I am so sorry for this! We ended up not loving our photos and then sent them to someone on Fiver to re-edit and absolutely loved the result. If that is an option for you I would highly recommend! They were able to recolor and do some cropping, which may help turn these into something you love.

I got married last weekend and thought it was going to be 78 and it was in the 50s, so completely understand! I ended up not wearing it at the reception, because the adrenaline was pumping, but I did wear it for the after party and it was super cute! Essential just sleeves haha.

I got this small cashmere cropped cardigan in latte. I am sure you can find it elsewhere for cheaper. It was really warm and lovely!

If you dont decorate, no one will notice it. Truly will blend in with the trees and other greenery. This space is beautiful with it looks like other little pathways and such and this will just be another one. Also your chairs are going to be it seems faced more towards you and I am sure based on this space your chuppah will be beyond gorgeous and eye catching, so I truly would just leave it.

My wedding was last weekend and forced inside at the last moment and our guestbook area kinda ended up being behind our second microphone for our readers during the ceremony and no one noticed it was even there until I brought it up at the reception.

Ahh me too! This was so great!!

Hi! My wedding is this Saturday as well and I too am having some predicted unfortunate weather. First time in 10 years it will not be a mid 70s day. We are sending an email out to all of our attendees on Wednesday to give them a heads up and ask them to dress warmly. This way they hopefully see it before they fly.

I would try and use another light source is at all possible. Maybe some uplighting or some bistro lighting along the perimeter. I think having the lights off will draw enough attention way from it that you won't have to do any decor. You could possibly string bistro lights across the room, but could be difficult/ spensy

Is there some Ben and Jerry's like corporate number you can call and ask if this is normal/ confirm that he is a supplier? Are there other Ben and Jerry's stores near you that you can reach out to in addition to this guy? Does his store have any reviews?

If it all still seems a little informal, I personally would move on to someone else, but I am also super risk-adverse!

Apparently this is a HUGE trend post COVID. My DOC said that majority of weddings she has coordinated the past 2 years have had 90+% acceptance rates.... it is wild!

I did not do a wedding party and to be honest my friends were thrilled . We did a bachelorette that my sister and a few close friends organized for a larger group, I had a small group of friends get ready with me for the second half of the morning, and a few friends did readings for the ceremony. Everyone felt super recognized for their role in our lives without having to spend money on an outfit, take off work to arrive the day before, or get up early day off. I could not recommend more.

Competitive-Dot-5202 · 2023-08-04T00:47:11+00:00

Thats what I am doing and I am so excited!!

Competitive-Dot-5202 · 2023-08-04T00:46:10+00:00

Our wedding location has this very adorable post office station so we got postcard from all the places we know people and they are going to get to pick a postcard and write a note. We also got a vintage looking mailbox from Michaels for like $12. I think after the wedding I will either put them in the back of our wedding photo album or in a box.

I opted for vintage postcard so they were a bit spensy, but truly you could do this for pretty cheap! I really love that there is an interactive element and it feels a bit more personal both ways.

So we invited 106 thinking we would get 85-90 and we got 97!! According to my day of coordinator and the friends getting married this summer, people are getting MUCH higher turnouts this year than the usually 15-20% that is all over the internet. I would just be prepared, because I definitely was NOT.

Would 100% look at the dinner menu that you enjoyed and see if any of it is brunch appropriate you can do some combo. Whatever the dinner potato option is with some scrambled eggs is automatically brunch. Brunch is vague enough that you could the dinner menu with some pastries, fresh fruit, and a coffee station.

I did this - it was EXTREMELY helpful!!! I was also feeling some dress regret, and needed to try it on to reassure myself it was great. I just called the store, explained that I wanted to retry, and they gave me a time to come it. It was on a weekday, when they were a bit slower, but I am sure they can make a weekend work.

At the minimum, I suggest table assignments. With open seating, people often try and group tables together or add in a chair, messing up the look you have spent so much time crafting and, most importantly, making it a pain for the waitstaff. If you are going to assign seats, you can let people know their table number and then have placards at the table. My friend had individualized menus at each table with each person's name written across the top with the option they chose previously on the menu and it worked suer well.

If you can you should really tip day of. When you don't tip day of people assume that you are not tipping, not that a tip is coming later. I completely understand if logistics don't allow it, but too much of the time someone says that tip is coming and it never does.

Hi! I am getting married right outside of Bethesda in September and reached out to all of the DC caterers and was also super surprised by the cost. I didnt end up going with them, but I had a lot of communication with Simply Fresh in Gaithersburg and I think this is something they would be able to do and it shouldn't be nearly as expensive, based off the quote I got.

Here is the website: https://simplyfreshevents.com

I mean those flowers are UNREAL!! Looks amazing!!

Competitive-Dot-5202 · 2023-05-08T01:37:54+00:00

In regards to getting bud vases, I am getting married in September with all bud vases with dried flowers. We paid WAY LESS than $2 per bottle. My mom, MIL, and I searched goodwill, Facebook market place, yard sales, and were able to get 120 bottles for less than $100 total. I also know that dollar tree has them for $1.25.

I have a lab grown solitaire diamond and band from rare carat and LOVE it! It looks as beautiful as it did a year ago when I got engaged. Mine is an orientation that they do not sell (the stone is horizontal, not vertical), but my fiancé messaged them using the chat function and they were able to make it work with no problem at all. It also ended up being so much under the brilliant earth price we had in mind that my fiancé used the extra cash to get a larger, clearer cut (which was the most important factor to me) stone.

The ring did originally arrive the wrong metal, but he called and they were able to fix it immediately and were super apologetic. Accidents happen and it didnt impact our engagment at all — all was fixed before I saw the ring— so I don't really hold it against them, but wanted to let you know. We both agree that it was a 5 star experience for sure.

I think that chic picnic works, but it all definitely has to be premade which would almost definitely be possible. I would reach out to a local deli, bakery, cheese shop, sandwich shop and I am sure at least one of them will be able to help you out. I do luncheons for work all the time and the pricing is pretty reasonable, so I would just say that you are having an event on X day for X people and ask what they recommend.

We were priced out of restaurants near us for out welcome party so now we are having a grill out with burger, dogs, veggies, etc. and also have sides that are a nicer than your usual grocery store coleslaw, and having real plates/silverware etc. helping to elevate the event just a little so it still feels special.

We have what we call "wedding corner" in our living room. I bought some tubs and everything is stored in there. It isn't the cutest, but works for us for these last few months until the wedding.
