So my mother offered to pay for our venue and she called them yesterday to ask what the final payment would be so she could send them a check. At the end of the convo the lady she spoke to said "OH by...
I have been toying with the idea of using river rocks with names written on them in metallic marker so they don't blow off a table. However some friends suggested printing a chart and putting it in a...
Aaaaaaand.....we have 29...out of 64 back....that is a 45% rate of return...I am absolutely livid because while almost everyone from FH's side got theirs back to us, the few people from my side did...
While Pinterest is wonderful for inspiration, I think it has ruined basically everything "unique" about weddings today. You see something on there and you think "OH HOW CUTE" only to find about 3 of...
What is the worst thing you experienced, saw, had to participate in, deal with, fix at a wedding where you were a guest or member of the bridal party? One outdoor wedding we attended had everyone...
When I bought my dress the boutique gave me a deal with their in-house alterations lady to "fix" my dress. My dress is OOAK and off the rack it is 12 sizes too big. I was hesitant to purchase it with...
So, I had no idea that FH's mother-son song was a big secret he was keeping from his mom. My mother and my FIL's came over for dinner and to make conversation my mom brought up the song FH chose for...
We met with our officiant - we are stoked. He already did a mock up of what our ceremony will be like and what he will say. I am 100% good with everything he came up with - except 1st Corinthians....
SO it's been almost 3 weeks since invites went out - the to-be-in by date is Sept 1st. So far we have only had 43 people RSVP (only 15 cards out of 64 have come back), two people who said they mailed...
So I made these. Elastic, elegant, not color specific, less than $10 in crafts from Hobby Lobby.
I sent them out on Saturday, the first three came today - yep - not a single return address. I used a green colored pencil to "hide" the number in the leaves on my RSVP cards, otherwise I would have...
Invites went in the mail on Saturday morning. In that time (between Saturday and today) two guests have died and my mother removed my grandmother's invitation and gave a long winded spiel about not...
And what a pain in the ass it was I ordered "send and seals" because I fell in love with the design. Well...send a seals can absolutely come apart in the mail so I ordered envelopes for them on...
About a month ago I made a post about if corsages were necessary - everyone agreed they were old fashioned. Well, since then my mom has INSISTED that since I made bouts for the men, I MUST have...
I have narrowed down first dance songs to 10 different ones and I am going to make FH choose (if I give him options and have him choose from those the outcome is usually good). However, I am sort of...
So I need to decorate two arches. Below is a picture taken at my venue from another wedding. The venue director said they do not care what we hang on the arch just as long as it is removable. We can...
I am going to purchase small gifts for the men but I wanted to spend a bit more on the ladies. The gent's gifts will come out to about $25 each from me (FH I think is going to have custom bar...
Both my girls are coming from opposite sides of the country so I do not want to laden them with large totes or anything cumbersome for their return flights. I am going to order them both real pearl...
So I made all the men really nice boutonnieres - even one for FFIL and my brother who will be an usher. I was going to make wrist corsages for the ladies as well - my mom, FMIL, and my grandmother....
FH turns the big 3-0 today. A few weeks ago there was a viral video going around FB where you can use silicone molds in the shapes of Lego bricks to make gummy candy...well IT WORKED!!!! OMG he is...
