Drinks question

Corinne_ in Community Conversations, on October 27, 2015 at 12:22 PM

Our venue is managed by a park, so hard alcohol is forbidden, so we'll only have beer and wine. Our caterer said we should limit our beer and wine selection as they otherwise will charge us for...

This is really cute

Corinne_ in Community Conversations, on October 20, 2015 at 1:57 PM

After the wedding was cancelled the week off, the Brides parents threw a dinner for local homeless people since they already had paid for everything anyway:...

No Cake

Corinne_ in Planning, on October 19, 2015 at 2:33 PM

So FH and me decided this weekend that we will skip the cake. We're having a brunch wedding and we're both not the biggest fan of cakes. We were going back and forth about Whole Food cakes or other...

NWR: Scripture or verse for Baby Shower

Corinne_ in Community Conversations, on October 16, 2015 at 10:58 PM

I'm invited to FHs cousins baby shower and they ask that you bring a scripture or a verse for a card for the mom. They are very religious so this makes complete sense. I was brought up catholic, but...

Processional / Recessional music

Corinne_ in Planning, on October 13, 2015 at 3:19 PM

We are trying to figure out processional and recessional music. We had the idea of using the Wedding March from Mendelssohn because absolutely nobody would expect us to use it. It's a really common...

Need some advice re Boudoir Pics

Corinne_ in Wedding Attire, on October 5, 2015 at 2:06 PM

A boudoir studio that I'm on the mailing list for was looking for models last week and I signed up thinking there was no harm in trying. I got an email this morning saying that I was among the chosen...

PSA: Dyson

Corinne_ in Community Conversations, on September 22, 2015 at 5:08 PM

I know a lot of you have mentioned having Dyson on their registries. We got ours refurbished and it works just as great. It comes with a 6 months warranty as well. They are still expensive, but way...

Zola?

Corinne_ in Planning, on September 20, 2015 at 1:28 PM

I tried to use the search, but only found older stuff. Has anybody here used Zola for your registry? What was your experience? No, I'm not talking about the Honeyfund options of course, but about...

E-pix are in!

Corinne_ in Community Conversations, on September 16, 2015 at 2:42 PM

I was a bit nervous, since I gained some weight over the last years and I'm really not used to be photographed. I feel like I look a lot different than when I see myself in the mirror. I still feel...

We are meeting our DJ tomorrow. We saw her once before at her regular gig and she came over to say a quick Hi between songs and FH has been emailing her. What things should I be asking her tomorrow? I...

Spinoff - Cleaning Brushes

Corinne_ in Wedding Attire, on September 15, 2015 at 1:45 PM

I'm not really good about cleaning my face in the evening (I don't wear lots of makeup, so it feels like it's not necessary, but I know it is). So thinking about getting a cleaning brush. What kind do...

Sunglasses as favors

Corinne_ in Community Conversations, on September 12, 2015 at 8:24 PM

I know favors are not necessary and often a waste of money, but we were talking about custom sunglasses today. If you do 100, they are about $2 each. We would just do white glasses (that look...

Corinne_ in Wedding Attire, on September 9, 2015 at 3:41 PM

Girls with shorter dresses

Corinne_ in Wedding Attire, on September 8, 2015 at 8:26 PM

My dress is tea length and I was pretty convinced so far that I want a birdcage veil. All the pretty long veils make me reconsider it though. Did anybody wear a short dress here and what did you do on...

NWR: Cold Sores

Corinne_ in Wedding Attire, on August 26, 2015 at 4:21 PM

I tried to bump another post about this, but it somehow didn't work. I'm having the worst cold sore outbreak of my life! My whole lower lip is swollen and I'm in pain. I tried every home remedy...

Show me your DIY Centerpieces!

Corinne_ in Planning, on August 11, 2015 at 4:29 PM

I know that I still have time, but I'm thinking about centerpieces right now. I don't want anything fancy, so I'm not sure right now if I can manage to DIY or if I would be better off hiring somebody....

Attending a wedding when you are planning a wedding

Corinne_ in Planning, on August 7, 2015 at 12:49 PM

We went to the wedding of really good friends yesterday (he's gonna be one of my bridesmen) and you really look at them differently if you are planning you own. The wedding was really great, there are...
