Kelly in Honeymoon, on June 15, 2016 at 7:49 AM

What tools have you found most helpful when planning a vacation? How do you find the cool local stuff instead of just touristy things? FH and I are planning our honeymoon in Asheville, North Carolina,...

Kelly in Etiquette and Advice, on June 10, 2016 at 4:17 PM

Learn from my mistake... I did a final count of our RSVP's today and realized that I didn't include FH and myself in my initial count for the caterer.

Kelly in Community Conversations, on June 9, 2016 at 8:28 PM

I'm working on making an activity book for the kids at our wedding and I wrote a poem for the first page of their book. I'm definitely not a poet, but what do you guys think of this? We know that...

My grandma broke her hip last night. I'm not sure how bad it is because my Grandpa is really upset and doesn't understand medical procedures, but she's having surgery on it today. My mom is usually...

Kelly in Planning, on May 24, 2016 at 9:39 AM

A few weeks ago there was a post here that talked about cake-cutting songs. Ever since then, I've tried to find a list or template that I could fill out for what songs I need to pick. I haven't been...

Kelly in Etiquette and Advice, on May 22, 2016 at 6:17 PM

I've talked to a few families that claim their invitations never arrived. I know the addresses were right, but they must have have gotten lost in the mail. Out of 65 invitations, at least 2 completely...

Most of FH's extended family is unable to attend our wedding because they live in another country and one of his cousins is getting married the weekend after us (local to them). We've received three...

Kelly in Wedding Attire, on April 22, 2016 at 3:04 PM

Kelly in Wedding Attire, on April 20, 2016 at 5:04 PM

I found a local jeweler who was willing to custom-design a ring to match my engagement band for a very good price. I had a feeling that it was too good to be true, but he drew a beautiful sketch of...
