I like making lists on lists, I have everything ready to go, and I'm five days out. So here's my Bridal Go Bag list by type of thing. I hope someone finds this useful - add your must-haves so that I...

Emily in Community Conversations, on October 19, 2020 at 10:49 PM

Back with the pictures and updates. We checked with our guests for the two weeks after - we did have one guest test positive (asymptomatic), but then he quarantined and tested negative 10 days later....

First - thank you to the WW fam for your support (of me and of everyone here!). Be kind to each other - we're all going through a lot right now. That includes those moving forward, scaling down,...

Wedding Cards Craft
Emily in Do It Yourself, on September 15, 2020 at 5:13 PM

One of my favorite moments on our wedding day (9/12) was sitting up with my partner and reading the cards people got us. I wanted to save those and have them around at least for a few weeks, and also...

The Budget Breakdown - va and 100 Guests
Emily in Planning, on September 15, 2020 at 9:56 AM

Hi all, When I was planning I was always looking for an actual detailed budget from someone who tracked their expenses for their wedding - and I never did find one. I'm hoping to fix that for some of...

Franken-dress
Emily in Wedding Attire, on May 19, 2019 at 9:32 AM

Hey all, I'm hoping someone has had an experience with this. I saw this dress online, and I love the skirt. I could see this with a normal satin dress top, but I've got no experience knowing how to...

These are the claws of a lady
Emily in Hair and Makeup, on September 10, 2020 at 4:37 PM

I haven't gotten my nails done in probably over a decade, so this was exciting. Two more days y'all. Good luck out there. I really feel like my hand looks like a chicken foot, but that's a different...

For a Giggle
Emily in Community Conversations, on September 11, 2020 at 6:52 AM

The value I bring to the WW community is lists and laughs, and with the wedding one day away I'm fresh out of lists. So I will relay an amusing anecdote from yesterday, when I stunned a call center...

Super classy bridesmaid gifts 😂
Emily in Planning, on September 4, 2020 at 8:34 PM

I'm joking a bit, of course. I am pretty practical, as are my bridesmaids, so my big gift to them is their hotels for the weekend of the wedding. I also wrote each of them a handwritten note about how...

Give me the strength ww
Emily in Family and Relationships, on August 29, 2020 at 12:00 AM

Trigger warnings: Racism and politics - turn back while you're ahead or buckle up. I'm 14 days from my wedding, and just trying to maintain my sanity with my family - specifically my dad and his wife....

Reminder: Keep your own payment records
Emily in Planning, on August 14, 2020 at 8:29 AM

Hi all! I'm a CPA, so records are kind of my life anyway. Over the years I have caught a few clerical errors that have resulted in getting refunds, and I think it will happen with my wedding as well....

Makeup/ Hair Trial - Done! (pix)
Emily in Hair and Makeup, on August 16, 2020 at 8:09 AM

I think I'm already glad my partner convinced me to get professional makeup and hair. I'm happy with the look (we'll make a few tweaks to this day-of, like having the back more curly), and I tend to...

Emily in Community Conversations, on May 24, 2020 at 10:57 AM

Just posting in case others are looking for some wording or if you'd like to also share yours. I adapted from a website to fit our needs, and we plan to add everyone with a "yes" RSVP into a Facebook...

Ignorance is bliss
Emily in Etiquette and Advice, on July 22, 2020 at 1:38 PM

What is a wedding practice that you didn't realize was such a big deal until you were planning a wedding? For myself, I hadn't really considered the logistics involved with plus ones. I definitely...

Pantyhose + Shapewear... Awkward
Emily in Wedding Attire, on July 8, 2020 at 7:06 PM

So I don't know if I'm just dumb, but I can't figure out how you'd do pantyhose + shapewear. My dress comes down over my hips a little bit, so once the shaper and dress is on that is not coming off -...

"Real" Relationship Math (just for Fun)
Emily in Community Conversations, on July 4, 2020 at 10:37 AM

Thought this might entertain some of you - if you're gonna participate just approach with a sense of humor. Have you ever met someone who is like 20 years old and you ask how long they've been...

Low/ No connectivity at venue - recommendations?
Emily in Wedding Reception, on June 24, 2020 at 10:30 AM

Our wedding is at a venue that's in a rural area, and connectivity is effectively 0 when we were out there visiting. No cell, no 4G. The venue coordinator says they have WiFi and not to worry about...

Covid Consideration
Emily in Community Conversations, on March 18, 2020 at 8:18 AM

*Trigger warning - if you are having mental health struggles due to COVID-19, please don't read.* I think there are a lot of people with depression and anxiety over this, so I don't want to distress...
