Rings
Heather in Wedding Attire, on August 13, 2018 at 3:05 PM

So I ordered my rings 3 weeks ago, they came in last Monday, but they were still too big. I spent the money to have they shipped back and exchanged for a smaller size, all the while freaking out...

Picking up my dress today
Heather in Wedding Attire, on July 29, 2018 at 12:54 PM

I'm going in an hour to get my dress. I only needed to have it shortened some, because I'm so short, but that's it. Is it necessary to try it on? I'm pretty confident in my seamstresses abilities, and...

What are your thoughts on loose bouquets? I absolutely love the look of them! I'm hoping my DIY bouquets will look like this 😍

Short stemmed flowers
Heather in Do It Yourself, on July 9, 2018 at 10:24 AM

Help me, my flower stems are super short and it's a pain in the butt trying to hold them together to build them! I'm not a fan of perfectly round bouquets so I've been hesitant on buying those...

Does he need to be dressed to match the wedding party? Or does he wear whatever he wants?

Will these table runners be too small?
Heather in Style and Décor, on July 4, 2018 at 11:00 AM

I found these table runners on the Wish App, which equal to a tad over 9'. We're getting 8' round tables. Will they be long enough, or not look right? I'm afraid there won't be enough over hang.
