My FH and I made an extensive (yet well-organized) wedding website because we have so many people travelling, we wanted to make sure they had all the info they could possibly need and more. I can't...

Anyone else finding it tougher to keep the weight off (or keep taking weight off) when you get closer to the date?!? I find myself so busy (and slightly stressed about everything that has to still be...

For those of you getting close to your wedding date, I've noticed that after the shower a lot of the "more affordable" items on our registry are gone. We had some very generous friends/family members...

We had one but it expired yesterday and we forgot to get them... argh... I just want to kick myself! Anyway, can anyone helps us out here? (It's for the personlized M&Ms)

How do you ladies do it? My FH is an only child, so he was taken care of constantly. Everything was done for him. His mom was also super busy so if things didn't get done when she asked, she just did...
