NWR** I'm pretty sure hell just froze over... FMIL said something nice...
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 26, 2015 at 9:15 AM

We were in a bind last night and unfortunately had to ask FMIL to babysit for a few hours ( I had a photo shoot scheduled and FH got called into work during the evening). I got tasked with the...

Favor spinoff*
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 24, 2015 at 9:01 AM

My MOH is in planning mode (I blame it on the fact that she's pregnant and has started "nesting" so now everything seems like #1 on the to do list for her) and has started planning my bridal shower...

Well color me shocked!
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 23, 2015 at 1:13 PM

Some may remember that I had on overly excited aunt and uncle RSVP for our wedding after sending out STD's, stating that they'd be staying here for around a week and a half, two weeks if possible. I...

Hard to believe, but I'm ecstatic that we had to change our honeymoon plans!
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 20, 2015 at 3:36 PM

FH and I put a deposit down for a bed and breakfast in Prague. We received an email late last night saying that the owners had just received some troubling news and would no longer be operating the...

Seriously, anyone want to trade FMILS? No take backs though!
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 18, 2015 at 8:26 AM

Crazy pants was driving me up the wall yesterday so I thought I'd just share her awesomeness with everyone else. I'm sure I'll have people lining up left and right to take her off of my hands...This...

What to do about parking permits for the wedding?
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on February 19, 2015 at 8:18 AM

Our ceremony venue requires a parking permit for anyone at the building prior to 5, and has already informed us that they are the last building that security goes through, so anyone without the permit...

*update on FMIL extending a last minute wedding invite
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on February 16, 2015 at 10:10 AM

Some were saying that maybe FMIL was confused since the otter envelope was addressed to the X family while the inner envelope was addressed specifically to her and her husband. Well come to find out,...

Sometimes, I really love my coworkers.
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 13, 2015 at 1:40 PM

Recently I attended a bridal show with my MOH and found a vendor whom I loved and decided on the spot that I would be ordering our invites through. She was a very sweet woman and the prices they...

She's back in full force, FMIL issues.
JaKLyn in Etiquette and Advice, on February 13, 2015 at 8:28 AM

It's been relatively quiet on the FMIL front this past week or so up until about 1 am this morning. She started blowing both mine and FH's phones up, waking us up in the middle of the night. Concerned...

Kind of a weird question for Celia
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 11, 2015 at 1:29 PM

This may be a really stupid question, but is it odd if you read your vows from a book and they are the only thing in said book? Recently most wedding's I've been to, vows have just been read off of a...

Was actually somewhat productive yesterday!
JaKLyn in Do It Yourself, on February 11, 2015 at 8:14 AM

I finally finished my hangers, and I booked my boudoir session with a good friend, and talented photographer. She's done a boudoir session for me before, so I can't wait to see what we do this time. ...

Need honest opinions please,
JaKLyn in Style and Décor, on February 6, 2015 at 2:05 PM

And I know that there is no short supply of those here. Our ceremony venue has a white arch we would use for the wedding (indoors) but it feels really plain. All of our flowers are made of paper so we...

We got our first RSVP.... 9 months out...
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 5, 2015 at 1:51 PM

We just mailed our STD's on Saturday and everyone seems to have gotten theirs today. Apparently in his excitement my uncle (all the way out in GA) thought that was the only thing we were sending out...

This might be a dumb question,
JaKLyn in Wedding Attire, on February 4, 2015 at 12:31 PM

But when do you typically go for your first dress fitting? Our wedding is in November, and I'm going almost the entire month of July. Some have told me to start fittings as soon as I have the dress,...

I found my wedding jewelry!
JaKLyn in Wedding Attire, on February 4, 2015 at 9:02 AM

Normally the only jewelry I wear is my engagement ring, my watch and I wear my origami owl necklace from FH about 50% of the time, so I actually really struggled with finding one stinking necklace. I...

JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 3, 2015 at 1:46 PM

So now that we've gotten the guest list figured out we thought that stuff would calm down with the FMIL. Hahaha, nope. Someone, not saying any names *cough*FMIL*cough* posted on Facebook how she...

After fighting with FMIL we finally got the guest list done and STD's sent!
JaKLyn in Community Conversations, on February 2, 2015 at 2:22 PM

Well we gave FMIL until Saturday to cut down her side of the guest list. When we showed up at their house to discuss this and make sure the cuts were made she proceeded to hand us her list, complete...

Update! FMIL strikes again.
JaKLyn in Planning, on January 27, 2015 at 8:21 AM

So you may remember me going on about how FMIL was trying to dictate the guest list, and things got a little heated between the two of us. Yesterday FH emailed her again about sending the people she...
