Local Facebook Group?
MichelleMarie in Arizona Planning, on July 4, 2018 at 6:13 PM

Wedding Stuff Hi Ladies, I was married in April of 2016 and we had a local WW FB group to coordinate events and post things for sale. That group seems to be inactive. I have all my decor and...

Pre-marital counseling/books?
MichelleMarie in Planning, on December 7, 2015 at 3:01 AM

FH and I agreed when we got engaged that pre-marital counseling wouldn't be a bad idea since it had helped a few of our friends get through some rough patches. Then I found some books/workbooks online...

What to do with the dress after the wedding
MichelleMarie in Wedding Attire, on June 19, 2016 at 8:47 PM

Traveler's checks and cash exchange question
MichelleMarie in Honeymoon, on April 25, 2016 at 1:00 PM

Is there any reason to get traveler's checks anymore to go to Europe since it's so easy to use credit cards? I haven't been to Europe in 9 years, and I remember we got them, but I don't remember using...

MichelleMarie in Community Conversations, on April 23, 2016 at 12:31 PM

I just have to share our excitement over our bobble head cake topper! We aren't doing a traditional tiered cake since our venue is providing dessert. So we're doing a small fun cake (more like a...

MichelleMarie in Do It Yourself, on January 5, 2016 at 7:42 PM

My (wonderful) day-of coordinators will be decorating my pergola with fabric and chandeliers, but I need to supply the fabric. I know zero about fabric. What kind should I order? I don't want to spend...

McCormick Scottsdale (Millenium)
MichelleMarie in Wedding Attire, on October 29, 2015 at 1:14 AM

Has anyone been to or stayed at this resort recently? For some reason it's super cheap the weekend of my wedding. The flexible rate is $144, and the next cheapest we found was the Hilton at...

We found a venue!
MichelleMarie in Planning, on October 17, 2015 at 2:00 PM

And the winner is....the Casablanca Lounge in Scottsdale! It's a nightclub after 9pm, but we're buying it out from 4-9. The owner is a chef, and he said he'd make us anything we want to fit our...

MichelleMarie in Planning, on October 13, 2015 at 4:42 PM

I snapped at my mother today
MichelleMarie in Planning, on October 12, 2015 at 11:06 PM

Since the day after we got engaged, every time I talk to my mom and fill her in on plans, she tells me what we want to do is too expensive or that we're spending too much. I am asking for ZERO money...

MichelleMarie in Planning, on September 27, 2015 at 6:51 PM

We're looking for a ceremony location (preferably in Scottsdale or surrounding areas) for 35-40 people. This is on a Thursday evening, and then we're just going to do dinner afterward at a restaurant....
