BAM love being married to my bestfriend
Mrs.Mayes in Etiquette and Advice, on November 30, 2014 at 1:14 PM

I loved our ceremony and wouldn't change anything about it. My flower girls did a great job singing. I was a little surprised when it came to my ring bearers because the shy one actually ended up...

Bachelorette weekend
Mrs.Mayes in Community Conversations, on October 15, 2014 at 11:52 AM

Can't remember who but somebody the other day asked how it went. We went to Asheville, NC where my mom lives(she threw a fit saying we had to come to her). My aunt got us all tickets to The Addams...

Saturday I went to Davids Bridal thinking I just needed a bustle(another seamstress told me I didn't need it hemmed). Well an hour and a half later I payed $212 for about 2 inches to be taken...

Alterations and bachelorette party this weekend
Mrs.Mayes in Wedding Attire, on October 2, 2014 at 10:22 AM

Before I go to my weekend party I'm stopping by David Bridal for my alterations appointment. All I'm having done is a bustle. For my dress what do you think would be the cheapest bustle I could get...

RSVP deadline in two days
Mrs.Mayes in Do It Yourself, on September 29, 2014 at 10:31 AM

I have a ton of people to contact about whether or not they are coming to the wedding. Several people I'm going to text or message on fb. I'm trying to come up with something that gets the point...

Where would you rather get ready?
Mrs.Mayes in Etiquette and Advice, on September 27, 2014 at 9:13 AM

Our venue is a totally enclosed park pavilion. Originally us girls planned on getting ready there but the bathroom is REALLY tiny. So if the ceremony ended up having to be moved inside because of the...

A little annoyed about honeymoon
Mrs.Mayes in Etiquette and Advice, on September 23, 2014 at 9:08 AM

We've changed where we plan to go about 5 different times(manly because of money). Last night we agreed that we'd prefer to go to Atlanta Georgia(it's in the middle when it comes to cost). So we...

I loved my hair trial!!
Mrs.Mayes in Wedding Attire, on September 20, 2014 at 9:43 AM

Last night my cousin came over to do my hair trial. She spent the first hour just curling my hair. Once she curled it I decided that the front looked too short and poodleish(the back is longer then...

Hair color
Mrs.Mayes in Wedding Attire, on September 15, 2014 at 1:29 PM

I planned on dying my hair red like the picture below. But now I'm thinking it might look weird and matchy since one of our colors is red. Fh is wearing a red shirt, bridesmaids dresses are red, and...

Saved money Yay!!!
Mrs.Mayes in Wedding Attire, on September 11, 2014 at 4:18 PM

When I bought my dress the women who put me in it was too lazy to actually lace me all the way up. So it caused it to not sit on me right and make it look like I needed it hemmed. Well when I went to...

Rude family rant
Mrs.Mayes in Wedding Attire, on September 9, 2014 at 10:17 AM

I said something about needing to make an appointment to get my dress hemmed and bustled while my grandmother and her husband were in the car with FH and I. First thing out her husbands mouth is "you...

What should bridesmaids carry?
Mrs.Mayes in Do It Yourself, on September 7, 2014 at 11:33 AM

Our wedding is Halloween themed and I'm trying to come up with something for the bridesmaids to carry. I like lanterns but they are expensive for our budget. We don't want flowers. I thought about...

Mrs.Mayes in Etiquette and Advice, on September 3, 2014 at 11:19 PM

My great grandmother has Alzheimer but has to stay home alone during the day because the family doesn't have the money to pay for her to have a at home nurse or put her in a nursing home. Tonight my...

Mrs.Mayes in Etiquette and Advice, on September 3, 2014 at 7:24 PM

FMIL rant
Mrs.Mayes in Etiquette and Advice, on September 1, 2014 at 9:31 AM

I've never met my FHs mother because when he was 14 she met a guy from Egypt on FB and decided to abandon her children to go marry him. She told the kids she was just taking a few things over to a...

Good price for food?
Mrs.Mayes in Do It Yourself, on August 26, 2014 at 9:37 AM

FHs two aunts have offered to cook all of our wedding food. They seem really excited to do it too. But I was thinking it might be easier if we got the meat already made from a restaurant then just let...

Are you having a signature drink(s)?
Mrs.Mayes in Do It Yourself, on August 25, 2014 at 9:50 AM

We're having a dry wedding(we both are not 21 yet and my family would be against it anyway). But I still wanted to come up with a signature drink for each of us. Should we do something cute with our...

Our wedding is at the end of October in a park. The reception will be totally inside, in their closed in pavilion. For the ceremony we originally said we'd just have it in the open grass area near the...

Mrs.Mayes in Etiquette and Advice, on August 15, 2014 at 4:24 PM

What's something you have like a condition or something you just do that most people don't like? (could be as simple as chewing your nails or ocd)The entire time we've been together I've had...
