Went to DSW today and tried on a ton of shoes, a lot where cute, but I didn't love any of them. here are a few i tried on today. The problem with some of them is they would cover the tattoo on my...
Was the service good? nice lanterns? we are looking for small ones to hang on the chairs to line the aisle, planning on ordering white and yellow.
With all this budget talk i thought it would be interesting to see the break down of everyone's wedding. That way we can get an idea of what everyone else is spending their 5k or 25k budget on. Tell...
Yay! though we forgot to change some of the labels (a couple got married, another we spelled wrong) so we just hand wrote them. I am really hoping that they don't weigh to much. FH keeps laughing at...
Card box/cage/tower/etc! We decided to do a large vase for cards- similar to this picture, but ours wont have the flowers on top, and we will probably use the etching paint to write our names and the...
As ya'll know, we are doing an open house style reception is FH's home state 2 weeks after our reception so we can invite a ton of his extended family, his mother's church friends, and our friend who...
I was just thinking about this while packing up all our crap to move yesterday- Are you planning to buy things off your registries that you don't get as gifts? Some things I don't think I would buy,...
I had a busy busy day today full of "hurry up and wait" We got up early to drive 2 hours to my FBIL's wedding, but we got there extra early so we went out to breakfast and hung out at FFIL's house. We...
So I was writing a thank you card to send to our photographer (they sent us a cute little bath and body works gift set) last night and my FH said to me, "you know we are just going to give everyone...
That I like to look at other peoples registries? It's funny how much you can learn about someone by what they registered for. I keep seeing things that I forgot to add to mine- like a nice pitcher, or...
So today was a long day- woke up early to finish getting my presentation finished, drove 2 hours to present (it was a very small crowd- but when are academic conferences ever busy?) and then drove...
I started birth control like a week and a half ago because my periods are from hell, and I'm trying to make it so i won't be on my period during the wedding. But the BC has been making me super...
We can bring all our own drinks for our venue- but we must have a licensed bartender to serve the alcohol. We found a service that is $50 an hour, plus 20% tip and $15 travel fee. They...
Hey all- I see a lot of posts talking about religious things (premarital classes/meetings with clergy, different symbols of god in marriage, etc) and I'm just wondering anyone else not religious at...
Our current plan is to have an Italian inspired meal because it was the cheapest option. $10.50 a person it would include Caesar salad bread sticks fresh fruit grilled or fresh veggies (haven't...
Do they actually come with the JVL Tungsten inscription that it shows on the website? We like the rings, and for the price with the code it can't be beat- but we don't really like the inscription.
Though there wasn't a big turn out (a whole 5 of us- me, my FMIL, FSIL, friend of FMIL, and a friend of mine) it was still fun. We played a game, opened gifts, and then they used scraps of fabric from...
And only 4 people have RSVP'd. 3 yeses and a no. Out of 13 people invited. I know because it was planned about 2 and a half weeks before people can't take work off and such- but you could at least go...
I'm curious- are your BM getting their hair and make-up professionally done? Whose paying for it? Are you requiring it? What if some do and some don't? I can't afford to pay for all my BM, but if I...
I keep remembering things I need to budget for, so my budget keeps going up. I hate online tools because they never have specifics, only broad topics. This is what I have so far- what am I missing?...
