I have seen some sample toasts online and many are very conflicting. Some sites say not to specifically mention names but to just say "parents", "bridesmaids", etc. Other sites say to personalize the...

We are honeymooning in Cancun in August. We want to book excursions soon to ensure we have them reserved. I have heard that some services, taxis, and excursions are unsafe. Anyone know of the best way...

I am trying to fit a program template onto my already purchased Wilton DIY program fan kit. The programs are 5x7 but the printable space is more like 4x6 which is causing a problem. I am looking to...

Photo Slide Show Creator
MichiganBride in Community Conversations, on June 10, 2017 at 2:40 PM

Does anyone know of a good photo slide show creator that could be played during the wedding? It would need to be able to hold a lot of photos and preferably be free. Thank you so much in advance!

Beach themed centerpieces...?
MichiganBride in Style and Décor, on March 25, 2017 at 9:02 PM

I have glass chargers and tall vases but I don't know what to do with them yet. Our theme is beach themed, but it is on Lake Michigan, not the ocean so certain ideas don't fit. I'd love ideas!

What to wear under wedding dress
MichiganBride in Wedding Attire, on March 24, 2017 at 4:04 PM

My dress is a strapless ballgown with sweetheart neckline. I have no idea what to wear under it. I definitely want something for coverage and slimming. Ideas?
