How to fix not being photogenic
ChelsM in Wedding Attire, on May 26, 2015 at 2:07 PM

We got the rest of our engagement pics back (I'll post them later), and I really do love them... at least I love about 1/8th of them. I just wasn't born with that photogenic gene. My sister can take...

Trash the dress- FH really wants me to
ChelsM in Wedding Attire, on June 9, 2015 at 3:55 PM

I obviously have a while until this is relevant but work is slow. Our photographer said that he would include a "trash the dress" shoot in our package free of charge after the wedding, and FH is super...

Wedding website question
ChelsM in Planning, on June 5, 2015 at 9:24 PM

Is there a way to make it so that our wedding website doesn't display my screen name in the tab of the browser? I know if I delete it then it will just shut w my name but I don't want my screen name...

NWR: Changed my screen name
ChelsM in Planning, on June 8, 2015 at 2:59 PM

Since we did our website through WW, and screen names show up as the tab title on our website, I had to change my screen name from Muscularteeth to ChelsM. Keeping the pic the same for now. Don't know...

Paying for just one BM's dress
ChelsM in Planning, on June 8, 2015 at 1:42 PM

I have 3 BM- two are in my area, and one is half way across the country. My OOT BM is making the flight to be in my wedding, so as a sort of extra thank you I offered to pay for her dress. She was...

Letting mom and FMIL handle invites
ChelsM in Planning, on June 3, 2015 at 1:31 PM

So my mother said she would be happy to send my STDs for me to take it off my hands. Great, my hand writing sucks so I was going to ask her and FMIL to help me write addresses anyways. I don't know...

KWR: has anyone else had these weird arm bumps?
ChelsM in Fitness and Health, on May 27, 2015 at 5:07 PM

Maybe TMI but I'm hoping someone here may have had this problem- I went to a dermatologist and she literally said "I don't know" and charged me $90. Both my mom and I have these bumps on our...

Couldn't keep planned boudoir pics a secret
ChelsM in Planning, on May 29, 2015 at 11:29 AM

I'm dumb, ladies... Long story short, I added "book B-session" to the WW checklist, knowing that I would need the reminder and that FH wouldn't look at the list on his own. Well, I asked him to check...

ChelsM in Wedding Attire, on May 23, 2015 at 9:50 AM

We had our engagement shoot Thursday and our photographer sent us a few pics to hold is over. I really love what he did with editing, I wish I'd had time to get my hair at least professionally done...

Think I found the one!
ChelsM in Fitness and Health, on May 17, 2015 at 11:31 AM

Some of you may remember that a couple of weeks ago I was vascilating between 2 very similar satin fit and flare dresses. Well I went to another shop on a whim with just my sister. I thought for sure...

Should I tip our engagement photographer?
ChelsM in Etiquette and Advice, on May 22, 2015 at 3:28 PM

FH and I just had our engagement photographs taken (finally), and we should have them delivered on a USB early next week. It was really cheap (like, $100 for 3 hours cheap) because he loves...

Once you found your dress, did you shop around?
ChelsM in Wedding Attire, on May 18, 2015 at 1:45 PM

I'm 99% sure I found my dress this weekend (posted about it yesterday). It's a little more than I was hoping to spend but I'm able to do it and it won't break the budget. I also really like the shop-...

Photo Booth - Worth?
ChelsM in Planning, on May 12, 2015 at 1:06 PM

Ever since I went to a wedding with a photo booth a few years ago (and got the best pics of FH and myself as a couple that we have), I've wanted a photo booth at my wedding. It was so fun, the booth...

Opinions on dresses needed
ChelsM in Wedding Attire, on May 3, 2015 at 8:40 PM

So I went dress shopping for a second time and now I'm torn. I may go one more time, but at this point I think one of the below may be mine. The first one is La Sposa, and I actually tried it on...

Meeting with our first photographer today- Advice?
ChelsM in Planning, on April 29, 2015 at 12:46 PM

Hey ladies, my FH and I have our first meeting with a photographer today after work. I've never booked a photographer for anything myself, and I guess I'm not 100% sure what I should ask him....

Wedding Cake Serving- Why so small?!
ChelsM in Planning, on April 27, 2015 at 7:05 PM

Maybe I'm just a piggy (I love me some good cake, ok? Sue me) but I was at a wedding a couple of weeks ago and the slice of cake was wafer thin. So tiny. Also dry, but that's beside the point. Is that...

Ladies... I booked my venue!
ChelsM in Planning, on April 24, 2015 at 11:05 AM

Finally! After over a year of passively looking at venues and FH turning down every single one, and then another week of waiting for a proposal... we put down the deposit to hold 3/20/16 as our date!...

ChelsM in Planning, on April 17, 2015 at 3:41 PM

So I'm in the preliminary stages of finding a photographer, and am just gathering package info, style ideas, that sort of thing. Got everything in an excel spreadsheet to compare. I've combed through...

Unresponsive Venue- when is it too much?
ChelsM in Planning, on April 16, 2015 at 2:47 PM

FH and I toured the perfect venue last Thursday and totally fell in love with it. We're 90% sure the price is going to be right in budget, FH loves the feel of it which is a HUGE deal. Except they...

Should I have bought her wedding gift in this case?
ChelsM in Etiquette and Advice, on April 6, 2015 at 6:23 PM

One of my long time friends got married this last December, and I was her maid of honor. I planned her Bachelorette party, I bought the $150 dress from China (then had to pay another...
