Weddings - July 2007

My sister-in-law was complaing over the tux rental her husband was having to pay and she was upset he bought the couple a gift as well. She thinks it is gift enough to the couple for him to be in the wedding. But of course no gifts were turned down by her from her own wedding party.

I was just given a wedding shower on my mom's side and my hosts invited someone that my Mom did not intend on inviting to the wedding. They did not go over the list with me as to who they were inviting. Does that mean that I now have to invite this person to the wedding too?

Here's the situation: This girl and I used to be better friends than what we are now. She has become more judgmental, high maintenance, and arrogant in the last few months. Or maybe I should say, I have NOTICED this behavior much more in the last few months. She's a bit selfish, vain, and overall negative. She's already told one of my other bridesmaids that she was getting fat.....told me that the bar that we thought about going to for the Bachelorette party sucked because she'd been there before......and didn't even invite me to her birthday celebration. Don't even ask me what I was thinking when I asked her to be a part of the wedding because truth be told I think my head was in the clouds. The girl does have some good in her, she's not a terrible person...I don't hate her....I just don't want to have her negative/judgmental attitude around during this time. What would you do if you were me? Just suck it up and deal with it?

I'm helping my mother in law find a dress for our wedding. I have taken her to a few stores but some of the dresses are over priced. She is about 5'2 and a size 16. Does anyone know of any good websites that have nice dresses? She is on a budget and doesn't want to spend more than $150.00. Thank you for your help.

His family is Jewish, mine are mostly atheists-or Christian. Our vows etc are not a problem, nor the reception or planning anything else.. we are stumped on how to do our ceremony! We just want to make a commitment to each other for the rest of our lives and let our families and friends experience it.

Who could we have do the ceremony and where etc? Have you known anyone in our situation?

Hi I want as many people as possible to reply to me..basically if you had a girlf who was white, pregnant and catholic and you were muslim and ur bro was having a wedding soon..would you invite your pregnant girlf along - be honest???? and even if she wasn't pregnant would you still invite her???? Thing is his dad actually loves me more than he bloody does..fact. Worst part about it..the dad invited me to the bro wedding today!..not even the dad of this baby wanted that..he said oh she too pregnant to travel etc. - well yes that is true so he is ok there - I did not mind that as I am too pregnant to travel but the fact of the matter is..he said even if I wasn't pregnant he still wouldn't have brought me along..and that was what became the issue..he said muslims don't advertise their girlfs at weddings..and told me to ask any muslim so my response was ok I will..I also said well muslims-yes they don't advertise the fact they have girlf unless they want her for their future - am I right?

I'm OK with this, just confused about how it works.

I have my MOH and two BM's.
I was going to just pick a color and length (sage and tealength) and let them all pick the dress they liked best.
But if the MOH's dress is a different color (she wants chocolate brown) should all the dresses be exactly the same and just have hers be brown?

Speaking about monster in law...

Getting married at my fiance's church because his mom wanted to. I did not want a wedding at a church.

Now she says it is up to me if I want rehearsal dinner for my guests. She says she does not want one because she wants to get plenty of sleep before the wedding. My bridesmaids are driving quiet a distance to come to the rehearsal, plus it is my brother's birthday.

I am offended. Should it really be up to me?

My best friends sister (who I used to know fairly well for a year or so in high school 10+ years ago) got married about a week ago, and my friend gave me his own verbal invitation saying that I'm welcome to go. I didn't get a written invitation and my friend didn't say "my sister would like you see you there" or anything so I decided not to go.

I've met the new husband a time or two and he seems like a good guy and I know him a little.

What is best to do in this situation? Should I just leave it alone and congratulate them when I see them or mail some kind of gift card?

I just wondered what best practice or common practice is.

Thanks!

I don't feel that I am grateful to wear a white dress, because I am not a virgin. I was thinking of champagne or ivory. This is my first marriage.

I have a diamond ring, and I'd like to sell it, is there anywhere else I could sell it besides a Pawn shop, since they never pay any good. Are there any jewelry stores or something that would buy it?

My maid of honor is a big girl (I'm not small myself). She also has a large bust that requires alot of support. I am allowing each of my girls to wear the style of dress they feel comfortable in. The problem is that on a normal day, she often wears spagehti strap tank tops with no bra, and the shirt doesn't always cover her properly. I want to suggest some flattering styles for her body type, but don't I'm afraid she will not like the choices and might be offended. Any suggestions on how to suggest them without making her feel unattractive? Do you know of any stores or websites that feature reasonably priced bridesmaid dresses for full figured women?

I know that wedding cakes are made in advance, usually a few days to a week, of the wedding day. I'm wondering if there is something unique about a wedding cake recipe that differs from a typical cake recipe so that the cake stays moist for so long. We're looking for a great chocolate wedding cake recipe if anyone as any! THANKS!

I'm getting married in 3 months and we already have our hall picked out. My future mother-in-law, myself, and my fiance all went to look at the hall and my mother in law decided she does not like it and began to look for a new one. I did not think she would find one on such short notice but she did. Now she wants to switch and we have money down on the other one. The new hall is two dollars per person more but it does include the booze, the old hall did not and we would be out our deposit. What do you all think I should do?
