After almost 6 months of unemployment DH was finally offered a job! We're thrilled, but the only slight damper on the situation is it's a night shift, so 9:00pm-5:30am, M-F. I don't want us to become...

Sorry but I just had to complain about this to someone else besides DH. We live in an old, large three floor house that has been converted to apartments by floor. The upstairs neighbors moved in...

I was on Jezebel today and came across an article on giving wedding gifts (see link if you're interested). The funny part is that someone commented on the article and brought up WW. Apparently they...

My husband and I have a drinking game that we do every year where we find the worst possible Hallmark Christmas movie. The game is super fun and will definitely get you hammered. Our pick this year,...

I was having lunch with my MIL and Aunt-in-law(?) the other day when the aunt brought up how her daughter (we'll call her Mindy), who was recently engaged, was so embarrassed to visit a cousin of hers...

I'm a BM in a wedding where the bride lives out of state but is having the wedding in my city. The rest of the wedding party is also out of state. She wanted to have the bachelorette party in my city...

I'm organizing a bachelorette party for a bride whose wedding I'm in. For the bride it's a destination wedding but for me (conveniently) it's in my city. She also wants the bachelorette party there....

DH and I are looking to do some traveling soon and would really like a great cultural experience, and not just to stay on a resort or do official tours the whole time. I'd love to hear about some...

I'm the first person to be suspicious of anything that uses the words "cleanse" or "toxin" in relation to the body, but I have a facebook friend who has been doing this cleanse and keep talking about...

I've always been a shorter hair girl (shoulder length) but have kept my hair long since the wedding. It's starting to drive me a little crazy though and since summer is coming I'm thinking about...

Not that anyone on here actually needs the reminder, but I'm always shocked with how badly some brides treat their wedding party. My SIL is in her bff's wedding and has been having a lot of problems....

There is an organization that I've really wanted to get involved with but since I had started a new job and then got engaged the time never seemed right. I don't want to name them because it might pop...

The virgin wedding night post got me thinking about how many people actually manage to have sex on their wedding nights. How many are planning on it? DH and I decided that if we weren't too tired we'd...

DH and I just received a thank you note for a wedding gift (we were not able to attend the wedding since it was a week after our own). The thank you note was actually a small photo postcard with a...

Since a lot of ridiculous etiquette issues have come up this week I figure I'd chime in with some personal experience. True story, my older sister got married several years ago and her then FH...

We got our pro photos this week (pro BAM forthcoming) and they look amazing and I'm very happy with them. However, I do feel like there were some missing moments. For example, we took several photos...

I got this email from my mom that I feel totally deserves its own thread (although it's very wtf Wednesday). We recently got a pro pic teaser from our photographer with about 25 photos, mostly of DH...

DH and I had a fun time going through our heartfelt wedding cards and are super appreciative of all of our gifts. However, we had to laugh at one from his aunt and uncle. Although, we're not 100%...
