...I just had to repost this crap to vent some more. I just started thinking about how awefult my family has been during this process. Here's an excerpt from my post: My side of the family has been...

So the favors I asked you all about (they are on my IB) have been VETOED by both the MOH and the wedding planner. Both thought they were tacky. Truth be told, after doing the mock up, so did I. Thanks...

So I have my whole family coming tomorrow. After that NOTHING gets done. So I'm calling all my vendors to confirm, and the salon states that my stylist (hair and makeup) "took off" and she has no one...

Well, my wedding is 4 days away. My family shows up today and I am absolutely DREADING it! Yesterday, my lovely mother called to rant about how much stuff she has to do, and dumped a major logistical...

So my period came 9 days early. I've never been so happy to get my period, becuase if it went the way it should I would have been dealing with it on my wedding day and honeymoon. I have no idea why it...

FH and I were online last night shopping for clothing for me for our honeymoon. He was looking over my shoulder and helping me shop. Now, I'm a size 22 (used to be 26 but working on it) so I'm...

Did it hurt? FH and I are losing a lot of weight and we both think we're going to need one, but I saw a documentary on it and it looked very very painful. How was the experience for those who went...

I bought a pair of blue suede flats for the wedding but want to dress them up with shoe clips. I want to pay less than 20$ if possible. Anybody have any suggestions?

Hey guys....just trying to relieve some stress here. It's a month before all my family shows up and I am scared.to.death. of how my mom is going to act. Will she.... 1) Purse her lips and sulk and...

So I know it sounds backwards to do a makeover AFTER the wedding, but I've grown my hair out the last two years to have it long enough for an updo, and I plan on doing something completely new...

When I purchased my dress it was two sizes too small. Incentive to lose weight, I claimed. The dress shop didn't want to order it in that size....but I persisted. I thought, no problem, I'll lose...

It hit me last night....with all the family drama surrounding the wedding, I've coped by distancing myself to protect from the drama. Now I feel quite alone. I miss my mom, who has done nothing but...

....but FUN! FH has his 5 year old triplet neices over for a slumber party. We are totally exhausted, the cat is frazzled, and the house has been turned upside down. Remind me to have them one at a...

I'm having a hard time picturing this. I'm thinking of an updo but am struggling seeing it with the veil. I didn't think I wanted a veil but when I put one on I melted. Now I'm not so sure I can pull...

I could only book myself in for hair and makeup at 930 am on the wedding day. My ceremony is 2 pm. So, I'll have around 2.5 hours of nothing to do. Am I going to go stir crazy or will it fly by? Is my...

....so my commissioner ie. the person marrying called us out of the blue today. He asked who my wedding planner was, I told him. He told me he has not been paid and "between you and I" the people in...

Background...I definitely have mother issues. I'm a strong independant logical type and have a hard time accepting/dealing with my mother who is irrational and overcontrolling. Our relationship is...

Took her to the dress shop for me to try on my dress for the first time it came in. I looooove the ivory! It had details on it that I didn't remember. My future MIL cried, so I know it looks good. Did...

Can we brainstorm ideas of what to engrave in my FH's wedding band? Funny, sappy, whatever, I'd like to get some ideas!

My dress came in 3 months early. Okay that sounds great, right? But I ordered a dress that was too small for me in anticipateion of losing weight. Yes, I've lost about 42 pounds but only 10-12 of that...
