For those who had a friend officiant, how did it go? We are spiritual and lean more towards Buddhism than the religions we grew up with. We want to know our officiant closely and are considering a...

This weekend I went shopping for FH's ring. I thought I found one in a store, but he didn't like the double bezel, so we hit up a couple more stores then went online. Amazon for the win! I ordered it...

Will somebody please explain why my favorite photographers go up in price by $1k/year? I'm OVER it. When I first contacted my favorite photographers, they were around $3k, and most of...

So last night I told my mom we found a photographer we love, and when we told her the price she freaked. I told her we would talk about it this week and get all of our expectations laid out so that...

I have narrowed it down to my top 2 favorite photographers. One is documentary, while the other has a mix of documentary/portraits/landscape. I am torn between going purely documentary and having...

Hi! My girls and I are heading to downtown LA to shop for bridesmaid dresses. Here are the criteria: - long chiffon - eggplant - under $150 - 200 after tax, shipping, alterations, etc. - custom...

I fell hard in love with how beautiful, light, airy, and romantic this dress is. Has anyone ordered from these sites? http://www.stunning-bride.com/bridal-gowns/322-ms251062.html...

Good morning. I have a question/dilemma. I am indecisive when it comes to picking photographers and videographers. Photo is important to FH, and video is important to me. Both are somewhat expensive....

I have been looking for a MOB dress for my mom, who is very current and fashion forward. I like a lot of the Mori Lee dresses I have seen, which are more evening gown types. The trouble is, when I...

I can't help but feel that I'm planning the wrong wedding. We have whittled our guest list to family and friends, about 110, but it feels like much too big a production. My family treats weddings as...

We are an outdoorsy, adventurous couple who enjoys hiking, zip lining, kayaking, etc. It is looking like our original plan of Hawaii may be out of our budget, so we are thinking of alternatives. We...

My fiance and I chose January because it's when we got engaged, has cooler weather, and I'm on break between semesters. However, I love Spring when the days are a bit longer so that the view over...

I have had a difficult time finding a flowy chiffon dress. Hopefully it will look ok with a cropped sweater/shawl. The trouble is, I have been to David's Bridal, and they have a couple, but I am...

Our wedding is quickly approaching and in between school and indecision I have become overwhelmed with choice. I still have to book our photographer and videographer, and I have an idea of the style I...

We are doing yoga in the am, which will last around 90 min. I was thinking that getting up by 7am would be ok, but now I'm concerned about the timeline. I am anticipating 6 girls plus my mom, so let's...

My girls are looking to keep their dress prices under $200, and my goal is to find long dresses around in Downtown LA and after alterations be around $150, leaving room for shoes in the...

My girls and I are all over So Cal, from Huntington Beach to Santa Clarita. Where did you go for your dresses? I'm not crazy about DB. Did you have them tailored in house? Anyone tried Downtown LA?...

We are narrowing down our venue search, and have decided to do first looks, with an afternoon ceremony around 3-5pm and evening reception within 20 minutes of the ceremony site. Of our two favorite...

One venue we are considering is DIY, has no restrictions on vendors, and has sitting and standing room for our 110 guests and dance floor. We like the simpler things in life and want to have great hot...
