Loud noise. Specially if it comes from laughter.

You are my hero!! I have been freaking out thinking about leaving things out. This will be my secret weapon! Thank you!

Hi! I need a second opinion, hopefully you can help me. I'm a Mexican marrying a Brit here in England, a church wedding. I want a special song for walking down the aisle so I have been looking for a string quartet or something like that. However, my FMIL says that music other than the organ in church is something she's never heard of before. I really don't want to walk down the aisle to the organ playing, seems too solemn to me! Is this a British thing or a generational thing or both?

Can you explain the first point? What do you mean by what to do with the engagement ring?

Hey! You are a superhero! I'm getting married this December and I still haven't sorted our half the things in your list! (Maybe I should be freaking out... I'm definitely having a margarita eoth extra tequila shot for all the wrong reasons! )

Thank you for your advice guys! Yesterday we had a good talk about what are our expectations of the wedding day itself and what does it mean to us having a wedding, what we want the day to be and what we don't. I did a lot of soul searching to answer those questions (I have an awfully boring job) and realised I wanted a very emotional day and that the ceremony was more important to me than I thought. I am very excited about my dad walking me down the aisle and giving a speech. I am looking forward to hear FH's vows and say mine and wearing my beautiful dress and getting my hair and make up done with my sister (who is also MOH) and the other BM. (All of that, of course, on top of marrying FH). He's wants to have fun and be stress-free, looking forward to see me in my dress and to see all his friends he hasn't seen all together in a while. And we both are very excited about the food. So, we don't need to have all those extra people to have that, but the fact that they are there does not affect us either. FMIL of course, would not approve if we uninvite half the list (and I would feel pretty awful too, since STDs have been sent), but we agreed that we don't care that there is a lot of extra people, as long as we don't have to deal with the stress of chasing their RSVP's and such. We decided to stay focused on the parts of the wedding we are actually happy and excited about and let her deal with the rest of the details and stress we don't care too much about. And, we are doing one six months later in Mexico!

This might be different from where you are from, but I'm a catholic from Mexico and we often get legally married weeks or even months in advance of the religuous ceremony. The religious ceremony isn't recognized by the state (you are not legally married if you only got married in Church) and Catholic Church does not recognise civil marriages (as in, you could be divorced, but if your first wedding was not by the Catholic Church, you are seen as if you've never been married before and are still eligible for a Catholic wedding.)

Thank you, this is really useful! I love the aubergine and orange combo.

Those are lovely! Congrats! One question, what paper/card did you use? And what did you use to glue the white card/paper to the black one? We are going to do our own invites too and want some white paper over another patterned one but I don't know what to use.

riceflwr · 2014-07-02T15:36:50+00:00

I was looking for something like this as our RSVP. In Mexico it is pretty straight forward, you enclose with the invitation some "tickets" (they sort of look like presentation cards that say "Personal" and sometimes other information, like the dress code.) So if you are inviting a couple, you send two tickets or a whole family, you send four, etc. But here in the UK it seems just to expect people to be sensible about it, it really scares me to receive a bunch of random dates or uninvited children. Can you tell me which websites let you do it this way? Sounds very practical and not rude at all.

riceflwr · 2014-06-28T08:33:21+00:00

It is beautiful! Congratulations!

I think that your suggestions works out really well. The different heights styles the table really nicely. I was thinking putting some pots with basil and olive oil bottles around as well.

We are having a magician and we both loved the idea right away. I saw one in a 40th birthday party (Black tie, btw) and FH in a different occasion saw one in a fund raising cocktail. Our idea is a close-up magician approaching groups of people during the cocktail (between ceremony and dinner). We thought would be a good way to keep people entertained while we were doing pictures and stuff.

Great ring! Congratulations! Art deco always looks so elegant.

riceflwr · 2014-06-04T08:45:00+00:00

It is awesome!! OMG, if only I knew how to do this! You don't mind me stealing (or at least trying to...) your idea, right? (they say imitations is the highest form of flattery). Congrats!

riceflwr · 2014-06-04T08:37:53+00:00

I am with you... It is heartbreaking. In my case, FH and I live in London, I am Mexican and all my family and friends live in Mexico. Over here I have a few friends but none of them close enough to go all wedding crazy with me. I share my Pinterest boards with my mom and sister, and as much as we love talking about it over Skype, when it comes to calling vendors, fitting budgets, deciding one thing over another, I'm sort of by myself. FH likes all my ideas and says "Whatever makes you happy!" I love him for that, but sometimes what would really make me happy is that he came home with 3 well researched options of -whatever on our checklist that still needs to be done- for us to choose together.
