We'll just about 2 months to go. This morning I was looking at my invite and I thought to myself " really pretty I really like that". THEN I started thinking about everything else. Why does it feel...
I'm a straight forward drinker; whiskey for the most part. or rum. But someone showed me a picture of a purple-y blue drink that looked almost neon and now I can't remember the name of the...
I am second thinking our menu. It's buffet. We already have Ziti and Fettuccine. FH choices and not up for discussion. We had planned on mashed potato bar because of all the pasta...was wanting mac n...
I'm trying to figure out my "seating of the honored" etc. Our groomsmen will double as ushers. MY FH's DIL will be sat in the 1st row... her husband/FHs son is a groomsman... should he seat her, or...
I had an old boyfriend that had absolutely ZERO interest in any of my hobbies and when I asked to learn/participate in his, he was unwilling to share. That was the beginning of the end to THAT one! My...
I have two questions; 1) Is it expected/common to send invitations to vendors? Presumably, they know when/where/etc because they are contracted. But folks like Officiant, etc... do they get an...
FH and I can't agree on "getaway" transportation. He wants to walk to our hotel (which, granted, is a block away) which could probably work any other time except for the Capitol Hill Block party going...
*sigh* After talking with my FH last night; we decided the sweetheart table was a great idea (thank you to those who helped with that decision) So, now I'm trying to figure out a good place to put the...
Looking for new inspiration for head table configuration. We had it all planned out; THEN I was re-reading our contract the other evening, and it states "no food/drink on carpeted stage". I know that...
I hired a DoC... I think that it will be the best money spent so far; but besides what is called out in her contract, what are 'typical' DoC duties? I understand that she will be the go-to-gal for all...
FH and I have been taking dance lessons...last night I asked our instructor if he's heard feedback from brides on dancing in their gowns. His suggestion, and what he's heard from brides, is "costume...
This morning I awoke to a text message that read "100 days baby...!!" Something so small that made me smile. He's watching the clock too! What does your SO do that brings an "awwww"???!
FH Irish'ness is showing in some of the traditions we are honoring. Namely bells. We have bells that we are giving our guests to ring at the end of the ceremony. We had considered using them as...
So much going on, I just need a break to reflect on all the goodness in my life. I'm so thankful for FH and my beautiful daughters. This pic was taken on my 55th bday when I crossed skydiving off my...
I am weary over the "honeyfund" debate. The only argument I've heard is that it's "tacky". Why? Why register anywhere at all? What are the reasons and motivations for using any gift registry? This...
A post got me thinking just now... I won't be seeing my man until the day of; and I think I want to have dinner with my sisters (who are in from out of town) then maybe get a massage and just reflect...
That happened today. I delivered my envelopes to the calligrapher for addressing. Of all the 'stuff' that I've planned, and have set up, etc. THIS was the moment that made me stop in my tracks and say...
Heh. My wedding will be so far from dry its ree-dicolus. I AM, though, contemplating adding 'bitch water' (don't get your panties in a bunch... its a term of endearment, really). Mikes Hard Lemonade,...
I know folks have an opinion on programs; money sink that just get left in trash to memorable keepsake of the blessed day and everywhere in between. I get that - I haven't made up my mind if I am...
