Votive Candle Holders
Suzie in Style and Décor, on January 21, 2020 at 9:31 PM

Does anyone have a good source for buying votive candle holders in bulk? And possibly votive candles. I’d like about 3-4 per table, and we will likely have 10-12 tables, and the ones I’ve found so far...

Weight Loss After Ordering Dress
Suzie in Wedding Attire, on March 2, 2020 at 8:01 PM

More of a panic and rant... I ordered my dress in September true to size, and have since lost 30 pounds, and counting (yay!). I plan on losing at least 30 more by our wedding day (hopefully), but am...

Wedding Planning Obsessions
Suzie in Community Conversations, on February 3, 2020 at 6:11 PM

What are your wedding planning obsessions?! For me it’s WW forums (of course lol), and watching Four Weddings and Say Yes to the Dress. I also buy wedding magazines everywhere I find them, so much...

J&j Party
Suzie in Parties and Events, on February 4, 2020 at 8:44 PM

Did you have a J&J to raise money for your wedding? FH and I disagree on this idea. He had one for his first wedding, and he said they broke even and doesn’t think it’s worth it. So many people I...

Charge for Cake Tasting?
Suzie in Planning, on January 25, 2020 at 10:11 PM

I spoke with a local baker about cake tastings, and she said they charge $25 for one. I found this really off putting, and it makes me not even want to try them. We went to a group cake...

Changing your last name? Why/why not?
Suzie in Etiquette and Advice, on October 7, 2019 at 8:37 PM

Hey everyone. I am on the fence about whether or not to change my name. FH is not pushing it at all, and in fact is encouraging me not to. His last name is long and complicated, no one pronounces it...

How far out were your shower and bach?
Suzie in Parties and Events, on January 13, 2020 at 11:04 AM

How far out from your wedding did you/will you have your shower and bach party? Two of my BMs live in different states, but are both available to come up mid June. My MOH asked if I would want to do...

Cancelling Friend as dj
Suzie in Planning, on January 6, 2020 at 7:52 PM

I have a friend I’ve known for 15 years who DJs on the side, but it’s not his full-time job. When we got engaged we spoke with him about being our DJ, and he offered us a wicked discount. I am now...

Sandals St. Lucia or Jamaica
Suzie in Honeymoon, on December 29, 2019 at 2:40 PM

We are looking into Sandals resorts in either St. Lucia or Jamaica. Hawaii was my dream, but it’s too expensive. We heard St. Lucia is the “Hawaii of the Caribbean” so def has that appeal. Has anyone...

Suzie in Do It Yourself, on November 18, 2019 at 9:01 PM

Has anyone used Etsy to download a digital template for Save the Dates and invitations? Wondering how they came out, if so. FH works at the print shop where we work, so we will be printing our own to...

Suzie in Fitness and Health, on November 10, 2019 at 5:29 PM

Hawaii Honeymoon
Suzie in Honeymoon, on October 29, 2019 at 8:38 PM

I have always dreamed of honeymooning in Hawaii, but upon quick look, it sounds like it’s going to be super expensive! We spoke to a travel agent who said a honeymoon-grade hotel for a week would cost...

Florist- how much leeway did you give?
Suzie in Planning, on October 10, 2019 at 8:46 PM

We had our first florist consultation today, and overall I think it went well. The woman was super friendly, and seemed to get the overall vision I am looking for. My concern is that I went in with a...

Florist - when to hire
Suzie in Planning, on October 7, 2019 at 8:09 PM

Hi all! I am wondering when everyone hired their florist. I called one place that told me they don’t meet with brides until 4-5 months before the date, which seems so late! She said they need swatches...

Suzie in Family and Relationships, on August 25, 2019 at 8:53 PM

Hi all. This is more of a feelings post, rather than a question. My best friend is one of my bridesmaids, and is moving across country this week. She plans on coming back for the wedding (October...
