Some of us are more crafty than others and sometimes the vision in your mind isn't all you thought it would be in real life. Please tell me I'm not the only one who's had Pinterest or wedding DIY...

FH thinks I'm crazy. He doesn't understand any of this. He's always asking me what's going on with my "fake friends." He also doesn't understand how the forum works and how there can be so many...

I'm trying to decide which dress to rent for my rehearsal dinner. I'm using Rent the Runway because I'm not the type of girl to rewear a white dress/ outfit. My rehearsal dinner is sort of casual....

So, I didn't totally think about the fact that our wedding will be during Lent season. UGH! We're having a pasta bar for dinner and guest can chose their own toppings, so everyone should be fine, but...
