Wedding??????

I am going to a wedding tonight. I was planning on wearing a black and white dress, but I tried it on at the last minute and it just does not fit right. I have another dress but it is white with pink sparkly flowers, is it wrong to wear a white dress to a wedding?? Even if it has pink all over it, and if I wear pink shoes too.

Wedding??????
wear something comfortable end of discussion
Reply:If it was all white that would definitely be a no-no.


Since it has pink flowers all over it and you're wearing pink shoes, I think it would be fine.
Reply:Add a pink shawl, cardigan, or jacket. No wait - a white and pink dress is all wrong for December! Call a friend or go shopping!
Reply:Don't wear it. Don't risk making the bride upset on her wedding day.
Reply:No. All those old superstitions are pretty much gone. The fact that it has flowers will make a big difference. If you were going to wear like a white prom style dress I would probably say no to that but what you are describing sounds fine.
Reply:yeh
Reply:i don't think its wrong
Reply:I would think it would be ok, particularly with the shoes. I would also think about adding a pink jacket or wrap to go with it.
Reply:As long as you up the pink with make up and shoes it should not be a problem. Try finding a pink shaw and hand bag
Reply:Eww your dress sounds like its gross. You should post a picture.
Reply:no it isnt
Reply:well if it has pink then it is not like wearing a white dress. Go ahead and wear it. I would stay away from all white.
Reply:It's fine to wear it,just as long as you don't look better than the Bride Besides it has pink in it and with the pink shoes I see no problem as everyone likes dressing their best for weddings.Go for it
Reply:i wouldnt wear it, do you have nice pants and a nice blouse?
Reply:It would be okay but this is December. That sounds like a spring dress. Do you have something less pastel?
Reply:Just don't let it attract all of the attention. It;s wrong to attract attention from the bride. you don't want all eyes on u. The outfit sounds cute.
Reply:there was alot of people at my sisters wedding that wore white


What dress should I wear to a wedding in late Oct?

I'm searching for a great dress to wear to a wedding late fall, and I need some tips!





I'm pear shaped (small waist and I definitely have hips!), and I'm not really into strapless dresses.





What colours are in for fall this year, and any suggetions on which type of dress to wear?

What dress should I wear to a wedding in late Oct?
Well being that I am pear shaped myself I know what your talking about. I would suggest a tea length halter or tea length a line empire waist dress they are all the rage this season. Macy's has a great selection and they wont break the bank. As for fall colors......this fall it seems as if neutral colors are in.....you can always jazz up a neutral dress with some bright colored classy heals Macy's also has great shoes! Also don't wear to much jewelry it takes away from you. Earrings really should be all you wear besides your wedding ring if your married or a nice right hand ring. Weddings are a time and place that you can dress to the hilt and look as gorgeous as you want to be! I hope this helps you out!!!!
Reply:try brown, and i bet a halter dress would look good on you


How do i start planning for my wedding in September;what are the 1st things to be done?

My wedding is in September 2006,i dont know where to start from in making preparation for that day to make it a success!

How do i start planning for my wedding in September;what are the 1st things to be done?
Well FIRST I would check out the website:





http://www.theknot.com





It is the most important tool you will use. Once you register it will create a timeline of things you need to focus on to make your day a success. It has articles and advice and it's up to date.





Also, get a binder and when you see something you like put it in there labeled so you are well organized.





Another thing: DO WHAT YOU AND YOUR FUTURE HUSBAND WANT. Family will try to tell you that you HAVE to do this or have that but it is what YOU want. I didn't throw the bouquet....I stopped at my grandparents grave and placed it there because they couldn't share the day with me. Other people didn't like it but it meant a great deal to me.





Finally, don't expect perfection. Stuff will go wrong...remember the wedding day is just a day...marriage is a lifetime.
Reply:Set the date and reserve the location


Send out invitations


Then check out the websites below foe free planning guides to go the rest of the way

