We got married June 8th, 2019 and I'm so excited to have our professional photos back already. Our photographer did such an amazing job. I did a first look with my mom which I highly recommend, as...

David's Bridal Alterations
Ginsteeca in Wedding Attire, on June 3, 2019 at 12:55 PM

It's still a bit too early to call and ask on the west coast, but I picked my dress up last Friday from alterations after it was steamed and made ready and there are little safety pins all down the...

What size tablecloths?
Ginsteeca in Wedding Reception, on January 23, 2019 at 2:48 PM

Our wedding reception will be in a historical hotel on the grounds of our county museum. It comes equipped with tables and chairs. The issue is we will have two tables that are 41", and eight tables...

California brides - how much time to change your name?
Ginsteeca in Married Life, on November 30, 2018 at 10:23 AM

I'm going to be booking our Disneyland honeymoon through Costco travel soon, and I'm unsure about booking it under my current last name, or whether I should book under my new last name. We're getting...

Does this match enough?
Ginsteeca in Wedding Attire, on September 9, 2018 at 9:46 AM

I bought my dress yesterday! I went a bit unusual and went with my fiance "just to look". We've been engaged nearly a year and this was the first dress I added to my David's Bridal wish list, the...

i know it's really early to order invites
Ginsteeca in Planning, on July 24, 2018 at 12:49 PM

But I don't think I want to pass up Zazzle's 60% off sale that's currently going on with their Christmas in July code. I've been stalking their site since we got engaged last fall just to try and get...

I've already booked our florist. Included in our current list of needs are my bouquet, my bridesmaids bouquets, ceremony florals, corsages and boutonnieres, and cake flowers. I didn't include...

Save the Dates and registries
Ginsteeca in Etiquette and Advice, on May 3, 2018 at 6:44 PM

I just ordered our Save the Dates this morning, but won't be mailing them til September/October. A thought occurred to me, though. I put our wedding website address on the cards, and if I have the...

Magnet Street Samples
Ginsteeca in Planning, on April 29, 2018 at 11:33 AM

Does anyone know if the free customized magnet samples look just like you would want to send to your guests? I'm hoping I will want to put it on our fridge after we receive it.

Vons/safeway flowers?
Ginsteeca in Style and Décor, on March 29, 2018 at 9:05 PM

I found out today that Vons does florals for weddings. As I am not all that worried about having flowers this seems like a cheap easy route. Our needs are pretty basic. I'm at the point I'm pretty...

Centerpieces for small tables
Ginsteeca in Style and Décor, on April 13, 2018 at 7:17 PM

We will have two 42" and eight 46" tables at our reception venue, besides the head table. I've tried googling but I'm not finding anything helpful. What's the max diameter we should do for our...

White a bad idea?
Ginsteeca in Style and Décor, on April 10, 2018 at 10:44 AM

Our wedding colors are royal blue, canary yellow, and white. We've ordered white floor length tablecloths with royal blue overlays, and canary yellow linen napkins. I was thinking of white paper lace...

Pre-arranged mail order flowers?
Ginsteeca in Style and Décor, on March 29, 2018 at 1:40 PM

I'm considering ordering my flowers from Enjoy Flowers, but can't find anything about them online. Has anyone used them before? I'm not finding a lot of info online. Their customer service seems great...

Cocktail hour in the same room as reception
Ginsteeca in Wedding Reception, on March 31, 2018 at 11:38 AM

How does this work so there's not chaos? We're having a fairly small wedding with approximately 50 guests. We're getting married at our local county museum in their pioneer village, with a short walk...

Caterer not requiring money before the wedding?
Ginsteeca in Wedding Reception, on March 21, 2018 at 10:12 AM

What do you think of a caterer that doesn't charge a thing til after your event? The preferred caterer of our venue is 10% off because we booked the venue and they don't do tastings. They say they...

This is the second marriage for both FH and I. At the time of the wedding we'll be blending our family with my two boys, ages 17 and 14, and his 8 year old son. I would love to have a special dance...

Payments or not?
Ginsteeca in Planning, on March 6, 2018 at 11:23 AM

What's the norm for paying vendors? I opted to make payments to my DOC but the venue and photographer require that they be paid in full a month before the wedding takes place. I won't have a problem...

Let the history be the decor?
Ginsteeca in Planning, on October 23, 2017 at 11:30 PM

We're considering a venue at the local county museum. It's an old Episcopal mission that was built in 1892 and later moved to the museum property. Any decor ideas? It's hard to tell from the pic but...
