Well in the past few weeks we've managed to accumulate a few CD's worth of pics from our relatives, and my husband (!) has put them all on one link for easy viewing. I want to send the link to a dozen...

Hi all, my fiance's having a hard time finding an idea for his best man (brother). Let me know what your guys came up with for their best man gifts!

I'll probably need 20-30 short medium and tall glass vases for my candles that I'm using for my centerpieces. I'm putting 3 on each table and I may have 10 tables so I don't want to go to Michael's or...

Last week we finally got our DVD & proof books from our photographer, a month later than what he promised in the contract but he was in contact with us during that time so we knew why it was late. I...

Does anyone know of a website with photos of short hairstyles I can look at for my wedding? I have almost shoulder length hair, not too short but whenever I google short wedding hairstyles, it comes...

I decided to skip favors because my wedding coordinator says they’re mostly left behind and guests don’t care about them. Since I have a DW, I have enough crap to stuff in my car along with my dog &...

My fiance's cousin / goddaughter is doing a reading in our ceremony. She's about 18 and just starting college. What's a good gift besides jewelry that I can give her? I don't want her to think she has...

Last month I returned some placemats that were sent to us from our Macys registry. I had selected them online so I never saw them in person and when I got them, they weren't the color I wanted. So I...

I'm sure I'm not the first person to think of this, but it worked great for my shower & wedding gifts. I had my shower thank you's out in 1 week and my wedding notes done in 2. I'm not bragging but...

My Mom has some kind of disorder where she won't let something go until I end up screaming at her. Multiple times. She doesn’t understand when a topic is over and done with, she won’t drop it. It’s...

I picked up my gown this week after four freaking fittings, I'm so over this seamstress. When I got home I was in a bad mood and just took it out of the bag and hung it in the closet like they said...

Well this is the problem with a destination wedding- you can't use your own home stylist. I had 2 trials with 2 salons where I'm getting married, and the second stunk less than the first, so I booked...

We've got 1 set of grandparents attending our wedding, my fiance's. They're not part of the processional or wedding party technically, but they will of course be at the rehearsal and dinner because...

OK I may have gone overboard, but I got 6 or 7 big goodie bags for the kids coming to my wedding, ages 3-9. Crafty stuff for them to do and play with during and after dinner, costumes, masks, I'm...

I've been to a ton of weddings and at 3 or 4, I've seen the decorative supply box in the ladies' room with lotion, mints, hair ties, etc. It's a nice touch but I don't know whether to do it at my own...

OK I found these metallic diamond drops online and I need enough to fill 39 vases about 4" each in the bottom for my centerpieces. The vases are all different sizes, but the shortest are 6" tall. A...

I know this sounds random, but I need examples of foods that are spicy, sour & sweet. Not candy if you please. I thought of sour patch kids, hot tamales and whoppers but I'd rather use foods other...
