I'm torn lately... I picked up my dress from the salon and now I'm wondering if I should find a petticoat/full slip to add a little poof to the bottom. It's kind of a sheath dress and it still needs...

Website RSVP?
Caitlin in Etiquette and Advice, on February 14, 2017 at 11:17 PM

My FH thinks we can just not put RSVP cards in some of our invites (friends and "tech savy" familiy) and instruct them to RSVP on our website. Yeah it will save us some money on postage but I think...

Where did people get their flower girl dresses?
Caitlin in Wedding Attire, on January 19, 2017 at 5:01 PM

I'm not going to demand my flower girl get a certain dress but I thought her mom would find it helpful if I give her some affordable options. I see a bunch of cute ones on pinterest but the sites to...
