Ostrich in Community Conversations, on March 17, 2015 at 6:56 PM

Ostrich in Planning, on March 6, 2015 at 11:51 AM

I feel like I may have too many options since we'll also have beer and wine, so tell me what you'd get rid of or swap out. We get to supply all our own liquor (non-negotiable when venue searching, I...

Same or different Michael Kors bags for bridal gift?
Ostrich in Planning, on February 6, 2015 at 9:49 AM

So all my girls like Michael Kors, and so it's a no brainer bridal party gift. I know some already have the totes that I was going to get, and I wouldn't want to get them a bag they already have....

Ostrich in Planning, on January 8, 2015 at 12:07 PM

First Dance as various Country Songs combined?
Ostrich in Planning, on November 25, 2014 at 11:31 AM
