I went and picked out a dress back in August with my mom. We didn't take photos of me in the dress, and when I tried it on I really liked it. Wasn't in love with it, but it worked. It was in my...

I'm wondering when I should do my HMU trial? HMUA said a week or two before the wedding, but that seems like it would be cutting it WAY close. Especially since I'll be using extensions. I'm sure if I...

I don't have a BP, but my 5-year-old son will be the ring bearer. Where would you have him sit/stand during the ceremony? Does he stand by me? Stand by FH? Or do I have him in a seat in the first row...

On the WW checklist, it says this is overdue for me. However, we are having a beach wedding so he will be wearing khaki linen pants and a white button down. (Nothing formal, and we will likely be...

The venue we chose for our reception has the option for a sweetheart table, which is initially what I thought I wanted to do, but now I'm kind of thinking it would be awkward to seclude ourselves to...

There are 2 rather stressful things happening this week for me. First, tomorrow marks 4 years since my step-mom took her own life. It is always a hard day for me as I was close to her and considered...

Hi everyone, I joined a week(ish) ago. I just wanted to say hello and let y'all know that being on here has actually got me excited about everything going on. I was very apathetic about a wedding. I...

My guest list is capped at 30. All out of town people know when/where and have their travel booked already. Is it necessary to do a STD or can we just do the invitations 6-8 weeks before and call it...

Our wedding will be on the beach with a Newlywed photo session immediately after at sunset. I plan on spending about 10-15 min doing photos with family and my little boy with FH and me. After that I...

I have a 5-year-old son from a previous marriage. I am looking for ideas on how to include him in the ceremony WITHOUT having any kind of unity sand/candle ceremony. We are having a very simple beach...
