I hope this can be followed. Pictured below is my ceremony venue. I am using white wisteria to line my aisle. Pic #2. It will also be placed on the pergola. I have ordered a 36" H to hang in the back...
We met with our caterer this week and received his quote. He came in $2500 above budget. We talked to him about changing up the menu to get in budget and this is what we are thinking. We are...
Last night, FH and I went to a friend of mines wedding. Well hosted, plenty of food, drinks, open bar. What FH and I noticed was that every dance (first & parents) was cut short. They literally danced...

Thoughts? I'm working on making my own bouquets. The top is mine, the bottom left my bridesmaids, and the bottom right is my flower girls. Any helpful tips or advice? I have not taped or bound the...
I'm watching Fox NFL Sunday and when they show the panel I notice all of the men wearing pocket squares have them folded literally into a square. Is this new? I'm so used to seeing a triangle. What...
I've seen numerous West Coast, Northern, & Southern brides & grooms on here. Just wondered who else is from NC and if so where? How's your planning going? Congratulations to ALL brides & grooms!
