Do things cost more for 9-10-11 or just hard to book?
Tara in Planning, on February 22, 2011 at 9:11 PM

FH thinks that the 13th is unlucky even though it's not a Friday. So since I have to change the venue anyway, I'm thinking of trying for 9-10-11. Do vendors charge more for this date, or is it just...

RSVP envelopes - to stamp or not to stamp? That is my question...
Tara in Etiquette and Advice, on February 22, 2011 at 1:15 AM

Customarily you would stamp the RSVP envelope....but if we're wanting people to visit our wedding website and RSVP there, would we then NOT stamp the RSVP envelope, or stamp them all anyway?

How much do I need to lose? (pix)
Tara in Wedding Attire, on February 19, 2011 at 2:34 AM

I have 6 months to fit into my dress, not trying to lose that much, but I'm ordering a size that doesn't close yet. The sample I tried on was a zipper, but I tried 2 similar dresses (same designer) in...

Mom and I are driving 2 hours plus traffic (cough!) on Friday to check out two dresses. One I tried on but was too big, the other isn't any closer to us at all, and I want to try both on. Need to make...

When do you pay for the venue?
Tara in Planning, on February 9, 2011 at 1:12 AM

I have tentatively booked my ceremony venue by back-and-forth email, but need to call the woman to "begin finalization" tomorrow. The quote she gave me is 3 times what the price was last year at the...
