Silverlava in Etiquette and Advice, on January 19, 2017 at 12:32 AM

(So not sure if these are still even a thing, but I got five stars! When I first joined I saw a lot of celebration posts about reaching five stars, but I'm not sure anyone does them anymore. Anyways,...

How to note adult-only reception on website?
Silverlava in Etiquette and Advice, on January 17, 2017 at 5:44 PM

I won't be putting it on the invitations, nor the STD's, but I do want guests to be aware long before they try to RSVP that they won't be able to bring their children. It is a destination wedding for...

Guest Book DIY
Silverlava in Do It Yourself, on January 15, 2017 at 7:50 PM

So maybe you've seen this guest book idea on pinterest, like me. However, when I went to see how much it would cost to buy, I found out it was something like $80! So we whipped up this little...

Exception to the No-Child rule?
Silverlava in Etiquette and Advice, on January 11, 2017 at 5:22 PM

Our wedding will have no children. However, my mom just texted me to say I need to add a specific child to the invite. This child is a teenager, but she is autistic and violent. (Screaming fits,...

Tasting or no tasting
Silverlava in Planning, on January 11, 2017 at 11:47 AM

As a bit of a background, our venue is all-inclusive. However, rather than spent $145pp, we went with the a la carte menu, which works out to $60pp, and we do our own florals, cake, etc....

Bridesmaid question?
Silverlava in Etiquette and Advice, on January 9, 2017 at 3:55 PM

I asked my bridesmaid to go look at dresses at David's bridal sometime before the 17th, as they are having a sale. The only reason it matters to me is because I'm paying for them, and if I can save...

Can't access WW guest list UPDATE: clear cache & cookies
Silverlava in Etiquette and Advice, on January 6, 2017 at 7:58 PM

For some reason WW seems to be broken? I can't access my guest list. Every time I do, it logs me out and won't allow me to log back in. Anyone know where I can report this bug? Update: I cleared my...

SWR: Dark Matte Lipstick (Paging JoRocka)
Silverlava in Wedding Attire, on January 5, 2017 at 11:22 AM

So I tried out a dark red lip the other day, and I absolutely love it! However, it rubs off super easy and isn't as matte as I would like. It was a cheap lipstick and I got it on a whim. Does anyone...

My Dress is in! WAY ahead of schedule (excitement, not a question)
Silverlava in Wedding Attire, on January 4, 2017 at 5:00 PM

I ordered my dress Dec 10th and less than a month later, I get a call from my bridal salon that my dress is in! I'm just floored--it's already made & delivered, even over the holidays! I can't wait to...

Tux/Suit Rental companies
Silverlava in Wedding Attire, on January 4, 2017 at 3:20 PM

I need to find a place to have the groomsmen rent suits from. The wedding will be in Massachusetts, but all of the groomsmen are in Minnesota and Iowa, so I need to find a chain of some kind. I've...

Feeling at a stand-still
Silverlava in Planning, on January 3, 2017 at 7:09 AM

Everything is so much *waiting* right now... Waiting for international orders to clear customs, waiting for STDs to be printed, waiting for "the right time" to do the next item on the checklist. Is it...

Silverlava in Planning, on January 1, 2017 at 7:57 AM

We need to start picking soncs for specific parts of the wedding and I'm wondering if there's a list somewhere of the specific songs I need to pick (father-daughter dance, first dance, walking down...

MOB bouquet?
Silverlava in Wedding Attire, on January 1, 2017 at 2:37 AM

My mom mentioned to me that she wanted to hold a bouquet instead of wearing a corsage or something at the wedding. Has this been done before at weddings? I've never heard of it, but evidently she got...

If you DIY your veil...
Silverlava in Do It Yourself, on January 1, 2017 at 7:53 AM

...be careful to keep the blood on the inside of your body. I've literally been sewing since I was ten and never accidentally stuck myself, but of course as I'm attaching the veil to the comb, I wind...

Zazzle is amazing. Any other great vendors out there?
Silverlava in Planning, on December 30, 2016 at 4:10 PM

So... I don't say this much about a company, but I friggen love Zazzle. Somehow in my process of ordering Save-the-dates, the date on the card got switched up, and thus when I received the product it...

Mismatched groomsmen?
Silverlava in Wedding Attire, on December 23, 2016 at 11:49 PM

Has anyone seen this done before? We wanted the wedding attire to be a light gray suit, so it is pretty informal.

Trouble with Target Registry
Silverlava in Etiquette and Advice, on December 21, 2016 at 9:25 PM

I'm trying to finalize my target registry and when getting the link for guests to view, I saw there was a gift card added. I don't want a target gift card, as I'd prefer cash if people want to go that...

Hopelessly lost on wedding jewelry
Silverlava in Wedding Attire, on December 20, 2016 at 9:59 PM

I am not a big jewelry person, so I have no idea where to start when shopping for necklaces and earrings. Anybody have pictures of what theyve chosen? I'm having so much trouble picturing what might...

What happens if you aren't there to sign for a package?
Silverlava in Wedding Attire, on December 17, 2016 at 2:33 AM

I ordered my FH's ring last month, and the shop said they would ship it Dec 21st. I work from home, so any day they shipped it, I could just make sure to be in the house all day to receive it. Lo and...
