Is it okay to ask guests not to bring dates unless they are in established relationships?
Answer:
It is perfectly acceptable. You might be trying to manage your guest list and keep it under control with the budget you're working with. Some people might not like this idea, but it's not their wedding. Just explain to them that you have a budget you have to stay within and allowing too many people will make you cut back on some things that you would absolutely love to have in your wedding.
We hope this answered your question!

A popular wedding trend that we're seeing for 2015 is displaying your food in a true unique way. What do you mean by unique? Doughnut desert walls, beer gardens, salad stations and food trucks are all great ways to serve food at your wedding. It adds a unique twist and will surely stun some of your guests! Will you incorporate this trend into your wedding?
Think about the flow of your party
What does this mean? Think about where you're serving food and drinks. Is the area small and will it get congested? Will there be a few bottlenecks? Consider removing a few chairs and rearranging tables to create a more open plan. That way, your guests don't get congested in just one area and your party has more of a flow.
You want your food to taste delicious, of course. Have you ever thought about how you're going to display your food? There are some really great ways to display your food. It not only tastes great, it also looks amazing. This week's Inspirational Friday will give you some ideas on how you can display your food and talk it over with your caterer.
These pictures capture some great ways to display food. They range from unique orbs, vegetable dip display to a fun candy bar. Come up with a fun idea for your food table that matches the theme of your wedding as well. Talk with your caterer, they'll have a lot of ideas.
If we had a cash bar at our wedding, is it a breach of wedding etiquette?
Answer:
Why it is perfectly acceptable for you to have a cash bar at your wedding, consider it in terms of this before you finalize your decision. Alcohol isn't a must, but think if you asked your guests to pay for their dinner. While it's not the same, it's something to look at.
If you feel like you must offer your guests drinks, there are great money saving ways to do this. Just serve beer, wine and soft drinks. Also, just focusing on one speciality drink will help cut down costs as well. There are many ways to cut cost, but don't feel obligated to serve alcohol as well. You know what's right for your budget.

What's trending for 2015 parties? There are many great things, but one that stands out is reusing your decorations. Using party decorations just once is a little heartbreaking. You use this great decor, but it only gets to be seen once. However, if you start thinking about how you can reuse your decorations, you can decorate with them for every event you host.
What do you mean reuse your decorations? Invest in pieces, like vases for example, that can be used at any party. Actually invest in your party pieces that can be used for different events. All you need is a little bit of out-of-the-box thinking on how you can change up your decorations to match the theme.
