| As a follow up to my earlier question about answering here on Y!A....what are your 3 favorite wedding Q's to answer...which 3 are you sick of seeing on here or just dislike? My favorites to answer are:1. Anything that I haven't seen in the weddings section before (few and far between)2. Theme wedding Q's (anyone who knows me on here knows how I feel about themes..but I do find them entertaining to read/answer)3. Questions about wedding menus (fun to see what everyone has planned)Bottom 3:1. Money dance,invitations with gift requests/contribute to our honeymoon/new home/3 kids we already have-sooo very tired of seeing these sort of Q's. I generally will not bother answering those type of Q's anymore. 2. Favor Q's: What should we do? where can I find them? I realize this is a fun part of a wedding, but I almost feel like brides concentrate on favors way more than they need to with endless questions. 3. Redneck weddings Q's. Yuck.Oh, one more question..and I totally refuse to answer any more of them is "What is the best color for a wedding?" How should I know what color you like? If you can't pick a simple color, I have a feeling the wedding planning is going to be difficult. |

| I like answering questions that are truly questions about weddings and planning. Not just someone looking for backup to a bridezilla moment. I completely avoid questions that are so confusing and grammatically incorrect that you have no idea if it's an 8 year old asking the question or if the person even knows what she is asking. |

| Hi. I agree!My favorite: Assisting those who are having a wedding on a budget! I really love trying to help those that have a $3K or $5K budget. It's fun. Worst: Wedding "do-overs" (it doesn't matter the reason). It's a do-over. |

| I also like to help the gals on a budget. And I love the flower questions - what type of flower to use and that sort of thing.I hate the "my diamond ring is too small", people who want to know if it's alright to use living things (doves, butterflies, fish, etc.), the "my bridesmaid/moh is not supporting me" (this after they probably asked them to buy some hideous dress for a gozillion dollars), and the ones that complain because "daddy" only gave them 20,000 for their wedding. |

| My favourite questions to answer are ones that are genuine and interesting. Like "hey, I have $3000 to spend on my wedding. How can I budget and have a really nice wedding with this kind of money" It is really interesting to see the ways people come up with to save money.I like menu and cake questions. It is cool to see what people have at their weddings, and centrepieces, decorations etc. It is Almost like getting a sneak peak into other peoples weddings.The questions I really dislike are when 1. girls are bragging about their rings (I have a 6 carat diamond and I am scared to wear it in case I get mugged.....etc...etc....blah blah) Like they just want to let it be known that their man wasted a fortune on their ring....I am sure many marriages last where the ring is tiny, or they have no ring at all.Or 2. "why do people get mad when I tell them my wedding is costing 100K?" It is like they are just wanting an excuse to post and let people know how much they are spending on their day. Big deal, it wont make the marriage last any longer than a $500 wedding.And I really, really hate it when girls post pictures of 4 strapless gowns worn by skinny beautiful models, which all look the same to me anyways, and ask which dress they should choose. For a start, all strapless gowns look the same to me, and all look lovely on a size 4 model. 2ndly unless we see the dress on you and know what your figure is like, how can we tell? Post pics of yourself in the dress then we can offer an opinion. A beautiful fitted gown may look gorgeous on the model but if you are a size 24, then sorry, it may not look any good. |

| Let's see...Bottom 3: 1. Questions regarding how people complain about the generosity of people. "Why did my parents give me so much money for my wedding, what am I going to do?"2. People who just won't stop asking for more gifts! "What is the proper way to ask for money instead of gifts?"3. Really general questions. "How do I plan a wedding?"Top 3:1. Deciding between two things. "Which dress is appropriate?"2. Personal questions. "What did you play at your reception?"3. And generally, unique questions that I don't usually see.. |

| Favorite to answer:1. Anything about DIY invites2. What do you think of this? (table-setting and general room scheme, or bridesmaids dresses etc.)3. About buying a ringSick of seeing:1. How can I request cash only on invites? (I dont know why I keep answering this either... I must be sick)2. How much does a wedding cost? (too broad to answer)3. Can I fire my MOH/bridesmaid because she is not at my beck and call? |

| My favorite questions are when brides need help chosing a dress. Its not "Help me find a dress" question, but "Please help me chose between these 3 dresses.; I love them all, but am having trouble picking them out". The way I see it is that you have done your research for your wedding and have chosen dresses that you truly like but because you like them so much you are having a rough time chosing which one. If you ask me to help you find a dress and you dont have choices, then I wont help becasue I feel you are the only one that knows what your dress looks like and what may look good or bad with the wedding dress.The questions that I absolutly will not even touch is... "here is my ring... what do you think? I dont like it because... or I dont think its big enough... or he only spent xxxxx amount of money on it" Hello???? Be greatful for hat you got. Doesnt anyone care about how he proposed or that he loves you enough to make a lifelong commitment? |
