MrsRies&Love in Wedding Attire, on August 5, 2017 at 11:53 AM

We're going to look at tuxes today, and we're having a hard time choosing a tuxedo color. What would you pair with this combo of BM dress colors?? We're leaning toward maybe navy with a burgundy tie?...

Invitation proof!
MrsRies&Love in Planning, on July 21, 2017 at 4:19 PM

This was the proof we received for the invites. I love them!!! We're going to change "wedding celebration" because I know that implies an after-the-fact, but it's what the invites defaulted to. Our...

MrsRies&Love in Wedding Attire, on July 16, 2017 at 1:17 PM

I recently came across this dress that I would LOVE for the rehearsal dinner, but I'm not sure if it's too dressy for the occasion. It's technically a wedding dress from David's that is also listed in...

Nails!
MrsRies&Love in Wedding Attire, on June 11, 2017 at 3:40 PM

I got my nails done a few days ago (pic below) and it got me thinking about how I'll do my nails for the wedding. What is everyone planning on doing for their nails? Plain? Designs? Bling?

FH's brother not a groomsmen?
MrsRies&Love in Etiquette and Advice, on March 23, 2017 at 10:00 AM

FH is saying that he does not want his brother as a groomsmen. I'm ok with this because in past situations in other weddings, his brother has thrown really inappropriate bachelor parties and is...
