OMG it's my turn... BAM!!
SB821 in Style and Décor, on August 22, 2015 at 11:48 PM

The wedding was more like a wedding week, and I'm still running on fumes. My husband is out with his family right now while I nap in the hotel, so here it goes! Photos: here's one teaser pulled from...

PRO Pic BAM!! 8/21 Wedding
SB821 in Community Conversations, on September 24, 2015 at 3:02 PM

I LOVE my photographer - seriously. If you're anywhere in CA, hire Anna Delores Photography. Her contract says it'll be 6-8 weeks for all the professional shots, but I was half-way through my...

Update: Dress and I Made It!
SB821 in Community Conversations, on August 16, 2015 at 12:08 PM

I was freeeeeaking out that my giant human-sized wedding gown garment bag wouldn't get past the flight attendants and throng of inevitably pissy commercial travelers, but it's all good! Bonus of being...

Last day - next stops: Colorado, Vegas, and MARRIAGE :)
SB821 in Community Conversations, on August 14, 2015 at 9:50 AM

Finally, it's here! It's my last day at my firm - my desk is cleared and my bags are packed. Tomorrow: one night back in my childhood home, then road-tripping from CO to CA with my MOH with two...

FREAKING OUT
SB821 in Planning, on August 11, 2015 at 1:51 PM

Not the first time I've worried about this, but now it's more real and OMG. My dress is huge. Like, it's not a massive 50-layer ballgown, but when the salon stuffs it full of tissue paper to keep it...

Sadness - The People Who Just... Disappear
SB821 in Etiquette and Advice, on August 6, 2015 at 3:37 PM

All but one RSVP is in! And the one missing I just can't get over or explain. A dear friend of mine for years (we used to wait tables together in college) lives across the country but we've remained...

Long Tables - Would This Piss You Off?
SB821 in Etiquette and Advice, on August 5, 2015 at 4:17 PM

From the beginning of the planning, my FH and I knew 100% we wanted long tables, not rounds. Done. Now we're in the seating arrangement/table layout phase, and while we originally planned for two rows...

Eeeee!!! What could it be?!?
SB821 in Community Conversations, on July 30, 2015 at 11:24 AM

I accidentally caught a glimpse of my fiancé's Gmail inbox and saw an email between him and our DOC titled "surprise for [me] at the wedding." I'm good about not peeking, so I don't know what it is....

Did Anyone Else Write Their Own Ceremony?
SB821 in Community Conversations, on July 28, 2015 at 12:14 PM

Fiance and I just finished the second draft of ours, and I'm SO EXCITED. I'm loving how personal it is, and it's more representative of the kind of marriage we want. Did anyone else write theirs?...

To Veil or Not to Veil?
SB821 in Wedding Attire, on July 16, 2015 at 10:58 AM

I've always imagined myself getting married with a birdcage veil, and I have one I love (pictured below). My dress goes perfectly with it, and it matches the classic glam courthouse ceremony we're...

REALLY belated introduction
SB821 in Community Conversations, on July 15, 2015 at 11:17 AM

Hey everyone - sorry I never did this before. I was worried about putting too many details about myself/the wedding on the internets, but now I'm too excited about the fact that I'm getting married...

Help me Brainstorm!
SB821 in Planning, on July 10, 2015 at 12:02 PM

As a surprise, I'm getting my fiancé and I's wedding bands engraved. His will say "bises," and mine "besos," which are French and Spanish for "kisses," respectively, and the text/note/email sign-offs...

I thought my friends and family were above this crap, but nope. NONE OF US ARE SAFE. A woman who I apparently met when I an infant just facebook-messaged me asking if she could come to my wedding....

Lemme start by saying that this is my amazing photographer, but WTF is this styled shoot OMG
SB821 in Community Conversations, on June 25, 2015 at 11:39 AM

I get that styled shoots are not actually weddings, and in many ways are not even supposed to be POSSIBLE in actual weddings. But COME ON. How insane is this shoot? Oh, let me count the ways....

Uh, Southwest is Freaking Me Out
SB821 in Planning, on June 18, 2015 at 4:58 PM

I have to travel with my wedding gown when I fly out for my wedding in August. I called Southwest to ask about their policies when it comes to dresses, and how the staff tries to accommodate them, and...

For those of you with planners (not just DOCs)...
SB821 in Planning, on June 17, 2015 at 10:38 AM

What did you DO for the last two months? I didn't hire a full-service planner exactly, but our florists are actually event designers and they do everything - all the paper products, the flowers,...

Did you?
SB821 in Etiquette and Advice, on June 10, 2015 at 9:57 AM

Did you get your fiancé a gift at the time of your engagement? When we discussed getting engaged, I read up on the history of the engagement ring, which was to show the world that a woman was "spoken...

The best wedding money I will ever spend
SB821 in Planning, on June 2, 2015 at 8:59 AM

I am teary just thinking about this! When I was little, my sister and I had a nanny until I was about ten. She became family; she came with us on vacations, and I was a part of her family too. With...

How Do You Handle the Guilt?
SB821 in Etiquette and Advice, on May 26, 2015 at 1:53 PM

I went to my grandparents' 60th anniversary party this weekend, and saw all of my dad's 11 brothers and sisters/their families. It was great to see my aunts/uncles/cousins, and even sweeter that they...