Reply:One of the things that takes the longest to take care of is the bridesmaid's dresses. You need to figure that out fairly quickly, because it takes a lot of time to get everyone fit, order them, etc. My wife and I had a very short engagement (about 10 weeks). The only thing that was really hard to get done in that amount of time was the brides maid dresses.
Reply:Well there is a few things. Get a church or decide where the ceremony will take place, get a reception location and buy a gown and it's fixins', select your bridal party, and there is soo much I can keep going on! Get a wedding planner book and they have it marked for you week by week!
Reply:In the last wedding that I went to in August, my cousin had paid for a very expensive wedding planner. That is not always necessary. If you think everything out, do a little here and there, then, everything should run smoothly. Since it is in Sept., make sure you are doing something related towards your wedding each week like making flower baskets, getting the wedding gown, picking out the bridesmaids' dresses, choosing the location %26amp; alternative plans of indoor/outdoor in case of bad weather, music list or live band, catering place, wedding shoes/garter/veil, ring barrier's pillow, table decorations, close to last minute list of people to invite if others RSVP no and there is a minimum seat requirement to reserve a specific room, types of drinks at the open bar if there is to be one, stretch limo comapany, etc. By now, you are probably sending out the invitations?
Reply:the first and the foremost to be done ....and the most difficult one is ...find the right guy......and i mean "the right guy" ...be sure.


What is the best way to save money after the wedding?

My Fiancee and I are looking to get married in April of 2009. Starting in december of this year, he will be finishing with school and his current job has offered him a job at 55,000 a year. I will still be only making about 15,000 at the time. Our wedding right now looks like it will be costing us about 30,000. We will be able to afford the wedding/honeymoon without having to take out a personal loan.





However, this means that we might have to live with my parents for a few months to save money before we go to find a place of our own. He likes the idea of living here together for a while becuase it will give us a chance to get organized and pack the things that we are going to take/get rid of the things we will not take. etc... plus, my parents would not charge rent of any kind.





The other option is to find somewhere to rent.. Is renting a better idea? I dont see how it is possible to save money for a home while renting.


Any suggestions would be helpful.

What is the best way to save money after the wedding?
Why not try saving up enough to buy a house first? but then is it really that important that you have a 30K wedding? What are people going to remember, that you had an expensive wedding, or that you are still married 10 years down the road.





If buying a house is really that important (and it is the single best investment you can make in life) then you should focus more on that then on having a 30K wedding and honeymoon.





The wedding is one day, you guys can take a trip anytime you want after you are married.
Reply:Forget saving, start making
Reply:This is outside the scope of your question, but you could scale the wedding back. That would put you in a great way. One area where you can save a lot of money is photography--call the local college to find an art/photography student who will take your wedding pictures. Many of them will do it for $500 + food drink, and you will own all the negatives!





Living with parents is stressful, especially for a new marriage. A few hundred dollars off the wedding, and you can easily afford your rent.

What price would a you pay for a wedding planning or wedding day coordination?

If you are considering hiring a wedding planner to plan your entire wedding, what price would you pay and what would you expect from them?





If you have already planned your wedding, but would like to hire a wedding day coordinator to make sure that everything goes the way you envisioned it, what price would you be willing to pay?





Complete wedding planning usually costs 10% of your wedding budget and wedding day coordination is usually $750, is that reasonable - would you pay that price for a stress-free wedding?

What price would a you pay for a wedding planning or wedding day coordination?
You sound like a wedding coordinator wannabe. I have to say I am not wealthy so I would not be willing to pay that. But if I had a big budget for a wedding, I'd probably hire a coordinator and pay that much.
Reply:that sounds cheap. i would expect it actually costs way way more than that, but for those who say it's more 'fun' to do it yourself, that's a total crock, it's very stressful when people do it themselves--most people do not have the temperment for it, i've seen it SO many times that they stress out bigtime--yes, i'd pay for a stress-free experience in anything, not just weddings, if not, then i would do my best to keep it as simple and REALISTICALLY MANAGEABLE as possible if i was doing it myself, which i have, twice!
Reply:no i wouldnt do the planning and details with yourself and intended and ask ifyour family and friends can help.planners can find stuff for you cheaper but look on computer you can get all kinds of stuff yourself super cheap.check on ebay and also a company called oriental trading has supplies super cheap.sure it will be a little more work for you but it can be enjoyable.besides the money you sp[end on a planner can be spent on your life after the wedding.i had a beautiful wedding and didnt spend much by doing it myself as others have done.good luck on the futureany wedding has stress no matter who does the work.
Reply:Not a penny. It's nice when families do the planning together, and everything is under our own control.
Reply:I planned my own wedding and it went off with out a hitch no planner needed . . the only worry I had was keeping my veil on while on the freeway in a convertible heading for the reception so I wouldn't spend the money on a planner . .
Reply:I wouldn't pay a penny for a wedding planner. I am actually enjoying planning my wedding. And the things that have stressed me out a wedding planner couldn't of helped me with. Like for example my bridesmaid dresses and it was only because I didn't know what I wanted and nobody could've hepled me with that especially somebody I barely know. Everything else I was perfectly capable of doing on my own. I know that I am getting exactly what I want and not a version of what my wedding planner thinks I want. Oh yeah and I agree with what somebody said about the 10%. That's alot of money. The average cost of a wedding in the United States is around the $25,000-$30,000 range. So how is your average price $750. My wedding is going to cost a over $20,000 and I would never pay $2000 for somebody to basically give me their opinion when I can do that for free.
Reply:10% WOW, that would be $2,000!!!


