Brides with long torsos
Jess in Wedding Attire, on February 25, 2016 at 7:37 AM

All the posts lately about being busty have reminded me of something I realized AFTER my wedding that I wish I would have thought of BEFORE I ordered my dress... even if you're not "tall", if you have...

NWR: Internet in rural areas
Jess in Planning, on October 19, 2015 at 2:35 PM

I'm grasping at straws here and hoping that someone else has some information... we're moving to a rural area this weekend. Cable internet is obviously not available. I've been researching what other...

KWR: Winning at thank you cards
Jess in Planning, on August 24, 2015 at 7:53 AM

This is so trivial, but I need to pat my back here because no one IRL thinks this is as big of a deal as I do... I had an internal struggle ordering thank you cards. One of my friends pressured me to...

Iowa girls!
Jess in Planning, on July 27, 2015 at 1:25 PM

I tried bumping the old thread, but it doesn't seem like it actually bumped. Anyways, if there are any of you who aren't connected with me on here and are interested in having a social, send me a...

Hey Iowa girls!!!
Jess in Community Conversations, on July 1, 2015 at 2:51 PM

So we'd talked once upon a time about having a WW meetup... are you all still game?

As requested, a small BAM
Jess in Planning, on June 2, 2015 at 8:30 AM

I wasn't going to post a BAM until my pro pics came in, but I was asked to, so here it is. I had no idea how hard it is to write one of these things... I think this is my third attempt... but I gotta...

Anyone else think this is weird?
Jess in Planning, on June 25, 2015 at 4:21 PM

Received wedding invite with registry info included. One of the registries was with Pampered Chef and the groom's sister is the consultant. Really, it was less a "registry" and more an online party...

Rant - Missing my friend's reception... and I feel horrible.
Jess in Planning, on June 24, 2015 at 8:05 AM

One of my good friends got married in a quickie wedding in January. She's having her big formal reception this Saturday. When she first told me about the date, I knew that of course I'd go. Well guess...

KWR: Making a Shutterfly album is HARD.
Jess in Planning, on June 16, 2015 at 8:15 AM

I got my pro pics this weekend (pro-pic BAM will be up in the next couple of days, hopefully). First priority was to order thank you cards; second was to order a Shutterfly album. I spent between 2...

One picture tease - BEANS!
Jess in Community Conversations, on May 16, 2015 at 9:29 AM

Checking in quick on mobile... Just wanted to drop this picture here so the Beans could say hi. Please excuse how tired I look... This was the last photo of the night! Thanks for all the well wishes...

Holy balls... it's my last pre-wedding day at work
Jess in Planning, on May 13, 2015 at 7:53 AM

It doesn't seem real. In some ways, I'm not ready at all, in others, I'm ready to get back to real life. I think my over-stressed mind is ready for it to be done. Wedding brain is real, folks. This...

Bridal headband question - and fighting the spammers...
Jess in Wedding Attire, on May 6, 2015 at 8:00 AM

Since we need legit posts, I'll post a really petty question. I totally changed my wedding hairstyle up, which means I can no longer wear the gorgeous, but large, flower I bought. A headband is pretty...

Dress fitting win!
Jess in Wedding Attire, on May 5, 2015 at 8:00 AM

Since it seems like I spend most of my time here bitching about my wedding, I figured I'd post something positive for a change. My final fitting was last night and the dress fit me perfectly. It was a...

It's the petty things.
Jess in Planning, on May 4, 2015 at 8:09 AM

My "tragedy"... 13 days before my wedding, my ring finger nail broke off. I grow pretty long natural nails, and I've always kind of been known for them, so this pissed me off in major fashion. Unless...

Finally have DIY progress!
Jess in Do It Yourself, on April 20, 2015 at 7:49 AM

So, 25 days out and I finally have my first DIYs to share. I actually got the hangers done a couple of weeks ago and just didn't get around to posting them at that time. They were a pain in the ass......

Hair/head pieces.... and go!
Jess in Wedding Attire, on April 17, 2015 at 10:41 AM

I need help. I have a gorgeous flower that I want to wear, but after 2 failed hair trials, I'm wondering if I should try something else out... maybe a headband of some type. Where are some good sites...

Is this ok? Role for a friend.
Jess in Planning, on April 10, 2015 at 9:39 AM

I’m way too overstressed right now to feel like I can make good decisions, so I want to see if I’m about to wander down an unacceptable path on something. Is it ok to have a friend hang out with the...

Hey dancers, I need help!
Jess in Planning, on April 3, 2015 at 11:40 AM

The only kind of dancing I know how to do is the middle school plod around in a circle thing and I'd rather not do that during our first dance. Can someone suggest what dance would be the appropriate...

At a loss with my BM...
Jess in Planning, on March 30, 2015 at 8:28 AM

So last week I posted about being so stressed out that I was having panic attacks and I emailed my BMs (aka my "good friends") and getting an email back from one of my BMs that was very rude. After...

NWR: With friends like this....
Jess in Planning, on March 25, 2015 at 8:15 PM

I've been beyond stressed out lately... it's a culmination of things, some wedding related, most not. I reached my breaking point over the weekend and have been so on edge since that I've been...
