One of my BM's has bought her dress! Yay(pic)
Nicola in Community Conversations, on February 12, 2015 at 10:20 AM

So I was pretty laid back about BM dresses. I told them the colour and said to pick out whatever they wanted as long as it matched the colour. I never expected them to get them straight away, but I...

At a complete loss with what I should be doing...am I being selfish?
Nicola in Etiquette and Advice, on February 13, 2015 at 3:32 PM

Ok, this is probably going to be a long post, so I apologise, but I kinda need some feedback and opinions (even honest ones I may not want to hear). But it's kind of a complicated story. But, FH and I...

Wedding rings arrived - excited and yet disappointed (with pic)
Nicola in Community Conversations, on February 10, 2015 at 10:06 AM

So we intentionally ordered our rings super early because of the hassle of getting them to the tiny island where we live. We knew his parents were coming to visit in Feb so had them sent to them to...

NWR: I officially hate Feburary - cheer me up with wedding porn
Nicola in Etiquette and Advice, on February 6, 2015 at 8:52 AM

So my family lives a long way away, and I'm on my own dealing with some shitty stuff, and you ladies can all be so supportive sometimes, so I am probably over sharing, but I need to 'talk' to people...

Spinoff: NWR weddingwire writers...anyone else?
Nicola in Community Conversations, on January 30, 2015 at 6:21 PM

So spinning off from the 50 Shades of Grey thread a couple of other people (SunshineJenn and LadyMonk) said they are trying to write a book - so I was curious if there was anyone else on here who...

A little 'Yay me!' Moment - weight loss goals...
Nicola in Fitness and Health, on January 23, 2015 at 8:43 AM

So, I set myself a goal in October when FH and I started planning the wedding that I wanted to lose some weight before the wedding. I got straight on a diet, knowing that in the past I almost never...

Starting to feel real...
Nicola in Community Conversations, on January 10, 2015 at 5:18 PM

Ok...so I know I still have many months until my wedding, but to be honest it's all felt a little surreal so far. Like all the conversations about the wedding are hypothetical! But I just paid the...

DIY - first attempt...thoughts?
Nicola in Do It Yourself, on December 6, 2014 at 6:33 PM

So, I am doing these paper flowers for part of the bouquets and buttonholes. They are actually pages out of a Harry Potter book - one of my favourite books - and it's just something I wanted to do to...

Weddings - you're all doing it wrong...
Nicola in Community Conversations, on November 26, 2014 at 3:04 PM

Bridal Showers? Tacky as all hell and gift-grabby to boot. How many parties do you need? Personal vows? Cringeworthy and tacky. Double whammy. Big bridal parties? Tacky. Garter toss? Tacky Ring...

Who pays for Bridal Party Attire??
Nicola in Etiquette and Advice, on November 17, 2014 at 7:44 AM

Ok, so we've got a little confusion in our house with my FH and I about this. In the UK it's common for the bride and groom to pay for everything for the bridal party in terms of clothes etc. But he...

My FH's clever motivational idea...
Nicola in Fitness and Health, on November 12, 2014 at 8:03 AM

So, I just wanted to share this cos I thought it was such a sweet idea of my FH. I was struggling to figure my hair and makeup into the budget. We've got a small budget and I wasn't sure how much of a...

Nicola in Do It Yourself, on November 6, 2014 at 8:52 AM

So my STD's are finally ready to go. I say partial DIY because my sister and I designs them and my BIL hand drew the design etc. So kinda DIY. I love them because they are completely unique because...

NWR: Just something I really need to get off my chest...
Nicola in Etiquette and Advice, on October 16, 2014 at 1:14 PM

So, today should have been my parent's 38th wedding anniversary. They met over 40 years ago and were so incredibly in love all my life. Sadly my Dad passed away earlier this year. Completely out of...

I'm new - and just started planning a very complicated wedding!
Nicola in Etiquette and Advice, on October 10, 2014 at 11:26 AM

So I thought I'd say hello. I've been lurking on the forums for a week or so now, thought it was about time that I actually posted something. A little about me and my FH and our wedding plans. I'm...

Who should be conducting the ceremony??
Nicola in Etiquette and Advice, on October 13, 2014 at 6:12 PM

So, I know this is probably going to sound like a completely dumb question - but I'm getting married in the US (I'm from the UK) and I don't know who I should be looking for to do our ceremony. I...
