So I thought I had mother nature covered. It wasn't supposed to happen until the week after the honeymoon. But since the BC I was on was making me irregular (was on low-hormone when I needed regular,...

So I was talking to my mom about my frustrations regarding finding a venue that a) is in our budget, b) will fit about 100-115 people, and c) will allow us to bring in food catered from a restaurant...

FH and I went to the local animal shelter together today to decide between the two I liked from Saturday. We fell in love with the 2-year old calico. She is the sweetest thing ever. While we were...

FH and I ran our recycling errand yesterday and then he wanted to walk around Walmart, since we never go in just to look around lol. I thought it was weird but hey, it got us out of the house. So we...

FH just spent the last 30 minutes BEGGING me to go to the gym with him. Apparently he has a huge amount of excess energy. I, of course, refuse since I walk to class 3-4 times a week (2.5 miles total...

Ok so since FH has his heart SET on a gourmet pizza buffet, I am trying to find somewhere to have the ceremony and/or reception. Can't have the ceremony at the Chapel because there is NOWHERE in our...

Just figured up our finances, and from May-July I'll be able to book our photographer (50%), put a deposit on Etsy (50%), reserve rentals, buy our vases, my veil, headpiece, sand supplies, and...

Well I refuse to spend $40-$60 on a sand set so I have an idea for getting a jar. I'm going to get one of those large jar candles with the lid, burn the candle, and wash it! The sand set...

For a whopping $13. It is a summer dress at Walmart -- my sister is having a very casual wedding. She called me earlier telling me her other BM found a teal (her colors are teal and brown)...

As some of you remember, my very beloved cat Pixie died about a month ago. It has been very weird since. We have two other cats but I miss the companionship. Our oldest (now) is FH's and our youngest...

After looking at more jars than I care to admit and calculating the amount of sand need to fill each, I figured I should post the formular for those brides doing sand ceremonies so that you would know...

So after my previous thread regarding flip floping, I tell FH that I think I have decided that we should use the banquet hall like we originally planned. He was fine with it until I told him we...

It is extremely tough to do wedding planning on your own. FH pretty much gives no opinion at all, so I go through ideas on my own and then I flip flop back and forth between ideas. Lol it gets soooo...

Lol so this is about 2 completely different things. 1) I went by our local animal shelter and they have a TON of calicos. I stayed for close to thirty minutes going to the individual ones petting them...

Ok my centerpieces are going to consist of 12 stems of buttons similar to this (except blue and purple): in these alternating vases: I am having 8' banquet tables for the guest tables. I have listed...

So I was looking at the cost of renting all the supplies to do self-catering for the wedding. I figure with the rental cost plus the cost of food that it might be easier just to get it catered. Well I...

So I found some white ones that were $1.65 a piece on directfloral.com. I just happened to scroll down on the page and it had a list of items I might be interested in, and low and behold, there...

Ok, so I've contacted our ONLY rental company (haha) to see about rentals. They have very good prices on dinnerware ($.35 each for dinner plates, $.30 each for dessert plates, etc.). If...

As some of you know, we are doing the button bouquets and scattering buttons on the tables. RBK is also making me a button cake topper. I've been trying to find a cake with a button theme FOREVER! and...

Bud vases. We are doing button centerpieces, so we need a vase with a smaller opening. I don't want clear (or I wouldn't need help haha). I would prefer purple (not pastel) or blue (not pastel), but I...
