Dilemma of the day:
“I’m a bridesmaid for my future SIL and I’m so happy to have been asked, but I’ve just found out that I’m pregnant and due about a month before the wedding. The problem is this is when most of the pre-wedding celebrations are happening and the MOH has already told us all the things we’ll need to do to help. This was all fine before I found out I was pregnant but now I don’t feel comfortable having all that responsibility. Should I offer not to be a bridesmaid? Or maybe ask if someone can step in for the pre-wedding party duties? I’m not sure what would be the right thing to do in this situation. Advice please!” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“I have a dilemma and I’m losing my mind. I’m planning a wedding and I’m trying to incorporate my children and my step children’s ideas into the wedding, but my step daughter is (I feel) pushing the boundaries. She is expecting us to include her mother into the wedding and has went so far to invite her herself. Her mother has been absolutely horrible to me since we started dating, even going so far as to insinuate that I shouldn’t be trusted to be alone with their daughter as I will hurt her. We had to reschedule our cake testing appointment on 3 separate occasions because she threw a fit because she was not there but when given the option she made light of why she wasn’t there to begin with. And the appointment ended up being a complete embarrassment because she completely embarrassed us in front of the lady, being ignorant and insulting to her about the cakes she had us testing. My fiancé and I have already picked out our own colors for our wedding and my step daughter consistently throws a fit that we won’t use the colors that her parents had at their wedding or the style of dresses they had for their bridesmaids. It’s getting to be too much to handle. I’m losing my mind and I seriously need some advice! Please!!!!!!!” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“Me and my fiancé are planning a wedding two years from now but we can’t seem to figure out where the wedding will be. I’m from Japan and my fiancé is from Mexico. We want an intimate wedding but the travel expenses will be too high for both families if it’s from Japan to Mexico and vice versa. Any advice on this matter please?” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“My fiance and I keep going in circles when deciding on what wedding favours to give our guests. We were going to hand make our favours but don’t want to stress about having to make them all, then we were thinking of something small but the cost keeps adding up because we have 180 guests. Then we had friends telling us we didn’t need to give favours at all. We’re lost! Has anyone ever been to a wedding without wedding favours or received anything really creative that they loved? Help!” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“My fiancé and I are trying to choose our style of wedding food and we really like the idea of having a banquet where there are share plates in the middle of tables. Our concern is that it might be a little bit messy and potentially not as filling as an alternate drop. I’m also worried some people will eat more than their share and others will miss out. We like it because we both love antipasto type food, it’s a little bit different and will look amazing on the tables. Has anyone done this before? Does it work?” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“I wanted a small wedding but with my family travelling from overseas and all the family friends that are like family to us in Melbourne its hard to keep numbers down. My fiancé is from a small family and unfortunately his parents are not involved in the wedding. He doesn’t feel comfortable having so many people there on the day a lot of which he doesn’t know. I’m really struggling with the balance of keeping my parents happy and my fiancé. Any advice greatly appreciated!” #mwdilemma
