My bridal shower is going to be on Sunday, July 10th and my sister and aunts are all hosting it. My sister put on the invitation to RSVP to her at her phone # by June 30th. We invited 47 people and...
Long story short - my parents and little brother moved to AZ two years ago (I knew it was the wrong move). My sister and I still reside in Chicago and my mom is going through some stuff (divorce from...
Have any of you ladies dropped enough weight in the last month (or so) of your wedding that your dress actually had to be taken in, again? I just completed my last fitting and I was able to take the...
FH and I looked at apple vacations for all inclusive honeymoon deals in Punta Cana and we found an amazing place. The suite we'd like has a private swim up pool and jacuzzi; just a dream come true....
It's all too interesting what you can come across on good 'ol Facebook when you're not even looking for anything. A pretty good friend of mine that I met at work a few years ago is invited to my...
It didn't. I guess I drank the water too because I got a BFP when I tested on Monday, 8/29! Just wanted to share DH and I are SUPER excited and nervous all at the same time. I'm currently 5w5d along...
Is ths really happening??? Surprisingly, I really haven't been stressed. All wedding stuff is done and it's gone really smoothly. I did have to travel for work last week and it always seems as though...
My RSVP deadline was on the 8th and I'm still awaiting three responses (not bad). They're all my FH's work friends and they're coming, but I'm just waiting for the actual RSVP to arrive for their...
We've decided that instead of giving out little wedding favors that we'd do an old school candy buffet. I'm talking dubble bubble, licorice laces, jawbreakers, charleston chews, gum cigarettes...all...
I'm torn between giving a speech and not giving a speech at our wedding. Right now, we'll have my MOH, BM, and my mom giving a speech and FH's brother wiill be doing a toast/blessing over dinner. I've...
This was my first DIY wedding project from scratch (without the help of Vistaprint, although, that is semi-DIY). These are my wedding menus that each guest will have at their place setting and I'm so...
My hairstylist, who is also a friend, will be coming to the hotel & doing my hair for the wedding. She's told me that it will be my "gift" and she won't be charging me. Her and her FH are also invited...
I just received an RSVP in the mail today and I open the envelope...and there's a "2" next to the "Stuffed Chicken Breast" entree selection. No name and they didn't even check if they "accepted."...
I just ordered all my wedding programs from Vistaprint for FREE! Yes, 200 wedding programs for FREE. The total came out to $32.04 for 200 of them... I used Hayley's recommendation for wedding...
We're having the ceremony & reception at the same location and all make-up/hair will be done at the hotel as well (so no salon travel time needs to be factored in). Here's what the photographer gave...
I'm struggling with this one a bit. FH and I are not religious and don't belong to a particular church, hence we don't have any personal/spiritual ties to any ordained minister/reverend. I found an...
My mom got this dress in black: http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Strapless-Taffeta-Pick-Up-Ball-Gown-646_Prom-Dresses-View-All This is my dress in a soft white:...
I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease when I was 14 years old. I've had the disease for going on 15 years now and I'm doing well. I've only had two hospitalizations, since I've been diagnosed. My...
I reached out to my photographer to see what her suggestion would be for a "day of" time line. For some reason, I feel like everyone will be rushed or there won't be enough time for us to take...
The company I worked for was just acquired by a new company on 6/13. We signed up for all of our medical, dental, 401K, etc. benefits and I come to find out that they have a wedding benefit! I...
