We picked up props from Party City, the dollar store, and a few things we had lying around. Inexpensive flowers on the fence made for a pretty backdrop (even if it wasn't exactly as imagined) and...

Ivy ORP in Married Life, on October 13, 2019 at 7:00 PM

Thursday was emotional, magical, and all we could have hoped for our intimate ceremony in one of our favorite places. The drizzle cleared up before we left for the ceremony. Our officiant was funny,...

Today is the day we make it legal. We are still having our handfasting this Saturday with friends and family, but this is the intimate ceremony we wanted before all the chaos. And it had to be on...

Ivy ORP in Wedding Attire, on October 2, 2019 at 3:37 PM

I called around and looked at all the reviews for cleaners in our area that could steam or press my all tulle dress before the wedding. I bought it online so I couldn't get it done at a typical...

Wedding Party Vs. No Wedding Party
Ivy ORP in Planning, on August 16, 2019 at 10:42 AM

I have been reading these forums for a while and it seems like there is so much wedding party drama. I do not want to blame or finger point in any direction, things happen and we all have to own our...
