FH and I found a pretty good deal on our flight to London for our honeymoon in May and are all ready to book... but there's an issue with layovers on our available options. We're limited to one...
Here's the deal: We are moving across the country 10 days after we get back from the honeymoon. I am quitting my job a week before the wedding and will be searching for a new one once we get settled....
On Friday, FH and I got the amazing news that he matched to our second choice residency program on the UWS of Manhattan. Housing is provided for a reduced rate through the program, and we are so...
Our venue only does tastings four months out (which we were aware of), only on Wednesdays and Thursdays (which we did not know), and need a 14 day lead time in advance. This would have been fine,...
I want to preface this by stating that I really like my inlaws. They are excellent people, and FH is very close with them, but his mom can be a little manipulative. And now that they found out that...
I came home from work today to find a notice on my apartment door about an inspection on Wednesday that specifically mentioned crating any animals. Usually one of us has been home during inspections,...
Help me! My BMs are my best friend of 26 years, my two best friends from college, FH's sister, and FH's very close friend Jaime that he asked me to put in the wedding party. He has known Jaime for 12...
FH and I are in a fairly unique financial situation, in which I have a salaried job in addition to a substantial amount of self employed income, while he has absolutely nothing. On average, I owe...
After like a hundred different designs and months of deliberation (I'm a crazy person...), FH and I finally ordered our STDs! For those considering Wedding Paper Divas, they allow you to use multiple...
My venue kindly includes white linens and chair covers, but I want to buy table runners to add some color. I ordered a swatch matching the bridesmaid dresses, and I ideally want to find table runners...
So I bought my dress this weekend, but hesitated on that weird longline bra because I'm not sure I want to wear that thing all day. The consultant said I could have cups sewn in, so now I'm really...
All I wanted was something simple, classic, and elegant, and I think I got my wish.
...and I'm going by myself. I don't live close to my friends or family so I'm going home for 40 hours (quick weekend trip that will unfortunately require Saturday appointments) the week after next and...
For a month. Starting Saturday. He has his first audition rotation at Wake Forest, a program he wants but I desperately do not (awful location for my career). We've spent a little time apart here and...
I'm very lucky that my FILs and my parents are chipping in, but FH and I will paying for about 40% of the wedding ourselves, and all of the honeymoon. And by ourselves, I mean myself. I'm the sole...
FH and I are planning on spending our honeymoon in London, Paris, and Venice, and we are so excited. I have never been to Europe and FH can't wait to show me some of his favorite places. In starting...
Does anyone else feel like there is a constant balancing act between families during the planning process? I'm not sure who's at the root of the issue, but my mom and my FMIL are subtly pulling at...
After getting over the sticker shock of hair/makeup costs, I found someone I want to use, but it is way too early for a trial, especially since I need to cut about 8 inches off my hair before it will...
I know I have some time, but I'm starting to worry about hair and makeup. The prices I'm seeing for my area are a little shocking compared to what I've paid to be in other weddings, and while I don't...
My coworker's two weeks ran out last Friday, and my department is down to my two bosses and me. We have been unsuccessfully trying to hire an intern for about 4 months. I was hired as an intern at...
