My birthday is in two weeks and my mom surprised me today by telling me she's ordering (and paying) for my dress! I'm super excited and as really glad that DB happened to have a sale going on so my...

My aunt is having a bridal shower in a couple weeks. They included a recipe card to bring to the shower but also included her registries. Am I wrong to think that's weird to expect both? I always...

We set our budget to $15,000 based on the average cost of a wedding in our area. Last night I did some math and with our monthly saving and regular plasma donations over 18 months we will not...

I decided it wasn't fair that I was the only one getting a shiny thing to show off so I decided to order him a ring. I got a coin ring off of etsy today and I hope he really likes it.

Who pays for flower girl/ring bearer attire? I always thought the parents paid for it, but my mom said that that we're supposed to buy for it. I really don't care that much about a certain look for...

FBIL is driving me crazy. From the moment we got engaged he has said that he "better be" the best man. FH and him aren't close at all and FH has always wanted to ask his best friend. We kind of...

My aunt is getting married this June. She is supposed to have a bridal shower in April and I was originally going to attend since my mom and sisters were flying up to go as well. Now my mom can't make...

We plan on doing a buffet for our wedding as we found a cater that we love who is within our budget and the way our venue is set up there won't be any long lines. I also planned on assigning people to...

I don't know if anyone recalls but about a week or so ago my father told me that unless FH and I were married in the Catholic rite he could not support our "circus". I talked with both him and my mom...

After my phone call with my dad I had a conversation with my mom. They would be content with me just having a catholic priest officiate the outdoor ceremony. I know that will be near impossible to...

My dad called me out of the blue tonight. He wanted to see if I had gotten his letter. He told me he didn't want to stress me out but wants to tweak our ceremony so we're starting out on the "right...

During our trip to AZ, FH had a conversation with my dad where my dad told him how happy he was that FH was in my life and how he could see us getting married, etc. I took this as my father's blessing...
