Bridesmaids and Tattoos
Charla in Wedding Attire, on April 9, 2015 at 4:42 PM

I'm a bridesmaid for one of my bridesmaids in about 3 weeks. I feel bad because I haven't been much support or given her wedding much thought other than buying my dress. The whole wedding is 1920's/...

I'm finally doing it... BAM! (Warning: This will be long)
Charla in Married Life, on April 9, 2015 at 1:51 PM

I won’t get pro pics for another 4 week, so I’ll go ahead and post the BAM I’ve been saving. I’ll start with rehearsal and the week leading up to the wedding. Things went wrong. I mentioned that week...

I know it's not Friday but I have a confession
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on April 13, 2015 at 3:12 PM

I need to be honest with you ladies because I've lied and I feel really bad about it. My Husband and I were actually married on Christmas Eve, and our ceremony was a "blessing of the union" (if I have...

WW Website and App Updates
Charla in Community Conversations, on April 10, 2015 at 4:28 PM

I love WW but there are few updates that could make the site and app so much easier and useful. 1. The website search function. I wish it worked better and provided recent threads. 2. Page numbers on...

How long to receive pictures back?
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on April 9, 2015 at 1:14 PM

I messed up. I should have asked about how long it would take to get wedding pictures back. I haven't posted my BAM because I don't really have pictures to share (our ceremony was unplugged). I sent...

Gifts for Vendors
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on April 8, 2015 at 1:05 PM

Our DOC was provided by our venue and our venue contract included gratuity. Actually, I was told venue owner not to tip any of his staff (except for bartenders) because it was already included in our...

What will you do with your dress?
Charla in Wedding Attire, on April 3, 2015 at 1:12 PM

I need to get my dress cleaned. That's very clear. But then what should I do with it? Have you all given any thought to what you'll do with your dress after the big day? Preserve it? Sell it? I'm not...

The Aftermath
Charla in Married Life, on April 3, 2015 at 1:08 PM

Just got home from our honeymoon. We had a great time and I'll be sure to post my BAM with tips and thoughts when I get my pro pics back. We came home to a mountain of boxes and 150 thank you notes to...

Wedding Day Scent
Charla in Community Conversations, on March 25, 2015 at 6:44 PM

I remembered something I forgot! I'm on my way to pick out a new perfume for Friday. Are you wearing a special fragrance for your big day? Light and airy or bold? Is it your normal scent or will this...

So Calm it's Eerie
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on March 25, 2015 at 5:20 PM

I worked a half day Monday and Tuesday. Today was my first full day off in prep for the wedding and I've already taken two naps. Seriously, I've only done laundry and cleaned up our apartment today....

New Outlook on Bridezillas
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on March 23, 2015 at 11:43 AM

I use to watch that show and think the ladies were crazy, rude, and overall horrible people. Until this week. Everyone and everything is going crazy with less than a week until the wedding. There was...

Rant: RSVP Less Than a Week Before the Wedding
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on March 23, 2015 at 9:35 AM

WTH!?!?!? My mom is like the first stop for her mailperson. She gets her mail before 9AM every morning. So, she text me and says she received an RSVP. My first thought is that it's from someone who...

Help me design my signature drink
Charla in Community Conversations, on March 20, 2015 at 10:42 AM

Alcohol service during cocktail hour at our venue is more expensive than alcohol service during reception. Of course we don't want to have a cash bar, but we also couldn't/can't afford the full bar...

Charla in Community Conversations, on March 19, 2015 at 4:02 PM

Crisis averted.... hopefully
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on March 19, 2015 at 9:48 AM

Yesterday was the first day I could begin checking the weather for our big day. And what did I see?...... 50% chance or rain. I panicked and started Googling "rainy day wedding pictures." I just knew...

My love of books might ruin my honeymoon
Charla in Honeymoon, on March 18, 2015 at 2:22 PM

I love books and I love to read, but I don't usually have the time to read as much as I would love to. So, when I first started thinking about our honeymoon I got excited about all the reading I'll be...

2 thank you cards?
Charla in Etiquette and Advice, on March 17, 2015 at 9:43 PM

Up until now I've been sending thank you cards whenever I received a gift in the mail. I wanted to make sure the sender knew we received it and ensure that I wouldn't forget. Now with the wedding less...
