Please assure me that wanting to add last minute guests is not okay!
SimpleSeamstress in Etiquette and Advice, on May 27, 2015 at 4:56 PM

So I posted before about my guest list guilt. There were people that I am not as close to that I would have wanted to invite if I was able to. Well I'm exactly a month out from my wedding and FH just...

Guest List Guilt?
SimpleSeamstress in Planning, on May 22, 2015 at 12:30 PM

So cutting the guest list is a necessary part of wedding planning, but sometimes it can get pretty awkward. Have you felt guilty over/regretted any of your cuts? Are there people that you added back...

SimpleSeamstress in Planning, on May 23, 2015 at 12:33 PM

Hi! I decided to provide my guests with wine tags at the bar with the hope that they will use them to identify their drinks. I want to make a sign that explains that the tags are for. Any thoughts on...

Wedding Welcome Sign anyone?
SimpleSeamstress in Style and Décor, on May 19, 2015 at 8:31 PM

Is anyone doing (or did) a wedding welcome sign at the entrance to their ceremony? I kind of want one, but am starting to think that it's pretty extraneous after visiting Kinko's today and finding out...

Bustiers....what are you wearing underneath?
SimpleSeamstress in Wedding Attire, on May 14, 2015 at 10:42 PM

I need to purchase my undergarments before my fitting. My dress has a fairly low back and lace sleeves. I am fairly busty at a D cup. What are you wearing? Bra or bustier? Where did you purchase? I am...

The usual (and shallow) ugly chair debacle
SimpleSeamstress in Style and Décor, on May 2, 2015 at 12:14 AM

So I was planning on renting white wooden folding chairs for aesthetics purposes as my parish hall has these comfortable and new but not very attractive black chairs. My mom thinks I'm silly and just...

Adding Bagpiper to Ceremony!!
SimpleSeamstress in Planning, on May 9, 2015 at 3:10 PM

So I had this idea to incorporate a bagpiper into my wedding as I did competitive Highland Dancing growing up and spent a lot of time around bagpipers. I felt shy asking my church music coordinator...

SimpleSeamstress in Planning, on May 6, 2015 at 4:06 PM

What do you still have to do? I feel like I've been less productive since I've gotten my invitations out. I still have to: -plan my ceremony with my priest -make and print programs (can't until I plan...

Hi! My sister has been shopping for dresses for the bridal party and the flower girl. Which combination do you think looks best? She found the white flower girl dress with the flower at a second hand...

Did you go into it with any expectations? Did anyone have a disappointing experience?

Anyone else needing to accommodate a second language during your wedding?
SimpleSeamstress in Planning, on April 30, 2015 at 6:23 PM

If so, how are you doing it? Many of my FH's family are Spanish speakers and don't understand English. Our priest unfortunately isn't bilingual (we are church members and have a relationship...
