I had a DIY filled weekend, finally! *pic heavy*
Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Do It Yourself, on June 25, 2012 at 11:01 AM

FH and I took the weekend off and dove in to DIY projects that needed to get done. I feel a bit less stressed out now, and as soon as the tutus are finished, I'll really feel better. I've always loved...

Addressing invite to a couple where the woman's name is hyphenated.
Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Etiquette and Advice, on June 24, 2012 at 12:19 PM

So, we're sending out a few last B-list invites (god, I hate how bad that sounds) and ran in to this. We have friends of ours from faire that are married, but her last name is hyphenated. How would we...

Any other camping-savvy brides?
Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Etiquette and Advice, on June 21, 2012 at 1:34 AM

We are looking to register for a new air mattress for when we camp during the renaissance festival and other camping trips we would like to take. Problem is, I've never had much luck with the silly...

Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Etiquette and Advice, on June 20, 2012 at 3:20 AM

And it's to the point that I don't even want to look at my countdown, something I used to love doing. I feel like I still have a million and one things to do (even though I know it isn't that bad and...

I posted last week that my shoes got here way early, and that I was thinking of adding some bling. Since I've been taking it easy to recover from faire this past weekend, I started on that project and...

Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Wedding Attire, on June 14, 2012 at 2:17 PM

So, the invoice said they'd be here by the end of next week. The shipping tracker refused to work. The the mailman shows up at my door while I'm on the phone with my mom and it's my shoes!! *squee* I...

NWR - Couch sleepers? Input wanted
Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Etiquette and Advice, on June 14, 2012 at 1:09 AM

Between one and three times a week, FH will go to bed before me. This is totally normal as he has to be up early for work and I am currently working on my next book. Most of the time I will be up a...

Fitting in "I do"
Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Planning, on June 13, 2012 at 12:28 PM

Our officiant, who is a dear friend, wrote a ceremony just for us and it's absolutely beautiful. Other than needing to figure out where to stick the readings and the unity candle ceremony, there is...

Anyone heard of mygowns.com?
Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Wedding Attire, on June 8, 2012 at 12:40 PM

I am getting a hoop skirt for under my dress instead of a regular full petticoat so I can (hopefully!) stay a little cooler. I was looking around online and came across this site that has exactly what...

Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Community Conversations, on May 29, 2012 at 5:27 PM

As of yesterday, we are two months out - yikes! A couple of weeks ago we decided to change officiants because the one we originally asked needs to deal with her DH's health issues. We asked a dear...

Aidan (Mrs. Cowgell!) in Wedding Attire, on May 21, 2012 at 8:59 PM

After a good deal of searching, I have finally found a seller on Etsy who makes the tutu style I want for the girls for a very reasonable price. Now I need to find a top for them. I thought about...
