I'm driving four hours to Chicago tomorrow to see my best friend for the weekend! So excited, except that the drive to Chicago is the WORST, especially this time because it'll be during rush hour on...
Did you/are you going to send invitations to the officiant, DJ, and photographer? Any other vendors I'm forgetting?
Guys, I'm just having a no-good, very bad Tuesday. I'm supposed to start my period today, which I'm sure isn't helping. We got an estimate from our venue on Friday, which was a little more than we...
Yes, I probably already know the answer to this, but we are just already so freaking far over budget that I'm trying to cut anywhere I can. We decided on a cake, but basically can have four tiers for...
So, my Wednesday is going SO slow so let's chat. Wedding stuff is getting a little out of control and I'm trying to rein it in, but I can see how things will only get more stressful between now and...
So, I know it's proper etiquette to address "Mr. and Mrs. James Smith." However, we have a LOT of people on the guest list that I literally don't know what their real first names are (I know, we are...
I can't decide how I want to wear my hair. Initially I was thinking up in a low curly updo (see first pic), but FH really loves my hair down. I want to show off the back of my dress so "all the way"...
I'm trying to make mugs as bridesmaids' gifts. I tried it this weekend with a tester mug and let it cook in the oven last night. I used dollar store mugs and regular Sharpies. I let the mug sit for a...
So, yesterday I decided to look at our registry online, as I do most days just for fun. I usually just scroll through on autopilot to see if anything is unavailable, see how pretty things are, and...
Also, what is the difference between a place card and escort card? I was thinking these (below), but that was back when we were doing wine bottle centerpieces. Plus, cutting corks in half, yeesh...
What are y'all up to tonight? FH is at his bachelor party (last I heard, 9 hours ago, he was still alive...jury's out since then), so I went out with his best man's girlfriend for dinner. Now I'm at...
I hit the double digits today women! I feel like I've been waiting for this day! FH's bachelor party is this weekend in Vegas and I plan to stay home, drink all the wine, stuff all the envelopes, and...
From the get go, FH and I wanted to have a unique, very "us" wedding. However, throughout the planning process, it feels like due to cost/time/IDGAF, our wedding is becoming more and more generic. We...
Has anyone considered or done a naked wedding cake? The pictures below are ones I love, but I don't know if it's a trend that I'd regret doing later? Or if people think they look weird? FH and I...
First I will start by saying that for the last half hour I have been so confused that Confession Friday wasn't started yet. Wahh, Thursday. Anyway. I plan to get something engraved inside FH's wedding...
I've heard mixed things about this. If you go to a shower and a wedding, should you bring gifts to both? I've never been to a shower as an adult, and am not sure what the proper etiquette is. I'm...
I was having sort of a rough day. My mom was here for the weekend, and as much of a baby as it makes me sound like, I get super bummed when she leaves. Anyway, PMS plus lots of other annoyances made...
Is there such a thing as being too laid back, haha? After stalking forums forever and learning I couldn't dictate what they wear (aside from dresses) without paying for it, I have been pretty hands...
I didn't see one started yet (if so, tell me and I can hide this)! I'm so excited because my mom is coming to stay with me this weekend, and we're going to do lots of wedding things with FMIL! I'm...
Sorry, I know there have been a ton of threads on this, but I'm having a snowflake moment and want to know if MY GIFTS are enough. I got my girls shawls for the day of, planning to try DIY Sharpie...
