Today’s wiki is the Registry Checklist. Most major retailers give you a registry checklist upon starting a registry, but often times there are hundreds of items on these lists, and most lists seem overly-extensive. When you built your registry, what were the most important pieces that you added? Married brides: what items did you register for that you found to be the most practical to…

Today’s wiki is all about fonts. Choosing fonts is among one of the first tasks that brides take on when they are choosing their paper goods. There are endless amounts of fonts out there, but where do you go to find them, and which ones are for you?

There are so many great resources out there for elaborate, beautiful, and even, free fonts! Some of the…

Today’s wiki is Flower Girl Gifts. A lot of us have difficulties finding creative and meaningful gifts for our flower girls! Finding gifts for your bridesmaids and groomsmen seems to be easier than finding gifts for the younger members of your bridal party, because you’re all the same age.

What are you planning on giving your flower girl as a thank you for being a part…

On the heels of Mrs. Cherry Pie’s great budget post yesterday, we thought we’d follow up with today’s wiki: Hidden Costs. Hidden costs apply to not only bride and groom, but also the wedding party and wedding guests as well.

If you’ve ever been a bride, groom, wedding party member, or even a guest at a wedding, you can help us fill up the wiki! What…

I was browsing all the options for the wiki of the day, and the Dessert Reception wiki really piqued my interest! Mr. Penguin and I have never attended a dessert reception, but the idea sounds lovely! When I close my eyes, I imagine huge colorful displays of cakes and desserts, and maybe even a big candy buffet in coordinating wedding colors! There are so many…

Today’s wiki is Reading. I remember searching for readings for Mr. Penguin’s and my ceremony, and it took me quite a while to find ones to fit our style and personalities. I traded long lists of readings with other engaged readers, but always wished that there was a one stop resource on the web. By contributing to the wiki, we can make it happen!

What readings…

Today’s wiki is Photographer. Hiring a photographer is one of the most important steps in planning a wedding. So, where should you begin?

• Where do you go on the web to find a reputable photographer in your area?
• How do you go about finding new and up-and-coming photographers?
• What are some questions that you should ask potential photographers?
• What are some warning signs that may alert you to a…

Today’s wiki is Place Card. There are so many unique ways to show your guests to their seats, and you can help fill the wiki with great ideas! This wiki is mostly empty, so we’d like to know:

• What information should you include on a place card?
• What are some unique place card ideas?
• What are your tips for helping your guests to find their seats?
• What are some…

Today’s wiki is Guest List. For Mr. Penguin and me, this was probably the worst and most stressful part of planning our wedding. We both have large families, and while all were from out of town (or out of country), many expressed their interest in coming, meaning that we had to find a way to cram our huge extensive family list in with our friend…

Today’s wiki is Couples Shower. Rather than the traditional bridal shower that only allows female guests, a couples shower is typically attended by both male and female guests and gives an engaged couple the opportunity to share in the excitement of a shower. Because couples showers aren’t very common, anyone that has had or has been to a couples shower can help out in contributing…

Today’s wiki is Minimoon! If a couple is unable to take a long vacation after their wedding day, or are simply saving up money for something else, they’ll often take a minimoon, or a short vacation, rather than a full honeymoon. Minimoons are quite a popular option these days! Lots of couples are looking for unique minimoon destinations. Hopefully, if you’ve got a hidden gem…

The RSVP portion of the invitation can be tricky. Many couples struggle with how much—or how little—detail they want to include on the cards.

The RSVP wiki is particularly in need of etiquette tips, as well as general tips about RSVP cards. What information is good to include on your RSVPs? What is the ideal amount of time that you should set your RSVP deadline by?…

Today’s wiki is Parents Gifts. Couples often struggle to find a meaningful token of appreciation for their parents. Doing a Google search for “unique parent gift” yields pages and pages of… well… uninspired gifts for sale. So, let’s help each other out by contributing unique and popular parent gifts to the wiki! Let us know what you plan on giving your parents, and what makes…

Today’s wiki is Man of Honor. Many brides feel closer to a particular male in their life, like a brother, or childhood friend, than they do another female. So, it’s only fair that he stands up on her side of the bridal party! Anyone that has had a bridesman (hi Mrs. Avocado!) can surely help us to fill out this wiki!

What are some of the…

Mrs. Penguin here bringing you the wiki of the day! Today’s wiki is “Welcome to Weddingbee”! Weddingbee can be sort of a strange concept to brides that aren’t exactly savvy to blogs and the blogging world. I know a lot of people stumble upon Weddingbee while searching for something on Google, or find us through links on other sites. Before I found Weddingbee, I thought…
