I'm clearly overthinking using an initial....or am I?
Becky in Planning, on June 23, 2014 at 3:16 PM

I am thinking of using our last initial on a few things...but wondering if that's weird when it is also my first initial but not FH's. For example, if our centerpieces have a monogramed "B" on them,...

I am not having a bridal party except for my kids (ages 9 & 11) a FG & RB. The song I am using (I will call you blessed by Caleb Caruth) is romantic and beautiful, but not really appropriate for the...

Becky in Wedding Attire, on June 7, 2014 at 1:56 PM

So when I picked up my dress at the beginning of May, it didn't quite fit. It went on, the corset closed and all, but it didn't sit right at the hips because it was too small. I have lost 4 pounds...

dear post office: are dark brown envelopes okay?
Becky in Planning, on June 2, 2014 at 11:23 PM

I got a sample of a dark brown envelope that I love with my ivory/red/brown invites. I haven't bought a pen yet, was thinking gold or white. Only a handful of our 80 invites will be mailed, the rest...
