1. +1's

   

   Discussion by FI Guy · March 2011 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Iowa-Quad Cities

   I'm new to the boards, and I'm trying to help my bride-to-be plan the wedding, but she tends to get into this mode of making decisions without me, which maybe that's normal, and there are somethings I'm not really that concerned with (linens, flowers, etc.).

   IMO HUGE etiquette no-no!!! It's extremely rude to tell guess that because they haven't been dating someone for X amount of time they're not allowed to bring them. All single friends should be allowed to bring a date, most of them won't but they have to be given the option. What's going to happen is people are going to…
