171. Re: Married ladies, some comments on the RD?

     Well, first of all, the rehearsal is a surprisingly emotional time. It hits you that this whole WEDDING thing is now very real, it's HAPPENING tomorrow, and everyone there has unplugged from their own lives to plug into yours for just this one special weekend of time. Then your officiant goes over the ceremony, and you are…

     Thanks all!I'm looking into the clinic thing. I also need to find time to research arbitration. I know this sounds weird, but I think scaring the hell out of this photographer is the least effective method. Just with her personality... head in the sand. And guess what... the second bride (who did the unplugged thing and…

     I agree that this is not a good idea. It's kind of like when B&Gs want their guests to dress up so they put attire info on the invitation using a cute poem (*eyeroll*) The people who know how to dress for weddings will dress up. The people who don't care about any of that aren't going to care about the "cute" attire info…

     I'll be the voice of partial dissent here- I agree that you can't really dicatate anything during the reception. Let your photog work around the amateurs! And yes, your guests will capture parts of your wedding that your pro will miss! But you can *politely* request in your programs and via your officiant before the…

     Thanks Harry87, a little pleasantly decorated and framed sign right near the programs would work very well. I love the usage of the word "unplugged" it sounds better than "turn the $h!t off". It also helps because I don't want the wedding video to be a bunch of flashes here and there. I'll find a tastful way to word it do…

176. 2016 wedding season snarks

     

     

     Discussion by peachy13 · May 2016 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Snarky Brides

     I'm feeling extra snarky today because MDW was a blast and now I'm back at work, but with this time of year comes a fresh wedding season full of etiquette blunders and yucky planning! What 2016 is looking like so far in my circle: 1- HS friend had a wedding this past Saturday, during MDW. I wasn't invited but I was able to…

     Last night SO and I had an "unplugged" evening. We put our phones away and then sat next to each other reading the latest books we'd picked up from B&N. Ice skating, walking, hiking, card/board games, gym, cooking, talking, and walking down to our local pub for a drink or two are all things we like to do when Netflix…

     I'm glad for the end of the week. I'm so tired, I'm barely functional, but still have to be. Looking foward to finally taking my old bed to the dump. It has to go or Harley will never stop using it as a jungle gym at night. However, seeing how she played on it has given me some ideas about how to build a cat wall for her.…

     Discussion by SD210 · September 2013 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Nevada-Las Vegas

     Here are some photos from our Bellagio wedding and reception. We received over 1700 photos from Todd at Bently & Wilson, but I am going to post photos of the wedding details (furniture, flowers, ballroom, etc.) so future brides can see what the space looks like. I appologize if the pictures look a little off or smooshed,…

     We over-invited for the venue. It was in SIL's backyard, so the only thing we had to go on is that she'd had a cocktail party with 60 people and it was fine. We asked the caterer if we could fit everyone if we had 100% attendance. He claimed that we could. What he didn't tell us is that he was imagining people standing for…
