My cousin is getting married and she's never been big on being the center of attention and simply doesn't want to spend a lot of money on a wedding and feel nervous the whole time as she had put it to me. More power to her I say, but she was ts to get married in a courthouse with very little people and no special dressing up, but wants to have the reception like party later with the whole family. And that's fine too, but are people supposed to bring gifts? Will there be hurt feelings that there wasn't a wedding? I'm fine with what she is doing but she's already getting some backlash for it from her fiancé family. Anyone see anything wrong with getting married, with no wedding, but having a reception like party later?

Me and my fiancé are planning on getting married at the court before he deploys as he is in the military. what I wanted to know is if it was okay to go ahead and get married at the court before he deploys then when he returns have the "white dress" wedding? (also he leaves in like two months) so planning the white dress wedding would be impossible.

Just heard about the engagement last week, bridal shower is next week, theres a reception in three weeks, still havent heard a wedding date. What, does my sister just not think anyone has a life outside of school? Weddings probably in four weeks and no invitations have been sent out yet, how long should an engagement really be? She's 18, a freshman. Has only known the guy for five months. I just got a text message telling me that she's ordered me an orange bridesmaid dress and expects me to buy a jacket and shoes she has picked out (ugliest color). Never asked me if I even wanted a part or could come. I've met this guy twice. He has an exwife, no job, no car, no apartment, and a child he doesn't have custody of. I think that's a bit much for an 18 year old to handle. Also, their planning to live with his dad. I think its lame, but is a no notice wedding with plans being made for me rude? I think she could have at asked my schedule before buying a dress. well, probably in three weeks actually, but even if I ask her, saying I have stuff planned for the next eight weeks she wont tell me. four week engagement is what i meant to type. she's my sister by the way, and I'm sure our grandmother would have loved to be able to come. She's being released from the hospital probably a week after this shotgun wedding. She was very rude and confrontational when I expressed that I knew nothing and that I needed to know what she had planned for me if she wanted me to follow through on it. She was all, its my wedding its planned and people are coming. I said that didn't help. All I know now is that she's demanding. Still hasn't picked a date but just expects me to go with it. Refuses to pick one...told me it was none of my business when her wedding is even though she expects me to be there. I have final exams in the next couple weeks and have no idea what i could even do about this. What if she puts it on my exam date, I just look like a ***** for not showing because nobody would know why? (its obvious that none of us are thrilled for her)

My aunt is getting married this July and I will be a hostess. The wedding color is coral. I am having trouble finding a coral dress that I like, and I am unfamiliar with wedding attire. I know that it is the bride's big day, but the reason why I am stressing over finding something that I like is because I want to wear something that makes me feel comfortable and confident. I want to do a great job helping out in the wedding. I really like the High-Low style. If this dress is not a good hostess dress, any tips or pictures of dresses would be great! I will be sure to see if the final dress I choose has my aunt's approval. Thanks! http://www.amazon.com/Shangshiyu-Chiffon-Strapless-Asymmetry-Bridesmaid/dp/B00WJWCCXA/ref=sr_1_49?ie=UTF8&qid=1460480280&sr=8-49&keywords=coral+high+low+dress At my aunt's wedding, hostesses can wear black, white, or coral. I chose coral because I don't want to receive any backlash for ruining the wedding or pictures because I wore white or black.

I will be getting married in March 2017.. Some people have said to register right away but will items still be in stock and should I wait closer to when shower would be? Which would most likely be late fall. When did you register? Thanks!!!

Ok so here's the deal. My sister is getting married, I'm her maid of honor. She's having a small intamite wedding. But she wants a big bridal shower. She wants to include those she can't at the wedding. Is that okay? Or is it wrong? She made it clear that she doesn't care about the gifts. She just wants a big party with everyone she can't invite to the wedding. Also it's a destination wedding. She can't invite everyone she wants to so she wants to have a party with those she can't invite.
