KWR: has anyone used this product?
purplekitten in Wedding Attire, on August 28, 2015 at 10:17 AM

LA Splash waterproof lip lustre: http://shop-lasplashcosmetics.com/makeup/lips/studio-lipshine-lip-lustre.html They no longer make the long-lasting lipstick I used to swear by, and I need something...

Is this cute or too matchy-matchy?
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on August 26, 2015 at 12:48 PM

We're giving tumblers in our welcome bags (pictured). I'm now working on placecards for dinner. Would it be cute for them to match like this, or would I be better off spinning in a whole different...

S/O: Toasts - what do I need to know about them?
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on August 20, 2015 at 11:36 AM

I see toasts get mentioned here in passing, but I feel like I know nothing about them. Do I need to give a toast? Does FH? Do we need to tell anyone else to do one (we don't have a bridal party)? What...

Anyone NOT writing their own vows?
purplekitten in Planning, on August 17, 2015 at 11:19 AM

I didn't plan on it, but when I brought it up to my FH, he didn't realize that was an option. He thought you HAD to. Is he right? If he's not right, is it like, pretty much expected of you anyway?...

KWR: Would you appreciate this in a welcome bag?
purplekitten in Community Conversations, on August 19, 2015 at 9:33 AM

As many of you know, I'm having my wedding on a beach resort in Mexico. As I'm trying to think of what to put in the welcome bags, I as thinking about how whenever I go to a beach resort, I'm super...

Ring regret!
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on August 18, 2015 at 10:41 AM

FH and i purchased our wedding bands over the weekend, and I'm having regret about mine. I'm afraid it doesn't look with with my engagement ring. I feel like it should look more like the diamond-style...

It finally happened: Wedding Dream
purplekitten in Community Conversations, on August 12, 2015 at 10:20 AM

So in the dream, instead of being at the resort in Mexico, we were at some mediocre resort in Wisconsin Dells. My mom kept making me check my bags to see if I had packed any beer, even though I kept...

NWR: Ostriches
purplekitten in Community Conversations, on July 29, 2015 at 9:16 AM

It's Wednesday, and I'm all set with my Ostrich socks that I picked up at Target! Bonus: their butts are fuzzy and soft.

When to host a party at home after DW?
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on July 13, 2015 at 1:50 PM

My FFIL wants us to have a reception in his home town for those who can't make it to Mexico for the wedding, but FH and I decided we'd rather host something at our home so that it can be a dual...

Eeeeeeeeee! They're here and I love them so much! (invitations)
purplekitten in Style and Décor, on July 6, 2015 at 2:22 PM

I ordered them Tuesday. The site said 3-5 weeks, but they're here and they're amazing! ETA credit where credit is due: https://www.etsy.com/shop/SproullieDesigns

FFIL wants us to have an "at-home" reception after our DW
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on July 6, 2015 at 10:15 AM

"At-home" is in quotes because he means where he is from, not where FH and I live. It's where FH grew up and the majority of his family live, but it's 55ish miles from our house. Oh, and since my...

S/o: Name change and email adresses?
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on July 1, 2015 at 9:34 AM

I plan on changing my name when I get married. I'm worried, though, about my email address. It's *****************@******.***. I've had it for over a decade. Everything is tied to that email address....

KWR: Has anyone taken a professional makeup lesson?
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on June 26, 2015 at 3:21 PM

I'm going to be doing my own makeup for the wedding, and I don't really want to look the same as I do every other day. I'm thinking about taking a makeup lesson, which is offered at the salon where I...

S/O: Not your usual tipping question...
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on June 24, 2015 at 4:28 PM

How do you go about making sure the actual tipping happens? I'm thinking about all the people I should probably tip: the officiant, the servers at the cocktail hour, the musicians at the cocktail...

purplekitten in Community Conversations, on June 23, 2015 at 9:58 AM

I completely forgot to go over the invitations proofs with my FH last night because TOO MANY KITTENS! We had two foster kittens. The shelter we volunteer at got a litter of four in over the weekend....

Where are you keeping your wedding savings?
purplekitten in Etiquette and Advice, on June 22, 2015 at 4:07 PM

As many of you know, FH and I bought a house a few weeks ago. Right before then, I liquidated all of our non-retirement investments. I know how much of the remaining (post down payment) money we need...

NWR: Tiny new friend!
purplekitten in Community Conversations, on June 16, 2015 at 3:15 PM

FH and I are fostering this kitten until she is old enough to go to the shelter to get adopted. She's around 6 weeks old, and since she was found in an engine, we named her Kaylee. She acts all tough,...

Help with wording?
purplekitten in Planning, on June 15, 2015 at 2:26 PM

I'm trying to put together what I want the insert that goes along with our invitations to say. I want a little bit about booking travel, as well as a mini-itinerary of the ceremony/cocktail...

purplekitten in Planning, on June 15, 2015 at 10:25 AM

So i just got to work this morning and remembered that I forgot to sit down with FH and work on the verbiage for our invitations. I had the same revelation when I got to work Wednesday, Thursday, and...
