Amanda in Style and Décor, on February 15, 2012 at 2:49 PM

How many of you who are using regular envelopes for your invites buying fancy ones? It's going to cost me almost $75 from paperandmore.com to buy outer, inner, and response card envelopes that...

Do you need a make-up trial?
Amanda in Wedding Attire, on February 14, 2012 at 12:01 PM

This might be a dumb question, but is it really necessary? I have been in two weddings and one bride did it and one bride did not. The makeup artist I am looking at charges an extra $50 just...

Reception response cards - Does this work?
Amanda in Etiquette and Advice, on January 3, 2012 at 7:59 PM

I know next to nothing about invitations, so I need some help! I have family members that WILL try to bring people that aren't guest list and get them in for free food and alcohol. Sounds despicable,...

Gotta love those second thoughts and doubts about your planning!
Amanda in Planning, on December 29, 2011 at 9:43 PM

I am getting so annoyed with myself because I keep having second thoughts on everything I have planned so far! I keep thinking that I could have chosen a nicer reception venue or that I could do so...

WR: Rant about people who are always unpleasant!
Amanda in Planning, on December 30, 2011 at 7:37 PM

So, I could totally be over reacting to this, but I am pissed. I am pissed mostly for my FH because this affects him and its completely ridiculous. Let me give you the background info. One of FH's...

Found the perfect garter set!
Amanda in Wedding Attire, on December 23, 2011 at 1:01 PM

I am so excited - I couldn't decide whether to go get a Colts one for FH or wear one with my team on it. I don't have to decide now! I can do both - one side will be the Indianapolis Colts and the...

How is your FH/DH with your family?
Amanda in Community Conversations, on December 4, 2011 at 7:51 PM

I don't think I have ever seen a post like this and I was thinking about it after FH and I visited my grandparents yesterday. My grandparents are both in pretty bad health and they can't do too much...

Need opinions on my alternative guest book idea...
Amanda in Do It Yourself, on November 14, 2011 at 9:43 PM

So I absolutely do not want to do a traditional guest book. I can't stand the thought of spending money on something that I will toss in a box and never look at again. FH doesn't want to do one...

Amanda in Style and Décor, on November 6, 2011 at 8:32 PM

So, after doing lots of internet research today and coming up with all kinds of ideas, I am thinking I need a theme to help tie everything together. FH and I already have our colors chosen (dark pink,...
