for her but i really cant be and really dont want to do it .

I have a question about the unit candle! Do you have to have one? My mom die a few years ago and so did my b/f's mom so if we had a unit candle who would light it? I guess my dad would for me but who would light it for him? Him and his dad do not get a long to good so he probably will not even be at the wedding. So what is the best thing to do beacuse I kind of want a unit candle. He has a 6 year old daguhter and thought maybe she could have a part in lighting of the unit candle. You know the whole thing about the family be coming one. Will somebody help me with this? Thanks for all your help.

Alright. We're planning on having a wedding next spring in the Caribbean, and we both plan to have guests. Her parents are paying for the wedding-- nice, I know. The problem is that she plans to have only 5 family members there and a friend or two, while I have a large, close family and plan to have around 25. She's not happy about this because she feels that she'll be overshadowed by my family and that I'll ignore her during the 4-day "event". I guaranteed her that I would be there for her the whole time, but she seems to think that I'll make it all about myself and go off drinking with friends. I said I wouldn't. She responded by saying "okay, let's just do it alone then-- with no friends or family at all." Is she just testing me, or is she really that worried that I'll find a way to ruin our day? Could it really be that she's resentful that I plan to have more people, when it's on her parent's dime??

I mean is it usually required of a baseball pitcher to remove his wedding ring? I have seen several players wear it around their necks as a necklace. Please tell me.

I have seen this on the mainstream wedding chat boards as well. Brides feel (and are told) that tipping is mandatory and to figure out an amount to tip before the wedding even rolls around.

You never tip a waiter in a restaurant before they serve you. And you never calculate in your head on the drive there "how much should I tip them?". So why do you do that with wedding vendors?

Back in your parents' and grandparents' day, a tip was never given unless it was a job well done above and beyond the call of duty. But today it seems like it's mandatory for simply doing their job no matter what the quality of service was.

Of course you don't tip the caterer because they automatically include the gratituity which a fancy name for a tip. But everyone else it should be based on the quality of service the day of and the tip should not be given until you see the final service in action. So why did it become customary to hand out tips without waiting to see the final service in action?
