Weddings - November 2007

Me and my girlfriend have been together for nearly four years, I'm 21 and she's 22, and she is currently 12 weeks pregnant with our first child. I am still madly in love with her and I'm sure she feels the same about me, but she's from Australia, living here to study, and I could be running out of time to ask her to marry me. We already live together and have discussed a future so I'm more keen to know about how and when to propose, seeing as she's pregnant, will that make a big difference? And how do I do propose WELL?

Many people have been hinting at getting a wedding invitation from me, but I don't think I can accommodate all their requests. They haven't been given first priority. Can they attend the ceremony only without a formal invite?

For all the questions I ask, I think it's only fair since some of you have been following me through the whole process!
These are just the proofs so I am not happy with all of them....

I see on here often that a girl is engaged with no date set. Now my grandparents say if you don't have a ring and you don't have a date, you just have pillow talk and you aren't engaged. I heard a similar statement on a judge show recently. You don't have a date you aren't engaged to be married. I am not sure what I think about this. I mean, obviously if there is a reason--like still in college and when I graduate we will set a date, it would be hard to know until your last semester. I mean things happen and you may need another class to graduate. Or you are focused on passing the bar and don't have time to plan a wedding, when you need to set a career in place. But in general I think those that are engaged 4 or more years with no date are living in denial. I mean he didn't set a date b/c he wants an escape route. And definitely no ring is no commitment.

What do you think? No date set for a wedding. Are you really engaged? Is there a hard and fast rule?

Ok, so up until a day ago, I had every intention to marry my British fiance in England on Oct. 3rd. After talking to a mutual family friend, I realized that since I'll also be living in the UK, having the wedding there might seem like I'm trying to cut my family out of our lives. My fiance and I were thinking about having two ceremonies- One in the USA, and one in the UK. The only problem is all the legal stuff that goes with it. Is it possible just to have a wedidng ceremony in the US without having a marriage certificate? Will we need to get my fiance some sort of visa if the first wedding ceremony is in the US? Or can we go ahead and have the ceremony there without having a legal ceremony, and then have the actual wedding in the UK a few months later, where we'll actually have it certified and legitimate? I know it's a confusing questions, but any input would be greatly appreciated...Thanks so much.

What is the typical way the costs for a wedding are divided up? I'm sure they could be divided up in any given way, but what is the general "rule of thumb?"

- Like, the bride & groom pay for what?
- The bride's family pay for what or contribute how much? The groom's family?
- Does the bridal party pay for their own dresses & tux rental?
- Who pays for the flower girl's dress?

Etc.

If there is a website (OTHER THAN THEKNOT*) that gives info on this, please let me know.

*I've been using theknot & having a hard time with it; plus, the layout for their pages makes it very difficult to find things. I'd rather just stay away from it.

Here's my situation: My girlfriend and i recently got engaged and its a big deal because we are both only children in huge families. Her parents of course are paying for the hall and the church and the other traditional expenses that the brides parents pay for. My parents are paying for the rehearsal dinner and a few hotel rooms for out-of town guests. The problem were having is that her father is dipping into his retirement fund and her mom got a second job to fund this wedding while my parents are sitting back only having to fork out a few hundred dollars for the rehearsal dinner. They arent helping pay for the wedding,they arent paying for the honeymoon and this is SOOOOO not like my parents to just skip out on helping such a huge event in their lives too. My fiancee is now very hurt and heart broken that they arent helping and its causing her to not even want to do the wedding anymore. What do i do???...i'm just so torn : ( Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

Ok, well my fiance and I have been engaged since February of 2007, and well I want to get married within a year or two (AT MOST). He wants to wait until we are both completely established economically (he won't start working until next August, and I'm still attending University). But that could take up to 5 years at least with our standards of what "economically stable" means? So what should I do just wait or push for the big day?

we are having 200 people at our wedding, but our bridal party are our best friends and the only ones "our age" attending the wedding. a few months ago my fiance and i made friends with a great couple. a mutual friend with some of our bridal party members. We grew to be great and very close friends and a few days ago they were over. my fiance asked the guy if he wouldnt mind being a groomsman. so at that point, his girlfriend said, " so, am i the only one going to the wedding and not in the bridal party? my fiance didnt know what to say, so he said, oh.... (my name) meant to ask you. ( but i didnt mean to) and she was thrilled! so now i have to make her a bridesmaid or what? i have 4, and he has 5 groomsman, but i already got 4dresses and they dont have anymore, so where do i get another one? or how do i get out of this commitment that i never meant to be in in the first place?

please help.

do you want for christmas? Now listen you girls, Don't take liberties. You know that theres not a lot in the pot so don't put us on the spot. (I like that sentence, don't you?) Even if you don't want anything then say something anyway so as we can get some ideas. Most of us are talking about £100 or thereabouts. Got to be realistic cos theres all your family as well. And mine, Yikes I almost forgot about my own family. Anyway, tell us what you want and we'll see what we can do.

I stress the word normal. No extreme health, financial or family situations.
I personally think 4 months, to a year (at the most).
I think that any longer just gives a couple more time to fight over trivial wedding arrangements.

Me and my fiance are getting married in the court house. I'm having a hard time deciding what to wear because we'll be getting married in January and we live in Alaska!

I was thinking a long dress with a long coat over it. I'm just worried about the shoes [don't want to fall on my face in the ice!] Is red a good idea? I also like the white!.. and my fiance is going to wear his uniform.

These are a few I really like:

I am a bridesmaid in my best friend's wedding, but I still need to send an acceptance card, so would it go to her parents or her fiance's parents? I know the address is her fiance's, but both sets of parents are inviting me... who should I be addressing it to?

A work acquaintance is getting married next June and is very excited that she has been able to plan the entire event herself. She has decided to have some of the following at her wedding reception:

Red Hots, Fiery Buffalo Nuts, tuna casserole, and gallon jugs of water on every table, with foil wedding stickers on the jugs. Oh, and Tic-Tac breath mints.

Brides: Do we shut up or speak up? Several of us have offered to help with the food and she has turned us down, citing she wishes to do everything on her own.

We are looking at February/March of next year for an affordable (read: $3,000-$6,000-MAYBE slightly more...) reception venue. We want to have our own catering, a dance floor, and that's about it... AFFORDABLE ideas please of WHERE I can do this. Links appreciated. I just really need some help here! :D Would PREFER South Bay and Los Angeles ideas over OC venues due to travel time. THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!
