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...
FH got me an aquamarine e-ring (light blue) and i loooove it but it does throw some (okay, many) people for a loop that its not a diamond. Its what he knew i wanted, though. Anyway, i want to see what...
Hi All, hubby and I had the most perfect small wedding in the Central Coast yesterday. The wind even died down just in the nick of time. It truly was the best day of my life thanks to my fantastic and...
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...
Just over a month before the wedding on a 5 month engagement (yeah I know I'm crazy but I wanted to get it over with before we moved and I changed my name) and I preliminarily PASSED!!!! ETA PHR =...
36 days to go ... it's starting to feel real and I know the next month is going to fly by. We picked up our marriage license from the county clerk's office this morning - woot woot! Just felt like...
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...
Hi All, FH and I are moving to Portland, OR area right after the wedding (posted about it on here previously). We won't be able to take our actual honeymoon until next summer because of a new job, but...
Well, I had my first wedding nightmare last night. The wedding was at my grandma's house, where I lived in high school, and which we haven't owned for 8 years - go figure. First we were trying to find...
Some of you may remember, I posted a few weeks (a month?) ago looking for help dressing up a pair of oval aquamarine studs FH bought me as an early wedding gift for the wedding. I love them but they...
Sharing here because I'm excited and wanted a forum to share. In Confession Friday last week I noted that my BFF and her 2.5 year old daughter (my god daughter and "niece") were coming to visit me at...
FH left a package at my desk while I was away earlier ... Wish he was still here so I could take a pic of me in it for you guys. Nonetheless, my WW shirt!!!! Can't wait to watch him roll his eyes and...
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...
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...
Hi All, well, when we were first looking for a venue we were looking at one that still needed to be landscaped, estimated to be done 3 months before our wedding (it was simply an open dirt clearing...
Hi guys, I'm changing my last name to FH's and am opting not to use a service like Miss to Mrs. for my name change, however am totally paranoid about not covering my bases. FH and I are moving to...
Note: only looking for earrings jackets, not full earrings. I already have studs FH bought me specifically for the wedding so trying to dress them up. (ETA: note) Hi All, I have been looking online...
Well, I'm at the point where there's not much left to do right now but what there is is pretty detailed/emotional (notes to parents, starting my vows this weekend). Ive also been kind of burned out...
When i first tried my dress i tried it with and without a belt. That was over 2 years ago (long story and original wedding date didnt happen). Anyway, I went to my 2nd fitting yesterday and am happy...
Well, some of you may have seen my posts about a seamstress botching my dress and being very concerned it couldn't be let out to fit me now. I went to another seamstress recommended by another WW...
