FH and I are being delightfully clichè and want to visit Maui for our honeymoon. We were hoping to find something all inclusive but it seems like there are only a handful of resorts that are all...

I'm having a really hard time finding a one piece bathing suit that offers enough support! I want to have one nice swimsuit for the summer and it's really bumming me out that there aren't that many...

I'm trying to find a super detailed, extra comprehensive planning checklist, possibly something that breaks it down by weeks or months and has sub-tasks. So instead of it just saying "plan how your...

Rules and requirements to be a BM/MOH: 1. Purchase or rent some article of clothing as described by bride. 2. Put on said article of clothing on a specific date. 3. Walk down aisle. 4. Stand next to...

If you could go back in time to when you first started planning your wedding what would be some advice you give yourself? I would tell myself to over budget! I keep revisiting my budget and my...

I hired a day of coordinator through a company she owns that will also be my officiant and DJ. They have good reviews and I got a really good vibe from her when we met in person. I'm paying...

What an episode! Of the episodes this season I felt this was one of the relatively happiest ones (well, as far as GOT goes). Some general thoughts: - I'm usually pretty annoyed by Sam and Gilly but...

I'm using the app so I apologize if this has been posted before! Is anyone changing up their beauty/skincare routine in months leading up to their wedding? I've started taking biotin to get my hair to...

FH can't wrap his head around the concept and thinks I'm being frivolous for wanting to thank the bridal party with a gift. I've tried explaining it a million different ways but we just can't see eye...

Hello beautiful, majestic March brides. We're just 9ish months until our big day! Where is everyone with their planning? Is time flying for you as it is for me? Yesterday I realized I only have 16...

Has anyone been able to find some decently priced (under $1.50 each) plate chargers? I've tried Amazon, eBay, Craigslist, Ali express and all the major store and still nothing! My wallet is...

Most of my family is in Italy and though they aren't likely to come, I would still like to invite them. My family is huge and there are many aunts and uncles with 3-5 kids. They're all between the...

I'm getting married at a beautiful venue about 1.5 hrs away from my home. Unfortunately, they only do rehearsals on Thursday afternoons so most of my out of town guests (and a large chunk of my...

I'm blessed to have some of the most wonderful, caring, and helpful ladies as my bridesmaids on my wedding day. A few of them are getting really antsy and want to help make/plan/do things but I'm...

I've been playing with the idea of having escort cards that are both cute and useful, so I was thinking of having the escort cards somehow also be the favors. I could easily just attach a cute tag to...

After following the great Cash Bar Thread slaughter of 2016, my mind started racing about all the things in my wedding that I plan to do that could be considered a faux pas. While I'm not planning on...

Like most brides, I'm trying to drop a few (read: 50) pounds for my wedding. I've already lost 13 and I'm very pleased with my progress. I'm starting to notice the weight loss everywhere and my...

I thought it could be fun to share what will make/did make our weddings unique and personal to us! For example, FH and I love coffee so instead of a cocktail hour we're having a cappuccino hour! We...
