Experiences with Stillwhite?
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on August 14, 2019 at 6:26 PM

Just wondering everyone's experiences with StillWhite.com, whether selling or buying. I bought a dress I didn't love and I'm trying to sell it on both preownedweddingdresses.com and stillwhite.com...

Honeymoon in the us
Marissa in Honeymoon, on August 30, 2019 at 12:33 PM

Where are some of your honeymoon spots in the US? I really want to go somewhere with a beach... already been to FL and it was nice, but it was a family vacation and I want somewhere we haven't been. I...

Am i on track?
Marissa in Planning, on August 22, 2019 at 8:13 AM

Can anyone tell me what to do at this point or if I’m on track... I don’t really find the timeline useful on here because we aren’t doing all the steps on it (for example, not having transportation)....

Guest list woes
Marissa in Planning, on August 18, 2019 at 12:07 AM

I'm trying REALLY HARD to keep the guest list at 100 or less but we both have a lot of family and friends. Please let me know your strategies for cutting people. P.S., I know not everyone will show up...

Videography struggle
Marissa in Planning, on August 16, 2019 at 8:42 PM

So at first I didn’t care about videography at all. I was fine with having only a photographer. But after watching wedding videos on YouTube and seeing some of my friends videos, my mind has changed....

Flower alternatives
Marissa in Style and Décor, on August 10, 2019 at 1:59 PM

I don’t have a budget for flowers really. I’m not a huge flower person and I can’t stomach spending hundreds to thousands on them. I only want my bouquet to be real and I’m willing to use...

One year to go!!! Where are you?
Marissa in Planning, on July 24, 2019 at 11:14 PM

Celebrated our 5 year anniversary today which luckily lined up with family vacation in Daytona Beach. We had the day to ourselves to just hang out, shop, and go to a nice restaurant. Wanted a picnic...

Bridesmaid proposal
Marissa in Planning, on July 15, 2019 at 1:45 PM

I’m pretty sure I’ve posted this already but I can find it... so what did you do for your bridesmaids? Mine already know they’re involved but I still want to do something a little special for them.

Custom ring- Eeeep! 😁
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on July 16, 2019 at 11:19 AM

Just got some design photos back from the jeweler of what my ring will look like... so exciting. And by the way, this was my fh’s idea to upgrade. My original engagement ring was just a thin white...

Keeping Track of Expenses?
Marissa in Planning, on July 14, 2019 at 3:25 PM

What do you ladies use to keep track of your expenses (completed and ongoing)? I have a sort of chart on Google docs where I keep detailed track of things, but I was wondering if there's something...

Dress buying scam?
Marissa in Wedding Attire, on July 13, 2019 at 9:21 AM

Hey all, this is probably going to sound kind of odd. So I bought my first wedding dress but found another and I’m trying to sell the first one just to get rid of it. I’ve slashed the price...

Wedding on a Budget!
Marissa in Planning, on July 12, 2019 at 3:45 PM

I think we can all agree that we want our wedding day to be as special as possible. But that doesn’t mean it has to cost an arm and a leg. Curious as to where you all did(or are going to) cut corners,...

Okay so please don’t shame me... but what is the point of a bridal shower? I’m not meaning to come off as crass, I’m just genuinely curious. Im pretty young so none of my other friends have gotten...

Food/alcohol costs
Marissa in Wedding Reception, on July 1, 2019 at 4:16 PM

If you’re comfortable sharing, how much did you spend on food/alcohol? We are having around 100 guests and wanting to do a buffet and cash bar to keep the costs down. But gosh, it can get pricey...
