Shuttle buses? Yeah or Nay?
KarenM in Planning, on July 13, 2014 at 8:54 PM

Almost all of our guests are staying at the hotel, and there is a package that offers 3 hours of shuttle bus service before and three hours after the wedding for $1200, including the limo....

Cakes and desserts! We finally ordered our cupcake tower today and I love it! The cake was delicious and I'm not a sweets person. We're having chocolate raspberry, key lime and butter rum, all with...

KarenM in Planning, on July 10, 2014 at 11:42 PM

Our ceremony, our pictures, and our reception venue. At first I found an amazing package for an 8 person limo and a town car to take us back to the hotel for $450. But I realized that there...

We have an amazing city government town center in our town. I often see brides getting their photos there, but today we saw a couple doing their first look. She walked up behind him and touched his...

Personalized wedding fluff...
KarenM in Planning, on July 2, 2014 at 9:11 PM

So, here's a few things that I totally didn't need, but found myself purchasing anyway. In my rules, if it's less than $50, it doesn't count toward the budget...Anyone else been so frivolous in...

Not even in the Wedding Party??? Seriously? RANT!!!
KarenM in Planning, on July 1, 2014 at 8:47 PM

So, my MUH is doing my make up and my MOH's makeup for free. She's a very good friend, but she can be so damn high maintenance sometimes. I invited her to be with my MOH and I and to stay in my suite...

Thank god I asked the question...
KarenM in Planning, on June 27, 2014 at 9:39 PM

I never would have thought about asking this question. We want to take our pictures in a local park and I stopped by today and asked them whether or not I needed a permit. The answer was yes, and I...

I FINALLY found a cake topper. I have searched high and low on every wedding site, etsy and everywhere else. I finally found one that's perfect. It's a Willow Tree, and I have a small collection of...

I want to watch the Red Socks game, FH wants to watch the Tony's. It's so wrong. LOL! Do you ever feel like you are wearing the pants?

I'm probably crazy, but at least I'm a nice person
KarenM in Planning, on June 4, 2014 at 10:31 PM

So, my DOC is out of work (as in a full time job) and I was feeling really cheap for asking her to do my wedding for $500. I will need her for a lot more than the day of, for one thing, and...

KarenM in Etiquette and Advice, on May 31, 2014 at 8:41 PM

So, yesterday was my scheduled day off, and because of some idiot, I ended up working anyway. I had planned to go meet my printer to have all my stationary printed up, but because of someone else's...

KarenM in Married Life, on May 26, 2014 at 10:44 PM

That FH was the right one. I remember breaking up 29 years ago and then meeting XH. I also remember thinking "I'll never love anyone like I loved FH, so I might as well marry XH, because it won't get...

KarenM in Planning, on May 8, 2014 at 8:12 PM

KarenM in Style and Décor, on May 3, 2014 at 9:13 PM

Wow, I've come pretty close to budget on most items, but it seems like everything is just a shade over what I had budgeted for. Got my florist estimate today, of all things, and it was $26...

First big wedding stress blowout tonight....
KarenM in Planning, on April 27, 2014 at 11:19 PM

Up until tonight, FH and I have not had one single argument about the wedding. It wasn't really about the wedding, but I could tell it was the stress, that caused the argument. We never fight. Okay,...

Shoes! I've been searching everywhere for the perfect pair. My wedding colors are orange and gold, but I was open to wearing silver or gold, or even ivory to match my dress. I saw these, and although...

Dancing with your Mother...
KarenM in Married Life, on April 16, 2014 at 9:35 PM

FH just asked if he could dance with my mother. His mother passed away almost 20 years ago. I thought it was such a sweet gesture. I will dance with both my dad and my step father. I had always...
