    Also, congrats on your engagement!  It's a crazy time, planning a wedding.  I keep an eye on several boards including this one to make sure I don't slip up too much, but don't take offense to what some people will say.  A lot of times they will be the helpful people to keep you (a bride) in check.  I vent a lot of ideas, questions off of my month board so not to overwhelm my family, BM, FI with little issues.  I also lurk on some of the other boards for a good laugh or to remind myself that my FMIL's ideas really are that bad!  ;)  I would recommend posting an intro to your month board too....

    Welcome.

    A "troll" is someone who creates a fake account so they can post things with the intention of riling everyone up. You've posted so many things that go against etiquette that it's easy to think you're having fun with everyone.

    If you're for real, then you might want to read the stickies (they have a push pin next to them) on every board to get some tips and get a feel for the site. You can also post your story on the "Just Engaged" board so everyone can congratulate you and ooh and ahh over your ring.

    Since this is the etiquette board, you're going to get a lot of responses regarding etiquette. There are other boards dedicated to ceremony ideas, budget, reception, wedding party, etc. If you need specific tips on those items, I recommend posting a thread on the appropriate board. You can find a lot of great tips and ideas on every board, so take some time to look around.

    I appreciate your explanation of the troll thing. I'm sorry that I'm etiquette dumb... I thought I had better etiquette than most my family and friends so apparently I still have a lot to learn. As far as telling me where to post I'll take that with a grain of salt but like other people have mentioned I am checking out the stickes!

    Yes they are.  I originally found them on Nordstroms for about $200 and they were in my BMs' price range, but I also found a website that is wholesale so they are going to be about $130 each since I don't want my girls to spend any more than they already are.  Fingers crossed they turn out great! 

    On that note, I think I'm going to go back to work because this discussion has gotten heated!  hehe  Good luck all!

    "I'm so happy my FI shelled out for an expensive ring" and "I'm not going to pick bridesmaids that I don't think have the ability to pay for a $300+ BM dress." Thinking along those lines, maybe OP should only invite those to her wedding who can afford to give her an expensive gift.

    This will be a good one.

    Calm down and watch it.  I don't like your suggestion or the response you made to the Groom.  Men are welcome on this board, and there's nothing wrong with being metro.
