Found this article at theknot Money Talks If you're running into conflicts curbing your guest list, consider who's footing the bill. Because the bride's parents traditionally pay for the wedding, they usually have more say over the list. If the groom's side is paying, flip that. Or, if you're throwing your own bash, allocate a specific number to each side....
ok, so i'm in a solid relationship, where we both know that we want to spend the rest of our lives together. We've talked about marriage, and neither one of us is scared. She's on a 3 month trip, and she's brought up marriage in quite a few emails, saying stuff like she can't wait, etc and "im just going to have to be patient with you poping the question"...
Hello everyone......I have a question for anyone who would like to help me decide if a wedding planner is really worth it. I do work full-time, go to school, and help out my grandparents out during the week so it seems like a wedding planner would be the way to go. However, I am just not sure if they will make everything easier or more complicated. If anyone has suggestions let...
My girlfriend has just recently relocated back to NYC from London. I am British and she is American. The past 2 and half years have been tremendous but we have encountered issues in obtaining a visa for her to stay in the UK and work or me to work in the US.
Early in our relationship we both realized that this is the person that we wish to spend the rest of our lives with, but we do...
Hi. My Name is Bryan. I am planning on proposing to my girlfriend. We always joke about getting married and the future like being old together but she really has no clue this is coming. Not even an inkling. I have had a few ideas on how I wanted to pop the question. Two mainly stuck out in my mind as my favorites. Both are based on the same principles but while one is very extravagant, the other...
If she gets up at the same time each morning you could buy a radio ad and have it played at a specific time. When she wakes up she'll hear the ad and you'll be waiting with ring in hand.
Any week long vacation is always a good way to get her relaxed... Tell her to pack for a week long trip. Arrive in Mexico and enjoy some drinks on the beach. Over a nice dinner get the serenading mariachis to come visit you and pop the question right there in the middle of their performance.
If you live near a cornfield or own a corn field you could create a maze. Then at the end of the maze you could setup a nice country picnic maybe integrate a few other ideas from this forum to make your surprise truly unique!
First you'll need to come up with a saying, "Marry Me" is always a good one. Get a few eggs together and paint them as "pretty" as you can. Hearts, flowers etc... Then put a letter on each egg. Give her a basket with a note, you could tell her the easter egg hunt starts outside and there are 7 eggs to find. After she finds the eggs you'll have to...
What about sending her on a spa day? You could get a friend or two involved and send her away for a spa day. Invite the entire family over for dinner, when she gets home she'll be so surprised everyone is there and at some point during the evening you could pop the question... Hopefully she'll say yes!
Who's had the experience with planning out a wedding? I'm wondering if it makes sense to buy one of these guest list software packages or just do it ourselves? I found "R.S.V.P for weddings" and it seems like the way to go to help keep track of guests. Who's coming, who's not. Who sent this gift and that gift etc......
I'm currently building a whole new section of the site, an ecard section. Take a look and send your sweetheart an ecard. Don't forget to come back to the forum and tell us your experience!
I'm thinking for those of you up north with snow covered mountains or just snow covered backyards... You could plan out a nice proposal in the snow. Take her on a nature walk in the local mountains or hills and plan out your message in the snow. You could use almost anything to color the snow with your special...
If you live on a farm or know someone who does you'd probably have access to some hay bales. All you need now is a hill and some creativity! You could spell out your proposal on a hillside with hay bales. Then take your girl for a nice walk, horseback ride, ATV etc.. along the countryside.
Once you get her to the perfect viewing point show her your masterpiece and let the...
How long do you think it will be from your engagement to your wedding. Please explain why it will take you the time you specify and what your reasoning is.
IE: We are planning to get married in 1.5 years because our wedding budget required us to save $x dollars and it will take that long to save that amount of money. OR, The reception hall is booked through...

It seems lately I've noticed more and more people are looking for cash instead of gifts. I found a site that offers a registry but instead of buying the gift and sending it you can track what each person gave you through the registry. So if someone wanted a cutlery set instead of buying that set you could send them the $50 for that set and it would show that you bought them the...

