Type 2 diabetes runs strongly in my family, so I've kind of been waiting for the day I was diagnosed. Well, the day has come. Right before the biggest candyfest of the year, too. Blarg.
First snow! Excuse me while I dance around outside!! Sry, just had to share.
So I stopped into a bridal shop today, fairly unexpectedly (long story), and in addition to a couple more wedding dresses, I tried on a couple of maid's dresses that would be suitable to marry in. As...
I just feel like finding out who's planning a Catholic wedding or a church wedding in another Christian denomination....
How long are all of your engagements? More specifically, how long did you work (or are your working) on your wedding? Every site and magazine I read gives to-dos for a year, but I'm finding that...
...that my brother, who was married overseas and will be home with his beautiful wife next year around my planned wedding date, did not have a wedding reception. They were married with an officiant...
Yesterday, I told FH that I would like to accomplish a few tasks having to do with my recovery before we got married, and I would like him to do the same. I said that once they were done, we'd set a...
Not for the wedding, necessarily (in my dreams), but one day. There is nowhere to hide in this one. No Spanx, precious little bra. This is the fashion inspiration for my swim fit bod....
I punch up "short hair" on wedding websites, and apparently that includes anything above the collarbone. Mine is short. Like SHORT. I've even included a pic of my lovely mug to gaze upon while you...
What do you think, ladies? These purple stand bowls http://www.save-on-crafts.com/pedestalplate.html filled with oranges. I've attached a pic of my reception venue. They're a smidge pricey, but I...
To honor your family and close friends? To be the official witness(es)? To help with the wedding? To look pretty in pictures? What made you choose the maids and men you have, and what made you choose...
Okay, so I know I said I found "the one" at David's, but I had already set the appointment at Gateway Bridal (www.latterdaybride.com), so I decided to keep it. I am SO glad I did. What a difference!!...
FH and I belong to the Cathedral parish, but we were looking around for a smaller church in which to get married because we'll only have about 35 people there (the guest list seems to grow every day,...
This fancy thing is a "cockade." It kind of reminds me of a fair ribbon. I found a tutorial on how to make them, and I think they would be *GREAT* for the Edwardian feel I want. They would also make...
The dress, that is... I tried this dress on once, and wasn't so enamoured with it, but when I put it on with this jacket, it just clicked. Trouble is, it's a clearance dress, and the jacket has...
I just love the Edwardian proto-flapper look of The Duchess of York, Elizabeth Bowes Lyon, AKA the Queen Mother, at her wedding. Rumor has it, her look inspired Padme Amidala's wedding duds. I'm...
And how many different kinds? Who has put a candy buffet together?
He just declared my 1920's proto-theme to be our "Bonnie and Clyde" wedding. We are eating big bowls of Lucky Charms and playing video games at home. Oh, how I love that man of mine.
Who has gone to David's? What has your experience been? Mine was generally positive, and I think I'll likely end up buying a dress there (biggest reason being that Daddy has an open credit account...
I didn't get a second interview. This job search seems like it's going to last forever and I don't know how much more I can take.
