My FMIL, her sister and SIL (who I'm close with) invited us out to dinner tonight. FMIL said that she's been working on some issues within herself and has decided that she needs to make an attempt to...

Why the hell is the day of timeline so hard? All I can think of is I have an appointment at 9, need to be to the venue by 3 and walk down the aisle at 5.... ugh. Anyone care to help a girl out and...

Songs played at weddings? What makes you want to hit the dance floor and have a good time?

FH wants to have a mother-son dance at our wedding, which is fine. My question is what should I do in place of the father-daughter dance. I originally thought about splitting it between my...

And how did you come about having it? I think ours would be that we're having a glow stick bar. Every year FH and I had out glow sticks to the kids in our apartment complex for the 4th of July and...

I have two people on Facebook with just ridiculous wedding related posts. One is for a wedding we're invited to. The RSVP deadline is 2 weeks away, but they both posted today about how they're still...

It was pretty much the worst case scenario. Our photographer forgot to show up at the wedding ceremony, only 60ish people showed up out of those who RSVP'd so we had a ton of empty tables, and FMIL...

Three of the girls asked that I remind them come August that they should start thinking about alterations. All of the dresses are too long (except for on one BM) and the others need to be taken in or...

I just realized today that we're 3 months from the wedding. It doesn't seem like it should be this close yet, and seemed like we'd never get here when we picked an 18 month engagement. Anyone else...

I was over that the FIL's house last night to finish working on a prob that FFIL has been helping with. FMIL popped out every now and then to check on the progress as FFIL hurt his knee, and she...

So some may remember that FMIL decided we needed to have a meeting about the RD, and even though it was already planned FFIL asked us to humor them and come over. It was a complete shit show, and FH...

Would it be that terrible if we just emailed or texted the bridal party that the rehearsal was this day/time with dinner to follow? Are mailed invites really a must for this?

All I have left to complete our centerpieces is to rim the last few votive holders in gold, and throw together a mock up. I've been putting this off for about 4 months now. Last night FH was all over...

All because they forgot the Nebraska vs. Michigan State game was on 11/7 and she wants to go up to Lincoln the night before the game to hang out with friends.... WTF. So now we need to find our 3rd...

One of my good friends offered to do everyone's hair and makeup for the wedding as a gift. She's done my hair before and it was always fine. We tried doing my trial last night and it was awful. She...

One of my BM's is seriously driving me up the wall right now. She asked me before to remind her towards the end of July or early August to get her dress alterred and to remind her about the hotel room...
