OMG. My officiant emailed me last week, and because she was asking me for information I didn't have, I didn't email her back. I'm waiting on tax returns to book the ceremony also, and the...

So, I want to make my own centerpieces with real flowers, so that requires doing it myself, with some help, the day before. I was thinking of inviting my sisters, mother and other women in my family...

Wedding dress shopping with me. Wow! I'm super excited. He's my best friend. I'm a little sorry that it won't be a surprise, but we're going on Sunday anyway. Who knows? Maybe I'll buy something...

That I love, but I have no idea how much she charges right now. It's making me crazy because I just want to shift the budget to accommodate her, but I'm not sure I can shift it enough. Fingers...

I'm having a really hard time booking a block of rooms for the hotel. There is one hotel that is a mile from the reception site, but doesn't have a bar, for $110 a night. There is another hotel...

I see everyone complaining about their in laws, and I have to tell you, my in laws passed away a long time ago. I was lucky enough to have met them both when they were still with us. Especially my FIL...

I booked my caterer today. They are SO awesome and perfect. I never thought that I would be able to afford such yummy food. I adore my event coordinator too. She's perfect for us. So excited. I had...

We have a slew of OOT guests. Literally 80 out of 108 guests are coming in from other states or even countries. We can't possibly host a rehearsal dinner for all of them, but I was wondering if a...
