Scent Free?
Joy of Plan a wedding, On January 2, 2023 at 22:22

I'm looking at what places sell bridesmaid dresses in my area, and so far all I've seen are David's Bridal, and Sorella Vita for brands. I was looking at a few online too, but they're often really...

I have chosen a venue, and when talking to their event coordinator, they have a minimum of 80 people and a comfortable max of 120 (but we want to keep it at or below 100). Is there a way to have a...
