Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get my FH and FIL's to cut down on the family they're inviting to the wedding. FH hasn't even met some of these people but doesn't want to cut them from...

MOH! This is myself and my MOH Nikki. She is one of the kindest, caring people I've ever met. She's obsessed with pigs, and collects them. Out of curiosity when they moved, we boxed all of the pig...

NWR* If you have kids,
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on October 23, 2014 at 9:20 AM

What's the creepiest thing they've said/done? Around Easter time my daughter became obsessed with Marshmallow peeps (thanks a lot nana). Instead of asking for a peep though she'd ask you if she could...

*NWR at all, but I'm absolutely dying at my desk right now
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on October 21, 2014 at 4:35 PM

Since FH and I both had yesterday off since we got back late Sunday from his cousin's wedding we decided it'd be a great opportunity to get our family pictures done, especially since we have no idea...

*Rant* Went to a wedding this weekend with FH's family, now I'm dreading dealing with FMIL even more.
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on October 21, 2014 at 8:43 AM

FH's cousin invited us to her wedding this past weekend. We jumped on the chance to go since they live so far away, FH hasn't seen them in years, and I've never met them. The only downside to the...

*nwr MOH brag
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on October 14, 2014 at 2:31 PM

I figured since we always hear so much about MOH and BM drama I'd post a brag about my wonderful MOH. Unfortunately FH and I received some unexpected bad news yesterday, and he filled his BM in on the...

This woman has lost her mind
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on October 10, 2014 at 4:03 PM

So I've been trying to get a list of family from my FMIL and close family friends that they think should be invited since the end of May. She finally emails me today with a list of 87 friends that...

*KWR* So I'm invited to a lingerie shower for FH's cousin, who I've never met
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on October 14, 2014 at 8:35 AM

The shower is this Friday, the night before their wedding. Seeing as I've only met 4 people from that side of FH's family, and I've never met the bride, I'm a bit stuck as to what I should give her....

JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on October 9, 2014 at 9:49 AM

After all of the drama with his aunt! We were supposed to be leaving for his cousin's wedding next Thursday so we could spend time with his dad's side (who we don't see often, and they'll all be...

*NWR at all, but I am absolutely fuming at FH's aunt
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on October 8, 2014 at 10:01 AM

Some of you may have heard me mention that I am a part time photographer (until I finish school and will then go full time). A few months back I did FH's counsin's senior pictures at a discount for...

Has anyone else received a wedding gift that was clearly not meant for them?
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on October 7, 2014 at 11:25 AM

Our MOH and BM were married last year. Their reception venue has 2 ballrooms and 2 smaller reception rooms and will oftentimes have all 4 booked for the same night. Well when they were going through...

*NWR but why do people think it's ok to ask such personal things?
JaKLyn in Do It Yourself, on October 3, 2014 at 4:43 PM

So I spent part of my morning training someone new at work (which is the worst). After seeing pictures on my desk of myself, my fh and our daughter she flat out asked me if he was her dad. Ummm,,...

I've searched through the previous threads but gave up/didn't see what I was looking for
JaKLyn in Wedding Attire, on October 2, 2014 at 12:07 PM

Has anyone ordered infinity dresses off of Etsy and found a shop that asks for more than the hip and bust measurements? I've yet to find one, and while normally I wouldn't worry, I do have a BM who is...

*Spinoff* Have you ever experience wedding envy over another wedding?
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on October 2, 2014 at 9:54 AM

FH and I were invited to a wedding back in March that was absolutely to die for. They both have amazing jobs so budget really wasn't a concerned and you could really tell. The venue was absolutly...

Seriously though, I'll show you mine if you show me yours FH picked them out and I think he did a great job.

What is it about weddings that bring the crazy out of people?
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on September 30, 2014 at 4:11 PM

Some of you may remember past posts about my FMIL. She'd known for a month prior to yesterday that we were going to have our cake tasting, and hopefully pay the deposit. We asked if she'd like to come...

Your boss needs to use your computer at work and Wedding Wire pops up as your home page. Whoops. Guess she knows what I actually spend my time doing now

KWR bday rsvps are making me dread actually getting the ones for the wedding
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on September 26, 2014 at 10:25 AM

So I know a birthday party is nowhere near as important as a wedding but some of these RSVP's for our daughter's birthday are absolutely ridiculous. Don't call to tell me you "might make it, but it...

NWR at all, but do you know how hard it is to find a Ukulele in store in Nebraska?
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on September 23, 2014 at 4:56 PM

Sorry for the randomness but we've been looking for a Ukulele that we can buy locally for quite some time now. I want to hear/ inspect it before actually purchasing so not really digging the whole...
