Wedding band
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on February 5, 2020 at 8:10 PM

What style of wedding band would look good with my ring? I want something unique but I have no ideas. Preferably anything on Etsy if you have photos!

Am i overreacting?
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on February 13, 2020 at 8:01 AM

The bridesmaids and I made plans to go to DB this weekend for them to get fitted and order their dresses. (We are 5 months from the wedding btw) We all basically planned this outing, which is 45 min-1...

To vest or not to vest...
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on January 25, 2020 at 12:57 PM

Switching gears from focusing on myself and the ladies of our wedding to focus on the fellas. The more I look around, the more I don’t like the look of a vest as part of their get-up. To me, it...

How far in advance do you contact/pick out your decorations if going through a rental company?

David’s Bridal Experiences?
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on June 18, 2019 at 12:56 PM

I hate to be the negative nelly as I’ve heard that David’s bridal can be a nightmare. But can some of you share experiences there, good or bad? I’ve got an appointment there this week and I want to be...

Who's having Italian food?!
Marissa in Wedding Reception, on December 16, 2019 at 2:27 PM

Hi everyone, I might regret this, but I'm seeking your opinion on the reception menu. We only have a choice of 5 preferred vendors and we have chosen a pretty well known, but local, Italian...

Save the dates
Marissa in Planning, on December 8, 2019 at 3:28 PM

Save the dates turned out pretty well I think! I underestimated how hard it would be to get everyone’s address. I’ve been working on addressing them for 2.5 hours now 😂

Wedding shoes came!
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on December 2, 2019 at 4:47 PM

Amongst a bunch of other packages from my Black Friday shopping spree... my shoes came! I’m obsessed. I’m glad I went with the cream color. Anyone else take advantage of the Keds Kate Spade Black...

My dress came in!
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on November 17, 2019 at 6:10 PM

Whew, it’s been a struggle finding a dress. But the one I always wanted finally came in. I love it! It’s a wonderfully creamy material called mikado and it even has pockets. Please disregard my black...

Registry
Marissa in Registry, on November 27, 2019 at 12:48 AM

Just wondering when y’all began creating your registries. The checklist is telling me to do it now but I’m still 8 months out so I’m hesitant to gather a bunch of stuff that may be discontinued or...

Stress about expenses...
Marissa in Planning, on November 25, 2019 at 12:34 AM

We’ve all been here. I don’t know why it’s taken me this long to stress about how much everything costs. I’ve already cut the guest list as much as I think I can and I’m soon going to conference with...

Should i invite the “new guy”?
Marissa in Planning, on November 18, 2019 at 10:24 PM

I’ve worked at my job a long time. I love all my coworkers (I only work with 7 other people). I already finalized my guest list and am inviting all of them. One of the girls quit. She was replaced...

Etsy invites

Who’s used Etsy for their invitations? Did you use a template and print your own or order prints? Pics appreciated!

Hair & Makeup Trials
Marissa in Hair and Makeup, on November 11, 2019 at 7:40 PM

Hey all, when did you schedule your trials? I already know who I'm going to book. The checklist I'm following says to book my trials this month, but that seems really early to me since I'm 8 months...

Printing Experiences
Marissa in Planning, on November 8, 2019 at 10:20 AM

Where did you have things printed: Staples, UPS, FedEx, Walmart, Walgreens, etc.? I found it's cheaper to print my own invitations and programs for the style I want. Of course, I want good quality,...

Std/invites Timeline?
Marissa in Planning, on November 6, 2019 at 9:03 AM

Hey all, I was curious about when you're sending out STD/invites and what is considered too early. My wedding is about 8 months away. But I recently got a coupon for 50% off on Shutterfly which...

Dress too poofy?
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on October 30, 2019 at 7:56 AM

I love my dress on the top. I never saw myself as a ball gown girl (it’s not really ball gown, somewhere between ball gown and A-line). Last night I tried it on just to make sure it still fits and I’m...

Not on the diamond train..
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on October 26, 2019 at 4:30 PM

So my engagement ring no longer fits and we discovered it’s not resizable. Now I have to get a new ring. But I never really realized how expensive diamonds are. And after paying over $1000 for...
