Good music 🎶
I usually set my expectations lower on wedding food tbh

I am focusing on what I and my SO care most in wedding planning instead of trying to guess and than accommodate what others want. For example, good food is a high priority for us, and I don’t care much about decor. Some people would appreciate our choices and some won’t, but you can never please everyone.

Hi all!

My fiancé & I are both looking to do a destination wedding as we want to keep our costs down since we’re moving into a new home soon. We were thinking of getting married sometime after Easter of 2023 & have been looking into Cancun but are open to anywhere with an all-inclusive resort that has good food + nice beach. It would be a Hindu ceremony but normal style reception for approximately 80-100 guests and were hoping to keep it at 10-15K.

Any help is appreciated!

Favorite unexpected/thoughtful gift? Or creative ideas? My childhood best friend’s bridal shower is coming up.

People RSVP yes, confirm their details and drop out with only a few weeks to go! We are a destination wedding, and I can’t believe how many people - last minute- are not coming after telling us their flights / accom were booked, coming to Bach party etc! Trying to focus more on the people who ARE coming, but it’s quite upsetting to see people drop out after you’ve confirmed final numbers / food orders etc. How did you handle this?

Walking down the aisle!
I (personally) don’t want anyone to walk me down the aisle. I view it as an antiquated and patriarchal tradition. No one is “giving me away”, I’m in my 30s and have been independent for a decade.

But I’m afraid of hurting my dad’s feelings, I don’t want him to feel slighted or miss something he has been looking forward to (he’s a very proud man and it would mean a lot to him).
Any way to reframe it from being “given away”? Do I view as “something for dad, not me”? Ty!
