In the next couple months I'm scheduling an appointment to get our portrait done for our Christmas cards. I think sending out holiday cards is a vastly undervalued resource. I had all of the addresses...

I woke up today and, since I haven't yet booked a venue, started to rethink the entire thing. Change it from beach to park, which would save a easy 1k that I could put toward... well, anything. Our...

I'm looking to buy a domain, to make it easier for guests. I can then have that redirect to a readymade site through The Knot or whatever. Anyone done this? Any advice?

Ok, so according to WWs wonderfully helpfully timeline, we need to get going on a website. I tried WW and hated it. Hated the themes, hated the way registries are integrated, hated everything. (Sorry,...

We found the venue of our dreams last month but haven't heard back from them after a couple of emails. Finally, I called the property manager today and she was so apologetic! She told me that the...

Had a wonderful weekend with the FHs family! Their was a gradation party at a beach house and we all had a blast. We only had a couple questions about the wedding, but most of them were from the kids....

I got my dress from ModCloth, an online retailer that doesn't specialize in wedding attire. It's the most beautifully made dress I've ever held! The stitching, the weight, the details! Did you get...

So, if you don't know, traditionally children and single young women used only their first initial as a monogram. When a woman married, she then used her maiden initials as her monogram. It's only...

If you get a tee shirt or mug or something personalized during your engagement (for yourself, not wedding party) what do you prefer it to say? Bride? Fiancee (or Feyoncé)? Miss to Mrs? Something else?...

I've been like a novelist with this whole wedding thing! I don't begin until I know exactly what's going to happen and how. The rehearsal dinner has been on my mind lately. We want to do something fun...

My dress is arriving tomorrow! A lovely, informal, white, ankle length dress that I'm sure I've posted enough already. The FH and I were talking about his general wishes about seeing the dress and he...

So, I'm ordering my dress from ModCloth! Very exciting! Now I need shoes and a veil. How should I shop for a veil? I'd like to try a few different styles on, preferably with the dress. Does anyone...

We just got back and it was amazing! The venue itself was a medium sized room with double doors opening to a patio under a pergola. (Obviously we'll need a slush fund for a tent in case of inclement...

So, I'm using every opportunity to get things printed between now and the invitations so that I can know which company and styles I like best. I really want postcard RSVPs, because it saves money on...

Spoke to my mother today and while we both wanted something outside she doesn't think she'll have the lawn ready before it gets too hot, so we're putting it off until early fall. Why, you may ask,...

I posted a little while ago how I was sad my sister said my nephew couldn't come because of school. Everyone thought it was kind of dramatic, and suspicious. While seeing her over the weekend she said...

I'm ok! Nobody was hurt! The car was paid for and I had dropped comprehensive and gone with basic liability, so, it's either a big repair bill or buying a new car. It's a lot. The car, some expensive...

My mother has offered to host the party at her home, but we're going to take care of planning it. I'm thinking of using an engagement photo for the invites, but i feel like there's a surprising lack...
