Got my bridal shower dress!
Sarah195 in Wedding Attire, on July 23, 2016 at 11:24 AM

I'm really excited about this dress because I think it totally fits the theme of brunch and bubbly! I got it last night for $31 and it was originally $90! I have to take it back today...

Calling all fitness buffs!
Sarah195 in Wedding Attire, on July 21, 2016 at 8:54 AM

So I lost 132 pounds on weight watchers but something I never did was take measurements while losing weight so I'm not sure if this is realistic or not. I ordered my dress last May and found out I was...

We are doing a plated dinner and each guest will get beef and chicken on their plates (don't worry we have a vegetarian option available and our whole dinner entree is gluten free and most of our...

Sarah195 in Planning, on July 15, 2016 at 4:09 PM

We sent out invitations last week due to one of our hotel blocks closing August 1st and we are starting to get RSVP's in and so far no declines! However we addressed the invitation specifically to...

FH dropped the ball big time *update in comments
Sarah195 in Wedding Attire, on July 12, 2016 at 10:04 AM

And the church isn’t completely blameless either. Back in January we decided rather than get married at our reception venue we wanted a church wedding so we visited the church and booked it. We knew...

Catholic wedding programs?
Sarah195 in Planning, on July 11, 2016 at 8:34 AM

Are they really necessary? I know the ceremony is longer than most and there is a lot to it but do guests really need a program for it? I would like to save money if they aren't needed!

Bathroom and hashtag signs!
Sarah195 in Do It Yourself, on July 8, 2016 at 5:40 PM

I have to say I'm pretty proud of these because normally I hate my handwriting! I think I'm all done with DIY projects for the wedding now. I had no intentions of even making these but randomly...

Baskets
Sarah195 in Planning, on July 8, 2016 at 11:42 AM

I have some great coupons to use at Michaels today so I'm going to purchase baskets for the bathrooms. What should I put in them and what should I not bother with? I know when I attend weddings I...

Venue meeting last night!
Sarah195 in Planning, on July 6, 2016 at 11:05 AM

I am so glad we chose our venue because the coordinator there is seriously amazing. She was so helpful with saving us money, giving us ideas, and creating a timeline. I was not looking forward to...

Rehearsal dinner
Sarah195 in Planning, on July 5, 2016 at 8:33 AM

How far in advance does this really need to be planned? Trying to get information from our church is so difficult. We have asked a few times if we could get a time that we can do the rehearsal and...

My wedding boots!
Sarah195 in Wedding Attire, on July 5, 2016 at 10:47 AM

I have my first fitting on Saturday so I figured I better get my wedding boots! I already own a couple pairs but I wanted a nice new pair to walk down the aisle in. So here they are! They were...

Shape wear
Sarah195 in Wedding Attire, on July 1, 2016 at 12:07 AM

I have my first fitting next Saturday so I unfortunately don't have the time to order something online. What stores carry backless shape wear? My dress has a keyhole back and I need something to keep...

Silly FH
Sarah195 in Community Conversations, on June 29, 2016 at 3:17 PM

My FH seriously drives me nuts sometimes! When he was growing up his mom would put all of the meat she just bought from the grocery store in the freezer even if they were going to eat it within the...

So relieved!
Sarah195 in Planning, on June 30, 2016 at 3:17 PM

I was totally expecting our invitations to be super expensive to mail because they are pocket invitations with heavy card stock paper and 3 inserts but they are only going to be 68 cents! I can't wait...

PSA Michaels!
Sarah195 in Do It Yourself, on June 28, 2016 at 1:06 PM

I just checked my email and was so excited to discover that Michaels now has a rewards card! I've spent so much money there over the years not only on wedding items but other crafting items as well...

Make up and hair trial
Sarah195 in Wedding Attire, on June 24, 2016 at 5:00 PM

So I already know that the foundation needs to be a bit lighter and I'm not crazy about the eyeliner but I will have false eyelashes on my wedding day so that will make my eyes pop more but did any of...

Double digits!
Sarah195 in Community Conversations, on June 23, 2016 at 7:06 PM

When FH and I got engaged and set out date we had well over 500 days to count down. Now we are at 99! It feels like it coming up so fast and now we have so much to do with contacting vendors, venue...

Bridal shower dress
Sarah195 in Wedding Attire, on June 16, 2016 at 8:29 PM

So I found what I thought was a great dress for my bridal shower and I showed my mom and of course she doesn't like it. She thinks it looks too much like a wedding dress and it's not appropriate. I'm...
