Dress from David's Bridal?
Cassandra in Wedding Attire, on February 20, 2016 at 11:52 PM

Did anyone get their dress from David's Bridal and finance it in-store (not credit card)? Can you tell me what their payment plan is? (Down, monthly, etc.) I'm going in tomorrow and would like to know...

Non-pro small BAM
Cassandra in Community Conversations, on August 13, 2016 at 4:39 PM

On my cell phone, so may have to post a bunch of separate photos. The days leading up to our big day were frought with stress and disaster. The day of... perfect. Loved every minute!

KWR: Best guy friend has worst timing ever.
Cassandra in Etiquette and Advice, on August 6, 2016 at 11:08 AM

(He goes by a different name than what is in this, for those concerned about privacy.) So... 6 days until my wedding and my best guy friend (we've been friends since 5th grade) drops this epic love...

Memes of encouragement... or just freakin' funny
Cassandra in Community Conversations, on August 4, 2016 at 11:04 AM

Yesterday was a rough, going to throat punch everyone kind of day in my wedding planning world. I'm sure some of you can relate. When I'm in these moods, I ask friends to hit me with their best memes....

Who's making you crazy during planning?
Cassandra in Planning, on July 29, 2016 at 8:41 PM

For me, it's my FMIL. I know she's trying to be helpful, but she always has several alternate suggestions for every decision I make. And every time she comes along shopping for wedding stuff, she...

NWR: Does anyone else have an obsession with small biz, wah type stuff?
Cassandra in Community Conversations, on July 20, 2016 at 7:55 PM

(WAH = work at home) I am totally obsessed with 31 Bags and Jamberry nails. My FH is very understanding and just laughs at my massive collection of both. I have a binder for organizing my jams, and...

Dancing on the grass?
Cassandra in Etiquette and Advice, on July 25, 2016 at 9:56 PM

We are super low-budget. More than likely not having dancing. If we do, though, do you think it's awful for people to dance on grass? It's all level and maintained. No hills or holes. Our venue...

UPDATE NWR: puppy is really sick
Cassandra in Planning, on July 19, 2016 at 12:20 PM

So, it is parvo. The vet said that she is in really good health otherwise, so if they get her going on the medications and i.v.s, she should pull through in the next 24 to 48 hours. I'm trying to not...

FINAL UPDATE: NWR: puppy is doing better and back home
Cassandra in Planning, on July 20, 2016 at 7:50 PM

We just picked our puppy up from the vet. Luna is back to her normal self, chasing our other furry creatures and the kids all over the place. She has to finish off her antibiotics, but otherwise, she...

NWR: puppy is very sick
Cassandra in Planning, on July 19, 2016 at 2:28 AM

We got a new puppy 2.5 weeks ago. She's almost 9 weeks old. She's been really sick for 2 days. Took her to the vet today and he gave her some medicine for her upset stomach. Tonight, she got much...

Do I pay for her alterations, too?
Cassandra in Planning, on July 14, 2016 at 10:17 PM

Background: due to FFIL being terminally ill, at the first of May we moved our date to this Aug 12th instead of next. I have tried to make all the costs super reasonable for everyone. They all paid...

Cassandra in Wedding Attire, on July 13, 2016 at 8:57 PM

Picked up my dress today! Wish I could just wear it around the house!

29 days left, got the license and sort of feel nauseated.
Cassandra in Planning, on July 13, 2016 at 3:03 PM

I totally love my man. We've lived together for 9 months now and every day there seems to be something that reaffirms the rightness of us. I absolutely want to marry him. Most of the things are...

Dress too short update.
Cassandra in Wedding Attire, on July 9, 2016 at 6:59 PM

So, today my MOH and I went to find her a dress. She is VERY busty, so we have been struggling to find one to fit her. This morning we had a yard sale to raise wedding funds and I told her that we...

Dress is too short. Photo added.
Cassandra in Wedding Attire, on July 6, 2016 at 11:55 PM

36 days out and did my final dress fitting and it's at least 2 inches too short. Seamstress cut off "excess" fabric, so no going back. I suggested altering it to tea or knee length and foregoing the...

KWR: FFIL in ER
Cassandra in Etiquette and Advice, on July 6, 2016 at 1:01 AM

FFIL has terminal cancer and so we moved our wedding up a year to this August so he can attend and participate. He has taken steps to be able to officiate. He is in the ER at the moment, struggling to...

Flowers done! And FFIL update.
Cassandra in Do It Yourself, on June 30, 2016 at 6:18 PM

Today I and my FMIL put together the wedding flowers. We were able (with a sale and coupons) to get all of them at Michaels for $100. My bouquet alone was going to cost $100. FFIL is...

54 Days and a million beads.
Cassandra in Wedding Attire, on June 18, 2016 at 11:49 AM

Okay. Maybe a million is an exaggeration. I bought my dress online for $200. It's very pretty, but all lace, no bling. So, I'm doing all the beading myself. I was super stressed about it, but...

64 days left, mile long list... think I'll read a book.
Cassandra in Planning, on June 8, 2016 at 4:35 PM

Anyone else have this feeling of complete lack of giving even one fudgecicle about your wedding to-do list? It's 90 degrees out, we don't own an air conditioner, and it's cooler in the shade outside....
