For our wedding, we are having it catered by a small business that does gourmet pizzas that they make on a mobile woodfire pizza oven. Since they are more 'mom & pop' they are really flexible about...

FH said yes to a first look!!!
Charis in Planning, on December 3, 2017 at 8:21 PM

I've had my heart set on doing a first look. 1) Because it makes sense as far as timing. 2) Mostly because I really wanted that special time with just FH and I before the wedding. FH really wanted to...

Looking for topper that can be turned into a Christmas ornament
Charis in Do It Yourself, on October 26, 2017 at 3:22 PM

Yes, I know that's super specific and weird. I'm having trouble falling in love with any toppers and I don't like the idea of spending money on something that will sit in a box after. Then someone...

Charis in Planning, on October 21, 2017 at 12:49 PM

I only need a florist for the bouquets and boutonniere. The rest of the flowers at the wedding will be very minimal and we will buy somewhere else. How many florists is it suggested I meet with? I...

Are ALL vendors horrible at followup??
Charis in Planning, on October 16, 2017 at 9:46 PM

I'm so annoyed right now and I kinda need to vent. I can't seem to get anyone to get back to me! I contact cake people, caterers, makeup artists and hear nothing back for a week! So I followup.. "Hi,...

Is renting decor worth it?
Charis in Do It Yourself, on October 1, 2017 at 11:37 AM

At the Bridal Expo I met a lady that does decor rentals. Everything including the vases, lanterns, Shepard’s hooks, signs, chalk boards... everything. Just no flowers. It’s $150 for just vases...

Charis in Planning, on September 27, 2017 at 1:45 AM

Has anyone tried HotelPlanner.com for discounts on room rates? I put in a request a few days ago and got a list of hotels with much lower rates & links to book. They also sent me a few hotels that...

Book recommendations to use instead of pre-wedding counseling?
Charis in Planning, on September 21, 2017 at 1:40 AM

I few weeks ago someone posted that they were having some troubles but counseling wasn't an option for some reason. A few ladies had some books that they really recommended to read with your FH before...

What's the point of engagement photos?
Charis in Planning, on September 4, 2017 at 4:28 PM

I promise i'm not trying to sound like a jerk! I'm really curious. I think it would be fun for FH & I to do but I can't justify the expense in my head. Especially since our budget for the wedding is...
