  1. if it's a party after your reception, guests should have no problem shelling out for that part since you paid for the whole reception
  2. go for it - it will help out with costs so it's worth it
  3. yes, the events grouping makes so much sense, thanks for suggesting!
  4. under those circumstances, I think it's totally warranted to pay for their guest passes
  5. we're just goingt to rent a hall and have a big dance party where you can buy alcohol - cheap for us, fun for the guests and this way i think we will make the most profit to put towards our wedding
  6. ASt rthe end of the day, you have to do what is right for you and your FI - after all, you only get to do this once, so you might as well do it right by you
  7. I think it's totally acceptable, and if you have guests who can't make it to the DW, at least they could attend this party
  8. the white balloons release it such a nice idea along with the moment of silence
  9. i am going to run these ideas by my MOH who is bringing her kids so she can strategize beforehand
  10. $10 sounds about right - I like the idea of an extra $2 for at-the-door tix
  11. I'm in the same situation! I have 5 younger siblings who don't have a lot of money (in school, young, etc.) and some of which have significant others, and I'm not sure who to help and by how much, but I think I will wait and see what they come up with and then help out for whoever couldn't otherwise make it
  12. We're doing the legal ceremony on hopme soil and inviting all the old people who won't be able to travel to our DW - that way they can be involved in some of the celebration
  13. I used weduary but it was a bust because not everyone had FB, and I didn't realize you needed to have it before I sent out the invites (since you can send out invited from the site to email addys as well as FB friends) So that was frustrating
  14. i'm so sorry for your loss, I know how hard that struggle is and you are very brave for going ahead with your wedding in spite of everything. I am going to leave an open chair at the front of the ceremony for my mom - then I know she is there is spirit, but I don't have to deal with people coming up to me after the ceremony and talking to me about her death and not being there, because most people probably won't even realize why there was an empty chair in the first place...or at least that's my thinking
  15. don't overplan - that's what a recent DB told me. She said everything you think is so important (programs, place cards, etc) really doesn't matter that much in the end and most people won't even notice
  16. I like the idea of a photobook for whoever of the parentals helps out with the wedding - i think its a nice gesture, and the cost of it will likely be minimal compared to the help they are providing
