Dilemma Of The Day Recap #12

Modern Wedding Posted: November 19, 2016

Dilemma Recap IntroImage2

Question of the day:

“My fiance and I are starting to think about venues for our wedding. We’ve always wanted an outdoor wedding but have also wanted a winter wedding. Will it be too cold to have our ceremony outside in the Hunter Valley in Winter? Has anyone ever been to a wedding in that region in winter? Thanks.” #mwquestion

Question of the day:

“I just got the invitation to my future SIL’s kitchen tea and the invitation has asked us not to bring gifts. My mother and I weren’t going to bring anything, but I’ve heard that some of the brides friends and family are bringing gifts. Some people are even pooling together to buy a new crystalware set. We’re now not sure whether we listen to what the invite says or whether we bring a gift. If we do, what should we bring? Any suggestions welcome!” #mwquestion

Question of the day:

“My fiancee and I are starting to write up our guest list for the wedding and it’s getting pretty long. We had quite a big engagement party and invited a lot of distant family and new friends. Is there a rule that who you invite to your engagement party should also be invited to the wedding? We had so many people attend our engagement party that it’s starting to look like we’ll have a very costly wedding. In a perfect world we’d love to invite all the same people. Will those people be upset if they don’t get an invite?” #mwquestion

Dilemma of the Day:

“I’m getting Married in August 2017 and not sure whether to have my little Sister In-Law as my Bridesmaid. I have already told her she is in. She’s 13 and hasn’t done anything wrong, but there are quiet big issues that are getting very nasty as her mother ( my Soon to be mother in-law), constantly keeps abusing me and being aggressively nasty and so on. I’ve had enough. My partner still wants her in and doesn’t see why there should be an issue, but on the other hand I’m the one that has to deal with her mother. Please Help! #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the Day:

“Just wondering what is the correct etiquette for inviting people to your hens night? I’ve been asked to put together a list of females for my Maid of Honor so she can start organising my hens night, but there are a few people i would like to come to my hens night but I didn’t invite to our wedding for various reasons. Would it be wrong/rude to invite them to the hens night and not the wedding??” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“We’ve set the date for our wedding next year and my Maid of Honour has just found out she is pregnant and due the week of our wedding! She is my best friend and I definitely want her to be standing by my side but I know that she’ll either be heavily pregnant or just given birth. What do I do? We’ve already sent out save-the-dates. Should I reschedule the wedding? I wasn’t planning on having any other bridesmaids.” #mwdilemma
