SPINOFF: Need for OOT guest bags?
Mrs. Lav in Planning, on February 5, 2015 at 12:09 PM

So our wedding's in NJ and about 90% of our wedding guests are from NJ or nearby in Pennsylvania. (Nearby enough that probably no one will need to stay the night before the wedding.) We have a couple...

"Champagne" bubbles-- help with wording
Mrs. Lav in Planning, on February 4, 2015 at 1:16 PM

So FH and I wanted bubbles for our exit from the ceremony (original, I know), and I found these cute bubbles on Oriental Trading Company (quality's decent-ish, for OTC, definitely workable). I...

NWR: First class of the semester!
Mrs. Lav in Community Conversations, on February 3, 2015 at 4:36 PM

I'm a professor...not a student haha. I'm a little nervous because it's my first time teaching this class (although I've been teaching college courses for about four years). Class got canceled last...

Follow up to cake vs. cupcakes: MINI cupcakes?
Mrs. Lav in Planning, on February 2, 2015 at 1:54 PM

I posted late last week about cupcakes vs cake. FH loves the idea and I found an awesome bakery around the corner who gave us a reasonable quote (esp. for NJ) and free cupcakes (with a "NBD if you...

Super happy with WW!
Mrs. Lav in Community Conversations, on January 29, 2015 at 10:03 PM

So...this is my third post in the last few hours, but I've had some wine and wanted to share. I'm just super happy that everyone on WW is so helpful! I'm so thankful for everyone's input and I enjoy...

Cupcakes instead of cake
Mrs. Lav in Planning, on January 29, 2015 at 12:04 PM

I'm sure this topic has been done to death, but I'm finally warming up to the idea of cupcakes instead of cake. I like the opportunity for a variety of flavors, and I've found some cute fall-themed...

SPINOFF: Navy BMs with gray/black tuxes...and gold?
Mrs. Lav in Wedding Attire, on January 28, 2015 at 12:57 PM

Didn't want to hijack the other thread, but I'm torn on what to do with the groomsmen. Our BM dresses (which I love) are navy, and I've always loved the look of gray suits/tuxes. But, our accent color...

Shoes arrived, snow and all (with bonus doggie picture)!
Mrs. Lav in Wedding Attire, on January 26, 2015 at 6:37 PM

I posted last week when I ordered these, but they came today-- even in the snow! Please ignore my fuzzy stay-at-home leggings and my boot (I haven't worn a left shoe since Sept). Added in my dog for...

Just for fun: Name the wedding decisions you've made (and love) that your mother/FMIL doesn't like
Mrs. Lav in Planning, on January 21, 2015 at 10:07 AM

Some backstory: my parents and I aren't on the best terms right now, and FH and I have decided to plan--and pay for--the entire wedding ourselves. I'm so much happier. We're making a lot of decisions...

Did that "Help! Young Bride" thread get closed?
Mrs. Lav in Community Conversations, on January 23, 2015 at 3:23 PM

...because I just came back with my popcorn and now I'm going to have a boring afternoon. (I mean, best of luck to her if she's real, but....)

Michael Bolton songs (seriously)
Mrs. Lav in Planning, on January 21, 2015 at 8:11 PM

Okay-- well aware I'm going to get made fun of for this one. FH and I LOVE Michael Bolton irrationally (whatever, I'm aware we're the only ones). Like, listened to his audio book on a vacation and saw...

Just bought my wedding shoes!
Mrs. Lav in Wedding Attire, on January 19, 2015 at 4:02 PM

Found these on Etsy and really lucked out. They're 1980s vintage so they count as something old AND something blue! Plus, my bridesmaids are in navy lace so it fits my theme. Also....$36. Can't...

Doilies instead of chargers?
Mrs. Lav in Style and Décor, on January 19, 2015 at 11:22 AM

So as much as I'd love gold chargers, they're out of the budget (even Dollar Tree ones, if I can track them down post-Christmas). I'm thinking of using gold doilies instead, but I can't tell if it's a...

Is this a stupid idea?
Mrs. Lav in Planning, on January 16, 2015 at 2:33 PM

So we're on a budget (budget being as-low-as-possible since I'm shopping around for things, probably end up around $20k for NJ) and our reception space is entirely carpeted. We're having a DJ...

Infant flower girl (flower baby?)
Mrs. Lav in Etiquette and Advice, on January 14, 2015 at 3:46 PM

My flower girl (flower baby?) is the daughter of one of my bridesmaids. She'll only be 13 months old at my wedding. Does anyone have any gift suggestions? I made her a tote bag similar to the ones for...

NWR: Anyone else play "The Bachelor(ette)" Drinking Game?
Mrs. Lav in Community Conversations, on January 12, 2015 at 10:26 PM

Not sure how many of you are watching Farmer Chris this season, but my old roommate and I have been playing the same game since Sean's season (early 2013). Drink when: - anyone says "amazing,"...
