Does anyone have any recommendations for affordable dresses for the moms? My mom doesn't want to look like a grandma. Shoulder pads are out (which likely means a lot of jacket styles). My Mom, FMIL,...
Go Rangers! I love Ian Kinsler.
We're having a very DIY wedding reception. The hall is nice-it's a new auditorium in a small town. I'm working to try and make it feel warm. Our colors are latte and golden with other shades of brown...
My hair is super-thin. I want a pretty up-do, but don't have a lot to work with. I like some loose chignons (?) that I've seen, but I'm not sure if I could pull that off. My hair is a few inches past...
Way back I bought a cheap package flower girl basket, ring bearer pillow, and guestbook. I really don't like them now. They're stark white and don't really fit with the browns and beiges we have going...
I made postcard reply cards from our invitation kit. Here they are, along with the invitations (I only have ribbon on one so far).
I really like the card boxes with three different boxes stacked up. Can I see how y'all did yours? Also, where the heck do you find the square boxes?
A while back someone posted an amazing wedding video. It was from a destination wedding and they played that "Good Life" song. I've tried looking up various key words, but I've come up empty handed....
My invitations and reply cards are from a box kit. The reply card template leaves the guest line as M_________. Am I supposed to fill that in with each guest, or do they write their names in?
The CD of our engagement pictures is in the mail. The Photographer sent me these six pictures as a preview. I'm so excited!
We've been living together for a couple years. We have an easy system going on where I tell FH what his half of the bills come to and he pays me. We realize that this will need to change at some point...
FMIL wants to know if the dads are wearing suits or tuxes. I don't really know the difference. What are you getting? Pros and cons of each?
FH's brother called on Sunday and he's getting married! Two months after us! This could get interesting.
We've taken two great vacations to Jamaica that were very affordable and fantastic. We want to go somewhere else for our honeymoon, but still want to stay tropical. We want an all inclusive place...
We're going to Punta Cana next June (a little over a month after the wedding). It will be for eight fabulous days. I can't wait for everything to get here!
I've had my dress for a while. It will need to be taken in quite a bit and there is some bead work which I know takes longer. I spoke with the alterations lady back home while shopping for BM dresses....
I'm having it right now. The guest list keeps growing. We're at 275 and we have a tiny budget. I keep redoing the budget to add the extra linens, decorations, food, alcohol, etc. It's getting so...
I'm getting ready to order decorations for our reception. I don't know if I should get white or ivory fabrics. The linens we're renting are "soft ivory." My MOH looked at them for me and said they...
Our ceremony is in one small town, reception is about seven miles away and we're staying even farther away in the hotel where we're reserving a block of rooms. I'm worried about transportation. Do we...
I definitely want to take lessons for our first dance. FH admits that he has no rhythm and never dances. Getting him to take lessons could be a challenge! Maybe as a birthday present to me? Anyone who...
