We’re older than the average couple but madly in love. We were planning a regular ceremony/reception, but when our venue closed down we decided to elope instead. We’re now going to New York to get married in Central Park, with a carriage ride to Tavern On The Green where we’ll have a wedding luncheon. I’m still getting a wedding dress and FH is getting a new suit. My brother and niece, and FH’s best friend, will be there too. We’ll even have a pretty but small wedding cake at the restaurant. It should be lots of fun!

Happily married 🎉

Is there a way to remove vendor types you won’t be using?

Baker disappeared?
Sandy in Account Support, on March 3, 2019 at 7:54 PM

I was messaging with a shop in NYC called “Eat Great Cake” but my conversation and her listing have disappeared. She was one of my finalists so I’d like to find it again. Help?

Alternative reception activities
Sandy in Wedding Reception, on January 11, 2019 at 4:53 PM

We’re a bit older and neither we nor our friends do the dancing thing, so we’re not having a band or dj at our reception for ~25 people. We’re just setting up a laptop & speakers for some music....

My venue closed down!! Welcome to my pity party.
Sandy in Planning, on December 26, 2018 at 11:21 PM

OMG, I’m so upset. We’ve had a venue for both ceremony and reception reserved for 3 months now and I found out today that they’ve closed down. No warning, no word, nothing. I’ve started looking again...

Graphic Mock Up - what do you think?
Sandy in Style and Décor, on November 14, 2018 at 11:22 PM

I’ve done a mock up of my table using some graphics apps. After making a few changes, this is what I have. What do you guys think? Is it too much? I’m DIYing everything so want to be sure before I buy...

Bouquet holder
Sandy in Style and Décor, on October 16, 2018 at 8:19 PM

I’m trying to find some type of holder or stand for our bouquets so we can set them upright on the table at the reception. I could just use a glass vase, but that just doesn’t appeal to me. I’ve seen...
