Has anyone removed tables after dinner for dancing?
Lola in Wedding Reception, on April 9, 2019 at 11:07 AM

Our reception will be about 55-60 people, and the venue itself is a bit on the smaller side. The room is not really big enough to accommodate a dance floor and a dj. However, the event coordinator of...

Lola in Fitness and Health, on January 25, 2019 at 10:12 AM

I just signed up via a facebook promotion that the super popular Sweat app is giving 3 months away for $1. Usually it is one free week and then I think $20 a month after that. So if...

Okay, so first of all I apologize because the pictures I have are grainy, my dress hasn't been altered yet, and the close up of my face is a BAD picture. But I need help with jewelry. My mom doesn't...

Mini-honeymoon Suggestions?
Lola in Honeymoon, on January 21, 2019 at 11:27 AM

My FH and I live in New Orleans, and since we are paying for the wedding ourselves we can only really afford to have a honeymoon that lasts about 3-4 nights. We are considering Destin, Florida, or...

We sent out our Save the Dates a couple weeks ago, and my step-mom messaged me last night asking me if her brother and sister were invited to the wedding as they did not get there's. My fiance and I...

Champagne shoes with silver jewelry?
Lola in Wedding Attire, on October 19, 2018 at 5:47 PM

I ordered these shoes and I LOVE them, but I am afraid they will not match with the jewelry I picked out. I think the champagne is not exactly gold, but close enough to gold that it might be a faux...

Courthouse wedding before official wedding
Lola in Etiquette and Advice, on July 26, 2018 at 4:28 PM

My FH really wants us to get "married" at the courthouse asap, so that I can be on his insurance and for tax purposes. He doesn't want to tell anyone, he doesn't want us to wear wedding rings, he...

Hotel Block
Lola in Planning, on July 16, 2018 at 4:30 PM

Kids at the wedding
Lola in Etiquette and Advice, on June 3, 2018 at 4:52 PM

We are having a very small wedding, around 65 people. The venue says it can hold up to 80, but that would mean basically that the entire room is filled end to end with tables, so there wouldn't be a...
