Best. Wedding. Present. Ever.
CaitlinWife in Community Conversations, on October 29, 2013 at 9:23 AM

As some of you may know, my FH and I met because he was wearing a UT shirt. I saw him in class, sat by him, and simply said, "Peyton Manning?" Over a year later, he proposed to me in the same room...

DIY sharing!
CaitlinWife in Do It Yourself, on October 29, 2013 at 9:07 AM

I kept my DIY projects to a SERIOUS minimum, because it is really, really not my area of expertise. But my mom and I did crank a couple of things out this past weekend, and I thought I'd share. First,...

In a Perfect World
CaitlinWife in Community Conversations, on October 29, 2013 at 11:46 AM

Let's play a game called 'In a Perfect World.' Basically, if anything could happen to you right this second, what would it be? I go first: FH shows up with sunflowers and chocolate, and says he talked...

At least out loud, right? Anyway, FH and I are letting our best friend marry us. SO excited for it. Anyway, he's a Christian, as are FH and my families. And, technically, FH and I. That being said,...

Boo-hoo Bride
CaitlinWife in Etiquette and Advice, on October 25, 2013 at 9:30 AM

Confession: I am a crier. My parents are criers, my granparents are criers, its just in the blood. Also, my FH is a crier. Point being- our wedding is going to be a blubbering mess. It will be gross,...

NWR: Work Sucks
CaitlinWife in Fitness and Health, on October 23, 2013 at 9:54 AM

Lately work has sucked for me. Part of my job is recruiting and my numbers are way -WAY- down. As far as I can tell, its through no fault of my own. People are just less interested. Still, its...

CaitlinWife in Etiquette and Advice, on October 24, 2013 at 12:16 PM

I focus most of my attention on the groom during our wedding? There are some strong personalities in my family that will be dying to be the center of attention anyway, and frankly I'm just there for...

Hairdresser problem
CaitlinWife in Wedding Attire, on October 22, 2013 at 9:46 AM

So, 17 days out my poor hairdresser's father has fallen ill. So ill, in fact, there is serious question as to whether or not she'll be available for the big day. So do I go ahead and book someone...

Stand In?
CaitlinWife in Planning, on October 23, 2013 at 3:20 PM

My mom is all upset because I wasn't planning on having a stand in for our rehersal. Is that a thing? She said "the bride wants to stand back and see how everything looks. Its tradition for her not to...

Groomsman Blues
CaitlinWife in Etiquette and Advice, on October 23, 2013 at 10:34 AM

So my FH has a groomsman who was his best friend growing up, and he asked him to be a groomsman. I think its great. Slight hitch- his friend is on probation (lots of bad decisons- sigh.) and has not...

Shape wear
CaitlinWife in Wedding Attire, on October 12, 2013 at 5:50 PM

Any suggestions for backless and strapless? I'm 36D, so need something supportive. Thoughts?

Parents gifts!!!
CaitlinWife in Etiquette and Advice, on October 22, 2013 at 10:00 AM

I think even I have started this thread before, but I just can't find anything I'm happy with and time is running way out! I don't like the frames because they seem so trite, and the same goes for the...

Should I order extra cake?
CaitlinWife in Planning, on October 22, 2013 at 11:07 AM

Here's the issue: We are having a small wedding. Of INVITED guests, there will be 40, tops. The problem is that we're getting married in a church, and the members have invited themselves to the...

CaitlinWife in Planning, on October 18, 2013 at 11:49 AM

I remember someone on here saying they made a timeline for who is supposed to be doing what when on the Wedding day. Is there a template for that? Or does anyone have any good organizational tips for...
