Send off ideas? Strict venue
Mandi in Planning, on April 7, 2019 at 5:14 PM

My venue is in a genuine antique barn and doesn't allow anything to be tossed and no flanes/sparklers, not even candles. I'm having a hard time thinking of send off ideas. I'm not a fan of the ribbon...

Too blessed to stress?!?
Mandi in Planning, on March 26, 2019 at 11:37 PM

I see so many people here with uninterested FHs and future in laws or bridesmaid drama. My FMIL and FFIL are incredible and generous and I fall more in love with my FH every step if planning. My...

I want to surprise FH with a song that he loves (Faithfully -Journey) as I walk down the aisle. Im secretly hoping it'll force him to cry lol! My issue here is that I'm not sure how that works...

Who else has a special/meaningful must-have venue?
Mandi in Planning, on February 25, 2019 at 3:53 AM

We knew our ranch venue before we got engaged! We had stayed at the cabins there several times and it has become such a special place for us, holding so many lovely memories. As soon as we stumbled...

Tree planting ceremony
Mandi in Wedding Ceremony, on February 23, 2019 at 12:52 AM

I'm looking the idea of a tree planting ceremony more and more. My only issue is I have no clue what type of tree it will be. We have a house and a yard but will probably not be here forever so I'd...

Bridesmaid has issues with coworkers
Mandi in Etiquette and Advice, on February 21, 2019 at 11:47 PM

I have an ex coworker that I am still close with. She left the company on shaky terms, not bad, but not great. Since then shes "liked" some negative reviews and some of my coworkers have seen them and...

Just got this photo of my custom hoop bouquets! I asked her for a wildflower vibe with some natural dried accents. This is what my BMs will be carrying, I'll have a huge cascading bouquet with the...

Birdcage veil with hair down??
Mandi in Wedding Attire, on February 11, 2019 at 2:05 AM

I've said yes to the dress! Pictures attached! Now I'm having this veil situation. I have expressed, and FH agrees, with the fact that a traditional veil is not happening. The awkward roots of it...

"tattoo effect" dresses
Mandi in Wedding Attire, on January 28, 2019 at 1:42 AM

I really love the style of dress that has VERY thin nude sheer fabric (not just regular illusion sheer) with appliques that give the appearance of being glued or tattooed onto bare skin. I have tried...

Need help finding the perfect dress
Mandi in Wedding Attire, on January 13, 2019 at 2:28 PM

Alright, here's the deal. I'm getting married on a ranch and I'm wearing western style (not cowboy) heeled boots with my dress. I want them to peek out, so I want a high-low dress but most of the...

Should i ask my Bms dates to dress a certain way?
Mandi in Etiquette and Advice, on January 13, 2019 at 2:37 PM

I have 7 BMs and my FH doesn't want any GMs. A kind soul on WW suggested I have my BMs be walked down the aisle by their SOs and then have all of them sit so it doesn't look off balance. Most of them...

Mandi in Etiquette and Advice, on December 22, 2018 at 11:08 PM

Okay so FH and I have been talking about the wedding party. I have already asked my BMs since I have a very close defined group and the choices were clear. He has been going back and forth about his...

Tables names and centerpieces
Mandi in Style and Décor, on October 15, 2018 at 2:21 PM

So after finally admitting defeat and giving into the idea of assigning tables (Ugh!) I have decided I want to at least do something fun with it. Originally our centerpieces were going to involve wine...

How to announce "ranch" attire?
Mandi in Etiquette and Advice, on October 4, 2018 at 12:39 AM

The wedding itself is on a ranch and the whole wedding party will be wearing boots. There is a short walk from the ceremony to the reception barn that is unpaved. I want to put something on our...

Bridesmaid attire. Who pays for what? Is this an appropriate way to ask them to choose?
Mandi in Etiquette and Advice, on September 30, 2018 at 7:51 PM

I'm getting married in October 2019 on a cliff overlooking a Texas ranch, the reception is on the same lot in a barn. The weather will still be warm in Texas around that time of year. My FH and I are...

Hashtag incorporating venue location?
Mandi in Community Conversations, on September 30, 2018 at 10:45 PM

Alright, so we're getting married on a very scenic ranch. It'll be themed accordingly, rustic and natural. The ceremony is on a cliff but we've chosen to place focus on the barn that we'll have our...

Hello, Date Twins!! When FH and I settled our date, we did a Wikipedia search that night to see if anything of relevance has happened on October 5th. Among some other things, we found that October 5,...