I can barely afford the wedding... I would never pay that...
Reply:that is the easier, less stressful way to do it. But I'm in the process of planning my wedding and I have so much fun doing it. My friends and family want to help. If I had someone so it all for me it wouldn't be as much fun, nor would I get to explore my options.





I say gather up some people and do it yourself.
Reply:Why did you ask this question, as you already have the answer. Your estimates are right in the ball park. Have a great wedding and marriage afterwards.
Reply:Not a damn thing. Coordinators and planners are a waste of money and only further fuel the obnoxious bridezilla nonsense and pathetic wedding industry.

Reply:If i have the money, i would because that means you have an extra hand to help you out so that your wedding will be stress free. You probably have friends or family that can help you, but don't you want them to enjoy your wedding. I hired a wedding day coor and she helped with with things during the wedding and i was glad to have one because i wanted my guests to enjoy the party.
Reply:You need to read this ebook about planning a wedding,


it's really helpful


What kind of hair style for my wedding will be flattering for me?

My face is pretty chubby and round. I have long straight hair naturally. Is it more flattering to wear it up, down or half up half down? Curly? Will the curl add width and make my face look smaller in comparison? What do you think? I just want to look my best for my wedding.

What kind of hair style for my wedding will be flattering for me?
i would go to a hairstylest because they will b able 2 tell wat would look best for ur face shape but if i had a pic i would b able 2 tell u but honestly if i were u i would just go 2 a hairstylist and ask them


What wedding colors should i use and what color should the bridesmaids dresses be?

My wedding dress is white with a long APPLE red sash (not regular red) around the waist with the rest hanging down the back of the dress. The guys will be wearing black tuxes, possibly with apple red vest and tie. Groom in black and all white vest and tie. I was thinking about putting the girls in black dresses with a ribbon tied around the waist or a flower pinned on them but i dont know how good that will look. And from what i hear black is not what they should be wearing anyway. HELP!!!!!

What wedding colors should i use and what color should the bridesmaids dresses be?
if your wedding is in the evening I think black dresses for the bridesmaids would be very classic!
Reply:Girl, the bridesmaids should be in white and red similar to you, you want to coordinate--not clash. I get where you're coming from, but black is not good. Nice white dresses or even red dresses--but then they might look like hookers. Well u should be the only one wearing whit. Put them in red dresses. and the flower girls in white.
Reply:I know you reported on me, and answer was deleted. But it is not impossible to find this question again and write the new one. I let them know about racial discrimination, no need to hate russian, it is wasting on time and nerves. We r still the best. Thanks.
Reply:Here is my honest opinion. I think that you should have your bridesmaids were an apple color dress, like the color of your sash, and then have them just choose different styles of dresses to suit there body types, just in that color. I also think that a white sash, would look good on the apple dress. Kind of doing a reverse type of theme. Your bridesmaids should definitely not wear black at all. I think that an apple color with a bright bold color sash or even a fall colored sash, if your wedding is in the fall would look great. I say bright green, white, baby blue, or even a gold or a burnt orange would look great for a sash or ribbon.
Reply:i would look at Alexia's Bridal shop online! There are soem really cute femine dresses for bridesmaids and you could get some good ideas! I wouldnt want black for my bridesmaids b/c when i think of a wedding I think of happyness and black make it feel not as happy more like a dealth. Congrats! and Good Luck!!
Reply:No black give them pink and have your theme color be like a gold/ jade
Reply:its your wedding, have them wear clown suits if ya want too.


Black is always elegant and formal. Perhaps they could have black with a white flower pinned on them and maybe white gloves.


