How necessary is lingerie?
MrsPoutine in Wedding Attire, on March 17, 2016 at 2:22 PM

So my dress is a very fitted, structured corset bodice with a ballgown. I am having cups sewn in. As I go through my wedding to-do's, the one I've kept ignoring is "buy lingerie". I'm not sure how...

Show me your earrings (And help me choose mine!)
MrsPoutine in Wedding Attire, on December 28, 2015 at 11:51 PM

So, my earlobes are stretched- about 4g/5mm or so - so they aren't super noticeable. But if I take my plugs out, the hole is definitely noticeable. And they're too big to wear conventional earrings....

Invites ordered, but not without some drama
MrsPoutine in Planning, on November 24, 2015 at 10:36 AM

I spent hours designing and reviewing the design on vista print. Left it open for days, checking back to make sure I liked it, tweaking as necessary. Sent it to my MOH (a book editor), posted it here,...

Those using WW RSVP - did you give your guests more than one option?
MrsPoutine in Etiquette and Advice, on November 20, 2015 at 9:44 PM

I'm in the process of designing my invitations. My plan, since I'm using vista print and WW RSVP system, is to print a matching business card with RSVP info and insert that with the invitation. I...

MrsPoutine in Etiquette and Advice, on October 14, 2015 at 6:41 PM

Alright, time for some context... I have a wonderful relationship with MIL and step-FIL. They treat me like a daughter. FIL and step-MIL? Not so much. Not for a lack of trying, but we don't see eye to...
