Harry Potter theme: our owl post
Cassandra in Style and Décor, on June 4, 2016 at 1:31 AM

Our Hedwig arrived from Amazon today and my FMIL bought him a cage. We are doing an Owl Post Station for our card and gift table. I'm so excited about our little bird!

We're taking our honeymoon on our 1 year anniversary next August. We plan to go to Hogwarts in California. I took the online virtual tour and cannot wait! I know some of you out there must be super...

Harry Potter favors arrived!
Cassandra in Style and Décor, on May 20, 2016 at 12:58 AM

My FH and I love everything Potter related. A lady from my nerd girls Facebook group made these to order for me. They have little loops for people to hang them and our names and wedding date on tags. ...

Paper flower, 1st attempt
Cassandra in Style and Décor, on May 20, 2016 at 12:55 AM

After seeing a story about one couple's amazing Harry Potter wedding, FH and I decided to add some nerdiness to our own. Part of this is making flowers out of pages from the books. Here's my first go...

85 days left and the dress came today
Cassandra in Wedding Attire, on May 19, 2016 at 12:01 AM

Feels like things are getting accomplished. FFIL is getting himself ready to officiate and trying to stay healthy enough to do so. My dress arrived and only needs some small alterations.

Is pasta too heavy and hot for a 2pm reception?
Cassandra in Planning, on May 14, 2016 at 11:39 PM

Let me just start by saying: I love pasta. I would eat it every day. Our wedding is in August. We are thinking of serving 3 types of pasta: beef, chicken, and veggie. With salad and bread for sides....

Cassandra in Planning, on May 10, 2016 at 2:16 AM

So, with moving the date up to this summer and giving us about 100 days to plan all of it, I'm feeling very accomplished. We have a venue secured, invitations ordered, dress ordered and ceremony...

Cassandra in Planning, on May 7, 2016 at 12:13 AM

Does anyone know if invitations from Wedding Paper Divas come with inner and outer envelopes or just outer and response?

Cassandra in Planning, on May 2, 2016 at 12:45 AM

Thought I would post a follow up to my previous post. Our venue is giving our entire deposit back. We have found a new venue with a lodge, huge parcel of land with forest and 12 cabins. Our guests...

FH dad is dying, so we are racing time.
Cassandra in Planning, on April 30, 2016 at 1:20 AM

We had our wedding all planned out. The deposit set to be mailed on May 1st for our August 2017 wedding. DJ picked, florist writing up a proposal. None of that matters, though. Really. I'm closer to...

One vs. two photographers
Cassandra in Planning, on April 10, 2016 at 5:24 PM

I'm wondering if any of you have had or will have 2 photographers for your big day. A couple of the companies we are looking at have the option to have 2 photographers. I'm looking for a little...

KWR: exact date you met?
Cassandra in Community Conversations, on April 9, 2016 at 1:23 AM

My FH and I can't remember the exact date we met. I see some gals who know all this. For example: "we met February 9th and started dating March 3rd." My FH and I have deduced that we met in June and...

Tacky suggestions. It finally happened.
Cassandra in Etiquette and Advice, on April 7, 2016 at 12:32 AM

I read all these posts on here about tacky ideas and think: "thank goodness I don't have to deal with that." Well, I spoke too soon. My FMIL asked if we are doing a honeymoon registry. I told her no,...

Flower inspiration
Cassandra in Style and Décor, on March 20, 2016 at 9:59 PM

A couple of days ago I posted my floral estimate... so I thought I would show the inspiration for the $1800 quote. I really do think I'm getting a lot for our money. More pics on comments.

Floral estimate *gasp*
Cassandra in Style and Décor, on March 19, 2016 at 1:05 AM

I just have to get this out. My fiance doesn't want to know individual totals from each vendor. He just wants to know how much money I need and he'll give me the cash. That being said: our wedding is...

Engagement party worries
Cassandra in Planning, on March 20, 2016 at 1:06 AM

My MOH offered for her and her husband to host our engagement party. She asked when we wanted it. We said ASAP because my FH's dad is dying and we want him to be able to participate as much as...

Venue decision freak out
Cassandra in Planning, on March 14, 2016 at 10:25 PM

We are beginning our venue search. Some of the venues in our area are already booking well into 2017 and we don't want to miss out. That being said, every time I think of putting that much money down...
