Beach Wedding Necessity?
Kelly in Planning, on July 27, 2021 at 9:52 AM

So the future in-laws brought an idea to us last night. They heard from a friend of a friend about using paint brushes to brush sand from your feet after the beach ceremony. And while that's great,...

Anyone else demoralized after first fitting?
Kelly in Wedding Attire, on June 17, 2021 at 5:44 AM

Had my first dress fitting appointment last night. Talk about a huge blow to the ego, and demoralizing experience. I was ready to get a whole new dress rather than deal with it. The dress that I was...

Kelly in Wedding Reception, on April 10, 2021 at 4:19 PM

Hi all, anyone else facing issues with the venue and guest counts? Our venue, due to covid restrictions, is limited to 75 guests. I'm totally fine with that. What I'm not fine with is that to pay the...

Probably Crazy, Changing Bridesmaids Dress Color Scheme
Kelly in Wedding Attire, on February 17, 2021 at 9:01 PM

So I picked my bridesmaids dress color, papaya, from Azazie. And I still love it. I just now think I want to split it two in papaya, two in a shade of teal. No one has ordered an actual dress yet....

Bridesmaid Dresses, Where to Buy
Kelly in Wedding Attire, on January 2, 2021 at 1:16 PM

So I'll preface with I'm a little old school, and possibly an older bride (I'll be 38) and most of my friends are over the whole bridesmaid dress shopping thing. And I get it, but I still sort of...

Kelly in Planning, on September 8, 2020 at 5:16 PM

Any one else feel nervous once the Save the Dates are in the mail? Not sure why. Most people know I'm getting married next year. It's a domestic destination wedding. Maybe that's why I feel nervous....

Kelly in Parties and Events, on August 25, 2020 at 3:59 PM

We are having a destination wedding next summer in the Outer Banks. Super excited. But it is about a 7-8 hour drive for most guests. So my question is should we have some sort of welcome dinner for...

Bridesmaid Dress Drama
Kelly in Wedding Attire, on August 29, 2020 at 8:03 AM

much Better Dress Shopping Experience
Kelly in Wedding Attire, on July 28, 2020 at 9:23 AM

Not sure why David's Bridal gets such a bad rap among my friends, but it was amazing. Attentive consultant who picked dresses that were perfect for me, my budget and my beach wedding with rustic Pier...

Disappointing Dress Shopping Experience
Kelly in Wedding Attire, on July 24, 2020 at 5:53 PM

Tried on dresses for the first time this week. I was nervous, but excited. It's the national bridal sale event, so dresses were advertised as being on sale. Nothing was. Or at least not the ones shown...

Not A. diy Type of Bride
Kelly in Do It Yourself, on January 28, 2020 at 3:29 PM

I am definitely NOT the DIY type. And I'm researching venues. It is completely depressing to see so many say that brides like to bring their own decorations. Yea, that is not me. But obviously we are...
