Shortening trunk boning on wedding dress - anyone done it? (dress was already altered once)
Harts&Bows in Wedding Attire, on June 9, 2017 at 5:37 PM

Okay, I bought my wedding dress almost 4 years ago. No, I'm not crazy. I was engaged before (broken) and fell in love with my dress when looking at that point in time. It was one of the few things I...

Harts&Bows in Planning, on June 7, 2017 at 4:44 PM

Hi All, our venue is taking care of ordering beer/wine for our wedding (no hard liquor allowed at the venue - its a winery). They told us to get our own non-alcoholic beverages. Our wedding is small...

Where to find MUH outside of WW vendors
Harts&Bows in Planning, on May 26, 2017 at 1:20 PM

Hi All, I know I've seen mention on here of another site/app to look at for MUH vendors but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. I reached out to my super local salon but they can't cover...

KWR: Feeling a bit bummed - my dad's side of the family unable to attend
Harts&Bows in Planning, on May 26, 2017 at 12:36 PM

Well, I guess this is the risk we took. FH and I decided to have a short engagement to accommodate his dad easily attending the wedding, get in front of seasonal conflicts where we live, and because...

No advice request, just wanted to share because it makes me happy. We picked up FH's ring yesterday and he put it on to check the size and asked to keep it on. It has now been on for 16 hours. That...

Thoughts on MIB/FIB/FFIL, etc gifts - heartfelt letter instead?
Harts&Bows in Etiquette and Advice, on May 24, 2017 at 5:09 PM

I'm curious peoples' thoughts on this. I have been thinking about gifts for our parents (of which we have 7 due to divorce/long-term 2nd marriages). I mentioned to my mom that I wasn't sure what to...

Harts&Bows in Planning, on May 16, 2017 at 12:47 PM

Hi All, I spoke with our prospective DJ last night and he brought up something that had me concerned - I wanted your thoughts. He said oftentimes at smaller weddings like ours (40-50 people) he has a...

NWR - FH just got laid off
Harts&Bows in Planning, on May 16, 2017 at 4:55 PM

Well, mostly just looking for a little support I guess. I'm not really ready to tell my friends and family yet. FH and I are paying for our own wedding. Venders are booked, date picked, invites...

Harts&Bows in Do It Yourself, on May 13, 2017 at 6:45 PM

Well, "take 1" on our centerpieces. Only thing missing is the wood rounds they'll be put on (they're at a family member's house at the moment). Tables will be rounds with white burlap tablecloths....

Sigh. So, my mom, whom i am very close to, is very excited and wants to help with the DIYing. The problem is she's jumping in without input. Shes made the below signs for me, knowing i will need...

Hi All, I'm in the process of finalizing my venue and they want proof of wedding insurance. Who did you all go through for yours? Did you have a good or bad experience? Hoping to get this set this...

Question about ceremony music - can a dj do it?
Harts&Bows in Planning, on May 10, 2017 at 2:51 PM

Hi All, So the music aspect of a wedding is pretty foreign to me and I'm just now digging in. We are doing an outdoor ceremony and a reception in the same space. The space does have some traffic noise...

Thoughts - venue landscaping getting overhauled - will be done approx. 3 months before wedding
Harts&Bows in Planning, on May 5, 2017 at 5:28 PM

Hi All, FH and I went to look at a venue today that appears to have the potential to be really cute (based on landscape plans/proposed landscape elements). A long-standing winery in the area just...
