9 answersCan you still hire wedding dresses?
Is wedding dress hire still a thing? I don't like the idea of buying a dress I'll only wear once. There doesn't seem to be dress rental around, but I feel like it use to be? Would love some recommendations.

3 answersIs it OK to ask a celebrant to wear a costume at our wedding?
Hello! I've read some responses to celebrants dressing in a matching style etc. Is it rude to ask if they wouldn't mind wearing a costume? I've read somewhere a couple got married by batman and then the obvious Elvis option.. I like the idea of an iconic character and think it would be something to remember but wouldn't want to offend anyone or make it a bad experience. TIA

1 answersThis is embarrassing but how am I meant to go to the toilet in a mermaid wedding dress?
My dream dress is a super fitted mermaid wedding gown - but without sounding crass - how does one pee in a dress like this? I've seen ones with a lace up back - but that seems like it would take ages to undo and do back up. I've heard of other brides simply not going for the whole night! Not keen on that idea.

6 answersMy finance isn't comfortable being on video but I still want the speeches and special moments captured
My fiance is not keen on being in or having a videographer at our wedding (he is not that comfortable with the idea of being filmed - which is completely fine), but I would still like to capture the speeches and some special moments on video. Is it worth hiring a videographer? Any hints or tips on how to get these moments captured on video without paying for the full service of a videographer?
