Have you had the boning removed from your not strapless dress? We're you happy with the results?
Harts&Bows in Wedding Attire, on June 16, 2017 at 9:03 PM

I love my dress but the boning (runs vertical like a corset) hits me all wrong. It is a dress with at least 1 inch on each strap (v neck). I'm thinking about removing it since it's not needed to hold...

Well, it's 4am in California and I've been wide awake for 2 hours. I'm yawning but can't, for the life of me, shut off my brain enough to sleep. We did a nice family meet and greet last night and I...

Harts&Bows in Planning, on August 19, 2017 at 3:34 PM

I'm meeting with our photographer this weekend and put together a pretty standard shot list but keep worrying I might miss something. Are there any shots you wish you had asked for or that pleasantly...

Harts&Bows in Wedding Attire, on August 1, 2017 at 9:02 PM

ETA: After this BBQ wedding post I have some concerns - wondering if my dress is too fancy for a wood-fired pizza wedding? It's outdoor/rustic venue but we have an equestrian theme to it all (I'm...

NWR: looking at moving to Portland, OR after the wedding
Harts&Bows in Community Conversations, on August 3, 2017 at 10:12 AM

If you've lived in the area, I would love your thoughts on neighborhoods, etc. both in Portland and the surrounding suburbs. We've visited and generally liked the feel but didn't have moving in mind...
