Jade Ohno: If they don't cooperate I'd say you should pick new MOH and BM. There is no reason that you should go against what you had originally planned because of them. Besides, that is so disgusting that they want strippers!
Trena Berum: Just tell them there won't be a bachelor or bachelorette party at all....you don't want one. If she won't listen to you and respect your wishes, then why should she remain your MOH? Honestly, it's about the bride and groom and what THEY want.
Marti Declue: I am still trying to find a venue, and I have a firm budget. How much do you think I should set aside for flowers? Just wedding flowers, not the reception. We are doing bridal bouquet, one bridesmaid bouquet, two mens boutonnieres, and 4 mothers/grandmother corsages. Has anyone gotten this far in their planning and can give me an idea? I am hoping for hydrangeas and roses...Thanks for any help!...Show more
Jorge Detlefs: My bouquets are running about $80 apiec! e (the quote says that my bouquet is more, but we're going to get that switched to a cheaper style). My boutonnieres are $8 and the corsages are $10. This is for local/fair trade/organic flowers though, so expect to pay less. Not a lot less though - flowers are outrageously expensive.
Barton Slisz: It depends on the circumstances. If they show a total lack of respect for the commitment marriage is, then I wouldn't dare attend a second wedding. But, if they respect the commitment marriage is, but the marriage(s) ended for reasons beyond their control, the weddings I would attend would be unlimited (within reason)....Show more
Dee Depung: A bride's bouquet is going to be $100-$150, bridesmaid $75-$100. Or, at least that's what the florists were telling my sister this last weekend. Her's is a summer wedding, and she wants roses and carnations. The wedding packages that she's looking at are about $1000 for all flowers, including altar flowers for the church.
K! iersten Clayburn: It depends on how far I have to travel. If i! t involves a plane ticket or an overnight stay, I'll go to the first one, but probably not any more.If it's in town, it just depends on you. Ask yourself this question: If I attend and take a small gift, am I going to feel happy that I went or resentful that I spent my time and money on this event?I think some people here are jumping to conclusions. It doesn't sound like you are judging your niece's relationships, but that you are getting frustrated with her too-frequent requests for attention and gifts. That's totally understandable, and you're the only person who can decide what the limit is to your tolerance....Show more
Rosie Travino: $800-1000
Augustus Sarria: Unless your girlfriend chooses to share that information with you, it is none of your business. You are just asking for trouble if you go behind her back and ask her mom, because her mom will tell her you asked.
Travis Sherrock: That would not be appropriate. Why would you want to know anyhow?
Jess Grizzel: ok, its your wedding and that means your choices! So, if you dont want strippers then you don't have them. Tell your MOH that if she has strippers then you will leave the party, or not even come. Thats what i told my MOH when she told me she was having strippers. Your fiance needs to tell his BM that too. If they are really your friends then they will respect what you want. It's your bachleorette party, not hers.
Ramona Pago: Well, it depends on how good your relationship with her mom is. Like, I'd expect she wouldn't want to tell you anything bad about her daughter. So, she might tell you, but she would probably sugarcoat it (like if she's had a lot of boyfriends before, her mom might say she's had ...a few). And she'll probably report back to your girlfriend that you asked. Can't you ask your girlfriend for some details? It's only going to make you feel more insecure to compare yourself. It's understandable that you're curious, just be careful how! you go about it....Show more
Frances Macky: I would go and be ha! ppy for them, maybe the 3rd, 4th and 5th time might be a charm for them. I have a wedding coming up of a relative who is on wedding # 3, and going to show my support for them, and yes I will be giving them a gift. Perhaps since you obviously look down on your niece for failed relationships, its best you stay at home. I'm sure even you have mistakes in your past.Don't be so judgmental!...Show more
Elli Esaw: that is not a good idea. if one of my children had a boyfriend ask me that, i would go right to my daughter and tell her that the guy sounded pretty insecure and was not a good choice for her. what difference does it make what her other boyfriends were like? that has no bearing on you or your relationship with her whatsoever.
Luana Carothers: As many as they have. Period. Especially if they are family.
Jen Maday: Speak with your florist to get some ideas. The size and type of arrangement will figure into the price, as well as seaon and geographic lo! cation. A bride's bouquet can be anywhere from $150 and up. For the girls, anywhere from $65 up. The good thing is that the boutonnieres and corsages are relatively inexpensive at about $10-$15 each.
