Just because you're shelling out a small fortune for your wedding and feel like the next dollar you part with is going to make you seriously nauseous, it doesn't mean that tipping etiquette can be thrown out the window. While you're focused on the big-picture price, your vendors are each providing a unique service and you, gracious bride, must be prepared to tip when appropriate. Just as your Friday night dinner bill jumps when tax and tip are added to the total, your vendor costs will also increase when you add these two Ts into the mix.

Ah, the guest list — something that should be so simple in theory that can often turn into a nightmare of political distress, and is the cause of so many lamenting brides-to-be wishing they could just elope. While the average guest list has 153 names on it, that number doesn't seem so forgiving when you take in to account all of the family and friends whom without your event would feel incomplete. The question of inviting your boss and your co-workers is one that can be tougher to solve than the kid question because of the possible repercussions, and the last thing you want to face when you get back from your honeymoon is to be met with awkwardness at work.

Unless they're your work friends, approach personal wedding conversations at work with the mentality that not everyone wants to be filled in on the details. Because your wedding is such a big event for you it's only natural that your co-workers will know this fact about your personal life, even if they don't really know you personally. Weddings have that strange way of being common knowledge in the workplace, it's probably the one thing your co-workers (not to be confused with your work friends) will constantly ask about when you're in a small-talk situation.
