How to survive a long engagement
#mattsmrs18 in Etiquette and Advice, on June 6, 2016 at 12:11 PM

So with 18 months still left to go the angst of waiting is getting really heavy. FH and I decided that logistically a long engagement made more sense, so a 23 month engagement it was. Now the venue is...

Is Amazon Registry good?
#mattsmrs18 in Planning, on January 29, 2017 at 5:40 PM

After a nightmare registering experience at Belk today, my FMIL suggested that we register on amazon along with a physical place like target. I'm not an online shopper usually, but Im willing to give...

I said yes to the dress!
#mattsmrs18 in Community Conversations, on December 22, 2016 at 6:24 PM

It's a Allure Bridal gown. I love the sleeves! I was going to get one with sleeves like this from Davids Bridal, but then a friend of mine wore it in her wedding. I guess that was just fate telling me...

Epic E-pics and other corny puns!
#mattsmrs18 in Community Conversations, on November 6, 2016 at 10:32 PM

Though there were some hiccups along the way (like forgetting all of my lipstick), I am amazed about my e-pics. These are just the sneak peeks so far, and I'm sitting on pins and needles for the rest....

Could this be the dress?
#mattsmrs18 in Wedding Attire, on October 5, 2016 at 6:44 PM

Went shopping a last week on a whim and I love this dress. It's the first dress I've ever put on but it was magical. The only issue is that my mom doesn't like it and wants me to explore other...

#mattsmrs18 in Planning, on September 20, 2016 at 3:51 PM

Man, it's been a while since I've posted. How are my fellow 2018 brides doing? I'm kind of in a slump. I have my venue and photographer, but it's too early to do anything else. What have you girls...

#mattsmrs18 in Community Conversations, on August 6, 2016 at 8:30 PM

Spoiler Alert So for those of you who have seen it what are your thoughts? Personally, I don't think it delivered the hype. While it wasn't bad, it just wasn't as spectacular as the advertising made...

People who did DIY invitations
#mattsmrs18 in Do It Yourself, on July 14, 2016 at 10:45 AM

How much did it cost to get the materials/print them off? FH wants to design our own invitations but I'm a little hesitant because I feel it may cost more than buying them from Wedding Paper Divas or...

#mattsmrs18 in Community Conversations, on July 9, 2016 at 12:18 AM

Mine is Animal Crossing or Harvest Moon (on the game cube). FH makes fun of me for playing "sissy" games but I really don't care. So what is your favorite video game?

KWR Funeral Home and Wedding Venue combo
#mattsmrs18 in Community Conversations, on July 5, 2016 at 7:21 PM

A historic home in my area is in a rezoning battle because they want to become a joint funeral home AND still be a wedding venue. Their reason behind it is "that is what everyone else is doing". I...
