He doesn't make that much more than minimum wage, however the money he does make he tends to spend on random stuff as soon as he gets any money. (i.e. expensive tattoos, cameras, PDA, etc). He is unable to save. I would like to know that he can save up money if asked to, prior to marrying him. I don't mind waiting for years if it takes that long for it to happen.

I would like to know if it would be okay to wear these shoes with this wedding dress. I'm just having a courthouse wedding and going out to a fancy dinner afterwards. You aren't even going to be able to see shoes with my dress on anyways, so please let me know. Thank you!

I have a good friend who teaches with me and we've been friends for a year now she is getting married in June and had asked me to be in here wedding last fall. I threw her a beautiful bachelorette party and spent a lot of money on her because I thought we were friends. Another friend showed up from work and they both have become thick as fleas so much that during the party, they hung out together and pretty much ignored everyone else. I was hurt. And now I find out she has asked this woman to be in her wedding because another friend bailed out on her. She wants me to carpool to OKC and wants to go halfsy on the rental car. I'm not interested in doing that and I feel like I'm pretty much going to be ignored at the wedding like I was at the bacherlorette party. Is it wrong of me to feel this way? I feel like a little kid jealous over friends but maybe I set myself up. I'm still going but to be honest I am not very excited about it now. Is it wrong to feel this way?

easiest things you can do yourself and not pay someone else to do? If you have a catering service what are the things you need to pay them for and what are the things you can do yourself? If you purchase some sort of package do you get a discount for doing some of the things yourself? I am trying to plan my own wedding and I am a girl who never thought about this kinda stuff growing up, so I don't have a clue?? We don't have alot of money, but want to have the nicest wedding with what we have. How many people out there that planned there own wedding would do it all again the same way? How many people who are in the process of planning there own wedding wish they wouldn't have even started? Sorry:-( I said I had sooo many questions so anyone who can anwer any of them will be a help to me thank you in advance! And, I am sure I will be back for more help!!;-)

My colors will be hot pink, hot purple, bright green for accents. Can you give me some ideas on what I should do for the table colors (table covers, chair covers, napkins, chair sashes). The reception is going to be at a country club and our room is surrounded by windows and a walk around patio. So you get a really nice view of the golf course. My flowers are going to be the hot pink and purple and the accent of the lime green. Any table color and setting ideas would be great! I don't know if I want the table cloth to be the bright pink or purple or should it be more sublte?

Thank you all in advance for your help. Greatly appreciate it!

My fiance and i have been engaged for 2 yrs.Do to "money problems"(his) we had to wait to get married.Now things are better and we are planning he said he whats to keep it as cheap as possible so he does not go back in debt(total for wedding and honeymoon no more than 4-5k)Now this makes sence but after telling me this he goes out and buys a drum set for 1k.Now hes looking at golf clubs for $800 for himself and a $500 guitar for his 8yr old child.now i know he has had to be tight with money for awhile and wants to spend some on himself. but this seems like overboard to me after telling me we have to be cheap with the wedding.i will add i plan on paying for half the wedding/honeymoon its not just him paying.This is his 2nd marrige and my 1st so maybe its a bigger deal to me than him.

i know when we get married by the justice of peace, do we have to write our own vows? or do we just say our " I do's "..or do we have to repeat everything he says after him?

What are some general topics/good questions you should discuss before getting engaged/married?
-Children?
-Living situation? (Especially if his job may relocate him out of the country after 3 years...)
-Finances?
-Family issues (ex: taking care of elderly parents)

I just got done watching the episode of "whose wedding is it anyway" where the couple call off the wedding 4 days before.
I felt so bad for that poor wedding planner because you could just tell that he didnt like the bride first off, but had to work with her because he accepted the job and 2ndly because she was so tough to work with and he really bent over backwards for her and then she called off the wedding after all his hard work.

I have to ask the wedding planners on this board, does this happen alot and do you generally like all your brides?
I would love to hear stories if you have any!

I'm in Richmond, Va & Looking at May dates. Family has offered their home for our use but I worry about rain and the cost of tents. I am really hoping to spend LESS than $5,000 if possible b/c FH and I will be paying for this ourselves.

I am getting married next year sometime and we were trying to think of some nontraditional ways to get married that would be fun. We will only have a 1-4 people coming along with us. One idea we had was getting married underwater (or maybe even skydiving). Can you think of any other good, fun ideas?

So, i finally decided on a theme for my friends bachelorette party, "Kissing Single Life Goodbye" I am planning on making her a shirt to wear and giving her a cute little bag with temporary kiss tatoos for when we go out, and probably a tiara or something to wear so every one knows she's the bride.....Her mom and future mother in law will be in attendence, so i was trying to avoid a lot of the usual "bachelorette" items so they wont be uncomfortable. Pllus, there wont be a whole lot of drinking (even when we go out) do to other circumstances. What type of favors/ decorations could i do that arent TOO over the top that would go with this theme??? Any ideas would be much appreciated :)

I have been with an absolutely wonderful man for 3.5 years now. We got engaged in August and are fully into the wedding plans. I already have a dress, the location, the date (Oct. 6, the caterer...everything! We've sent out the Save the Date cards and are getting ready to send out the invitations in a few weeks.

Now, I am having doubts. I love him, and know I want to spend the rest of my life with him - start a family & be faithful to him and only him, but I am beginning to resent having to let him know whenever I go out with my friends, and that I have to ignore my little crush's on other guys, and saving every penny I for this wedding. I just turned 22 last month, graduated last May and got my first job last August. I sort of feel like I haven't had a chance to enjoy being a young "independant" woman. My first check with my new "corporate" job went straight to this wedding fund. I want to go out with the girls and stay out all hours of the night like I used to.

Any ideas?

I am not THAT concerned of cost. I am looking for a very flowy simple dress that would be great for a beach wedding in St. Lucia. Something sleeveless? halter? off shoulder? chiffon and flowy...almost angelic in a way? Any designers you know of? Sites?

My friend is getting married and I don't know what to get. She's never been specific about what kinds of things she likes, so I think she's not picky. Also, I am kind of on a low budget. What's a good gift that will not cost too much?

We are having a very small wedding. We have a few people that we want to invite who are single. Some of them I know are not "seeing" anyone and some are, although we have not met any of the "boyfriends/girlfriends". We are paying for everything ourselves, so I'm wondering, is it required to send invitations to "XXXX and guest" or can we invite just the person we want to be there?

I am 20 years old when I first met her. I met my girlfriend when she was 12 year old at college. (She's a college student, her parents put her to kinder at age 4 and skipped 3rd grade. and got her GED at age 12) When she became 13, I asked her out and she became my girlfriend. now, she is 16 year old and out of school and got a job. I am 24 year old with a job also. We are very much in love with each other. I am planning to get married with her. We've been together for 4 great years. I knew she was the one for me. I hear if I do have sex with her, I will be in trouble with the law (statutory rape), I really want to have sex with her. I don't want to wait anymore, it is going to be at least 2 more years then I can legally have sex with her. I would never leave her if she gets pregnant. I'm too much in love with her. What do I do with my sex drive and how to I ask her to marry me? do I tell her parents about me marrying her? They are okay with me dating her.

I just sang at a friends wedding this weekend and wore a white dress that had pink flowers on it with black trim. I know you are not supposed to wear all white to a wedding but I thought printed dresses were alright. Did I committ a fashion crime?
