Caryn in Planning, on November 6, 2023 at 10:50 AM

We have less than a week to go! How are you fixed for last-minute details? Are you stressed or zen? I'm only taking off Friday, so I'm trying to finalize vendors and take care of details (hello...

Hair & Makeup Timing?
Caryn in Hair and Makeup, on August 31, 2023 at 10:44 AM

My ceremony is at 6 pm. We will be doing a first look and some pictures before, but just us and immediate family (my parents and our kids) since we will not be having any attendants. I am going to a...

Alterations costing almost as much as i paid for the dress
Caryn in Wedding Attire, on August 15, 2023 at 9:36 AM

I fell in love with a dress online but found out that it had been discontinued. I was disappointed but moved on until I found that dress in my size in good shape at a sample sale. I was very excited...

Combining Silver and Gold?
Caryn in Wedding Attire, on February 16, 2023 at 5:23 PM

The colors I was planning on for my November wedding are burgundy (tablecloths/bouquet flowers) and gold (candleholders and chargers). These colors will look amazing in the venue. However, I just...

Caryn in Wedding Attire, on January 17, 2023 at 9:19 AM

So I went dress shopping for the first time last night and I was pretty disappointed. My dad and stepmom are coming into town next month to go shopping with me, but I wanted to narrow things down a...

I plan to order fresh greenery garlands from Costco for my long tables and add some natural (undyed) sola wood flowers to them (my bouquet and the cake flowers will be all sola). Does anyone know if...

Doing a test run on Lunss
Caryn in Wedding Attire, on September 23, 2022 at 10:39 AM

So, I absolutely can't find the dress I want in stores and had decided to go custom. I don't have an unlimited budget (who does?) so I was going to go with Anomalie. Unfortunately, it looks like they...

Glasses or no glasses
Caryn in Wedding Attire, on August 31, 2022 at 11:40 AM

Is anyone wearing glasses on your wedding day? I wear my glasses every day, but I can go without them. I'm really torn about whether to wear them or not. My fiance absolutely does not care either way....

Sunday Wedding?
Caryn in Planning, on June 9, 2022 at 8:56 PM

What does everyone think about a Sunday evening wedding? I'd prefer Friday or Saturday but the venue we want is booked. We would only have a few out of town guests, so travel wouldn't be an issue for...

3 Months Too Close to Brother's Wedding?
Caryn in Planning, on March 7, 2022 at 2:29 PM

My brother is getting married 3/18/23. My longtime partner and I were planning on getting married in 2024 but for a number of reasons June 2023 would be much better timing. We're all in our 40s and...
