Good news!
Katebonnykate in Wedding Attire, on July 3, 2011 at 8:13 PM

So a couple of weeks ago, having lost 10 lbs, I went to a dress fitting and they did not need to take the dress in at all. I was on my period, bloaty, and it just felt awful. I felt like my dieting...

Update on my family drama... and makeup pics!
Katebonnykate in Etiquette and Advice, on July 2, 2011 at 3:08 PM

So my uncle who isn't coming to my wedding called my favorite aunt (J) today and upset her. Among other things, he said that his wife told him that my mother and aunt J disrespected her at my shower...

August Brides, what's left to do?
Katebonnykate in Planning, on July 1, 2011 at 4:05 PM

Holy Carp! We're getting married next month! What's still on your to-do list, girls? I still need to finish my favors (half done, need to buy more tags, and they will be restocked on Tuesday), talk to...

Family vent
Katebonnykate in Etiquette and Advice, on July 1, 2011 at 3:06 PM

Hey ladies, I usually don't complain much on here... my planning is going pretty smoothly and I have little in the way of family drama, but our RSVPs are coming in, and I am annoyed. Here goes: I have...

Calling all Catholic Brides!
Katebonnykate in Planning, on June 23, 2011 at 9:59 PM

I have chosen our wedding music for the most part... Prelude will include "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring", "On Eagle's Wings", and "Ave Maria" (The Schubert) and Recessional will be "Joyful, Joyful"......

Okay, this forum is in desperate need of a fun, friendly thread. (Details/Pic Heavy)
Katebonnykate in Community Conversations, on June 23, 2011 at 9:18 PM

So here come my details! I'm making great progress. There will be several posts worth of pics here, ladies. First, our wedding bands came in! First is just the bands, second is with my engagement...

My invites came!
Katebonnykate in Planning, on June 7, 2011 at 1:10 PM

I am starting to think this wedding thing is actually getting closer! Dashing out for postage today, then addressing them tonight.

So what kind of bride are you?
Katebonnykate in Community Conversations, on May 19, 2011 at 8:33 PM

I'm clearly the kind of bride who gets things done in random spurts of productivity and then feels disproportionately pleased with herself, despite the fact that she has accomplished nothing for...

Priest gift?
Katebonnykate in Etiquette and Advice, on February 20, 2011 at 9:36 PM

Hey ladies, our officiant is a college friend of mine who was ordained last year as a Catholic priest. In addition to his stipend, I'd like to give him something nice as a thank-you. I think we'll be...

All my BMs have picked their dresses!
Katebonnykate in Wedding Attire, on February 13, 2011 at 7:43 PM

I am so happy with the way they chose! My girls have serious style. I can't get the right colors to save in two of these, but they will all be in clover with ivory trim where applicable.

Pining for a shoe
Katebonnykate in Planning, on December 19, 2010 at 8:18 AM

Man, I so cannot have these shoes. They're over $700. They'd be perfect, though, and I'm having a beast of a time finding a cute green pump. Anyone else pining over something they can't afford?...

I picked a dress...
Katebonnykate in Planning, on November 12, 2010 at 6:41 AM

I know a lot of you ladies were less than taken with it, but I love it. We're going to go with the cap sleeve, but gather it so that it's more opaque and less wide.

Dresses...
Katebonnykate in Planning, on October 2, 2010 at 9:11 PM

I liked these three in the store. Although, I'm really self-conscious and not thrilled about any of them looking at these photos... I didn't feel so... dumpy and ill-fitted in the store. I guess...

How is it possible that this does not exist?
Katebonnykate in Planning, on August 19, 2010 at 12:40 PM

I had an idea that I'd be able to find a place card holder with a little stack of books as the base. I've been looking for hours and I've found everything from fat Buddhas to cats in blue shoes to...

Bad dress experience
Katebonnykate in Planning, on August 16, 2010 at 5:15 PM

So I agreed to go look at gowns today with my mom (at least go into some stores and see what they had), even though we're still a year out. I ended up trying on three dresses, even though I said I...

Color doubts...
Katebonnykate in Planning, on August 13, 2010 at 7:31 PM

Okay, so my colors are green and lavender. I always thought of the green as the primary wedding color and the lavender as an accent, but my MOH thought I meant the reverse, since the green will...

Weight loss frustration
Katebonnykate in Planning, on July 29, 2010 at 11:22 AM

So last September, I weighed in at 167 lbs. I am 5 ft tall. This was not good, so I changed my diet (reduced portions, ate healthier) and lost about 10 lbs. I then plateaued, and I figured I wouldn't...
