Weddings - October 2007

I want to have a ceremony and reception, but am on a tight budget.

Does anyone have any experiences with grocery store florists or bakeries? Was it really good? Did it save a lot of $?

My cousin is getting married and she's undecided. I suggested Teal and Brown or Teal and Gray.

What are some more unique and classy color combos?

Help!!! I'm confused! What I really want to do is to go to Charleston,SC to get married next year and make it really simple but beautiful but that means that alot of our guest won't beable to come. I feel like a part of me has to stay and have a local wedding so that all the guest can come but that also means more expense and planning involved. I know this is a one in a lifetime event for me so I don't want to regret it years down the road. Does anyone have any ideas that I could do for the local people or should I just forget them and just think about me and future husband and close family members???

I am getting married on the 31st. Yes Halloween. My family and friends have known about the date and time for a year. 2 days ago, my grandmother called me and chewed me out for poor planning because she doesnt see how 2 of my uncles can make it.(They work for her) I got the whole you should have chosen a different date/time etc..The ceremony isn't scheduled until 6 in the evening..I had 150 people to work around when i picked the date and time and that seemed the most workable to the majority. Am i right that she should have said something months ago???

We're having a small wedding at our church and the reception will be in the church hall. Our families are complete opposites and won't mingle very well. Because of my family we are forced to have a dry wedding which his family won't be too happy about. For the reception we were planning on having cake only. What are some ideas of things we could do during the reception so it's not a total bore?

I'm a Japanese engeged with an English guy I was with last year. We've dated for 10 months, entered a long distance, he came to Japan and proposed to me this July.
I wanted to be married to a person with stable income, but he was a contract IT programer (450 pounds a day, which might not be bad at all), and he needs to look for jobs everytime he changes projects. I never understood that mentality. I feel very worried about it.
At the same time, my very successful best friend proposed to me suddenly. He always told me that he loved me, but I thought that was about our friendship. It actually wasn't... he has the same value and view of life, and he's a lot mature than my current bf...
I was really in a mess last week. I thought of canceling my engagement, because it's not best to make big decision when everything is confusing...but today my fiance's mother was told she has cancer, and might die soon.
I can't stop crying... I feel like I can't tell my worries to him at all now...

We're having over 150 people but me and my future husband each have very big families and lots of friends so a lot of people will be left out. I've been getting lots of questions from people I don't intend inviting about when they're getting their invitations and don't quite know how to tell them that they're not.

Ok, so i was at a family wedding this weekend. It was lovely. However i am concerned that when all the scheduled dances accur that people are going to be bored. I really want the bridal dance, our first dance, and the father daughter, mother son dances, but would it be tacky to have everyone join in after we have started the dances?
I just dont want people to get bored?

When I watch all these bridal shows, they spend thousands of dollars on flowers and decorations. What is done with this stuff after the wedding? Are people keeping them, or do the wedding planners keep the stuff, or is it thrown away?

We just found out yesterday that my fiance's daughter has been telling her mother many, many lies about what goes on in our house and she went as far as telling others in authority about things that happen in our house. She is 17 and we know it is her choice to come to our house for visitation. I had asked her previously if she would be one of my bridesmaids, but she never really gave me an answer, though she talked about what dress she would like to wear in the wedding with me on multiple occasions. Right now, I am so angry about the lies that she told because she tried to make us look very bad in the eyes of others. It is not just me and my fiance that she lied about, but also my 2 children, whom she claims to love like her own brother and sister.
I really don't want to keep her as a bridesmaid, because to me, I have to be able to trust my bridesmaids.

Should I keep her as one?

I know that usually a bride is supposed to be accompanied by her father when she goes to the altar. However my dad died when I was little, and my grandfather died 2 yrs ago and I really don't have any other male relative to take me to the altar. Is it appropriate if I go by myself?

Winter brides (for those who live where there is actually snow during winter)...what kind of shoes will you be wearing? Are any of you wearing some kind of boot under your gown? If so, do you have any pictures or links?

Thanks and good luck to all winter brides!

I heard there is an etiquette that says it should be at the woman's family, but modern views say it should be discussed as needs arrive. What is the traditional etiquette in this case and likewise, where do newlyweds spend holidays?

We come from two different worlds but we love each other. We both don't talk to our families often but I wanted to invite them to my wedding.

His family- are ghetto druggies and have a pot farm in the back of their house in a crackhead neighborhood

My family-are rich and loaded and could careless about anyone who makes at least 100,000 a year. Knowing someone who doesn't have more than 1 house makes them a joke in their eyes.


But what seems to be the problem is each side of the family wants to physical hurt each other's family and don't seem to care what me and his feeling towards it is. It's almost got to the point where it's has be physical between the families.


I really don't know how to deal???

If it was your wedding, and you invited a close cousin to come to it, and they decide not to come because: 1. They don't like the way your wedding is being held and 2. They didn't like the way they were invited to the wedding. Would you go to their wedding when they get married?
