Dilemma of the day recap #11

Dilemma Recap IntroImage2

Dilemma of the day:

"My partner and I are both vegetarian and we really don't want to serve meat at our wedding. Some of my partner's friends are big meat eaters and I don't want them to disappoint them with the vego food we serve. I'm scared they'll complain that we're serving them bird food. What should we do? We'd both really rather not have any meat, but I'm starting to think we might need to compromise. Help!" #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

"I'm getting married next year and I've asked my sister-in-law's daughters to be the flower girls. We took the girls out for dress shopping the other week and the younger niece (she is 3) has developed a bit of a complex about being in front of crowds. She was petrified of coming out of the change room and showing everyone. I thought it might have been a one off, but this is the second time she's been really upset in a public situation like this. I don't want to upset the poor girl by forcing her to walk down the aisle! I've tried to hint to her mother that she doesn't need to be the flower girl but she's not catching on... would it be rude for me to suggest anything or should I leave it?" #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

"This will be the second marriage for both my partner and I. Aside from family and a few of our very best friends, most of the people we are inviting to the wedding were not a part of either of our lives for our first marriages (which were roughly ten years ago). It won't be their second time attending either of our weddings, so I'm wondering, what's the etiquette surrounding a gift registry? I know people usually don't have them for a second marriage but a friend has said she'd like to get us a present and it would help to have a registry. What do you think?" #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

"My partner and I are getting married mid next year and we are both very set up in regards to housing and furniture ect. We bought a house last year and so we don't need or want anything for our house.
Would it be appropriate to just ask for money as a gift? We don't want to be flooding with things that we definitely don't need." #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

"I'm the MOH for my best friend and I've started to plan the hens night. I've had a few of the other bridesmaids requesting why we weren't going away for the entire weekend? I've spoken to the bride many times about what she would want for a hens and she's always wanted to keep it simple... one night. They are really adamant about having a whole weekend thing. I'm not really close to those girls so I don't really know how else to say that she doesn't want a big hens... I don't want to bring the bride into it but I'm feeling a little out numbered... should I just let them plan something bigger? Help!" #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

"One of my friends has just presumed she will be a bridesmaid for my wedding. It's making things really difficult because it would mean that either we have uneven numbers in the bridal party or one of my closer friends would miss out because I don't want to hurt her feelings. What do I do?" #mwdilemma
