Dilemma Of The Day Recap #14

Modern Wedding Posted: December 3, 2016

D I L E M M A   R E C A P   # 1 4 .

Dilemma Recap IntroImage2

Dilemma of the day:

“I love the idea of having a ‘reception dress’ but am scared that it’s a little over the top to have two dresses for one day. Has anyone else done this before? What did the people at your wedding think?”  #mwdilemma

Question of the day: “What’s the best wedding you’ve been to? What elements made it so great?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“My fiancé and I have a lot of friends with children. We are hoping to find a way to let our guests know that kids won’t be invited to the wedding, but I don’t know where to daw the line. I want to invite our three godchildren as their parents are very close to us (and represented in the bridal party). I’d rather not invite my cousin’s children as we don’t see them very often. How do we go about this? It’s weird because I know usually if you only allow a few kids to the wedding, it’s family members only. What should I do?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“Is there a rule on inviting work colleagues to your wedding reception? The dilemma I have is there’s only a few I’d like to invite even though I get on alright with all of them.
Aside from going over my numbers, is it offensive to only invite some and not others? It’s nothing personal I just can’t invite all of them.
My MOH says invite who I want if those not invited feel offended then it’s not my fault. But I feel I should say sorry to those I don’t invite but I can’t go over my numbers!
What should I do?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“I’ve just gotten engaged and my mum is over the moon! She has all these ideas for things we could do and she wants to help as much as she can. We are really close and normally share everything. The problem is, I can see her good intentions becoming a big headache for my partner and I. I want her to be involved but I don’t want her to takeover the wedding. What should I do?” #mwdilemma
