Ok so me and my fiancé are getting married in September. We chose to have it then cos it's such a lovely time of year but his sister is trying to change the date of the wedding to July NEXT YEAR. I already went dress shopping and fell in love with a dress, my whole bridal party loved it too except for her. She was so rude and telling me I looked fat and chunky and I was disgusting in that dress. I've talked to my fiancé about this but all he says is she is just trying to help. Should of probably put this at the start but yeah idk so my sister is the maid of honour and the sister in law is just a bridesmaid. She is taking over my wedding and I just want her to stop! Everything I chose she had something bad to say about it: the flowers were tacky and gross, the venue wasn't her ideal place, the bridesmaids should wear a different colour than what I chose. I want to plan my wedding not her! What do I do PLEASE HELP

i'm getting married at the end of March and my brother (best man) recently returned from his tour of duty in Iraq and wants to wear his army dress uniform in the wedding. However no one else in the wedding party is in the military, except for the maid of honor and she already said she isn't wearing her uniform; in fact she told us, we didn't even have to ask her. The rest of the wedding party is going to match, same tuxes and same dresses. Should I let him wear it, or am I trying to micro-manage this wedding? Since he is my brother this is causing all sorts of hate and discontent in my family, and it seems as though the rest of my family thinks that it would be fine if he wore it, but I'm not so sure.

I m getting married in the summer and my fiance s friends are taking him to Mexico for his bachelor party (Crazy I know!) But the only thing I ve heard my girls mention is the possibility of hosting a girls night in at my house since not everyone is 21. Would it be rude of me to ask them about doing a girls weekend in Toronto instead? It s about 5 hours from where we live and everyone would be able to go out and participate in everything, but I feel bad putting that financial pressure on them.

Hello! I'm in need of some Christian advice.. My boyfriend and I are moving to a new area for jobs, family, school, and other opportunities. We are moving into an apartment together and I'm worried because we are not married. We both want to be married and are serious about marriage, but we've ran into some obstacles. First of all, we have no money for the wedding my boyfriend and his family wants. So we thought, "Let's go to the courthouse and get married" because neither of us want to live in sin. But my boyfriend is very traditional, wants a traditional wedding in a church with our friends and family, and wants to give me everything he thinks a wedding should be. So we are stuck.. I do not want him to marry me in a way he is not comfortable with, but the most important thing is that we do not live in sin and that we get married. So we thought about going somewhere to get married now and have our wedding at a later date, but my boyfriend says it may not feel as real for him if we do that. What are our options? Is there a way to dedicate our lives and our marriage to God but then have a ceremony later like my boyfriend and his family want? We aren't sure if we just want to get married under God that we have to still get a marriage license or if there is a way to do all of this without one. We basically want to get married under God right now and then get married legally and traditionally at a later time. I'm lost. What are our options?

I was asked to be in a wedding for a friend from college. The 5 bridesmaids (including 2 younger sisters) are throwing the Bridal Shower with some help from the couple's families. I work full time and pay all of my own bills and basically live paycheck to paycheck right now. I've already bought my dress, have to buy shoes, as well as participate in the pre-wedding spa day. The MOH and bride are starting to plan a weekend bachelorette party and the costs are getting way out of my range. My question is, do should I be honest with the bride and let her know I can't afford going (which may make her feel guilty) or do I just say I have other commitments on the dates she has suggested? She already knows I've been really tight when it comes to money lately, and doesn't seem to take it seriously.

I have THREE weddings to attend this summer and I am a very broke grad student. I can't afford nice wedding gifts but I still want to somehow show my support for them. How do I approach this situation? Also, I have been invited to a bridal shower and am afraid that I'll be embarassed and will look cheap if I don't show up with a nice gift. Any suggestions/comments/ideas/opinions?

I have about 30 people on my guest list and thats perfectly fine with me but my fiancé has a huge family. I can't get through to him that I want it to be intimate. His dad has 6 brothers so of course all those people are very important to him. He has about 50 plus people just in family, not including friends. I would love a small wedding but i want this day to be special to my fiancé, what do i do?

I wanna know what it looks like.. how many people can you bring? can i dress up? not a big puffy dress, but a simple white dress am I going to be the only one dressed up? lol exchange of rings? our vows? what is a good time to do it? morning or afternoon? any experience you can tell me of... I'm kind of nervous. :)

I'm wondering if we will exchange rings or it's say "I do" and we're out of there. We canceled our church wedding and we're headed for Chicago City Hall. We're just not sure it will be romantic! Can anyone offer ideas? Thank you

My aunt is hosting our wedding reception at her house. She is such a sweet person and loves to entertain so I know she will have a blast. What is a good gift idea for her and my uncle to show them how much it means to us that they would open their home on our behalf? Has anyone been in a similiar situation? Also, they have anything money can buy so a heartfelt true gift is something they would love as much as a $300 gift. Thanks!:)

My mom offered to host my bridal shower, due to the fact that she has the biggest area to host this in at her house, and she wants to invite a lot of my aunts and cousins and she said it only seemed fair since she's inviting a lot of people and she didn't want to put it on someone else. I know it's traditionally the MOH's job, but mine unfortuneately lives 4 hours away :( She's coming here for it of course tho! My two other bridesmaids live alone in apartments and don't have the space to accomodate much more than a few people at a time. I'm ok with it, and so is my bridal party, even my future MIL is ok with going to my mom's house for it. I'm just worried other people will think it's funny... Any thoughts?

I've always seen a Mr. and a Mrs. listed as a "host couple" at many of the weddings I have attended; or have several host couples. What exactly do the "host couple" do?

My family found out that the daughter of a very close family friend (they live 5 minutes from us) got engaged. They didn't even tell us and my dad regards one of them as his best friend. The mother of this family even announced to her church how much she loved us. I don't get it. They had opportunities to tell us, but didn't. When I talked to the daughter, who is a friend, she told me that she and her bf (my dad did not know about him) were not in a place where they could take the relationship to the next step because of going back to school, and now she's engaged like 6 months later and we have never met the guy. I have asked how things were going with her bf before then, but she ignored me (she might have been busy). No one wants to bring it to their attention that we know about the engagement until they bring it up first. Is there any reason to hide your engagement? It's not like we would have been unhappy for them.

I'm currently searching all over Google but there is nothing helpful :/

I am currently a vegetarian and I see myself graduating to a vegan possibly in the future, I'm slowly transitioning. However I would like to get married one day and have children, and I simply don't think there are enough vegetarians and vegans out there to make it a deal breaker, so I would be willing to marry an omnivore as long as he understands that I will not eat, cook, or buy any animal products, if he wants it he'll have to buy it and prepare it himself. I'm not the type to cry if I see someone eat meat, do I like it no but I tolerate it, hey I used to be a meat eater myself so I can't really condemn them lol. Let's say I end up being a housewife someday and my husband has been working all day, is it unreasonable to refuse to cook him meat or other animal products? Where I'm coming from I'm not trying to preach I genuinly feel uncomfortable making that stuff and I hope he can respect that. Do you think my conditions could work if my soulmate happened to be an omnivore? What about kids? I think if I make something forbidden than it'll seem all the more appealing, like if they want to try dairy and meat at a friends house or something I may let them, but I still will not buy cook nor prepare meat and other animal products. Do my conditions seem reasonable, and can they work? I only want to marry once, thanks!
