I'm a second timer, after having been widowed in 2012. Never thought I'd find love again, but I met an amazing guy on eHarmony and we're planning our wedding. I'm a librarian, gamer, mom, baker, and love theater and learning new things.

Last night we did or tasting for our dinner options with our venue. We tried 4 dishes, a chicken, a pork, a vegan, and a beef. The chicken was the only one gluten free. We had four tasters, me, my FH,...
We postponed our May 25 wedding to October 11. I'm not too bothered by it other than we were under 60 days and are now back to nearly 200. Plus all our spring stuff isn't going to work in the fall,...
I love this forum, it's so positive and reassuring... I thought I'd give a shout out to my fellow older brides after doing a search and not seeing any posts since last year about us! I'm 44 years old...
Is there some way to delete guests who are no longer coming? I can't figure it out. Thanks!
Just need to let loose with all this! It's all worked it, but TL/DR: My entire bridal party quit, but I fixed it :-) When my FH proposed to me, I immediately had a vision of how I wanted my bridal...
We are cat people and these are my three cats. The black and white one is Stepstool, named because she is CONSTANTLY underfoot. Her brother is Nermal and loves to sleep on his back like this all the...
Our wedding is in 4 months (shout out to my May girls, hey girls!). My FH’s sister is VERY child-centered and whatever her girls want is what happens. My FH is generally a peacemaker and afraid to...
I’m getting married in May and I’m thinking of taking the entire month of December off from doing wedding stuff. All the big things are done except a florist, and the holidays are stressful enough as...
Could you possibly create a NYC message board, and then one for the rest of New York State? The city posts far outweigh the state-wide posts and make it largely useless to those of us not getting...
My FH was so excited when we got a 50% off our invitations discount. He wanted to put in all the information himself. I looked over everything, and thought it looked ok, but they arrived yesterday,...
We went today for our second cake tasting. It was so much fun! Our first one was at a bakery, this one was at a private baker’s home. I told my FH that he could design and choose the whole thing. He...
This afternoon my FH (or I guess H now??) eloped. We got married in the library where I work by the local magistrate. We live in the middle of nowhere so the only celebratory cakes we could get were...
In just under 4 hours, my FH and I are eloping, seven months before our wedding... We didn't want to wait anymore, so I called a friend who is a magistrate and he's meeting me at my job site (a...
I will start by saying that I know these shoes aren’t for everyone. But among my family and friends, my love of my Crocs is well known. When we announced our engagement, everyone started sending me...
My FH and I were stuck in a huge shopping mall yesterday while we waited for my girls to finish their shopping spree... In just under 3 hours, we purchased our wedding bands, toasting flutes, his...
I’m so excited that our save the dates are going out. We got them from Shutterfly and I think they’re so pretty. When we got them, we just started giggling. Made it seem so real! It’s the second most...
My mom is extremely ill with dementia and unable to attend our wedding. My dad will be there with his lady friend. He is quite clear that he's never marrying her, but they have been together a decade...
Last night, my FH and I finally sat down with some wedding planning and budgeting sheets and starting working out our best estimate for what our wedding is going to cost. When we got engaged in April,...
I'm a bit nervous to be getting married on Memorial Day, BUT fives are my lucky number, and I feel quite confident getting married on 5/25 will be a good thing. Plus, we have lots of out-of-towners we...
Shout out to all the second time brides who are taking a chance with their hearts again! I'm a second timer, my husband Mike passed away 7 years ago, and I feel beyond lucky that I have met the most...
