Sorry for another post, I'm starting my official wedding planning and I have tons of questions! What are some options for affordable invitations and STD's? I looked at Walmart and their stationary...

We printed our invites ourselves. We used those kits you can buy at Michael's. It came with invites, a pocket paper (best way I know how to describe it), and extra cards for RSVP's/details/whatever...

Venting because this is such a frustrating thing! FH's sister is 18, turning 19 in August. She just graduated high school (a little later than planned) and got her first job which is really exciting,...

We're getting our cake at Safeway as the quotes we got from local bakeries were way too expensive. My concern is, how are we going to cut the cake for the guests? I checked with our caterer to see if...

We have a good friend from church who is incredibly talented, and one night my mom and I were talking about the ceremony music and she suggested asking him to play piano for the processional music and...

My bridal party is ordering their dresses online and I asked them to order by the end of February to ensure they have plenty of time to exchange if needed. The last thing I want is for them or for me...

FH and I are on the hunt for a new counselor. We've been seeing one woman for our premarital counseling and we had originally planned on continuing to check in with her about once a month, but I...

So I was just looking at the picture of me in my dress when I went dress shopping in July. I remembered how I had the worst tan lines from my bathing suit straps. I tan really really easily and FH's...

I'm working on my checklist for everything I need done next year and I wanted clarification: are invites sent out 8 weeks before the wedding date or 8 weeks before the RSVP date?

Alright, so we have a church set up for 10/7/17 but originally we wanted one particular venue that I really love. FH got a new job and his parents actually offered to pay for the venue so we can book...

So we originally planned on having a cake and punch reception since our ceremony will start around 2 and the reception will end at 6. We're potentially going to book a venue instead of using our...

Has anyone ordered from latterdaybride.com? How did it go? I've been looking at bridesmaids dresses here and there and I found one that's exactly what I imagined and it's pretty inexpensive too! I...

So FH and I just passed our one year point and the countdown has officially begun!! I mean we were counting down before, but now that it's going under a year it's so exciting. But the other day, FH...

Okay, quick question. FH and I majorly cut our guest list. We had 120 and I told him if we kept our wedding that size we weren't having it because financially it's impossible. We planned to get to 30...

So I originally wanted two dresses. One for the ceremony, and one that was more comfortable for the reception. FH asked last night if I still wanted to do that. I love my dress but I know it's not...

Today is probably one of the worst days I've had. We have two cats that we got when I was about 8 years old (13 years ago) and one of them has been sick for about a month now. We took him into the vet...

So I've been trying to figure out what I want to do for catering. Originally we were thinking cake and punch reception because we'd like our ceremony to start around 1:30/2:00. Well now we officially...

So my dress came in a couple weeks after I ordered it at Davids Bridal and I tried it on before we took it home and it was way tighter!! I could barely breathe!! It was the same size but the manager...
