Question of the day:
“My fiance and I are getting married next year and have asked our maid of honour, best man and parents to do a speech but don’t really want to have anyone speak because we’d like to keep the speeches to a minimum (more time for dancing!). There are quite a few other family members that wanted to speak though… Is there anything else they can do for us at the reception so that they feel like they have a special part? Suggestions welcome!” #mwquestion
Dilemma of the day:
“My friend is getting married in Feb next year and she has had her bridesmaids planned out before I even met her but I’ve been helping and supporting her throughout all of the wedding planning. I have never expected anything in return and I have been the only one who has always made an effort to come to all of her wedding planning events.
She recently told one of her bridesmaids to take a hike and has asked someone else, she said it was because the dress would fit the new girl she picked and she still wants me to be involved.
I am hurt that she didn’t consider me and now she’s giving me all these jobs to keep me occupied and make me feel “involved” but all it’s doing, is making me feel used. I no longer want to be apart of her celebrations as anything more than just a guest, how do I tell her this?” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“My fiance and I are having a destination wedding next year in Fiji and we’ve organised lots of family and friends time for the 2 weeks prior to our wedding in Fiji for anyone that can make it. Our honeymoon will also be in Fiji for the 2 weeks after the wedding. I’ve just found out that our in-laws are planning to do the same. They’re even wanting to stay in the same resort as us?? Would it be wrong for me to suggest that they come before instead? Should I talk to my fiance about it? What would you do?” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“My best friend’s boyfriend is planning to propose next year and he’s shown me a picture of the ring he’s designing. My friend has always dreamt of a simple ring and has always told me to make sure to drop the hint! His design is beautiful, but not her style. He’s really excited about doing this for her and I think it’s sweet that he’s putting so much effort in. Should I say something to him so that my friend gets her dream ring? Or should I let him give her his design? What would you do!?” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“My fiancé doesn’t want my 5 year old daughter to sit at the wedding party table although she’s the flower girl. He wants her to sit with my parents so I can concentrate on being a “bride” not a “parent”. I want her to be a part of the day and I want her to sit with us. Am I being unreasonable? That night we leave for our honeymoon for 7 days without her and I’m already feeling stressed about leaving her – she is very mummy focused.” #mwdilemma
