Thinking about doing a magazine 6-12 pages as our program for the wedding. About the couple, about the venue, games, etc. Has anyone else done this? How did guests feel about this? Is it worth the cost of printing?

I did a newspaper and everyone loved it. It was only 4 pages, plenty of templates on etsy. I bought nice glossy/thick 17x11 paper on amazon and my husband printed it at work. It is a nice keepsake for us now to remember the wedding day 💒

My friend did a newspaper and I thought it was cute. I did a crossword puzzle. We had QR codes linked to it and then two or three paper copies and pencils at each table. People got really into it and it was a great way to get conversation going at the tables amongst people who didn’t know each other.

Why? That is really what your website is for. Info on the venue things to do if you want to tell your story, introduce more info about your wedding party?

They are at the venue....what else do they need to know.while sitting there? Games? What, you want them doing puzzles while you walk down the aisle?

Maybe I am just not envisioning the value add. How much time do you think they will be sitting around waiting? I can think a lot better ways to spend your money than a 6 page color magazine for how ever many guests you have. It would be unique and if you are into graphic design and doing it was just so you that all your friends would immediately go....yes! Then maybe. But I would spend it on food, drink or entertainment upgrades ( or honeymoon)

Over the top.

We decided to do a photo session before the wedding for the two of us and family. The photographer and the location were amazing but the makeup was terrible, and because I was low on time, I couldn't fix it before the photos. The makeup artist make me look yellow! Idk if there's anything that could be done at this point, but feeling so disappointed :(

Have you talked about your wedding with coworkers? I made the mistake of saying I had to leave work a little early one day because I was going to do a tasting at my venue. That starts a debate on why one shouldn’t get married, how much wedding costs & what a waste it is, dresses are stupid because you only wear them once, etc. I haven’t talked about my wedding much, but I didn’t appreciate this. I ignored the negative comments and we moved the conversation along. Not talking about that anymore!

Hi everyone - We are thinking of changing our wedding photographer after unsatisfactory engagement photos and unsatisfactory communication (unresponsive after multiple attempts). We paid a $450 retainer which we know will be not refundable. However, we are not sure about other liability as we read our contract and found these 2 clauses (in comments). Please advise! Definitely not happy with her and would like to switch to another one but also want to make sure we make the right move. Thanks!
