Just ordered groom a linen suit from Island Importer: https://www.islandimporter.com/custom-linen-monaco-suit.html (this is a photo of the whole suit, but we were able to buy off the shelf pieces to...
We did it, and it went great! I'm just attaching one photo, not enough time to post a bunch. I just wanted to share my own lessons learned about the process of planning a wedding. For those who don't...
So today FH and I went to our wedding venue, which is sort of a private park, and spent a couple hours cleaning the bathroom. Yes, really. And we are still begging the venue management for the cell...
Yes, we have a fall back location, and a plan for when and how we will call it for rain, if we have to, but it is of course not our first choice. Accuweather now provides forecasts as far as a month...
I'm an older bride (2nd marriage). FH and I are paying for everything but the rehearsal dinner ourselves. I am doing nearly all the work and planning. We are having no attendants, no best man, no MOH....
Everyone getting projects going? Shopping for the raw materials even for simple decorating projects ate my weekend. Bought all the cylinder vases for my centerpieces, ribbon, placemats, table numbers....
Not down the aisle, but to the reception, etc. Phone, id, lipstick, a little cash. I bought mine on Etsy last night, am so stoked to see it. Vintage, sparkly! Kindofa splurge, but my rationalization...
I am sitting in a meeting. There is a box of Dunkin' Donuts at the other end of the table. Arrrrgh. Not. Gonna. Eat. One. Overall am having great success with toning and fitness (2.5 inches less...
Http://www.myhomemystyle.com/enotes/2012/03/02/decorative-faux-stone-column/?utm_source=MyHomeMyStyleEnotes&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=5672 I want to make 2 that are each 3' tall and use them as...
If you are doing a test run of your makeup / hair, it's a 'TRIAL'. If you are putting on big clunky shoes to walk in the woods, that's done on a 'TRAIL'. I know many post from their phones, but you...
Here's my first attempt at a prototype of my centerpiece design
I'll be dropping them in the mail tomorrow a.m. Yes, I know, a little later than ideal, but hey, that's what Save The Dates are for, right? It ended up taking more time than I expected to get my...
I bought a pair on Etsy, but am not loving them (the setting looks cheap to me), and have now looked at so many that they all look terrible to me. I am not usually 'that kind' of shopper, but I need...
Ceremony location is a 50 minute drive from reception, in a bit of an out of the way place. Original plan: hire a bus to haul guests to location. Shopping for the bus has been a hassle, and the price...
So as a courtesy to my guests (and a stress reliever for me) I'm transporting my guests to and from the wedding site, which is about 1 hour from the reception and from the likely hotels. This way,...
In the course of planning our wedding, I have had so far three different vendors that I contacted either by phone or e-mail just completely flake on communication. They never returned my call or...
So, I've decided that I've reached the portion of wedding preparation where every single day, someone will ask me a question about the wedding. It will be a completely sensible and reasonable question...
I think I need to hire someone to coordinate logistics the day before and day of the wedding. However, I don't think I need a wedding planner per se. SMALL Wedding. Outdoor ceremony. 35 guests, family...
I read some great reviews of this vendor for groomsmen's clothing for beach weddings, but what I want to know is, has anyone on here ordered one of their custom suits?...
I saw a story online about the new LOVE stamps:...
