Save money on "Save the dates" huge waste of money, huge. Invites 1-2 months before is quite enough. If someone can't get free with a month's notice they didn't want to come in the first place.

[mac5155]

Already bought, but with coupon codes were under 50 bucks for 150 of em.

we're doing online save the dates (mailing them to those that don't have access to internet like grandparents, but even those we're printing ourselves)

Tried to convince BadHands to let me wear a Dumb & Dumber tux for the wedding. Didn't go so well.

GUEST LIST DRAMA

[Letang Is The Truth]

what is your drama

[CERV96]

Does mac5155 have a guest list contoversy?

[mac5155]

Well I told her that her mom was allowed 3 work friends + guests. But then my dad asked for 10 work friends + guests and offered to pay and I thought sure why not he's paying. It was my fault. So I redacted on my dad's offer. Now he's ticked at me. Oh well. I dont need them there anyway.

[skullman80]

Still within budget with just under 3 months to go. I refuse to go over budget unless its a necessity.

My mom did the same thing. The only good thing about allowing the work friends is they usually pay off with cash in a good way... they were all sat at a "reject" table, they knew it, I didn't care because neither I nor my wife knew them. They did give us some nice cash though.

[mac5155]

I fear they will just give average gifts. I mean, I'm not even Inviting that many of MY work friends

why would a company make an engagement ring and not have a matching wedding band? Is this a common thing?

Also, for my band I'm looking for a tougher metal like tungsten or titanium with a little bit of bling in it. Anyone order their ring online somewhere that they liked?

[Letang Is The Truth]

Don't get bling

I actually got lucky and got my ring at a place in the KOP mall that was going out of business. It has small diamonds inlaid in the band, so it does get the nice little bling factor to it. The last thing I wanted was a plain, yellow gold band.

go ceramic, brah

[count2infinity]

I was thinking about ceramic, but I like the metallic look. Tungsten Carbide is a possibility as it can look metallic. I really like the idea of a titanium ring with either some diamonds or an inlay of some sort. I found some river stone inlay titanium rings that look like something that would fit me pretty well (style, not size).

My fiancee's ring's wedding band was "discontinued".. so she's stuck looking for an "ok match"...

They make camo rings.. I'm going for a black/dark grey looking one. Ceramic? Never heard of ceramic rings. Are they nice? I also need about a size 16.
