I was asked to be in a friend's wedding as a bridesmaid. She allowed us to pick our own dresses, but the color had to be champagne. It's a rustic/western style wedding, so the girls will all be...

Read the rest before you answer, because I'm using the term reception dress loosely. It's not white/ivory, and it's not even wedding-y. It comes to about mid-thigh, is form fitting, and is black on...

I went to my final dress fitting last night and all of the alterations look fine, but it's too tighto n top. It zips, but it took the seamstress and my mom to zip it. It's strapless, so I had it taken...

I have to wear a full slip with my wedding dress with plenty of layers. I was told by the bridal shop to hang it "inside out and upside down" with the type of hanger that pants come on with the two...

So, we have three groomsmen and three bridesmaids. Our best man was supposed to stand with the FH the entire time, so my maid of honor was going to walk alone and then the other four would walk in...

I’m getting married in May. This is the color of my bridesmaids’ dresses: http://davidsbridal.ugc.bazaarvoice.com/7294-en_us/235105/photo.jpg (Clover) The dresses were originally supposed to be pink,...

We're doing a champagne toast (actually sparkling wine), and an open bar with beer and wine on a Sunday evening from 5:00-8:00 (maybe even 9:00, but most likely 8:00). Our final headcount is 72...

I had my bridal shower today. 25 guests were invited, 17 RSVPed, and 7 showed up. I was so embarrassed. I was on the verge of tears the entire time. It was awful....I left as soon as it ended and...

So I'm a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding this Friday and I'm getting an airbrush tan done tomorrow (the kind done by a person, not a machine) at a place that has a great reputation. I was planning on...

I'll be in my wedding dress during the majority of the reception, but before we leave I'll be changing into a different dress. However, I don't want this dress to be too "wedding-y" because I'd like...

Ok, if you've seen a couple of my past posts, I'm clueless about this stuff. My fiance and I don't really drink, so I need all the help I can get. We're having about 80 guests, 60 of which are of...

I thought I covered all of my bases with our playlist, but the coordinator at our venue caught me - I missed the exit song! She said some people do songs related to their honeymoon destination (we're...

Ok, so my fiance's dad has been in and out of his life since he and his mother got divorced. They speak on holidays over the phone and that's about it, even though he lives about 10 minutes away from...

First of all, my fiance and I simply don't drink wine. But instead of dropping a ridiculous amount of money to have hard liquor at our wedding, we're just having beer and wine. In order to pick a good...

Tuesday, Thursday, Friday - One mile power walking on treadmill in the morning (about 20 minutes) Monday thru Friday - One mile walking outside (throughout day, I park far away from campus) - Toning...

My fiance is about 5'9" and 150lbs (slim) and I'm about 5'5" and 130lbs (not so slim). My heels for the wedding are about 4". I tried them on and stood next to him in his sneakers and he was still a...

Here are the things I'll be doing before the wedding day: 1.) Nails/Toenails 2.) Waxing of legs, underarms 3.) Sugar waxing, full Brazilian 4.) Spray tanning 5.) Hair cut and highlights **How soon...

We are having an open bar at our wedding with beer, wine, and champagne. We are inviting 90 guests, only 60 of which are old enough to drink. We're only providing enough champagne for everything to...

Ok, so our wedding is May 6th and I created and ordered our invitations online a couple of months ago. I'd never planned a wedding before, and when I read that invitations should be sent out 8 weeks...
