I know this will probably get drowned out a little due to everything else going on on WW today, but I still want to put it out there. 10 years ago on my 16th birthday my brother gave me the best gift,...

OGmelanie in Community Conversations, on July 24, 2015 at 7:01 PM

I know it's only been just under two weeks, but we have yet to see even one pic from our photographer. I'm not expecting them all to be finished by now, but a sneak peak would be nice. I noticed a lot...

Well I'm finally a married woman! The day went by so fast. Our officiate was nothing short of amazing and the ceremony was absolutely beautiful. I couldn't believe the amount of people that told us...

NWR: Is anyone a dental technician?
OGmelanie in Community Conversations, on July 1, 2015 at 11:09 PM

So I'm finally taking the leap and looking at better jobs. I landed a (hopefully) really great interview next week with a dental tech company. I know these questions could probably be asked about any...

Our DJs are amazing!
OGmelanie in Community Conversations, on June 13, 2015 at 11:37 AM

I had our final meeting with the DJs last night and I can't believe how amazingly helpful they were. They are both members of lodge (community center type location) we are renting for the ceremony and...

Stupid little things you don't think of.
OGmelanie in Do It Yourself, on June 7, 2015 at 6:56 PM

Today FMIL asked me what was going to be on the table in terms of drinks. I said we are putting to bottles of wine at each table. Then she said asked me if there was going to be water because maybe 1...

July brides! (especially July 11th) Check-in.
OGmelanie in Community Conversations, on May 21, 2015 at 8:26 AM

The day is fast approaching and I don't know how I feel right now. Somewhere between a mix of excitement, panicked and IDGAF I guess. No one else seems to GAF. I have no idea what I'm supposed to be...

Quick marriage license question
OGmelanie in Etiquette and Advice, on May 16, 2015 at 5:44 PM

I'm filling out the application and it asks for your religious denomination. I'm baptized Roman Catholic, but I'm not practicing. Do I put Catholic or N/A? I'm sure it's no big deal, but I don't want...

FH and I need to pick a recessional song and he wants to try and find a ukulele cover of something, but we're not sure exactly what yet. Is there something out there similar to the vitamin string...

I don't know how to respond to this without sounding like an a**hole
OGmelanie in Do It Yourself, on March 31, 2015 at 5:45 PM

I sent an e-mail to our DJ last August inquiring about their services and never got a response via e-mail. I ending up calling them, meeting in person, signing the contract..etc. Randomly today I got...

Lets talk lipstick!
OGmelanie in Community Conversations, on March 25, 2015 at 7:58 PM

Make-up posts come up frequently, but I never usually look at them. Maybe I should from now on. I'm in need of a good lipstick that's actually going to last. It's not something I usually wear so I'm a...

I've been trying to look online, but I'm not finding too many. I feel like I'm maybe leaving too much time for some things and not enough for others. If anyone has an extremely detailed timeline they...

Question for the wine drinkers
OGmelanie in Etiquette and Advice, on February 17, 2015 at 6:14 PM

How many reasonable sized glasses of wine do you think come in a 1L bottle (33.8oz)? Yes I have googled it, but I keep getting mixed answers. I thought I'd try my luck here.
