Dilemma of the day:
“I have a wedding ceremony dilemma. Could you help? My fiancé and I disagree and I’d like compromise ideas. He wants a ceremony, specifically noting exchanging vows. I agree on exchange vows except I tend to find ceremonies extremely boring. No offense! They can be very beautiful, but… I’m sure it’d be less boring being the one walking down the isle but the idea still doesn’t feel perfect for my own wedding. I’d be happy to completely skip walking down an isle. I don’t need multiple readings with special music in between. I want it relaxed and comfortable. He says he wants something “big and special” but hasn’t specified much more than that. He’s typically a very laid back person so him saying so was surprising but I’m guessing his “big and special” isn’t that extravagant. Thanks so much for any ideas!” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“I’m planning on proposing to my girlfriend tomorrow on Valentine’s Day. I’ve asked her parents and they’ve said yes! Some of our friends are in on it too, I’ve planned a picnic on a private beach and they’re going to help decorate. My girlfriend is usually very sentimental and loves Valentine’s day but yesterday she told me that she thinks a proposal on Valentine’s Day would be too cheesy. My heart sank. She has no idea that’s what I was planning. I’ve already booked a boat and got the food. What do I do?” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“Help I’m the cousin of the bride and maid of honour and her sister is the second bridesmaid. I am very grateful that I’m in her party but I feel that her sister should have been first and me second. She’s told me I need to write a speech but I hate talking in public and I hate speeches. Her sister (even though she was not at the engagement) got her dad to read a massive speech and I could never do that nor top it… I guess I feel she should have been maid of honour…
I also have two kids and no one else has kids and I’m being pushed to throw the bridal shower with no help. Do I have to write a speech and what would you do?” #mwdilemma
Dilemma of the day:
“I’m the MOH for my best friend and we’re having an issue with her sister-in-law to be. She is also in the bridal party but is kind of taking over the entire planning process. The couple only got engaged over Christmas and she already has suggestions for hens, kitchen tea and bridesmaid fittings, all of which aren’t her style. The bride has told me that she is overwhelmed but doesn’t want to tell her that she doesn’t like her ideas, so she’s asked me to try and tell her. I don’t want to upset her either….. how do I let her down lightly without outing the bride! Help!” #mwdilemmaoftheday
Dilemma of the day:
“One of my bridesmaids is a little bit larger than the rest of the group, with this in mind, I have told the girls that they can wear whatever they want as long as it’s charcoal grey and not full length. We’ve all been shopping together and 4/5 bridesmaids all love this one dress in particular. They’ve asked if they can all wear it. I don’t mind if they all wear the same dress and I’m glad they’ve found something they really like but I can tell that my friend who is a little bit larger doesn’t feel comfortable in it. I want all of my bridesmaids to look and feel their best on the day. What can I do to help my friend?” #mwdilemma