When My man and I talked about getting married we were only one month into our relationship. He was unsure of how to do it. So skip two years and here is what has happened. I come home from work sick, I take a test and sure enough I'm pregnant. So the proposal I want i don't get. (I'm getting to that) So i tell him and well no matter what were here together for life....

I have been dating this wonderful woman since high school (almost 5 years), her name is Jackie. It is time to ask her to marry me.
I would like to ask her to marry me, but Jackie's brother and sister in law are having twins in January (well actually anytime between now and a month from now). I don't...
the engagement process is very important, so don't pussy out on the details and little things.
be sure to kneel. i mean, it seems cliche, but it's a must.
also, if you get a bitch ring, she'll probably think you're a bitch, and that's a no-no. so spend some money on it - splurge a little, it's your fxckin' engagement ring, after all.
I'm told this is a true story and I've heard and read it from multiple sources. Of course this doesn't mean it is true but if it is true this has to be the best payback for a cheater ever!
A wedding that took place at Clemson University. This was a huge wedding with over 300 guests. After the wedding at the reception, the groom got up on stage and took the...

I am also graduating from DeVry in March which is not in season for either fair and i think thats the best time to ask her as i will be moving down there after I graduate. I was thinking that maybe after...
Leave a note on the door saying what to do or follow. A trail of rose petals from the front door to in the bedroom. The clothing I wanted her to wear was on the bed. With a another note saying "For a romantic night together... meet me at our favorite place to eat". Make sure a car or limo is waiting for her outside.
She would have showed up at the restaurant, with...
Of course everyone wants to have a few photos taken to show off their new commitment!! But do you need to hire someone? Should they be digital or prints?
Sorry to all the professional photographers our there but I feel the professional should stick to the wedding and should be paid well for the wedding photos since those cannot be posed through the day. Have a friend snap a few...
Does everyone have an engagement party? What is considered the "norm"? If this is common, does the couple set this up or do the parents usually do something like this? Do you bring a gift?

When I first set this site up I told my family and a bunch of my friends about the site. They helped get the site looking great and functioning properly. Next, I told Laura's father thinking he would in turn tell her family and anyone else that would like to know about it.
Now I'm debating on telling Laura's best friend. I want her to know and be part of...
How sweet! I wish you the best in your soon to be engagement! For me, I'm an old fashioned kind of girl when it comes to romance and of course because I'm in the bath and body business the first thought that comes to my mind is pamper her.
You can tell her that you want her to have a day (a weekend or even a week depending on how long you want) that's...
Take her on a white water rafting excursion. Tell her the white water ahead is something your ready for and can't wait for the adventure.. propose right before your about to hit the rapids.
Take her for a long walk while its raining... Play like kids in the puddles and enjoy yourself like you have never before. Take her under a tree and wipe the rain from her face and yours and get down and propose!
You could fill dozens of balloon with rose petals, others with love poems and memories. Pop each balloon over her and have her showered with petals and love notes... One of them will have the ring... careful not to lose it!
Take a hot air balloon ride. You could either propose while fling high in the air or have the proposal happen on the ground while the balloon flies over. Obviously you can't predict completely where the balloon will fly so if you had the funds to do so you could put a sign inside the balloon itself.
Write it in rocks at your favorite dive spot. Take her diving to that special spot and point it out. Make sure its not too deep cause she will want to get to the surface quick!
When picking up your loved one from the airport. You could setup a sign with the words,. "Will you marry me". Wait for your loved one to get off the plane and have your sign ready. The guy next to you that has a sign that reads: "Mr. Jones" won't even be noticed by Mr. Jones. Hopefully he will still find his ride!
If your a kiteboarder or into flying large kites you could write your proposal on the underside of a lare kite. Fly it high overhead until she reads it. If shes a kiteboarder you could even write it on her kite and hope she sees it before she heads out in the water!!
