Weddings - February 2007

i'm happy with my fiance and my life since i left my hometown at 18. we've been dating for three years and we're getting married this summer. here's the problem: i don't really want my mom involved with my new life/wedding/etc. she married the man that kicked me out of the house at 17, when he'd only been living there a month or two (and wasn't paying rent.) she's continuously chosen her man of the hour over her two children, and has now chased them both off. she's passive aggressive in her communication (ie: my little brother joined the navy and they told me (after he was stationed) by sending me a "US NAVY SISTER" tshirt, or how i didn't find out she was going to be in iraq for a year until long after she'd left) so my question is this: do i tell my mom i'm getting married and just hope she won't come, or do i tell her after the ceremony? should i be the bigger person and try to ignore the fact that i can't stand her and haven't seen her in years? or do i enjoy my wedding for myself?

It is only a weeks notice... He has encouraged me to stay and spend time with them... he suggested 3 months. That is so long to be away from him. I do trust him...i just want to know that this has worked out for others...or am i making a mistake by letting him go to a new city without me

I'm getting married May 12th which is mothers day. I just realized flowers are going to cost about twice as much as normal because of the weekend, I was estimated about 1-thousand dollars for 7 bouquets.
I worked in a florist shop for a few years so I know a bit about bouqueting, and it seems to me it would be way cheaper to just buy a bunch of flowers and do it myself (with the help of my bm's). I would still pay someone to do the boutineers. Just wondering if you think it's plausible or if I'm out of my mind!

Apparently this is traditional at weddings for my future son-in-law's family, but I've never heard of it, and can't find it online.

Any input would be appreciated.

I am wondering....I know you can put the paper squares for your registries in the Bridal Shower invitations but it is unproper to put them in the wedding invitations of guests that didn't recieve them previously?

We ran off to Reno because we could not afford a bigger wedding. Now we are renewing our vows so I still want to have the usual shower brides have for their wedding. Is that bad?

This is for a wedding reception. There are no removable ceiling tiles. What can I use that will look tasteful to hang the lanterns from the concrete ceiling. I will be using monofilament (fish wire) to hang with. Thanks for your help!

I am having a very formal wedding and we are not inviting any children due to cost and the fact it's not a child friendly place.
I would like to put it somewhere- maybe on the reply card?
Can I just state "No Children Please."

Please give me your thoughts on the WORDING, I don't need a lecture on "how important kids are" or how they should be invited. As I told my fi step sister- if you don't like how we are planning our wedding, that we have to pay for.... then don't come.

I've been told that when it's "the one", you'll know. I've now went to three bridal shops, tried on upteen many dresses, and so far I've only narrowed it down to a designer. I still feel like there's something missing, like it's not quite right. Has anyone else went through this? All of my friend's found theirs right away.

Any good ideas about how to approach them and where to do them. I recognise that it;s a good idea to have one available, espeicailly as our wedding will have over 80 guests, but I'm dreading the whole experience, it's mortifying.
And do they have to go in with invites, or is it best to put 'available on request'?
yuk

ANY CREATIVE IDEAS??

Should we just make it a little earlier in the day? The only thing is it's going to be warm outside. The later the better.

I should mention that we DO plan on having a tent, but the funds are low so we're looking to cut back. We're paying for everything ourselves and we have thought of ways to cut back on other things as well.
