Color theme and bouquets
Heather in Planning, on July 2, 2018 at 11:37 AM

Does the bouquets have to be specific to the color theme, or can I throw another color or two in there, as long as it's cohesive with the other colors?

Trial bm bouquet
Heather in Do It Yourself, on June 28, 2018 at 1:28 PM

Please give me your honest opinion. I personally really love them, but having an outside opinion is always so helpful. P.S. sorry for the stove pics. It's the best lighting I can find in my kitchen 🙄 ...

Wedding bouquet trial
Heather in Do It Yourself, on June 27, 2018 at 8:59 PM

I just purchased flowers to do a trial bouquet or two! I'm super excited as I've fallen in love with these flowers, plus they're super cheap! I also found those maple leaf bushes to help with filler....

Lantern Stress. Whodathunkit 🙄
Heather in Do It Yourself, on June 26, 2018 at 9:54 AM

At the beginning of the month I posted about the lanterns at 5 Below, and was uber excited to get some for centerpieces. Well my dumba$$ procrastinated, they went on a half off sale (...

I'm making my bouquets with silk flowers, so they can be saved, and it saves a huge chunk of money. I've never done this before, but I'm willing to put my best effort into it. Do y'all have any...

Can centerpieces?
Heather in Do It Yourself, on June 12, 2018 at 3:39 PM

I saw this on Pintrest, and I kind of like it. What are your thoughts?

What has given you those "omg this is really happening" moments?
Heather in Planning, on June 12, 2018 at 3:14 PM

I just got home from my alterations appointment, and it's really hitting me that this is happening. I occasionally get these girly, squealing moments, and this is one of them lol. I still have 157...

Under things that won't break the bank
Heather in Wedding Attire, on June 11, 2018 at 11:58 AM

Does anyone know where I can get a bustier and full slip that doesn't cost $60-$70 and above? The dress and shoes I'm fine with splurging on, but I cannot bring myself to spend that kind...

If you're looking for budget friendly centerpiece ideas, or DIYing your wedding decor, look what I found at 5 Below! They come with the LED Candle, and the lanterns come in this dark brown color and...

New favorite pair of shoes
Heather in Wedding Attire, on June 10, 2018 at 10:01 PM

I found my shoes tonight! They were a little more than I wanted to spend, but as soon as I saw them, FH says "those are the ones aren't they? You love them with all your heart, huh?" Apparently,...

Getting my guests to the ceremony/reception site
Heather in Planning, on May 29, 2018 at 4:51 PM

We are having our wedding in our backyard. Of course we don't have a lot of parking at our home, and on street parking is not an option. We do, however, have a county park across the street that has...

Flower girl and ring bearer
Heather in Wedding Attire, on May 29, 2018 at 9:54 AM

How does the flower girl and ring bearer dress? I was going to have them dress like the wedding party, but a lot of places I've been reading says to dress them as 'mini bride/groom'. I'd rather them...

Just looking for suggestions on posting your wedding party. Did you include photos of your BM and GM? Did you write up a few sentences about each person of your wedding party? Or did you just list...

Bouquet
Heather in Do It Yourself, on May 16, 2018 at 9:31 AM

I wandered around Joanns Fabric last night, and threw together a bouquet. There is more sunflowers than I would like, but they were in a bunch so I couldn't separate them. It's for a casual fall,...

Etsy Wedding Invitations
Heather in Planning, on May 15, 2018 at 3:54 PM

Has anyone bought their wedding invites or STD's off Etsy? I found the invites I've been searching for, but I've never used that site and I'm a bit confused how it works. Can anyone explain for me?

Dress Regret
Heather in Wedding Attire, on May 9, 2018 at 11:31 AM

I had a bout of dress regret the other day. I started thinking it wasn't bridal dressy enough. It's a pretty casual dress, because we're having a pretty casual ceremony and reception. I started...

Please tell me if this is super lame!
Heather in Do It Yourself, on May 1, 2018 at 12:36 PM

I want y'alls honest opinions. Being super small on our budget, wedding invites and rsvp cards are expensive! How lame is it to make a Facebook event and invite through there? I'd much rather spend...

Matching bm to Gm?
Heather in Wedding Attire, on May 14, 2018 at 11:32 AM

I'm having a fall wedding, so my colors are red, orange, and yellow. I've thought of the idea of matching the bridesmaid to the groomsmen she walks down the aisle with. One groomsmen wears a red tie,...

What "wedding traditions" are y'all sticking with? Are you not seeing each other the night before the wedding? Are you doing something borrowed, something blue? Bouquet tosses and garters? We're not...
