Bridal Shower fomo -- anyone else?
starsinwaves in Parties and Events, on April 27, 2018 at 11:55 AM

I'm not really looking for advice here, just to see if anyone is in the same position. I know I'm being a little ridiculous but I want to get this off my chest. I've always hated bridal showers, I...

starsinwaves in Style and Décor, on June 21, 2018 at 3:44 PM

Hi, I'm hoping you all can help me out with plans for what to do with the altar. This has seriously been stressing me out, which is ridiculous for something so minor. So here's the deal, with pictures...

starsinwaves in Registry, on April 19, 2018 at 3:33 PM

For anyone who's registered with Amazon: - Is there any way to remove the gift card they automatically put there? There's no remove item button like there is for everything else and I really hate that...

Are there limits on where you can put addresses on envelopes?
starsinwaves in Do It Yourself, on June 1, 2018 at 5:06 PM

So this is kind of a dumb question, but Google is not being very helpful. I'm having (way too much) fun with addressing my envelopes, and I'm wondering if there's an issue with using up too much space...

Bridal shower ideas!
starsinwaves in Parties and Events, on May 29, 2018 at 12:07 PM

Looking for ideas for things to do at my bridal shower. Every search for "bridal shower games" turns up the same boring, mostly lame-sounding games, no matter how "unique" or "fun" they claim to be....

It appears to be legit, but I was curious if anyone has used them before. If you have, would you recommend it?

starsinwaves in Registry, on March 7, 2018 at 11:23 AM

Anyone else register for some totally unnecessary stuff that you would never buy yourself? I'd love to see everyone's quirky registry items. I decided to do a registry on Uncommon Goods for a few...

So I’ve posted about our room block problem before, but basically the resort where we’re having our wedding makes the couple guarantee the rooms. We had to put down a deposit and if the rooms don’t...

starsinwaves in Style and Décor, on February 23, 2018 at 1:00 PM

Hi everyone. Our event company quoted us $17 each to rent basic colored tablecloths, and I know we can buy them from an online company much cheaper, then sell them after the wedding. Is there a...
