FH is finally willing to talk nitty-gritty wedding details (now that we are down to 101 days....) and we are in discussions about what makes a good groomsmen gift. Everyone involved int he wedding is...
This is my second accident on the same road in 6 months. I obviously need to find a new route to work.... I'm fine and the deer just jumped away. My car, however, has a deer-sized dent in its hood and...
My work friends are putting together an after work party celebrating "the end of Mary's spinsterhood." The invite says "Join us for appetizers, friends and fun." Does it also need to say "cash bar" or...
I have read about hosting a bridal luncheon for the women involved in my wedding, but need some help with the logistics. I was planning to invite my mother, my FMIL, my MOH and my BM. Should I also...
Has anyone done this? What should I include (or not include)?
I got the idea of inviting famous people to our wedding, mostly to have a souvenir from their response card, from one of the invitation artists we talked with. We have to pay for 100 invites anyway...
I used my first day of spring break to go dress shopping (for our honeymoon, my showers, and my bachlorette party). I feel really successful having found 4 dresses for less than $60 total!...
My FMIL just emailed me, saying that she was willing to buy the hostess gifts for my shower as she did it for her daughter. That seems nice and I was just going to thank her for the offer, since I...
I have this fabulous idea that I am going to make my own wedding purse, mostly as a card bag, but I'd prefer it not be the drawstring type, from the scraps of my wedding dress. (They cut off the...
I went to check on my registries today (because I'm nebbie and like to know what people bought). My Bloomingdale's registry had disappeared! I called and they had no record of it. FH and I got in the...
I'm going to be going my bridesmaids purses with their wedding day jewelry in them. What do you think of these as gifts for my readers. (One loves music and the 80's, one loves Paris, and one had a...
I am thrilled to have finally completed my collection of jars for the candy buffet. I have been buying them one at a time with Michael's coupons and last week's 50% off ones helped me complete my...
Why is it that when things arrive in the mail, even when they aren't actually for me, I feel like it's Christmas? This week all of the pieces of my gifts for my BM's arrived. Hooray! I had special...
I just got a chain email about this, so this is my way of passing it on... July this year has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays, and 5 Sundays. It happens only once every 823 years! (In theory, it's called...
My FMIL just asked me for the guest list for my shower. (She's already inviting her 30 friends and associates who are invited to our wedding....) I'm wondering if it's okay to invite people to both...
We're going to make the invitations for our "extra events" (RD, party for OOT, day after brunch) ourselves. Our actual wedding invitations are letterpress and formal. Which of these do you prefer to...
I'm sure there are people that I am going to want to be able to send these to, but I wouldn't dare... Hope everyone enjoys the laugh.
I had my first fitting yesterday and took some pictures of myself in my dress. I was so happy to put it on and I felt so bride-like. (I feel like I am doing a lot of planning and organizing and not...
What are you all doing today/tonight?
I'm not able to invite all of my work friends to our wedding, but they have been hearing about the planning (not to mention the 8 years of dating horror stories that came before I met FH) so I would...
