I remember a post like this about a month ago, and I figured with some of the girls wanting to know how to keep their budget in check, this might be a helpful exercise??? So, the question is: What are...

I'm planning on using mardi gras beads as my 'confetti' type part of my reception centerpieces. A few questions.... 1. I've been looking at several different sites, especially party city and oriental...

Okay, I've seen this question asked quite a few times, and I've seen some pretty strong reactions to it that I honestly don't understand. Several people have stressed that 2 is enough and 3 is...

Dear Superintendent, I thank you for these unexpected days off! However, can we please try to keep them to a minimum? I'd rather get married on June 4th than still be in school. Sincerely, Carolyn ...

I'm sure I've gained a reputation of the girl who won't shut up about The Limited, but hey! what can I say? Old allegiances die hard! ;-)...

If anyone was looking for music for your ceremony musician(s), this is a BEAUTIFUL piece (I'll try to find an mp3 of it somewhere...) http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/The-Lover-s-Waltz/1737239

Hey Ladies! FH and I are working on our invitation and RSVP wording/formatting. Where are you ladies telling your guests about your wedding wire website? Would it be weird to put it on the bottom of...

Not really a spat, just more of a disagreement between me and mom. Are ushers necessary? My take on it is that people file in and out of pews every Sunday and there is never a huge issue. (We aren't...

Just curious what you ladies did/are doing for the something borrowed/new/old/blue tradition? Looking for some interesting ideas!

I have pretty dry skin, and I have to admit I'm envious of all the pictures of brides on here where their skin has a 'shiny' glow to it. I'm a simple 'shower and be done with it' girl, but if someone...

Hey ladies! Has anyone ever ordered from or done business with thebridesbouquet.com? I think I'm definitely going the silk flower route, and I was ready to DIY. But I saw this site, and the prices...

Hey ladies! So FH and I have finally decided our theme for table numbers. As we are both tenor saxophone players, we figured we'll have all the tables named after famous tenor players (they'll also...

I'm trying to do some major editing of my guest list on WW, and this stupid Crate & Barrel add on the right side of the page keeps opening up (even though I click close) and covering all the...

I was just on thelimited.com to show a friend the wedding dress I got, and I saw they've increased their wedding dress line from 4 to 9. They're very reasonably priced!...

Hey everyone! The big thing we're trying to tackle next is our flowers. We're planning on definitely going fake with the boutonnieres, and are willing to entertain fake for everything else to,...

There's a site called spokeo.com that's a new online USA phone book w/personal information: everything from pics you've posted on FB or web, your approx credit score, address & home value, income,...

I've searched the forums and theknot.com, but I can't seem to find that article that was topic of discussion a while back about what your guests are really thinking....anyone know better than me where...

4 hours before FH gets here! I haven't seen him since Thanksgiving, and he's catching an Amtrak down from Chicago to spend my birthday with me. Because of the ice we had 'snow' days Thursday and...
