Ladies in suits?
Holly in Wedding Attire, on February 23, 2016 at 3:35 PM

Hi all! So my FH and I decided early on that we'd have our parties be our nearest and dearest regardless of the typical gender divide. His side will be his two best friends (both female) and his...

BAM!
Holly in Community Conversations, on March 18, 2017 at 4:50 PM

I always love looking at BAMs and I'm stoked to finally be posting my own! The week leading up to the wedding I was pulling my hair out because of family drama and having to change things around last...

I'm making a little sign for display at our reception that includes some of our favorite fictional couples and ends with our names... so far we have The Doctor & Rose Ron and Hermione Aragorn & Arwen...

Rehearsal brunch options
Holly in Planning, on November 17, 2016 at 1:02 PM

Hi all! I'm having an early rehearsal so we're doing a brunch rehearsal meal instead of dinner. The thing is, with the restaurant's group events they limit it to 5 entrees for a personalized menu. I...

Heads up for party members and other gift ideas!
Holly in Community Conversations, on September 20, 2016 at 10:08 AM

I was just looking on ModCloth and didn't even realize they sold more than clothes. There are tons of cute things that could work if you need to get someone a gift! I have at least one picked out...

Anyone doing dark bridal nails?
Holly in Wedding Attire, on September 19, 2016 at 7:53 PM

Most people I've seen are doing natural or French manicured nails for their wedding. I got my nails done for the first time ever today to get a feel for if I liked acrylics. I chose a darker polish...

Ceremony music- DJ?
Holly in Planning, on August 24, 2016 at 1:34 PM

Hi all, particularly those who are already married and can advise... Originally we were planning on having a friend of ours (who is a professional musician) play during our ceremony. However she's...

Decisions, indecisions?
Holly in Community Conversations, on August 23, 2016 at 1:40 PM

Just curious what details everyone had or is having the most difficulty deciding on! Right now, after 8 months of being certain I didn't want a veil, I'm suddenly looking at them online. And I'm back...

Name change/marriage license issue.
Holly in Etiquette and Advice, on August 19, 2016 at 2:51 PM

I had been back and forth on changing my name or not. We are getting married out of state so got our marriage license this week (not sure if we'll be back up there together before the wedding, and in...

Grandmother outfits?
Holly in Wedding Attire, on August 10, 2016 at 9:21 AM

Hi all! Last night my grandmother started asking me what colors she should wear to the wedding. I've heard of MOB coordinating with the bridal party but wasn't sure about grandmothers. I personally...

Which accessories do you like better?
Holly in Wedding Attire, on March 10, 2016 at 7:33 PM

I'm not planning on wearing a veil, was wondering what you guys thought of these? Option one- thin gold/stone headband with gold/stone earrings

Why did you choose your officiant?
Holly in Planning, on March 8, 2016 at 4:50 PM

I recently signed the contract for ours and it is so exciting! I originally didn't think we would be able to use her due to her living/working a few hours from the ceremony location but I inquired and...

How did you decide on your ceremony?
Holly in Planning, on March 3, 2016 at 10:36 PM

I'm about to sign a contract with an officiant but with the contract she wants us to fill out a basic fact sheet about what we want for the ceremony. I imagined most of our wedding as nice, but pretty...

NWR: Pizza tipping
Holly in Etiquette and Advice, on March 2, 2016 at 4:45 PM

Weird question. We usually get our pizzas delivered but FH suggested I pick them up on the way home from work to save delivery fee, tip, and extra tax (that's a thing?). I always tip the pizza...

Non-pro makeup and hair?
Holly in Wedding Attire, on February 24, 2016 at 2:13 PM

Can you comment on this post if you chose not to hire a professional to do your hair and makeup? I'm considering it because I don't wear that much makeup on the regular and I still want to look like...

Bridal TV Shows
Holly in Community Conversations, on February 18, 2016 at 10:40 AM

So for those of us who enjoy watching Bridezillas, Say Yes to the Dress, etc. have you ever seen part of your wedding on one? I.e. someone who had your venue, your dress, your MUA, anything. I saw my...

Do you ever wish your engagement was shorter?
Holly in Planning, on February 15, 2016 at 1:24 PM

I've just been thinking about this...I wanted about a year's engagement but got engaged in December, didn't want to get married around the holidays so my engagement will be about 14 months. I did so...

Hotel block?
Holly in Planning, on February 2, 2016 at 8:45 AM

I've seen a lot of discussion on here about reserving a block of hotel rooms for your guests. I think that's a great idea (especially if it saves them money while booking), but my question is, if you...

Length of reception
Holly in Planning, on February 1, 2016 at 12:14 PM

Mostly just curious...how long is your reception? Our venue's package is only four hours for ceremony and reception (plus two hours beforehand to get ready). I assume the ceremony will be 20-30...

What to wear wedding dress shopping
Holly in Wedding Attire, on January 21, 2016 at 4:26 PM

I'm going on my first dress outing on Sunday with my mom. She asked if she should dress nicer or if a t-shirt and jeans would be okay. It wasn't something I had even considered. I assume I'll be...