Idell Mulliniks: I have two things that concern me. Number one is my Maid of Honor wants to throw me the "traditional" bachelorette party. Strippers, games, the whole nine yards. I told her I don't want strippers, but she's being stubborn. "You HAVE to have strippers, or it's not a party," she says. The best man is just as stubborn. My fiance decided a loooong time before we even met that he didn't want strippers at his bachelor party. How should we handle this? I told him maybe we should choose other people to me MOH and BM, but that might be a little too harsh. What do you all think is the best course of action?...Show more
Dexter Gold: I would get frustrated with that situation. Honestly, I'd hope my invitation got lost in the mail by the 3rd wedding. But if I di! d receive it, of course, I'd go to the wedding and smile and all of tha! t and obviously bring a gift/check. But in my head, I'd be hoping she just elopes if there's a 4th.
Donte Schoenhals: sit the both of them down, and tell them in a calm peaceful way, that you and your fiancee do not like the stripper idea, and You can give us a party but if there are strippers there we will walk out, and you will not be my maid of honor, Tell her exactly that, and if she does not like that, Well tough, its your wedding and your party and find another brides maid or matron of honor, and have your finacee tell his buddy the same thing, If they are your true friends they will understand
Perry Deshazior: So your niece is under the age of forty and is getting married for the third time?I probably would go but I wouldn't get her anything other than a card.Three marriages under the age of forty is pretty bad.
Cody Petrulis: If you're close I'd go other wise I'd send a nice card and check.
Long Woltjer: I'm was having the same problem...i sa! t her down and told her that i was not comfortable with the strippers ect... she was very understanding but things worked out we had a Small get together and it was nice good luck and congrats
Jess Grizzel: Typical costs: The average cost for wedding flowers, including the bride's and bridesmaids' bouquets and groom's and groomsmen's boutonnieres and corsages for the mothers of the bride and groom, along with flower girl flowers, is $698, according to The Bridal Association of America. The bride's bouquet usually costs $50 to $150 or more - two to three times as much as the bridesmaids' bouquets, because it is larger and more ornate. The boutonnieres are much cheaper, usually about $10 or more. Cost depends heavily on how many flowers are used, how ornate the bouquets or decorations are, the time of year, the type of flowers used and whether they are locally grown. Simple designs with in-season, local flowers are cheapest while elaborate designs with exotic flowers s! hipped from far away, especially orchids, are most expensive. For examp! le, on the low end, a simple 20-stem bride's bouquet of one type of bulb flower, such as tulips, hand-tied with a ribbon might cost $50. In the mid-range, a crescent bouquet with a more expensive flower such as roses or calla lilies might cost $75. And on the high end, a 40-stem cascading bouquet with roses, gardenias and orchids might cost $120 or more.OneWed.com offers a guide to the different styles of bridal bouquets...Show more
Bruce Calise: hire strippers of both genders and hodl a mutial bachorlorette bacholer party where you and your husband can monitor the strippyness of the strippers and decide whats too strippy.
Giovanna Sherlin: I'd go and be happy she obviously hasn't given up on love!
Blair Abdi: If I were close to the person, I would attend their weddings if possible. At some point, however, it just becomes a joke. I don't really know the number, though. My sister's friend married a man (his 1st wife), who ended up being amrried to 5 or 6 di! fferent women before he turned 40. He's been married to #5 or 6 for over a decade.
Peggy Sandefer: 1, it's spelled dumB. Not dum. #2, it's none of your business. Her past is her past. #3, if you insist on knowing, then don't ask your girlfriend's mother. She has nothing to do with your relationship. Ask your GIRLFRIEND. And if she doesn't want to talk about it, then drop the subject and don't bring it up again....Show more
Monroe Rainey: I can almost guarantee that there will be strippers at your fiance's party, unless your fiance has found a way to really lay down the law.Talk to your MOH, let her know that you'd really rather not have a party at all if she wants strippers. Tell her if she wants to hire some for her own entertainment, fine, but you won't be there.If/when strippers show up at your party, take him aside. Tell him that you're not entirely comfortable with the whole naked dude thing. Most male strippers are surprisingly nice guys (I know a few),! and whoever's there will almost certainly have as much respect for you! as he can, considering he'll be wearing a thong....Show more
Neely Youngblut: HEY BELLEi have been in the wedding bus for 2 years now and i find flowers are a damn waste !ive had plenty of brides that can budget flowers under 100!!! its not easy but its worth the looking and also remember this, they just get thrown away ! I say use the money on the food or the photos. Pictures should be #1 in ur book also see photographers work , they should have plenty to show you, write down every picture you want taken and put it in the contractlesson # 1 write everything down in the contract get plenty of rest and wax / thread 2 days before , nails and toes 1day b4 and have ur emergency kit ready for back up...Show more
Moises Rupinski: I would go with a card and a check for a small amount.
