Dress regret? I need brutal honesty.
Long Distance Bride in Wedding Attire, on June 15, 2017 at 8:25 PM

Hi guys. Long story short, I re-made my mom's wedding dress into something a bit more modern. I loved it at one point, but I think spending so much time altering it has made me start to hate it. I'm...

Wedding jewelry help!
Long Distance Bride in Wedding Attire, on May 6, 2017 at 8:58 PM

Does this pendant look ok if it were put onto the pearls? My mom hates it, and I'm just making sure it looks ok! Experiencing some self-doubt here!

I'm having a tough time figuring out what kind of necklace will go well with my dress and earrings. The earrings are my great grandma's, and are opals. I can't really afford an opal necklace so I'm...

Long Distance Bride in Wedding Attire, on April 9, 2017 at 4:13 PM

Guys... my FH forgot to invite a groomsman.
Long Distance Bride in Community Conversations, on March 25, 2017 at 8:22 AM

I am cracking up over this. I texted one of my bridesmaids, whose husband was intended to be a groomsman. When I told her what he should be wearing, she was so confused! The wedding is only 3 months...

We don't want gifts. How do we politely tell guests that their presence is enough?
Long Distance Bride in Etiquette and Advice, on January 6, 2017 at 5:42 PM

Hi again! FH and I are having a destination(ish) wedding- 99% of people are going to have to buy plane tickets and hotel rooms. After spending all that money, we don't want to burden people with...
