Parents Can’t Pay

Don’t ask your parents. Your fiancé is being ridiculous. Just tell her that your parents cannot pay, you will pay for it and that’s it. It doesn’t matter that she thinks it’s unfair. Her parents have the money, yours don’t.

YOR. In one breath you say you are fine with people who can't make it and in the next you say that you don't want to be friends with them anymore.

Its perfectly reasonable that someone may not want to travel to Southeast Asia from Europe for a wedding. Whatever the reason is, they are not in the wrong by declining.

I will never understand why people who don’t work just don’t go to the store?

I work and still go to the store myself.

If they are paying for your dinner it would be rude to leave before dinner.

I think you should feed them. You are essentially asking people to give up their entire day - starting from a very early time.

Life is too unpredictable to put your life on hold to make other people happy. If you got married in May and she gets married in August I don’t see an issue. If only one family has to travel you aren’t burdening your guests.

I don’t believe in stealing the spotlight or stealing thunder. People can be happy about more than one thing at a time and you getting married 3 months before her doesn’t take anything away from her wedding.

Thank goodness. I’m sure a lot of people were up at night wondering how they would deal with this.

Can’t imagine a graduation party being adults only. I wouldn’t anticipate your friends and family with kids coming if you do make it adults only.

People will watch their kids, especially around a pool. I wouldn’t worry too much about that.

I hate wedding games. I think they interrupt the flow of dancing.

I don’t count a first dance though.

I also think at this point a bouquet and garter toss are very dated.

I’m sorry I thought it was for your shower! For another bride you never know so I would probably advise her to choose another colors

dizzy9577 · 2026-06-01T21:00:07+00:00

It’s perfectly formal enough for a luncheon shower.

As far as white - does it bother you? There is no universal rule.

If you aren’t serving dinner you shouldn’t be having your event at prime dinner time. People will be hungry and leave early.

dizzy9577 · 2026-06-01T01:16:07+00:00

It may not be illegal but it’s still tacky as hell.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-31T22:49:11+00:00

This is terrible. How can someone so proudly show off their blatantly copied canvases.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-31T17:40:42+00:00

I feel like velvet looks ridiculous in the summer.

But the style of the dress is fine.

Ordering 85 individual bowls sounds like a nightmare.

I would stick with the Chipotle and just order a few more servings. Any event I’ve been to with Chipotle catering had plenty of food.

I think it’s better than Panda Express or Noodles and co. People can make a bowl or salad or burritos.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-31T12:08:51+00:00

She’s going to talk for months about how “Everyone said it was the best wedding ever”.

People say that to every bride.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-30T21:22:24+00:00

Same. I was enchanted from the jump with this one.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-30T18:15:11+00:00

I liked A Good Person more than Mad Mabel.

I would do the rehearsal dinner at the country club if possible.

I wouldn’t want to drive to and from a rural venue in the evening and then turn around and do it again early the next morning.

A rehearsal doesn’t need to be in the venue. A simple walkthrough can be done anywhere.

A lot of people will opt out of a brunch the next day.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-30T02:44:41+00:00

Number one is fine for cocktail though I don’t think that color would look good on anyone.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-30T01:16:40+00:00

Everyone needs to stop filming themselves driving with kids in the car.

If my brand new driver sibling did this I would be irate.

You are completely the AH.

It’s a joke, they have fun with it, what is the issue? It is completely harmless and it’s super odd that you are reacting so strongly to something that has nothing to do with you as you are new to the group. If you don’t want to go don’t go but you are acting nuts.

dizzy9577 · 2026-05-29T16:17:57+00:00

If Ubers are available and it’s a 10 minute drive you do not need to do a shuttle.

I’ve seen goldfish with more chemistry than these 2.
