In addition to the fiasco with the photographer today, I also was in the hospital, and my specialist needs to put me back on steroids. A month before the wedding. My wedding dress fittings have...
I always wondered WHAT on earth people do with all those flowers after the day of. We left on our honeymoon two days after, so the ones that were left in the venue we hung to dry in our shed, and I...
I can't even believe it! All the hard work was worth it in the end. We had a very relaxed, very easy going wedding. The food was wonderful, the weather perfect, and most people behaved them selves. We...
My FIL kept us up all night with drama (kinda wedding / travel related) - last I knew his sister was drunk and lost in the NYC subway system. I went to bed. You're an adult, you deal with it. We had...
The girls threw me an awesome bachelorette party this past weekend! We all went down to the casinos in CT (Mohegan Sun!) had an amazing dinner, caught a roof top cover band concert, went dancing, and...
The "Grand entrance" you walk in holding / shaking your bouquet to the reception. Then you swing into your first dance immediately, the music is playing, its wonderful. Where the heck did the flowers...
I feel a little like the big birthday got a little lost in the last minute wedding-school finals-crazy of it all, but YAY 30! This will be the year I get MARRIED! *SQUEE*
I finally have my table numbers done, and my card basket- what do you think? Two weeks!! eek!
We're thinking about rescuing a dog, and I have been worrying we are being irresponsible by considering it. The dog would be home for about 8 hours alone, confined to two (large) dog proofed rooms,...
My wedding is on a Sunday. I have been a bridesmaid on a Sunday, and the bride insisted we have our hair done professionally. At our own expense. For a 2 pm ceremony. Have you ever tried to find an...
Table mock up!(image one) We're still waiting on our number clings for our plates (image 2) We may go with the larger plates, we haven't decided yet, or another color overlay. And of course, lots...
Our Justice of the Peace is a family friend who is marrying us free of charge (normally there is a fee) as our wedding gift. She was invited to the wedding either way, and offered as soon as she found...
We've gotten about a quarter of our guest list RSVPs back - and not a single decline. Not a one. There are some people we "know" are not coming (and have known since before we invited them)- out of...
Well.. dresses. Yes, it turns out I will be a two dress bride. Which is not at all what I planned, but the dress I ended up liking and buying was super plain jane. My mother hated it, and just...
We just bought a home together, and prior to that, to save money, FH moved into my studio apartment. Of course his one bedroom apartment did not fit into my studio... so we each put some things into a...
Table numbers! Did you do escort cards? Place cards? Some other cute idea? Those of you in that newly wed glow - how did yours work out? Could people see them, were there a back up at the escort table...
I have been on pins and needles! The day had a rocky start... our (brand new) car broke down, then there was a bit of miscommunication getting connected... so we were about 45 minutes behind. I was...
My bridesmaids got together with my mom and threw me a lovely shower! They did a brunch, with baked goods, a ham, and quiche - yum! Some family came in from out of town, and it was great to see all my...
Which part of wedding planning can you *just not even*? For me... It's the registry. We need things, we really do, we're moving in together for the first time, and have outgrown our college era things...
I am wearing my family veil, and I have no idea how to wear my hair with this type of veil. It is very similar to this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Juliet-Cap-Bridal-Veil-/131069563769 And my...