That is a nice look, sharp and elegant.


Congratulations! Best wishes! :)
Reply:Gosh no, they are not going to a funeral! Put the girls in a soft pink. That way they will match the red the rest of weddding party is wearing.


Green might be another choice since it is the complimentary color to red, but you don't want to look like Christmas either.


Soft pink would look really nice.
Reply:its your wedding.


Go with black.


I have seen bridesmaids wearing black.


But try and find a black dress with some tipe of "apple red" sash, that way it all matches, and your bridesmaids dont look out of place.
Reply:I would put the bridesmaids in apple red dresses, and the color scheme would be apple red and dark brown.
Reply:black is what I have always wanted. I think it is really nice and classic. With red accents...you carrying red flowers and the bridesmaids carrying white or cream. You could pull that off. Charcoal is in now too. it looks classier than you think.
Reply:lavender and white
Reply:well if you want your bridesmaids to wear black...do it. it's your wedding so as long as you like it and are happy with what everything looks like is all that matters.





however, do you know what time of day the wedding will be? usually, if it's a night wedding people will be more open to seeing black dresses on the bridesmaids...especially if it's more of a formal wedding.





my opinion is if you DO go with black..make the ribbon apple to match your dress. or go with the apple bridesmaids dresses
Reply:I been to couple of wedding parties and they usually wear the brides favorite color. They also wear the color of watever the bride is wearing for example in your situation apple red!! In my opinion honestly i dont think black is nice if its your wedding it should be like a happy color like the apple red that you said. Black is too sad, Good luck!!
Reply:Why don't you have them wearing apple red dresses? makes sense to me.
Reply:regardless of the dress color DO NOT MAKE THEM WEAR THE SAME DRESS! it is the easiest way to make your wedding party uncomfortable and look sloppy. make sure the dresses fit everyone's figure. choose a simple color and maybe accessorize to match you, trust me everyone's eyes will be on you no matter what...but the next thing they look at shouldn't be the maid of honor about to rip open her dress.
Reply:Black is fine. I like your idea, you could have a simple black dress with a red tie around the waist. Whould it be too bright if they had red dresses? Usally bridsmaids have peaches and light blue tones.
Reply:It is good that you asked for help because it is better to get opinion from others rather than burdening such things by yourself.It would be best to consult a fashion designer and a wedding planner because they know more about how your wedding would become successful and great.In such ways others prefer their color motives with their favorite colors.
Reply:What about putting each bridesmaid in a different, but complimentary, shade of red....monochromatic, but varied?


They could each pick their own style dress too. Use the various shades of red in your bouquet and theirs...and in youe petals down the aisle.
Reply:MAYBE YOU SHOULD WEAR SHEER DRESS WITH THE RED UNDER IT THEN U WILL HAVE BOTH OF THOSE COLORS I DNT KNOW BUT I JUST WANTED TO HELP WITH UR QUESTIONS. I HOPED I HELPED A LITTLE
Reply:Why don't you have them wear an apple red dress..Thats what we wore in my sisters wedding and they were so pretty..If you do decide to do black (its your day who cares what others think) I'd do an apple red ribbon around the waist..Congrats
Reply:try going to www.davidsbridal.com


they have a great selection and plenty of colors to choose from.
Reply:You can so use black! It sounds pretty.
Reply:Why not put the girls in apple red? They could wear black with an apple red sash.
Reply:the black dresses would look very nice with a gold ribbon around the waist.
Reply:I think black is a beautiful color for bridesmaid dresses. You can totally do the sash thing, that's what my sister did.

Reply:Try red dresses with a sash - make sure the dresses also look good without a sash, so they can re-use them.


What color is apple red? There are so many colors of apples!


Cherry red, tomato red, burgundy red, etc...
Reply:The girls could still wear black. My niece did this and it was very classy plus they had red flowers that really stood out. So black with apple red sash would be good or if you prefer apple red dresses if you can find them. Then they would match the men's vests. It's your wedding so do what pleases you!
Reply:red dresses w/ black sash/ ribbon tied around them ... or black dresses w/ red shash/ ribbon.
Reply:Don't worry what anyone else thinks or says about how YOUR wedding should look! You can make it any way you want. BTW, I think the black dresses with the apple red ribbon around the waist would look beautiful.





Oh, and congratulations!
