Weddings - March 2007

I was worndering...:

I have seen it different way:
*Where the bride and groom or their parents pay for the hotel room for all out of town guest
*Where the out of town guest (both family and friends) have to pay for there own hotel room
*Where the bride and groom or their parents pay for only the hotle rooms for out of town family but the out of town friends must pay their own hotel room

What is right?

My brother is getting married 3 weeks after my baby is due.He is getting married in a strange town where we don't know anyone. They said no kids under 18 were allowed. I express my concern about leaving a new baby w/a stranger and I didn't feel I would want to go to the wedding if my baby could not come. During that same conversation the fiance said she wanted us there and me in the wedding.

Skip ahead a month and I haven't gotten a call from them only emails asking me my dress size. So I sent them a friendly email saying my husband and I would like to speak w/them, not only about the baby issue but they have not talked to us in months and she blames me for things I haven't even done, before we commit to being in the wedding & paying $1000.

I just got an email from her saying they do not want the baby there and I should leave it with a sitter because they are paying $600 for a video. Is that the cost of family? I don't want to be in the wedding. But want to watch. Advice pls

My best friend of 18 years is getting married in May. She asked me to be her maid of honor and originally I agreed. However, I have recently changed my mind and cancelled. I can't get my feelings under-wrap on whether or not I am doing the right thing. Please read below and tell me your thoughts.

1) It is the busiest time at my work and although I can get the time off, they asked if I wouldn't
2) I got married last year and asked her to be my maid of honor. She said no due to having to leave her dog 1/2 a day alone. She also did not want to help with any details - dress shopping was out so she could sleep in and she complained during my entire staggette of boredom (not to mention she was broke and we paid for all her drinks)
3) My husband and I are financially strapped as he is going to school and I do not have much of an income. I work overtime several days a week just too compensate. We calculated the cost to go (it's in another city) incl. the dress and it will be over $700 total

My fiance and I can't afford to have a big wedding right now. We want to elope, and have our 3 small children present, as well as our friend to help with the kids and to help take pictures. Afterwards we want to meet up with our immediate relatives and have some cake and punch before we take our kids to Disneyland. I'm my mom's only daughter and she says she feels like I don't want her there, since we had some disputes in the past. She thinks it's all related but it's totally not. We just don't want to be unfare to his family if she is invited etc. Plus the rest of the family that we are somwhat close to would feel left out too. So we think it would be fair to everyone this way. What do you suggest? If my child were getting married I think I'd want to be there, but since it's me we're talking about things seem different.

I love my fiance very much, and I can't wait til we get married. There are some issues however... Our immediate families live four hours apart and my extended family is scattered all over the country. We've both been married before, we're paying for our own wedding, and we don't have a lot of money to spend. If anyone can help me with some good ideas, I would appreciate it. I love my fiancee more than anything, and I want our wedding to something special, not something tacky or cheap. What do I do?

We just want to go to the Justice of the peace to get married. Can we get our marriage license the same day we get married or do we have to get it ahead of time?

So, I want to ask my girlfriend to marry me, but I said something stupid a few weeks ago. She has been married before and she was pushed into that marriage by her family. She had a really hard time getting past that being as she was married for 4 years and he constantly beat her. Well, a few weeks ago, we were talking about weddings. Well, we had a little disagreement about how many groomsmen and bridesmaids we would have (her wanting a smaller wedding, me wanting a larger one), and I made the comment like, "Well, you know how you felt pressured into your first marriage...well I feel pressured now!" Stupid, because I don't feel like that at all, and I don't know why I said it. I just was mad, and sometimes I say things I don't mean when I'm mad. I have told her all of this and she says she forgives me. But, I saw it in her eyes how much it hurt her, and she hasn't mentioned a wedding since. I want to marry her, but now I'm afraid she won't say yes. Should I still ask her?

I'm thinking of releasing butterflies at the end of my outdoor wedding ceremony. However, it'll just be ME and THE GROOM releasing about a dozen of them. Does anyone know whether it'll be "worth it" for me to buy them? For instance, will the butterflies fly away and disperse right away? Is a dozen too small of an amount for the guests to "enjoy" watching them?

Thanks.

I was wondering what the etiquette rules for gifts are for second weddings? My fiance and I have both been married before and have lived together for some time and have a furnished home. When we announced we did not expect any gifts, some family members said they wanted to get us something... so would it be inappropriate to make a registry?

My mom doesnt think I should because it prevents the guests from mingling.

I think we should so that all of our guests have a seat with their respective friends and family members.

what do yo think? to assign or not to assign...that is the question.


**Side note: sorry if I posted this multiple times, it doesnt seem to be posting...

Her maid of honor is moaning about everything to do with the wedding, she is causing trouble with all the other bridesmaids starting fights, the only thing is she can't stop her being maid of honor as she is part of her close family, it is making my wife to be very ill as she does not like upsetting people. I tried talking to the maid of honor myself and she put the phone down on me, what do we do she is upsetting the woman i love.

My fiance and I eloped this weekend. We haven't told our families yet, and really hadn't planned on it. We know how much it means to them to see us go through the ceremony. This wedding was just our promise to each other. Are we wrong to do this? .... keep in mind we do have deposits down on our venues, musicians, etc.

I'm getting married on June 23 of this year. I just recently took on a part-time job to suppliment my income through college, and I feel like I need to notify my new employer soon as to the days I'll want off for my wedding and honeymoon. However, I don't know how well it is going to go over with my new boss, if I ask for twelve days total off. I wanted that many so that I would have off the day before the wedding through our week-long honeymoon plus travel time (we're travelling from Southwest Louisiana to Gatlinberg Tennessee).

Is asking for twelve days off (without pay of course), too much? What do you suggest?
