Makeup trial... Opinions please!
L + A in Wedding Attire, on March 16, 2015 at 8:25 PM

Let me know what you think. I'm thinking of switching the gold to a more champagne and not so yellow gold. Also, bolder falsies. Thoughts? Anything else I should change? Thanks ladies!

Neither of us have been summoned before... Ladies what can we do to get out of it? Anyone have experience with this? We have our wedding on a Saturday and leave for our honeymoon that Monday so he...

The elusive little brats don't sell in the city of Seattle, just outside of it, I swear. Finally able to get my hands on a box of trefoils.... Eating them at work. A sleeve might be gone soon....

Updated: Divorced parents can suck sometimes... Rant/need advice.
L + A in Wedding Attire, on March 3, 2015 at 11:33 AM

So I had told my dad a while ago I was having my mom walk me down. My dad walked out on my mom for my stepmom when I was 3, and my mom and I moved to Washington when I was 10. So long story short,...

99 days today! If there are any other May 30th brides, or even June brides, what do you have left? I need to get details done, so signage, finalize all my vendors, guestbook, and makeup trial, and...

Who to invite from my job with change in position, I need advice.
L + A in Etiquette and Advice, on February 16, 2015 at 9:04 PM

I'll try to keep it simple-ish. In October, after I already sent out STDs, I got a promotion essentially from being assistant manager of one branch of a financial institution to an AM of the region. 6...

My stepdad is a home brewer, and he's making beer and mead for us for the wedding! The mead has already been started but the beer needs to be started soon so he asked what types so, I need to poll all...

My cousin, who lives in Green Bay, is a year older than me and got married May 31st last year... Our wedding is May 30th this year. So the day after our wedding, which is a Sunday, is their 1 year...

He wants to wait to share on FB but I want to share with everyone! Her name is Lily and she's about 4 months old. So backstory, FH and I have wanted a corgi for a while, but weren't actively looking....

I'm not your damn travel agent. It's called Google.
L + A in Etiquette and Advice, on January 14, 2015 at 8:14 PM

My dad called today to "finalize his reservations" for flight and hotel from AZ. He asked me if the price he was looking at was "good" and to find some hotels for him in Seattle so they can stay a...

Anyone heard of Card Avenue registry? Thoughts?
L + A in Etiquette and Advice, on July 22, 2014 at 5:46 PM

This is not for me, BTW! I have a good friend getting married in August and I got her invite, and she's registered at BBB (normal) and Card Avenue. I had to look it up because I had never heard of...

KWR: Experiences in changing jobs within 6 months of the wedding?
L + A in Etiquette and Advice, on January 7, 2015 at 11:14 AM

Does anyone have any stories about how the process went? Do you find that a potential employer turned you down because of your time off you already need? Is it worth it? I ask because I received my...

Hair makeup trial pics... Honest opinions needed!
L + A in Wedding Attire, on December 28, 2014 at 1:17 PM

Overall, I felt that my trial was really... Half assed. She didn't even take off the mascara and eyeliner I had on, and used that as a "base". Didn't use eye primer so within a few hours my eyeshadow...

Tipping your MUA/hairstylist during a trial?
L + A in Wedding Attire, on December 16, 2014 at 11:11 AM

Dumb question, I know. But how much do you tip on a trial? I've paid a $100 deposit which covers my trial. It's a duo of hair and makeup, so I'll be doing both at the same time in a couple...

Miss to mrs got me thinking... Deep v back with big boobs?
L + A in Wedding Attire, on December 12, 2014 at 11:20 AM

Ive been tossing around the idea of lowering the back into a v as well... But DDD's are preventing me from committing. Anyone with big tatas done this before successfully?? Ps I'm on mobile so I can't...

These were the one thing I was most excited about for our wedding, and I finally received the first draft of proofs for them, they're AMAZING! I had to show them off because I'm so stoked about them!...

This stupid venue change is going to be the death of me, FML.
L + A in Etiquette and Advice, on November 14, 2014 at 6:03 PM

Ugh. The place we looked at on Tuesday was not what it was cracked up to be. We have to do the dinner outside under the tent, and if it's raining, people have to walk out in the rain to go to the...
