The flower girl will be at the rehearsal and the rehesrsal dinner with her parents. She has a younger brother and an infant. Should the younger brother and infant be invited to the rehearsal dinner as well? Thank you.
There is also a 4 year old ring bearer being invited(they are 3 hours away) along with his parents. Should his infant brother be included in the rehearsal dinner too? We are from out of state and are footing the bill.

I am planning my wedding around Alfred Angelo's colors espresso and tangelo. My bridesmaids are wearing the espresso with tangelo sash and the maid of honor's dress is opposite. That part was simple for me. The mens attire is the hard part. I can't decide if they should wear black or brown tuxs. Brown might be too much. And should they have the tangelo color in the vest? What would look best and be classy but still have a young feel with a splash of color, but not be over done.

We need an inexpensive place to rent for a wedding reception of 120. We already have a relative to cater the event. If possible we would like the option to have an outdoor wedding with an inside reception. We are on an extreamly limited budget.

My husband and I live in California and got married last week in my home-state of Rhode Island. All my family is there. His family flew out for the wedding. My family has little money, however, my father managed to pay $8,000 for the wedding. His family is loaded. Every attendee at the wedding was generous enough to give a gift. The only people who did not, were his mother and father (who divorced and re-married). WTF?!?!?!? Is this a new trend? The groom's father and family did not even give a card with congratulations!!! Is it wildly inappropriate for me to inform them of the hurt they have instilled in their son???

Hello,

Any thoughts would be helpful...

So my fiance and I have just started speaking about planning the wedding and the questions of who we are going to invite came up. Now here is the problem, he has a group of friends that include some family members that have been with him since child birth. All their families are really close. So they all have these girls that I at one time used to be close to. We were all a nice close happy group all our kids played together and we always were spending time together. Well to keep the story short I had a falling out with the girls, an issue accured that destroyed my trust and friendship with them and even had me and my fiance to breakup. Now he is still friends with them and i have strong feelings about not wanting them there to be a part of my wedding but that would be his friends would not go. We have not set anything is stone and we don't want the planning to turn into battles but I feel strongly about not wanting these people there, it's bad enough we see each other at mutual friends events.

Let me know what you think, or if you need more info...

thanks,

We were invited to my cousin's daughter's wedding, however, we live far away. We didn't attend the wedding. I sent the couple a gift of money about 2 weeks after the wedding. My parents said that I should have sent them the gift of money before they got married. What is the proper etiquette for sending a gift of money from someone who lives out of the country and is unable to attend the wedding? Also, how much money should someone put in an envelopeg if they're unable to attend?

I will be attending my brother's wedding on a mountain top in CO in July. My three children are in the wedding party and my sons will be wearing black tuxes and my daughter will be wearing a black cocktail type dress with white panel down the center with a black satin waist with bow in back. I have a tea length dress with white, dime size, polka dots and black satin trim for the waist and shoulder straps (whick are wide and gathered). My question is what should my husband wear to coordinate with the rest of us? We thought it would be a great opportunity for a family picture. Out children will be dressed more formally than ourselves, but we would still like to appear coordinated. My husband does not own a suit, and we wear considering getting him a sports jacket and pants, but cannot decide what colors. Could he get away with wearing black pants and shirt and tie sans the jacket? Please help--so flustered!

What would be a great song to dance with my Stepfather to at my reception? He has done the job he didnt have to do since I was 11 years old. He and my Mother have supported me both relatively and figuratively. He has shown no difference between myself and his own biological son. He has supported me in all my activities (which are to numerous to name) even Majorette in college. He and my Mother are paying for my education and my wedding. I just cant say enough and this only brushes the surface. I want a perfect song to try to tell him what I feel and show him my appreciation. Please help me find this song.

We are going to a family wedding in late June in California. The wedding is at 4 PM and followed by a dinner reception. The event is being held at a a golf course. It will probably be quite warm and many of the male guests won't wear jackets/ties. Is it appropriate for my husband to wear a light-weight cream colored, nubby textured sports jacket, tan slacks, pastel shirt and no tie? He's concerned that he might upset the bride or her family.

I told him he looks nothing like a bride, so he's probably just fine. ;-) He doesn't have a light-weight suit and wool will be way too warm.
