2 dress ladies... a question about photos
Selena in Wedding Attire, on May 7, 2019 at 9:37 PM

So the ubiquitous wedding dress photo. Did you take photos if both? choose one? I love both of my dresses and after seeing a couple of bams, I am conflicted about this now

I just got a save the date back. We mailed them March 1. This is only a few towns over. This family moved in April, and has mail being forwarded... It makes me wonder what else us list out there.

Selena in Do It Yourself, on April 19, 2019 at 1:14 PM

Selena in Wedding Attire, on April 10, 2019 at 4:42 PM

This is so dumb, but thought you guys might relate... I love the lighting in my work elevator... It makes my ring sparkle so much... "Oh don't mind me, I am just staring at my ring"... "No, it isn't...

Selena in Wedding Reception, on April 7, 2019 at 6:27 PM

I keep waffling on what to do about table numbers. My reception is very elegant and classic. But I can't figure out how to do table numbers.
