Professional photos... how many poses?
NJ Bride in Community Conversations, on September 2, 2011 at 1:13 PM

So I used to work for my photographer, and would see wedding photos, but I have no idea how many posed photos were actually taken! I have a list a mile long that I know I'm going to need to cut down...

Experienced cruisers - what to pack?
NJ Bride in Planning, on September 3, 2011 at 8:27 AM

I've never been on a cruise before, but I've heard things like "it gets cold at night" which made me realize I should probably bring some layers. Are there other things I should consider packing that...

The wedding is on!!! SOOOO happy!
NJ Bride in Community Conversations, on September 1, 2011 at 9:37 AM

So, as many of you know, we were in danger of having to come up with a plan B for the reception because they were hit by Irene - we knew their power was out, but we didn't know what other sort of...

Anyone else feeling a little "zilla"-ish lately?
NJ Bride in Etiquette and Advice, on August 31, 2011 at 10:22 AM

Just feeling like I'm asking a lot of people lately and I'm usually pretty laid back. I think having to check EVERYTHING related to the wedding after Irene sorta sent me over the edge. I'm trying not...

Just wanted to let you guys know that I've heard rumors that some people who can't make my reception are coming to the ceremony! I never would have thought to print out extra programs, but I guess...

NJ Bride in Planning, on August 30, 2011 at 1:48 PM

So... we can't reach anyone at our venue and the reports of flooding keep getting closer and closer to our venue. My parents are willing to drive out there tonight, but they live an hour away, so I'd...

UPDATED: Trying not to freak out - 20 days to go and we may have to replan the entire wedding!
NJ Bride in Planning, on August 28, 2011 at 2:35 PM

So... the shore town where our venue is, is flooded (and the venue is on a lake 1/2 a mile from the shoreline)... the boardwalk where we were taking pictures is 3/4s destroyed... the cake, limo and...

NJ Bride in Fitness and Health, on August 24, 2011 at 11:33 AM

So, I'm REALLY happy with the way I look now (yay)! Stomach is ALMOST flat! But I'm borrowing a slip from a friend who was obviously just a little bit thinner than I am. It zips up (with some effort),...

Anyone else worried about their venue?
NJ Bride in Community Conversations, on August 27, 2011 at 5:03 PM

Three weeks 'til and Irene will be hitting my venue in NJ. It's about half a mile from the beach and on a lake. Oh, and the cocktail room is made entirely of glass. I'll be calling them first thing...

NJ Bride in Planning, on August 27, 2011 at 1:23 PM

We should probably get going on that. Any suggestions from anyone who has already done it? I have a feeling it's going to be the second most difficult part of planning... after the guest list.

Shoplifting food for the reception... now why didn't I think of that as a way to save money? ;)
NJ Bride in Community Conversations, on August 25, 2011 at 2:57 PM

Http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/44269980/ns/us_news-weird_news/ Just too funny. I wonder how you even attempt to hide $1000 worth of stuff.

Have you been a bad wedding guest?
NJ Bride in Community Conversations, on August 22, 2011 at 9:05 PM

Ok... so we all hate when people are bad guests to our wedding, but let's remember we're all human! I know I once forgot to send back and RSVP card (and felt terrible when I got the phone call)! I'd...

Changing health care... 15 days?!?
NJ Bride in Etiquette and Advice, on August 22, 2011 at 12:40 PM

So, apparently I only have 15 days after the wedding to make any changes with health care I want to make. That seems REALLY short to me - does anyone else know if that's typical? I'm not even sure...
