We did it and it was an amazing day! There were lots of things that went wrong, but at the end of the day it didn’t matter. Hands down my favorite moment of the day was seeing my now husband’s face...

Jill in Hair and Makeup, on August 18, 2019 at 6:57 PM

Ok so I had my hair and makeup trial today. The hair I loved but I didn’t get a picture. I had her take it down because I didn’t want FH to see it and he was picking me up. The make up I didn’t love....

Jill in Wedding Attire, on June 17, 2019 at 12:43 PM

My dress comes in next month and I am starting to think about finding a seamstress. Should I start contacting them now or do I wait until my dress comes in? I wasn’t sure how that is supposed to work....

Jill in Ohio Planning, on June 15, 2019 at 6:24 AM

We met with the Flowerman last week. This particular florist is popular in our area because they are supposed to be cheaper since they offer a DIY option. We are having a semi-destination wedding...

Jill in Do It Yourself, on May 31, 2019 at 7:02 PM

Just an FYI for anyone that is planning on using square mirrors for centerpieces. I found a box of 6 mirror tiles for $10. They look the same as the ones you buy for $4-5 a piece but...

Jill in Wedding Ceremony, on May 10, 2019 at 6:28 PM

My FH is extremely introverted, but much to my surprise, he wants us to write our own vows. Any one who wrote your own vows, how long did that take? I’m just worried that with all the planning and...

Jill in Wedding Attire, on April 30, 2019 at 8:28 AM

So I absolutely love my dress! I spent $2,033 with tax and a fee to expedite and to have the lace on the bottom come unattached. The dress has so much detail and I feel amazing in it. I...
