Yes, yes, yes - this. When I got proposed to by my ex, I said "Yes, but we should see if we can live together first."

Thanks! There's so much out there arguing one way or the other as to whether you have to include difficult relatives, but you never hear from folks as to whether they regret their decision to include or not to include said relatives.
Jolie, can you PLEASE do a Pop the Question about sisters and sisters-in-law; namely, should you HAVE to ask them to be in the bridal party?
HA! Me and my parents are vegan, so we might do Flying Cupcake or something. I don't know if they like George Bush, though.
We chose ours based on another wedding, too. We need a lot of Latin hiphop and dance hall music. This dude downright shuts the song down if no one's dancing (PS-going with Crowne Plaza)
WHAT ABOUT GREEN OLIVES???!!!!
MOMS. I'm so glad she's mine, but fuck. I've been engaged three weeks and she's already criticized my dress choices (ok, crop top isn't exactly conventional), that I'm having bridesmaids (because she knows her other daughter won't be MOH unless she's the ONLY ONE), groomsman choices (because my brother is not on the…
Planning a wedding now. In the Midwest. The difference in some of the venue and catering minimums between Fridays and Saturdays is TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS. Hence, we are having a Friday wedding, knowing people may not come, but also knowing that people would like to be fed more than Chex Mix.
YES. THIS. We had talked about it so much; I knew it was coming in the next month or so; I figured out that day that it was probably coming that day; we went out to the beach at sunset and I was like "this is probably it." But when it happened, it was still a HUGE surprise.
terremoto did exactly 0 of those things and it was the most amazing proposal ever. People think he should be a proposal designer. As a thing. And he had like 100 back-ups that didn't make the cut.
I am planning a wedding right now. This is all true. Start the conversation about yes-or-no-kids-at-the-wedding. I dare ya.
That or she will get fired from being a bridesmaid. Because jealousy. Hers, not mine.
I want the State Museum but the catering is sooooooo expensive . Or the NCAA because we are sporty.
You can. I don't have a date yet, because I only got engaged three weeks ago. But three weeks has been enough time to ascertain that my sister will get slapped, if not way before then.
OOOOOooooooo we don't even have that part figured out yet! And it's in five months!!!!!
If not then, then at the wedding surrounded by my gay MOH and all my gay gay super gay friends.
And my fiancé's sister might slap herself, as she will be a non-drinking, non-swearing, closet lesbian suuuuuuuuuper conservative Christian at a lingerie/stock-the-bar shower.
I LIVE IN INDIANAPOLIS!!! If I can come to your baby shower, you can come to my bridal shower (lingerie and stock-the-bar), where my sister will most definitely get slapped.
Yeah, don't get me started on this one. My 43-year-old fiancé has some f'd up genetics where he gets to eat LITERALLY whatever he wants and is always like "I need to gain some weight." He's also incredibly ripped. It's taken about four years to get him to the point where on the weekend or when we're traveling, he goes…
I think there need to be more venues for non-overweight people to talk about how they, too, have messed up body images. Unfortunately most of those conversations tend to turn into "woe is me; I'm so skinny" and thus inspire tons of backlash, instead of looking more broadly at how unrealistic societal expectations…
