One of my BMs texted me today. She's just started yet another new job (after discrimination at the old one forced her to leave), after moving out to be with her partner in Ohio in November. She said...

Ugh. I hate that I'm even writing this. But now it's coming to me from totally separate people, so... My BP is great. Granted, 4 out of 5 of them know each other/are friends, so with a little...

As you can see from my recent posts, I've been stressed a little. But tonight things got a little better: FH came home from dealing with a family thing in CA. He got out of the train minutes after I...

Hi all, I'm in a bit of a panic. The priest at FH's NYC church just denied us, at 3 1/2 months out, and we can no longer get married in his church. We had planned the entire wedding around this, and...

So, after all the talks with the priest, after the precana disaster... We just spoke to the priest and he is not comfortable having us marry in the church. He is fine with us marrying... he just...

So, my FFILs will be going out of the country from June-July. We were trying to nail down the dates, because we're having a co-ed bridal shower, and we had hoped to have his parents there. Once we...

Ok, maybe not every time, but it sure feels like it. Went BM dress shopping with my maids today, and now I have a fever and feel *awful*. I had a cold last week, when I had my first fitting and our...

A friend of mine told me about them, and I've ordered a sample. She's really impressed with her order. They seem almost too good to be true... I think I could get everything I need (and we have a huge...

So, I have 4 maids and 1 bridesman. 3 of the maids live near me, so I made an appointment to look at BM dresses at David's Bridal. I anticipated looking at materials and lengths and then going online...

And I can't do it on FB, because she and all her family are friends with me on FB. We got engaged 4 months ago. The following interactions have happened with my mother: 1. She called when we got...

So, maybe it's the font we chose, maybe it's the post office, but FH and I have discovered that a significant number of our STDs have gone AWOL/taken waaaaaaaaay too long to get where they are going....

I've just started a hotel block request (well, 2 actually, I deleted the first). I'm having major problems with the whole app. First it wouldn't let me delete the original request, now I can't seem to...

Hi all! I have a coworker who is offering to do my videography. She is an up and coming filmmaker (we both work at the same "survival job"), doing documentary and short film work. When I got engaged,...

And it's going about as well as I expected. That is to say, I've been triggered once, can't sleep, I'm fighting off panic attacks, feel very awkward as the only non-Christian here this weekend, and...

So, my mom and I have a pretty bad relationship. Currently, my mother is in possession of some of my father's family heirloom jewelry (they divorced when I was a teenager). I'm an only child, and this...

FH and I took our engagement pics on Saturday. We don't have the pics, yet, but our photog posted a teaser to his insta and FB: Teaser pic of engagement photo session...

So, I got this awesome dress at the Kleinfeld pop up shop a few weeks ago - however, it was "as is" and thus needs a LOT of alterations. The salesgirl was amazing and sent me over a list of trusted...

Hi NYC brides! I just got engaged and we're hoping to do this super fast and get married this summer. We're confined to NYC because FH's home parish is on the UWS. (He's Catholic.) I'm balanced...
