For anyone with an outdoor ceremony that wasn't right outside of a building, how did you/do you plan to keep hidden until you get to the aisle? Our ceremony is in the middle of a field, and the...
We had our tasting last month and decided on a stuffed chicken and a flank steak as the main options, and a veggie tbd by my vegetarian MOH. FH is starting to second guess the flank steak because it...
I want to share my recent experience in case it helps others. Last weekend we went to Crate &Barrel and Macy's to start our registries. We then decided to add Amazon for a few items that weren't...
How did you decide where to register? Our friends usually do BBB, Macy's, Target, Crate & Barrel, Kohls or Amazon...I know we'll likely do C&B because FH always drools over that store, but for all the...
Hey all, I'm turning here because I know so many of you are pet parents and I just need some good, understanding vibes my way. Mon night FH and I came home and our little Abby was limping and in pain....
I know I have a lot of time to figure this out, but I'm curious what you all think. As you may know, my wedding will be at a Girl Scout camp, and if the weather cooperates the ceremony will be in the...
After reading the card box thread I realized I'm not sure where I'll put ours. The cocktail hour is not the same as the reception location, they are different buildings on the camp. I was thinking it...
Personally I've never been a fan of these at events because guests are left holding something after they eat the food. Today, however, solidified my dislike and I want to offer a word of caution. I...
Over the baseball game...Or are you? Personally I'm not a big baseball fan, but I'm being supportive, watching my FH pace and cheer on the Mets, while I sit here with our dog in her Mets jersey. :-)
My mom just left after a week of super productive wedding stuff and shopping. We found my dress (sample, $500 off and perfect), decided on bridesmaid dresses, found my mom's dress, toured the...
It was so meant to be, too. At our first appointment, near the end of my pile of dresses, the girl comes back from the office with a gown that was a sample, discontinued, headed back to the designer...
I just had to share my excitement since FH is sore about the Mets and not keen on my giddiness at the moment. Tomorrow I pick up my mom from the airport then she and one of my MOHs and I are touring...
Are we talking a week, a day, a few weeks? I'm looking to visit David's Bridal and 1-2 local boutiques. My mom is only in town for a week so I'm hoping to find the one at one of those places. How...
My parents are awesome, and are footing the majority of the bill for our wedding so we want to get them each something truly awesome. My mom mentioned recently that she needs a new sewing machine and...
I love seeing everyone's DIY projects, so show us what you did this weekend! Here is a pic of what I did. 111 double sided fabric pennants cut and ready to sew. I'll need 146 total, but my fingers...
Anyone else have to follow up with every single vendor? I know I'm a year out, but I'm used to getting under contract quickly with my vendors when I was a planner. Aside from the few that were...
I just spent the evening sending FB messages to get addresses for a good 50% of our guest list. So many people asked for the wedding date (duh, why else am I asking for their address?) and said they'd...
Rather than hide this in one of the countless recent posts about stag and doe/jack and Jill, etc...I want to leave this here. Just because something is "normal" in your area, does not make it ok...
At 3:07 this afternoon I got a call. "Hi, this is Dave, the bus driver for the wedding." I'm thinking, cool, they're touching base, but I'm not sure why. He continues, "I'm here at the first pick up...
I happened to have a vine of hops that fell down so I draped it across since that's what I plan to do with next year's hops. There will also be fabric pennants that go from the ground to the corner,...
