What is the etiquette behind opening gifts before the wedding? I received a package from Macy's yesterday and I assumed it was a wedding gift. My mom said I should go ahead and open it. I felt like I...
I sent out my invites on Friday and I got 8 RSVP's back today! All yes! Yay! It's fun to read the notes people write. I'm going to be running to the mail box every day now.
Yeah so I was driving home the other day and the transmission went out in my car. I can afford to have it fixed, but just wasn't part of my budget lol. Argh! For the moment, we're just going to put in...
In the world of weddings where each bride imagines her perfect day and pulling off all of her plans flawlessly finally becomes real... It is not really reality in the days and months prior! There are...
I love, love, love how my invites turned out. They are custom, but I was able to save some money by doing the assembly myself. Credits go to: A Milestone Paper Company. Hope the pics turned out ok -...
I am going to be addressing my own invitations. I have fairly decent handwriting, but I've not done a lot of calligraphy. I thought I would try to write in calligraphy (practice a few times), but even...
I know this should be so easy, but I am having a hard time deciding on a first dance song. Some of the songs that I like "From this Moment On" "That's All" etc. are a little too cliche for FH. Now I...
I am wondering what amount is acceptable for wedding party gifts... I am throwing a brunch the day before the wedding for all the women in the wedding (6 bridesmaids, 2 personal attendants, 4...
I have 6 bridesmaids, 2 flower girls, 2 personal attendants, and 4 usherettes. When I filled in for my friend's wedding as a personal attendant, she didn't give me a gift (and I didn't expect it) but...
I want to throw a "bridesmaid luncheon" for my bridesmaids the day before the wedding, but I also have 2 personal attendants and 4 usherettes that I would like to include as well. I also feel like I...
I haven't officially sent out my invites, so I have no idea of who is really going to RSVP, but I did send out my STD's in February. Since then, I have heard from people that I never expected to come...
I have recently started to do walking/running/walking/running circuit as a way to lose weight for the wedding... I also am mixing it up every other day with a work out video to build strength in my...
In my circle of friends we were expected to pay for our own hair/make up for each other's weddings. If it was an out of town wedding, the bride paid for my hair usually. Then I went to my friend...
I hired someone else to make my wedding invites and she sent me the photos last night - and they look so beautiful! I cannot wait to show them off! but suddenly I'm starting to feel a bit nervous......
I had originally picked out the song "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts for the F/D Dance, but my mom didn't care for that song for us. My dad and I are not really that close - so it seems awkward to pick a...
I know that it is partly determined by the caterer - but how many weeks before the wedding should people typically turn in their RSVP by? I need to give a due date to the lady making my invitations. I...
I suddenly feel like nothing is going *smoothly* anymore... One of my bridesmaids was supposed to get a size 8 for her dress - the salon ordered her an 18... My jewelry for the bridesmaids that I...
Got this idea from Martha Stewart - but added the extra touches. (The lady in charge at the reception site has been so good to me and she supplied me with the glass votives left over from another...
For whatever reason, this task has been a thorn in my side from the very beginning! (I originally enlisted a friend to help with this task because she is so good at finding the best deals, but that...
I apologize for using these discussions for a birth control question - but I just wondered if anyone else has had the same issue. I decided to start going on BC for the first time ever. My fiance and...
