I know we get a lot of questions on alterations and costs on here. I just had my first fitting recently and was a little shocked when she told me what I'd be paying, so I thought it'd be interesting...

Looking for a recommendation on a digital camera that we can take with us on our honeymoon - just a simple point-and-shoot, nothing fancy, but I would like the picture quality to be great of course...

My seamstress suggested I steam my own dress, rather than paying for her to steam it. She said between me transporting it from her store to the venue (about an hour away), it is bound to get wrinkles...

I own a pair of TB flip flops (the Miller) and had to buy a full size larger than my regular size. I've heard that was pretty common but I wasn't sure if this runs true for her other shoes, like the...

Where did you buy your longline bra at an affordable price? I need one with a lower back for my dress. I've been watching some on Amazon and all seem to be $60 but maybe that is what they go...

Hello! I had my first alterations appointment on Saturday and the seamstress suggested I buy a crochet hook to help my MOH with buttoning my dress on the big day. I looked on Amazon and there are tons...

We booked our honeymoon over the weekend - 10 night southern Caribbean cruise on Princess cruise lines. I can't wait! This is our first time on a Princess cruise and I cannot wait to eat! I know that...

Our invitations were supposed to be delivered yesterday. I checked the UPS tracking information around 8pm last night and it said they had been delivered at 6:53pm and left at the front door. We...

I'm going to be ordering my invitations from Ann's Bridal Bargains. Does anyone know how often they run bigger promos for discounts? Currently they have a 25% off promo, but last week I saw a 30% off...

How much lead time are you giving yourselves to receive your RSVPs back? Our venue requires final headcount 14 days out, so I was thinking of listing the RSVP return date of 14 days ahead of that in...

I'm working on our invites and matching RSVP postcards. We are having our ceremony on the beach (behind the hotel) with a reception in the hotel's ballroom. I'd say it's a smart casual sort of dress...

My bridesmaids want to throw me a bachelorette party, but want me to pick what I'd like to do. Of course me being the worry-wart that I am, I start thinking about what will be best for the majority...

I just scheduled my first alterations appointment for mid-August, which means I need to figure out my undergarments situation quickly. I tried on my dress originally with a long line strapless bra at...

Tomorrow is my birthday, which means Starbucks has loaded a free drink onto my card - anything my little birthday heart desires. So, what should I get?? I'm open to anything! Any off-menu drinks I...

Just got back from dropping my post card STDs off at the post office - yay! I'd called earlier this week to see if they offer the hand cancelling, and I spoke with a nice man named Lee who said they...

Did anyone use or is planning to use a send and seal or all in one invitation option? I ordered a few samples from some sites and am anxious for them to arrive - they seem like a great cost savings to...

I have medium colored brunette hair that I partially highlight with a caramel color to help give it dimension (without it turning too blonde). Since I wouldn't consider my hair color treated, am I...

I remember seeing a trick about sending your STD post cards from the post office but I'm having trouble finding the thread(s). I think it was a way to prevent black lines on them - having the post...

This is probably an odd question, but for those already married or the rest of us with an upcoming big day, are you doing any pre-wedding beauty prep/trials to get you ready for what you'll have done...
