Oh no he didn't!
Marissa in Planning, on May 28, 2017 at 11:14 PM

Hey all. So I plan on doing a father-daughter dance AND a mother-daughter dance. My FH is doing a mother-son dance. My fiancé picked the song Wind Beneath my Wings by Bette Midler. He just thought the...

Not so little things!
Marissa in Community Conversations, on May 17, 2017 at 11:56 PM

I did a mock centerpiece for my wedding and I'm excited! I love it! Those won't be the candles I'll be using, different wine glasses, and all the greenery on the flowers won't be there. Oh and I'm not...

Annoyed!!
Marissa in Planning, on April 5, 2017 at 3:47 PM

Before the wedding coordinator at my venue was fired and a new one was hired (I like the new one better), she had told me that 110 people can fit in the main ballroom and if I go over that she will...

Dj
Marissa in Planning, on September 28, 2016 at 7:04 PM

I currently spoke with a DJ who is a friend of my dad's and his price is $700. (Mentioned that in another post). I've never had to hire a DJ for anything which may be why I think that's...

Don't settle!
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on March 25, 2017 at 11:39 PM

When you find the right dress, you know. For me, I cried. I posted a week or so ago that I was buying a different dress than my first choice because it was a little over budget. I kept convincing...

I found my dress!.....again?
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on March 18, 2017 at 5:25 PM

So I thought I found my gown. (Gown #1) but I didn't buy it yet because I was waiting for my FMIL to come to town. This dress was the Disney Belle dress from Alfred Angelo. However after a 2 weeks, I...

Venue confusion
Marissa in Planning, on March 19, 2017 at 5:05 PM

So I was trying for 2 weeks to get a hold of my venue (specifically Monique in the wedding department) with no luck. Even before the 2 weeks she wasn't easy to get a hold of, but I paid my deposit...

Shopping alone?
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on March 16, 2017 at 3:48 PM

So I found the dress I love at Alfred Angelo, so I had cancelled my appointment at Davids Bridal even though I haven't bought my dress yet. I rescheduled my appointment because my FMIL wanted to see...

Repeat posts
Marissa in Community Conversations, on March 12, 2017 at 12:04 AM

I apologize for posting my dress post so many times. Something is up with the app. It will be stuck on the same screen showing it did not post so I hit submit a few times, then it finally showed it...

Photobooth
Marissa in Planning, on March 12, 2017 at 12:09 AM

So I can't afford an actual photobooth. I saw ideas of getting a cute backdrop, putting out a lot of cool props, and calling it a "selfie station" so people can take selfies there and post the pics...

1 year yesterday!
Marissa in Planning, on March 11, 2017 at 10:42 PM

Found my dress!!
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on March 11, 2017 at 8:28 PM

I can't believe I found my dress! I didn't plan on finding it so soon but I cried with this one and knew it was the one. I'm not planning on crazy dieting before my wedding but I will watch my weight...

Dress
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on March 5, 2017 at 5:13 PM

Hi everyone! I tried on a few wedding dresses and this was my favorite, but when I seen it on me in a picture, I felt it was not as flattering as it looked in the mirror when I had on. This one made...

Colors of the seasons
Marissa in Planning, on November 2, 2016 at 1:17 PM

Do my wedding colors have to go with the season my wedding is in? Does it look bad if it doesn't? I'm having a spring wedding, but I really love burgundy and white with maybe a hint of another color....

Cake tasting
Marissa in Planning, on October 20, 2016 at 1:40 AM

I haven't done any cake tasting yet because it's still early, but if I do cake tasting at a bakery, do I have to get my cake from there?

Plus size dresses
Marissa in Planning, on October 10, 2016 at 7:52 PM

Hi all, I want to start dress shopping in a few months and had a question. I live in Orange County and was wondering if anyone knew of any places that have good plus size sample dresses to try on. I...

Venue
Marissa in Planning, on October 10, 2016 at 7:27 PM

I narrowed my venue choices to 2 places for now. I get to tour them next week! What are some good questions to have prepared? I want to type up a list and bring it with me to fill in with answers. ...

Photobooth
Marissa in Community Conversations, on September 25, 2016 at 10:21 PM

Any thoughts on whether or not having a photobooth is worth it? I went to a wedding with one and it was fun, but what are everyone's thoughts on having one at their wedding?

Overwhelmed
Marissa in Planning, on September 21, 2016 at 1:26 PM

1. My MIL is trying to have her side of the family do pretty much everything ( not paying for it all), but my family wants to be involved. I appreciate help, but how do I tell her that they can't take...
