Shoes!! Where'd you all get yours? I went with Lord and Taylor after trying DSW a few times.

Mini BAM!!! non pro pix. No, Fallon did not show up.
Claudia in Community Conversations, on July 6, 2015 at 2:45 PM

I got married yesterday! Except for a few moments at the reception where DH and I didn't know what we were supposed to do everything went super smoothly, even if not a lot went according to plan. A...

NoVA brides - let's try this again? (social)
Claudia in Community Conversations, on June 15, 2015 at 9:38 AM

So April didn't work out. Is any time in July/August good for you all? I think based on the brainstorming last time we were thinking the Tyson's area. Does that still work? Newlyweds are welcome!

21 Days!!!/Groomsman has 5 WW stars
Claudia in Community Conversations, on June 15, 2015 at 12:00 AM

(Writing before midnight) Last night FH left for his bachelor party and then it hit me - the wedding festivities are actually starting. Tonight we had a celebration dinner with the bridal party,...

I made a mistake.....
Claudia in Community Conversations, on June 12, 2015 at 9:56 AM

.... Online RSVPs. Not the greatest idea for my guests, it turns out. I was trying to save on postage for RSVP cards but I'm thinking now that would have been a worthy investment. I got a really sweet...

Not doing a first dance?
Claudia in Planning, on June 11, 2015 at 10:44 AM

I want to. I really do. But I'm not a natural dancer, and neither is my dad, and neither is FH. I've emailed them and FMIL about the songs for the dances but it doesn't look like anyone is...

New avatar/ summer???
Claudia in Community Conversations, on June 10, 2015 at 12:33 PM

Hey everyone, I have a new face! Also, has summer taken you all by surprise? Someone at work just asked how my summer's been going, and I had to pause. I just drove out for lunch, and lo, there are...

Welps, I invited Jimmy Fallon.....
Claudia in Community Conversations, on June 9, 2015 at 8:16 AM

I threw all caution to the wind and invited Jimmy Fallon because I had some extra invitations and I have nothing to lose (plus, liquid courage)! On one hand, I feel like such a fangirling loser for...

What's your favorite thing about your wedding?
Claudia in Community Conversations, on June 9, 2015 at 12:08 PM

Other than the FS, what's your favorite feature/tradition in yours? I'm stoked for the polaroid guest book. FH gave me the camera and I've ordered a ton of film. The project is kind of my baby. I'm...

Married without a license?
Claudia in Planning, on June 5, 2015 at 1:44 PM

FH doesn't get weekdays off of military training and then he gets shipped off to NC, so unless he gets released early today or the next two Fridays - of which the chances are slim - we're not going to...

lol I'm gonna be that lonely guest...
Claudia in Community Conversations, on May 31, 2015 at 10:02 AM

Not venting- I got invited to the wedding of FH's friends - actually FH was supposed to be in the wedding but can't because military training on the same day. They're nice people but I don't know them...

Military Brides - Groom absent at rehearsal dinner?
Claudia in Planning, on May 27, 2015 at 6:35 PM

Well, looks like the corps would like FH to be at Camp Lejeune on the weekend of our planned rehearsal and dinner a week before the wedding. No biggy. But it also means no bachelor party for him. Have...

SOWR - Little breakdown, but now I'm ok
Claudia in Community Conversations, on May 30, 2015 at 9:05 PM

Work was super awful stressful on Friday, as it has been for the past month, and I'm already stretched thin with the wedding in a month, moving, and so on. It wouldn't be sooooo terrible except that...

So done (rant)
Claudia in Community Conversations, on May 1, 2015 at 7:23 PM

It's t minus whatever WW says and I'm done. If there's one thing I would have done differently from the beginning, it would be to be LESS decisive. FH and I take pride in just pulling the trigger on...

Polaroid/Instax Guest Book
Claudia in Do It Yourself, on April 28, 2015 at 2:49 PM

I'm looking for a guest book where guests can stick their photos to the pages and write a note next to it. But so far what I've found has either been too pricey (~$90 at Paper Source) or the...

NoVA Brides - Social?
Claudia in Community Conversations, on March 8, 2015 at 12:32 AM

Hey Virginia ladies! On another thread there was word about doing a social in April. Do we still want to try it out?

MOG/MOB Dresses
Claudia in Style and Décor, on April 1, 2015 at 9:41 PM

My mom is having a harder time finding a dress than I did. Most dresses are evening dresses or what she considers very aging colors. FMIL came shopping and wasn't thrilled either. Do they really have...

DC/Arlington brides - Wedding day photos
Claudia in Planning, on March 25, 2015 at 10:03 AM

The venue doesn't have a great spot for all the photos to be taken so I want to go offsite before the wedding to get them taken somewhere kind of nice. I was thinking National Cathedral gardens or...

Flowers
Claudia in Style and Décor, on March 23, 2015 at 3:57 PM

I'm such a derp with these things. What are some good, budget friendly flowers? My colors are cobalt blue, white, and gold. At first I was thinking babies breath with blue hydrangeas but they're too...

Hair growth?
Claudia in Fitness and Health, on March 22, 2015 at 11:46 PM

Right now mine is about shoulder length and it's due for a trim. The wedding is in 105 days. Are hair growth serums actually effective? I don't need my hair to grow super long - just three more inches...
