How do I match my shoes to my dress?
I'm not sure what kind of shoes will suit my dress. I am wearing a classic style gown and don't want a big heel. I want to be comfortable! I would prefer a neutral colour. Any advice on what types of shoes to go with? Peep toe/kitten heel? Any help would be much appreciated!

2 answersCan the videographer also just take a video of the entire ceremony start to finish?
Can the videographer take a video of the ceremony on a tripod but also do a edited mash up of the entire day? Or will this greatly increase the price? I love the edited videos, but would also like to remember our vows etc in their entirety. Thanks

30 answersHow does one handle someone bringing a baby to a kids-free wedding?
I didn't know what category to put this in, but my partner and I opted for a totally child-free wedding however we have a guest who has simply decided her grandchild ( a 23week baby) will be coming along - without asking anyone! The parents are invited to the wedding but only one set of grandparents. I know the other set is available to babysit (and would be delighted to) but the guest is simply insisting that the baby will just come along (and note - it's not the mother insisting, it's the grandmother). How do I have a conversation with her or at least my M-I-L (it's her cousin) to let her know that it is our wish NOT to have children attend - and there are other couples that are respecting these wishes! I think it's rude both to us and those guests that have respected our wish to simply assume that this is ok.

4 answersDoes it matter if you don't have an engagement party?
My partner and I got engaged the weekend before Christmas. We both then spent Christmas with our families in separate states and were individually spoilt and fussed over. Is it overly important to have an engagement party as our family and friends are all over the country. Would rather now dive in with wedding planning and save every penny for our wedding...but feeling like we may be missing an important part of being engaged without an engagement party??!
