My parents are generously helping us pay for our wedding, which we appreciate and understand that means we need to make some concessions. My mom added a lot of people to the guest list that I wouldn't...
I had my hair and makeup trial today and am in LOVE! Thanks to everyone that gave me feedback on my first makeup trial months ago (it was NOT good 😬) and on hair options last week! I ended up going...
Luckily my wedding isn't for another few months, but FH has an event for work next week and I asked to have my eyebrows waxed during my facial. I've done this before and have NEVER had an issue....
I'm having a hard time deciding what I want to do for my hair trial next week. I know I want a high bun because I'll have a sparkly hairpiece wrapped around it (like #3 but smaller and just crystals),...
I'm considering ordering Minted's 3-in-1 invitations with the perforated RSVP postcard because they're different, cheaper, and slightly less wasteful. I'm also interested in having them addressed by...
FH is on his annual golf trip this week with most of his groomsmen. They gifted him this shirt and I'm cracking up! I think it will be his new driving range shirt when the weather warms up around...
My cousins and aunts are flying in from Ireland and Australia for my wedding, and I'm thrilled that they are making the trip. My mom mentioned to me that they will want their hair and makeup done the...
I'm toying with the idea of getting custom Shoes of Prey. I'm picky about style and height, plus I'd really love to get red shoes! Question #1: the reviews on WW are great but there's only a few - has...
Our venue recently added a dessert table to their menu that's less extensive than a normal Venetian table and includes chocolate covered fruit, pastries, flavored syrup for coffee, and chocolate...
Our tasting is coming up later this month, where we'll get small portions of everything on the menu to try. Our immediate families are also coming with us, but FH and I will make the final decision on...
I was totally not excited about dress shopping, borderline dreading it. But I had a fabulous experience at David's Bridal in West Springfield, MA. When I went to pick up my dress, the stylist Adriean...
So the more I think about it, the more I wonder what our wedding would be classified as. Our ceremony and reception venue is in CT and over an hour from FH and I. FH's family mostly lives near us and...
I was pretty happy with how my makeup turned out, but FH says he prefers me without makeup. I love that he loves me without it, but I want to look my best on our wedding day! Is it too much? Is there...
We're taking pictures outside at a vineyard tomorrow and I'm trying to figure out what to wear!!! It's supposed to be in the 50s so I'm pretty set on jeans, but I'm torn on tops. Please let me know...
For everyone that says they're doing a honeyfund because they "don't need anything"... or those of us that just really like booze! https://www.thirstynest.com/
FH and I are debating going for our honeymoon immediately after the wedding (married Sat, leave Mon) or wait until the next calendar year. My point is that I only have a set amount of vacation for the...
Passing on great advice from a friend - start a google doc for the guest list! I shared it with my mom and FMIL so we can all add in addresses separately. It's been especially helpful for family and...
My cousin just proposed to his GF of 4 years this weekend! We're very excited for them, but just after we heard my mom immediately panicked and said "what if they pick the same date as you???" They...
So I'm traveling for work this week and everything was delayed as of 8:30 this morning.Looks like I'll be hanging out in S Florida for the rest of the week, so I hung out by the pool then went to...
I've talked to a couple of different vendors and some of them have told us (in an email) that if we pay our entire contract in cash, it is tax free. Is this something others have done? That would be a...
