Desiree in Wedding Attire, on October 8, 2013 at 4:09 PM

DRESS! I'm looking for photos of REAL brides in Allure W282. Bought it, but having serious stress worrying I made the wrong choice. Who out there bought the dress and LOVES it? OR - if you got married...

Desiree in Wedding Attire, on January 20, 2013 at 6:32 PM

Hiya! I am in love with Maggie Sottero's Venice, but can't find any pics of real women in it. Anyone out there try one on or buy one? I'd LOVE to see you in it. Also, what did you pay? These "knock...

Desiree in Wedding Attire, on February 8, 2013 at 7:54 PM

I'm a street size 18-22 depending on day/designer. LOL I am SOOOOO nervous about dress shopping. I am in love with Maggie Sottero and really like Allure and Essence of Australia dresses, too. But I'm...

My FH wants to wear an ascot - and no, he's NOT David Beckham. Will we regret it later?
Desiree in Wedding Attire, on October 8, 2013 at 4:35 PM

Soooo... he just sent me a link to a photo of the dad from Downton Abbey and said he wants to look like that. Our wedding is classic, but not really vintage. Romantic, but not themey. He'd probably...

Squee! Just got my bouquets! SO beautiful and unique. (PIC)
Desiree in Wedding Attire, on October 8, 2013 at 4:16 PM

Hi ladies! I think Paper N' Lace on Etsy did an amazing job with these. Only issue is they're smaller in real life than I thought - but the measurements are correct - it's not a shop problem. it was...

Hi! Hoping you all can help. I've tried the famous "Dee Bee" big box store (stupid WeddingWire rules). I've tried the boutique in Nashua, NH. "Dee Bee" DeeBee wasn't bad, actually. The other store was...

NWR: Open invitation to Jared Leto ;-)
Desiree in Community Conversations, on March 21, 2013 at 9:28 AM

On my way out the door today, I went to give my still-sleeping FH a kiss goodbye. As he'll be away until Sunday night, I told him, "Miss you." "Already?" he says, then smiles. "That's right -- empty...

Desiree in Do It Yourself, on March 7, 2013 at 7:38 PM

I want to do fabric flowers -- organza, chiffon, silk, lace, etc. ... in blush pink, champagne, ivory and possibly dusty purple or dusky blue. But I'd LOVE to see yours before I start. I've never done...

HELP! Worried bridal store is lying. Have you seen this dress?? (Pics)
Desiree in Wedding Attire, on February 17, 2013 at 10:56 AM

Hi ladies. I tried dresses on for the first time yesterday. One store I went to offered "designer" gowns at designer prices. I didn't get a good vibe from the start. Said my ideal budget was 900, with...

Hi ladies! I'm taking on the giant task of DIY fabric flower bouquets for myself and my bridesmaids. I LOVE the vintage-y, elegant look of DIY fabric flowers. I'm looking to make flowers in satin,...

OK, brides --- how much did you pay for your dress?
Desiree in Wedding Attire, on February 12, 2013 at 10:11 AM

My budget started out nonexistent, then we decided to splurge on a wedding. At first I thought I'd just wear a white dress; now I want "the one." I was hoping to stay around $500-$700...

BM dresses from Target: Awesome idea or awesomely bad? Pics, please!
Desiree in Wedding Attire, on February 5, 2013 at 6:18 PM

Hi ladies, So.... Tar-jay BM dresses LOOK cute and you can't deny the value. But the reviews I have seen so far have been few and less than flattering. So who's gone the Target route and what did you...

Rehearsal dinner blues - advice, please!
Desiree in Do It Yourself, on January 25, 2013 at 4:16 PM

Hi! So -- lame or no? My FH and I are paying for our wedding ourselves - including the RD. We'd originally planned on keeping it simple and inexpensive, possibly a BBQ. The only catch is that our...

Who to bring dress shopping?
Desiree in Wedding Attire, on January 20, 2013 at 6:44 PM

Hi! I have six bridesmaids, but the more I think about it, the more I fear it might be best to go shopping without the party when I go to choose my gown. I have a couple of other trusted friends I...
