Hey all! Just finished making some modifications to my centerpieces based on feedback here... I'm thinking I'll add another bowl to each setting (so it's more even...) but otherwise I'm liking the way...

Processional with Divorced Parents?
ShellyZ in Etiquette and Advice, on August 17, 2017 at 4:47 PM

So my parents haven't spoken in over 20 years, and I grew up largely with my mom. I thought originally I didn't want to have my dad walk me down the aisle, partially because we're not super close (but...

Centerpiece trial
ShellyZ in Do It Yourself, on August 10, 2017 at 8:16 PM

Just did a trial run of my centerpieces! What do you think? Should I add or change anything? 1. Ignore the wrinkled bedsheet table cloth - just using for a sense of color. Lol 2. There will be more...

Soooo looking for advice and/or other brides in the same boat. My parents divorced when I was really young. I don't have a bad relationship with my dad, but we're also not terribly close. He typically...

I'm all but finished! I really enjoyed this project and almost wish I was having bridesmaids so I could do more. I think post wedding I might make these as gifts/for home decor! I really disliked...

The Sola Bouquet Begins...
ShellyZ in Do It Yourself, on June 30, 2017 at 8:45 PM

Hi everyone! I've mentioned here earlier my problems with florists in my town. Well, they got compounded with the store closing. They still offered to do my order, but when I asked where I would be...

Picked my wedding ring!
ShellyZ in Wedding Attire, on June 9, 2017 at 4:37 PM

Just had to share. It was so hard to pick out since they didn't have a lot of bands in rose gold, so I had to imagine how it would look! I'm happy with what I landed on and am happy I can wear it with...

ShellyZ in Etiquette and Advice, on June 5, 2017 at 7:19 PM

Any and all advice appreciated. My parents have been divorced since I was 3, and probably haven't spoken to each other since I was able to convey messages for them. My dad is fairly bitter, my mom has...
