For those who have been listening to me vent..
Chelle in Wedding Attire, on March 26, 2013 at 4:44 PM

About my wedding dress debacle for months, I resolved it! I ended up buying a new dress, and I'm so much happier. Plus I'm still under $1000 for both dresses, and hopefully will be able to sell...

I'm going dress shopping again
Chelle in Wedding Attire, on March 15, 2013 at 11:10 AM

What crazy theme would you pick for your wedding?
Chelle in Community Conversations, on March 1, 2013 at 10:17 AM

FH and I were talking this morning about how awesome it would be to have an Edward Scissorhands themed wedding. Topiaries shaped as different animals for the centerpieces, Ambrosia salad for dessert,...

Wearing the dress YOU want vs. wearing a dress you think your FH will like
Chelle in Wedding Attire, on February 25, 2013 at 11:31 AM

Most of you know I've been having major wedding dress anxiety. My wedding is about 6 months away and I still don't think what I picked is "the one". I honestly see myself in a black wedding dress. I...

Would this look weird at our ceremony?
Chelle in Planning, on February 14, 2013 at 11:53 AM

Our ceremony room is pretty boring and we need something to jazz it up. I was thinking about making a big C & D to use as a backdrop. Would that look lame?

Should I slow down on grad school credits before the wedding?
Chelle in Planning, on January 30, 2013 at 11:59 AM

I'm currently working full time and taking graduate courses at night. If I continue to take 2 classes each quarter (which makes me a full time student), I'll be finished by June of 2014. That means...

What's the craziest thing you've ever done to lose weight?
Chelle in Fitness and Health, on January 10, 2013 at 1:14 PM

In college, my roommate and I decided to take Xenadrine (which was already a poor choice) and to take double doses of it! Not only did I not lose weight, I was out like $50 bucks, and we felt...

Centerpieces are dumb
Chelle in Style and Décor, on January 4, 2013 at 2:00 PM