Miguel Densley: Sit them down. Tell them they are hurting you by not respecting your wishes. If they want to see naked men and women, I'm sure there are topless and bottomless bar! s around where you live. Tell them to go there. If they keep pushing for, as you called it, "tradition," tell them there are other people who could be MOH and BM. You chose them for a reason. Give them ONE MORE CHANCE.....TOGETHER.
Joie Kemmis: I would probably be there for all of them.There really is no "obligation" to attend any wedding (relative or otherwise), you go if you want. Also, gifts are optional although I don't think I would go empty handed to anyone's wedding.If the relative is someone who marries & gets divorced repeatedly, I might decrease the amount of money I spend on the gift (having given a couple times before) and not buy a new outfit to wear to the wedding, but I would probably still be there.But what if the bride is a widow, how could you fault her for having multiple marriages?...Show more
Sang Hanafin: $600+
Abby Herwood: just RSVP no
Nicolasa Henke: For just the items you need, you should be able to get those for about $30! 0.00 more or less. If you were in Sacramento, CA, should you come to m! y shop, we could do it for about $275 and your toss bouquet and the groom's boutonniere will be free.
Lashawnda Anteby: I am the identical means. There are a number of at dwelling remedies you'll be able to take a look at. I uncover leisure tactics comparable to yoga, respiring sports stretching can paintings. Finding a blissful position, a amusing reminiscence or favourite undertaking you'll be able to consider approximately. For a few individuals track will paintings, gambling a favourite track can adjust you mind-set. If you think as regardless that not anything works it's regularly really helpful to head speak to a therapist. There could also be whatever triggering your strain that may be resolved. Good good fortune....Show more
Kenneth Queener: I just had my wedding and I made that stuff myself. You need pins, roses/flowers and ribbon. I would check at Albertson's, or any other grocery store at the floral department. When I went they had roses that were rel! atively cheap I think I spent about 30 on 4/5 dozen roses (two were discounted for a dollar but still looked great- the lady said they were too open)- you could always ask if they have discount roses too. So I was able to put some extra roses out for decorations. I bought the flowers and made the bridal bouquet ect. It's easy, and if you mess up, its simple to fix (unless you cut the stems to low). Here's a couple of websites on this link:http://www.expertvillage.com/video-series/320_flor...Hope all goes well with the wedding!...Show more
Shawnna Kusky: Elope and spend all the money that was going to be spent on your wedding on a fabulous honeymoon and/or a down payment on a house (that would be my solution), or...........Tell your self-centered MOH that you chose her because you THOUGHT she was your friend, maybe even your BEST friend, and that disrespecting your wishes is certainly not the kind of behavior one would expect from a friend on such an important occas! ion. Tell her that you feel badly about it, but she has left you no cho! ice, that you are choosing another friend for this special position. Have your fiance' tell the jerk he chose as his BM the same thing. Better yet, tell them together, at the same time - and stick to it. This is YOUR day - not theirs - and if they are hellbent on going against your wishes, I don't see that they deserve to be in such positions of importance in your wedding party.Please have some backbone here or you will regret it....Show more
Maynard Reevers: Price will depend on types of flowers and the size of your bouquet. Boutonnieres - $6-8 eachCorsages - $10-20 eachBridesmaid - $40-60Bridal - $80-120+ - make sure they include a smaller "toss away" for the reception if you want it.Also think about the venue where the ceremony will take place. Will you need any other arrangements? Alter pieces? Decorations for around the unity candle? There are some things you could get away with silk. Do not skimp and do silk on the bouquets to carry.Think about what you want bef! ore you meet with a florist. They will give you a free estimate so plan to shop around, but you will need to have your ideas in place. I found pictures in magazines and from wedding websites (knot.com) to help convey my ideas. (When planning budget: don't forget about tax - which depending on where you live could add a good chunk onto your bill. Especially reception venues if they charge tax and a service charge with an in house caterer and staff - in my case 17% service and 6% tax. It adds up.)...Show more
Peter Lapoint: I'm 15, a sophomore about to be a junior,.. I just wanna know but i don't wanna sound insecure
