Please DON'T ask me about my wedding planning.
Cynthia in Etiquette and Advice, on July 15, 2016 at 12:04 PM

Maybe its just me. I find it awkward and uncomfortable talking about my wedding plans to anybody that is not in the wedding (with the exception of WW). Yesterday my co-worker was asking how the...

Live-streaming - How do I spread the word?
Cynthia in Planning, on July 14, 2016 at 10:15 AM

FH and I were both born and raised in NY but we found each other in NM. We have family all of the country, and most will not be able to make the trip to see us marry. So my little sister said I should...

Cynthia in Planning, on July 12, 2016 at 1:15 PM

Yesterday I was touching base with my caterer, going over details. We started talking about an "overflow" table, you know for those that were not expected. I will be calling on my non responders but,...

I've lived with just my kids for over five years. During our four years of dating, there was only overnight visits yet never when the kids were around. The kids love him as much as I do, but the kids...

Wedding Band -totally random
Cynthia in Community Conversations, on June 12, 2016 at 2:10 AM

Everytime I see a post about a wedding band I think it's about a group and not about jewlery. The mind of a future musician's wife.

Is this tacky?
Cynthia in Wedding Attire, on June 8, 2016 at 1:56 PM

I am second guessing everything. My wedding is music themed, and I had this idea to have miniature music stands to hold the table numbers. I found instructions and made them. I decided to ask for help...

The un-expected help.
Cynthia in Planning, on June 4, 2016 at 9:40 PM

As a rule I have not asked for or expected anyone to help with the wedding. Friends have offered but until I can decide on what I want, I don't want to waste their time. Its my wedding so I should be...

Table Setting - Am I over thinking
Cynthia in Planning, on May 30, 2016 at 1:45 PM

For some reason I am more focused on the reception than I am on the wedding. I guess I am a hostess at heart. The original plan was to use those fancy plastic utensils for the wedding. I remember that...

I came across a comment regarding STD's being sent are like pre-invitations. Once you send an STD to someone you have to send them an invitation. My dilemma, one if my guests recently broke-up withher...

RSVP eight months out?
Cynthia in Planning, on May 23, 2016 at 11:28 PM

FH and I received a wedding invitation with an RSVP date of July, 2016. When is the wedding, March 2017. As I am still learning about wedding planning am I wrong to find this strange?

Menu ideas - what are your comfort foods?
Cynthia in Planning, on May 24, 2016 at 8:37 AM

I am going for a family type vibe for the reception. So I was thinking of serving comfort foods. BM aka my daughter wants mac and cheese or jerk flavored items. What say you?

My first experience at David's Bridal was unpleasant. Not for anything the sales person did, she was wonderful, everyone was wonderful. My disappointment came when I realized what size dress was...

Crazy thinking / thoughts
Cynthia in Etiquette and Advice, on April 28, 2016 at 12:47 PM

For a while now I have been trying to get FH to move in with me. My thought process logically, our combined household would mean less bills and more savings; emotional, just not a fan of us being...

Two of my friends were recently engaged. In fact it was her FH that told me how he had popped the question. I was very excited for them, and said I wanted to be at the wedding. This was over a year...

Originally I started a registry with Sears as we (FH and I) don't want the typical items. But I just read a marketing report about shoppers are choosing Amazon over the traditional stores to shop. Now...
