MrsPettit in Etiquette and Advice, on April 15, 2016 at 8:21 PM

So my dad wasn't there growing up, not a big deal, it's been over 20 years -- I'm over it. He's not walking my down the aisle, but I am throwing him a bone on the father daughter dance song. Now I'm...

MrsPettit in Married Life, on August 23, 2016 at 8:25 PM

It's been three months since the wedding. The name is changed, we got our vase back from Unity in Glass, thank you notes are written, photos are hung. Then last night we got our last wedding-related...

Photos After the Wedding
MrsPettit in Etiquette and Advice, on July 8, 2016 at 9:17 PM

Ladies who are married and have stuck around (or engaged and super on their game) -- what did you do with your wedding photos? Did you stick to an album? Canvas? A couple frames? Did you deck out an...

Slightly Belated BAM - Pro Pics
MrsPettit in Etiquette and Advice, on June 13, 2016 at 4:26 PM

We got a preview of our pro pics back and it looked like enough to do a BAM. But first, the advice: 1. Do what makes you happy. My one regret is that I didn't stand up to my FILs and have the bridal...

Tell me about your wedding night!
MrsPettit in Married Life, on March 31, 2016 at 6:17 PM

I know these posts have been done in the past, but I'm trying to procrastinate on cleaning/planning/working so I thought I'd ask again: How did you spend your wedding night? Binge eating all the food...

7 days until the Wedding and I've become a meteorologist
MrsPettit in Planning, on May 14, 2016 at 5:53 PM

Ever since the wedding popped into the two week forecast I've been keeping an eye on the weather, but now that we're 7 days out I'm triangulating between three popular weather sites and local reports....

BAS - Ladies of the Porch
MrsPettit in Planning, on April 17, 2016 at 11:29 PM

My mom is part of a group called "The Porch Ladies" -- self named by the fact that they sit on the porch once a week and drink wine, catch up, and talk about life. As their kids have gotten older,...

Came home from a not-so-hot day at work. Signed on to WW and there it was! You do just sign on one day and have them!

What did you forget/almost forget for your honeymoon?
MrsPettit in Honeymoon, on April 6, 2016 at 1:39 PM

I'm starting to draft up a honeymoon packing list. What things fell off the radar (or nearly fell off the radar). It's been a while since I traveled internationally, so I just added to bring pens to...

What's Your Take on Etiquette for When You Can't Attend a Wedding?
MrsPettit in Etiquette and Advice, on April 10, 2016 at 12:58 PM

We've got a little over two weeks until our RSVPs are due. FI's family is declining in surprising amounts, which is fine -- I completely understand that it's not easy to fly in, potentially take a day...

MrsPettit in Planning, on April 4, 2016 at 8:52 AM

Super excited. We've procrastinated hard on this, but we have our first dance lesson tonight. We're not doing anything choreographed, I just want to have some skills slightly above an awkward middle...

Ladies without thigh gaps: chafing on the big day?
MrsPettit in Wedding Attire, on April 1, 2016 at 10:09 PM

Getting down to the nitty gritty logistics. I've only been in my dress for 15-20 minutes at any given time but I'm sure that sometime around hour 2, it's going to turn everything into Death Valley in...

First World Registry Problems
MrsPettit in Planning, on April 3, 2016 at 10:37 AM

FI and I have lived together for over three years and both lived on our own for a few years before that so our house is pretty fully stocked already. We followed the sage advice of registering for...

FI's brother and his wife are coming up a few days before the wedding because they live out of the country. We were planning on holding a small get together where my parents would make their famous...

Is this at all confusing? Invitation Wording.
MrsPettit in Etiquette and Advice, on January 4, 2016 at 9:07 PM

Background: FIs parents are throwing the rehearsal dinner. While they fancy themselves brilliant planners, they’re actually spectacularly bad at it. The rehearsal dinner is more like a welcome dinner...

Deal Alert: Old Navy Flip Flops
MrsPettit in Community Conversations, on November 29, 2015 at 10:14 AM

Old Navy started their Cyber Monday sale early, and it's 40% off everything. While not as good as the $1 flip flop sale, it does make their flip flops $1.50/pair for those who don't like...

Best (commercially available) thing you brought on your Honeymoon?
MrsPettit in Honeymoon, on November 7, 2015 at 2:30 PM

Talk of gift lists has started around here, and this holiday season gift giving will be heavily focused on making sure we have stuff to wear/bring on our Honeymoon. So while I know that the best thing...

How far in advance to schedule fittings?
MrsPettit in Planning, on October 30, 2015 at 1:35 PM

So I was going through my Knot checklist and one of my 'To-Do' for this month is to schedule dress fitting appointments even though I'm not getting married until May 2016. I've heard to leave your...
