My fiancé has very low self esteem. She is the most beautiful girl in the world, and I know I am biased as her boyfriend, but she truly takes my breath away. I was talking to her about getting photos for announcements and planning a wedding photographer but she broke down crying. She doesn't want her picture taken at all. I want her to feel comfortable and safe on her special day, but I want to capture the memories to show our children one day. I am in a difficult place because I want to support her, but this is a very special day that can't be recreated. What should I do?

I am a bridesmaid in an upcoming wedding for a childhood friend. To celebrate the occasion, the other bridesmaids and I are throwing a bridal shower. Because I live out of state and won't be able to help out as much with the pre-shower errands, I volunteered to send out the invitations and keep track of the RSVPs. I received a guest list along with corresponding contact information from the bride and sent out the invitations. Although the invitation makes clear that the shower is hosted by all the bridesmaids, only my name and contact information appear in the RSVP line. Today I received a lengthy email from a potential guest declining the invitation and pointing out what poor taste it was to have invited her to a bridal shower for a wedding to which she was not invited. A quick conversation with the bride confirmed that several of the women on her suggested guest list have not been invited to the wedding. I am mortified and would never have sent them invitations if I had known they were not invited to the wedding. Knowing all of this, what is my best course of action at this point? Apologize profusely and let the woman know that the bride had requested she be invited to the shower and I wasn't aware she wasn't invited to the wedding? Say nothing and let the bride deal with it on her own terms? Other? Also what can or should be done to mitigate the situation with the other women who I invited not knowing they weren't invited to the wedding?

I love her, and she loves me too. It's not a shallow relationship. I took care of her when she was sick, alone and hopeless. I never asked her anything or touched her. Now after lots of time, we're trying to do it. She wanted too, but she panicks the very first moments, is ashamed if I see her naked and keeps closing her legs. Once we tried but she kept feeling anxious (I felt like she had to have a surgery, not male love) and looked at me scared. I get she's shy, but she's 22, girls her age have babies and she won't help me at all. I felt like I was raping her, felt so guilty and ashamed and stopped.

Instead of taking out a loan to make a large wedding (for all of our friends & relatives) in a fancy place. (The fancy wedding will only last a few hours & it'll take a few years to pay off the loan for the wedding)

I need your help creating a unique wedding hashtag. I have seen examples like "We'reTheMillers" or "ToHaveAndToHovey". I cannot decide what to do for Williams. Thanks!

I have a wedding coming up and this is the biggest problem. The guy who is getting married is a cousin of mine. He is about 5 years younger than me. I dont like him because he did something disrespectful to me a year ago and he never apologized. See some of my relatives got a weird personality which I can't explain. You just know that they are weird because you have to meet them and because they are relatives. If I have to explain, it is like a 10 year story which nobody can write. So my motto has been "stay away from negative people". Should I come to this SOB wedding and feel the pressure? PS: note that they are weird and not stupid. Because I can live with stupid people. But it is hard to talk with weird people. and BTW we are all working adults what do you think about this? this cousin of mine when he was still dating with his (now) fiance, he always brings his entire family to his dates. They would walk in a mall and eat together in a group of 6 with his married brother. He is 36 years old and he did this every week..... weird.... @patricia: "Be a role model, maybe.....?" yes if the people are normal but if you do it to a weird person, would it make any change? do they even realize?
