We're getting ready to taste test soon (YUM) and I was just wondering if anyone had gone the sheet cake route? I've heard of people doing a nice looking very small sort of top layer for bride and...

So I'm planning on getting my make-up done for my boudoir photo session and was thinking I'd use the salon at Ulta to get my make-up done beforehand, which is $30. But we just recently had a...

"WTF" Wedding Gifts
Melissa in Community Conversations, on April 6, 2015 at 4:40 PM

Ok, so I know that weddings are NOT about the gifts and that it's about having family and friends there to love and support you. But let's be honest, we all judge some of the gifts we've seen given...

Melissa in Community Conversations, on April 8, 2015 at 10:34 AM

Tip on Paying Things Off Close to the Wedding
Melissa in Etiquette and Advice, on April 1, 2015 at 9:40 AM

I wish someone had told me to buy all the little things earlier, like a gift for my officiant (since he won't accept payment), small gifts for the junior bridesmaids, a steamer for my veil, stuff for...

How many processional songs?
Melissa in Etiquette and Advice, on March 31, 2015 at 8:43 PM

Ok, I wanted to get y'alls input on this. FMIL just decide she does want to be seated before the bridal processional, which is fine. So we picked out a song for her to walk down the aisle and be...

Melissa in Etiquette and Advice, on March 16, 2015 at 6:51 PM

FH and I are working on our programs now and I'm trying to figure out how to word the "Ceremony" section for our civil ceremony. So many of them start with "Opening Prayer" or something like that, but...

Just need to vent- RSVPs
Melissa in Planning, on March 11, 2015 at 9:59 AM
