I'm fine that several of our wedding guests didn't bring gifts. We don't need things, and are very appreciative of the gifts we did get (pretty much our whole registry). But several guests didn't even...
I've been off WW for a while, between the wedding, the honeymoon, Thanksgiving... But enjoying married life and definitely did not experience any post-wedding letdown, like I thought I might. The day...
I posted before about how it was odd to me that several couples (middle aged, professional) didn't bring a gift or even a card. I'm not too worried about no gift, but the no card was weird to me....
It was just the best day! I just don't think we could have asked for or hoped for any better. Weather was perfect. Venue was lovely. Food was amazing. Cakes were delicious! and people had a great...
2 days to go. yikes! So...after a stressful day yesterday, because FH's dog died. She was old, so we knew she was heading in that direction, but still...got the call from his mom (where the dog...
Someone tell me it's going to be ok. That people are going to have a good time. That my DIY stuff is not going to look too hokey (there's not a ton of it, thank goodness). That the feeling of love and...
OK...one more thing for me to freak out about in the final week. We have allotted our venue time so that we can do a first look (just us and the photographer) and then get the group shots of family...
PSA: do your DIY crafts enough ahead of time, um, so the burns from the glue gun have time to heal! Can just see it now...'oh look, the bride has on old-fashioned gloves' 'To cover the ghastly burns,...
Pretty much love it! Might loosen it up a little or have some hair long and curly with it. But loved the hair stylist!
Invited: 159 Accepted: 137 extras added by guests: 1 plus 1 maybe (I didn't have the bridal balls to tell FH's aunt no on the maybe) declined: 22 (13.8%) Number of times I stressed and/or cried and...
FH and I do like our photographer, and our E-pics were ok, but not spectacular. Possibly because we weren't very relaxed. But it didn't seem like we did very many 'creative' shots....I know it was too...
The other post got me thinking, and worried. The one thing that I am the most concerned about ruining on my wedding day is the photos. I have Bell's Palsy...in college, I got an inner ear infection...
We have survived the RSVP chase-down and have a final number. Which includes 2 people that were added on...since it was just two and my bridal balls were not in place, they were allowed (with some...
Don't know if this was posted before. I just saw it yesterday. So funny! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENARMPuU758 also...LOL...using copy and paste, y'all almost got my wedding timeline. yay,...
You know...the one that says something along the line of "if you we don't hear from you by tomorrow, we will be sorry to miss you at the wedding" or something like that. (Translation: thanks a lot for...
This is sort of a dilemma. FH and I are not having a bridal party. Though I have been referring to my sisters as my VIPs because they have been super helpful, like bridesmaids, going to appts and...
So much fun! Could not believe the outpouring of love (and the pile of gifts)! My sisters put it on for me, and we had the perfect mix of friends and family there. Couldn't have asked for a nicer day...
My shower is tomorrow! Questions: 1) When do I give the hostesses their hostess gifts? at the end? in front of other guests? I can't remember what my niece did when we hosted a shower for her last...
Dear FMIL: maybe you think you're being funny, but when you refer to the wedding info I distribute as "the rules" and then mention that you are "following orders" it's not cute or funny, esp when you...
So relieved. I knew that part of our venue fee was for the owners to also do DOC stuff, but I figured that they might not do *as much* as a full on DOC. I was wrong! She told me to bring all my decor...
