Bachelor parties and strip clubs - opinions
Arena in Etiquette and Advice, on February 26, 2019 at 12:16 PM

So I've already been married since 2015. Strip clubs and bachelor parties recently came up again. I'll explain why. Back when we were still engaged, my hubby had his bachelor party and I just had one...

Do I pay for bridesmaid makeup trial?
Arena in Wedding Attire, on February 24, 2015 at 11:40 PM

I'm paying for the bridesmaids makeup on the wedding day. They said they'd like to do a trial first. Do I also pay for that if we all go together?

I don't like my wedding dress the way I used to
Arena in Planning, on December 29, 2014 at 12:29 AM

I still like it in some way, but I'm not crazy about it. It's not even about the price. It cost me $400, which I was willing to spend more, but that's what caught my eye at the time. Now I...

Bridesmaid Gift Ideas - Thoughts?
Arena in Wedding Attire, on April 30, 2015 at 9:43 AM

So far I've gotten my bridesmaids a tote bag with their names on it, an Urban Decay To Go pallet, and a keep sake box with their names on it from Things Remembered. I wanted to put one more thing in...

I am tired of drama - vent
Arena in Etiquette and Advice, on April 9, 2015 at 12:35 AM

I sit here in tears as I write this. My whole wedding process has been fine, except for my bachlorette party. Nonstop drama! The initial plan was to have a bachlorette party at New Orleans. It's about...

Wedding Invitation Issue with company - am I being unreasonable?
Arena in Etiquette and Advice, on March 11, 2015 at 9:39 PM

We ordered our invitations TWO WEEKS ago. There has been no word whatsoever from the company. You can't even call them. They only accept e-mail. We e-mailed them last week, they said it was due to...

Starting ceremony later than invitation start time, thoughts?
Arena in Etiquette and Advice, on January 28, 2015 at 2:44 PM

So one of my fiance's family member was complaining to my fiance about the 15 minute later start time for when I walk in. I'm putting down 3:30, but I want to start 3:45 to give a 15 minute leeway to...

Bridesmaid gave a snarky comment about my bridal hair look - thoughts please?
Arena in Wedding Attire, on March 2, 2015 at 7:08 AM

One of my bridesmaids is not afraid to hold back anything and sometimes she comes off as rude. She made a comment about my hairstyle that make me seriously second guess myself. This isn't the first...

How to word invitation cards with divorced parents?
Arena in Planning, on February 25, 2015 at 2:40 PM

My fiance's parents have been divorced for a loooong time. He's not close with his father at all. He wants his mother's name on there and I want both my parents. We're not excluding any of their...

Do you regret picking your bridesmaids?
Arena in Etiquette and Advice, on February 22, 2015 at 2:06 AM

This is more of a personal vent of mine, but I want to hear other stories as well to see if I'm not the only person here. Most of my bridesmaids I have chosen I do regret. The ones that don't live...

Alterations Complete Before and After - Thoughts?
Arena in Wedding Attire, on February 18, 2015 at 9:28 PM

I initially bought my dress and loved it, but as time went on I wanted more sparkle to it. So David's Bridal sewed on crystals. I had to go shop for it myself (huge headache) but I bought about 200...

Did anyone have or is having a one sided/lop sided wedding?
Arena in Planning, on January 27, 2015 at 10:34 AM

We have about 150 guests for our wedding. 90% of that is my fiance's family. We both live in Florida, and the only family I have is my parents and brother here. Everyone else lives all across the...

Feeling a little bummed about the bachlorette party...
Arena in Etiquette and Advice, on January 11, 2015 at 2:36 PM

So I had planned to go to New Orleans for my bachlorette party and I'm from Florida. I had given everyone several month's notice that this was going to happen. Now that there's only about a month...

What crystals to add on wedding dress? HELP!
Arena in Wedding Attire, on December 30, 2014 at 1:35 PM

I want more high quality crystals on my wedding dress, so I went to David's Bridal and they told me to go buy the crystals myself on my own and I went to Michaels and bought some. DB later helped pick...

Long veil or short veil? Need opinions
Arena in Wedding Attire, on December 30, 2014 at 3:18 PM

Which one do you think looks better with the dress? FYI - the long veil is an off white, but what I ordered online is the same color as the dress, so try and look past that if you can.
