NWR: 2 weeks notice dilemma
Maria in Etiquette and Advice, on June 1, 2017 at 10:01 AM

I work at a great place that really has a positive tight knit community. I've never seen anything like this in other jobs. However, it's time for me to move on. My work contract here is during the...

What sacrifices have you made to save for your wedding?
Maria in Planning, on May 29, 2017 at 1:28 PM

Sacrifices could be a strong word. Comic Con is in Philly next week and I was so close to buying some tickets and photo ops with some of the cast members of Boy Meets World and Riverdale. I decided...

Etsy newbie
Maria in Style and Décor, on May 25, 2017 at 9:26 PM

I'm a creature of habit. It's hard for me to try new things. It took me longer than I'm proud of to start ordering things on amazon. I've heard a lot about etsy and I'm ready to take the plunge! I'm...

Maria in Honeymoon, on May 21, 2017 at 7:30 PM

I'm really struggling with our honeymoon research. Every other aspect of wedding planning I've been able to research my options and feel confident that I've made an informed decision when I book. I've...

Updated: Did anyone marry a Jew in a Catholic ceremony?
Maria in Planning, on May 16, 2017 at 6:15 PM

I grew up Catholic and he grew up Jewish. We're both firm believers in God but we're pretty relaxed about the details. The opportunity has come up to have our ceremony in the Church across the street...

How long did it take you to find the dress?
Maria in Wedding Attire, on May 8, 2017 at 7:22 PM

Did you find it at the first shop you visited or did it take months? My mother and 2 aunts are flying in to shop with me and I'm so excited about it. However, I'm worried I might not find it when...

DW: kids and save the dates
Maria in Etiquette and Advice, on May 17, 2017 at 6:09 PM

We're having a DW in PR but it's in my hometown so we're not having our nearest and dearest in a far away location. We're inviting 120 guests which include a lot of my local family. However, FH's...

KWR: If you're a CW Flash fan
Maria in Community Conversations, on May 16, 2017 at 9:12 PM

SPOILERS What a tragic ending!!! I'm shaken. I think it's a good move for the show but I'm heartbroken. Iris saying her wedding vows really tore me up.

Fighting with mom about wedding.
Maria in Planning, on May 14, 2017 at 1:24 PM

My mother INSISTS that all wedding planners get commission/kickbacks from the vendors they recommend. I ask her how she knows this and she says it's common practice and she just knows. I'm telling her...

NWR: What are your mother's day plans?
Maria in Married Life, on May 13, 2017 at 9:14 PM

My cousin had a baby last month and I plan on visiting her. My mom is too far away from me but I sent her a card and will have a nice talk over the phone. In my hometown we usually go to my...

Maria in Fitness and Health, on May 7, 2017 at 12:19 PM

I have lost 18lbs... Yay!!! I'm so happy I've found a routine that is working for me because before this I was going through a long and terrifying period where I couldn't even stop the weight gain. I...

Waiting to pick your bridal party
Maria in Etiquette and Advice, on May 5, 2017 at 6:13 PM

I know a lot of us can't wait to ask our loved ones to be in our bridal party. I was originally opting for no bridal party which is the only reason I didn't jump the gun. WW taught me to wait and...

Any updo experts out there?
Maria in Wedding Attire, on April 29, 2017 at 5:01 PM

A few weeks ago I went to a wedding and had an updo done. It wasn't exactly a trial since the hairdresser is very far away from my wedding location but more so a trial for how I feel wearing an updo...

NWR: anybody have crohns or ibd?
Maria in Fitness and Health, on April 28, 2017 at 6:23 PM

I have crohns and my doctor officially declared that I'm no longer in remission. At first we were trying to be ahead of the game. He did a routine lab to see if I developed antibodies to my current...

Thank you note for bridesmaid
Maria in Community Conversations, on April 26, 2017 at 4:36 PM

I just received a thank you note for being a bridesmaid in a wedding recently. I just wanted to share because it's brightened my day. I had no idea they would personalize them. They sent it in a...

Can we have a chuppah in this space?
Maria in Style and Décor, on April 16, 2017 at 10:49 PM

This is the room where we'll have our ceremony! Can we fit a chuppah in here? I've seen plenty indoors. We definitely need a simple one. I'm paranoid it will look bad and we'll need to do the ceremony...

Judging a vendor by their website
Maria in Planning, on April 15, 2017 at 2:43 PM

I'm on the hunt for my next vendor: wedding planner. Depending on the price I'll book a partial plan, but I definitely need a DOC at least. I have phone meetings with 3 next week. The vendor tab is...

Are the engagement pictures worth it?
Maria in Planning, on April 14, 2017 at 2:14 PM

Wedding is June 2018 in Puerto Rico. We can't travel there until December 2017. At that point engagement pictures would be a bit late, particularly for Save the Dates. I have ideas for a STD without...

NWR End of friendship
Maria in Etiquette and Advice, on April 13, 2017 at 10:38 PM

Some friendships end with a huge fight. But some just end because of time and/or distance. This happens naturally but sometimes you can find yourself in a friendship that no longer makes sense. You're...

Affordable videographer
Maria in Planning, on April 13, 2017 at 9:53 AM

It really is hard to cut corners with wedding planning. I feel like everything's important and I don't want to skimp on. You want a really good dj/band to set the tone, officiant to make the ceremony...
