Wrong Address...
The Polka Dot Queen © in Planning, on July 12, 2012 at 12:32 PM

So I JUST realized I have the wrong address for the reception venue on my invitations. UGH! Oh well, at least I found out because I was about to print directions to put in the back of the church so...

The Polka Dot Queen © in Community Conversations, on July 9, 2012 at 3:13 PM

Ok, so a bunch of you said you'd help me with a playlist, well, I'm cashing that favour in! What should I include on my playlist? We want to dance all night. No country, no Britney Spears, Justin...

OMG I actually did it
The Polka Dot Queen © in Planning, on July 7, 2012 at 3:05 PM

Apparently in the last half hour or so I grew some balls, because I finally kicked my MOH out of the wedding (just a week before!) She's being majorly stressing me out since the end of May. She's sent...

crazy straw center pieces
The Polka Dot Queen © in Do It Yourself, on June 27, 2012 at 1:40 PM

Here are the final product of the center pieces. I like that they're whimsical, our wedding is definitely not formal, and if guests want the straws, they are easy to just take. As well, it didn't cost...

I hate that whenever I am actually on the computer, which is rare since I'm so busy moving/doing wedding stuff/job hunting, that no one is ever in chat! So come chat! http://tinychat.com/wwbrides

BM dresses are in!!
The Polka Dot Queen © in Community Conversations, on June 18, 2012 at 1:30 PM

I'm so excited to actually see how they work/look in person! I think they're a little harder to work with than normal convertible dresses because the straps are two layers of material, and therefore...

The Polka Dot Queen © in Community Conversations, on June 3, 2012 at 4:49 PM

thank god that's over
The Polka Dot Queen © in Planning, on June 2, 2012 at 11:11 PM

So I had my shower today. It had been major stress on me, bridemaids bickering back and forth about stupid stuff and putting me in the middle, it was 'semi-formal' which my aunt (who didn't even end...

Rant - is it too late to just elope?
The Polka Dot Queen © in Planning, on May 29, 2012 at 9:28 PM

I give in, I officially hate weddings, wedding planning, and all that goes with it and I just want this to be over with!! My aunt called tonight, apparently her sister (also my aunt) called her...

Book Club
The Polka Dot Queen © in Community Conversations, on May 18, 2012 at 2:55 PM

I know it's not really mine to post about, but there was talk of a WW book club, a book was picked (50 shades of grey) and now nothing? Should we set up a time to talk about it? I know someone else...

The Polka Dot Queen © in Do It Yourself, on May 13, 2012 at 6:04 PM

So I was on etsy looking for some tape (I'm making a feather pen for signing the wedding license, and I'm sure I'll find other projects to use it for as well, maybe pew markers?) There are two sets...

Is This Rude?
The Polka Dot Queen © in Community Conversations, on May 11, 2012 at 9:21 PM

So there's this really cool girl, and I invited her to my bachelorette party, but I'm not sure I want to invite her to the wedding... it's two extra places, because of course then I have to invite her...

Best Man rant UPDATE
The Polka Dot Queen © in Planning, on April 30, 2012 at 6:46 PM

So some of you might remember my rant the other day about our MIA Best Man. Well, now we have no best man. He told FH he wouldn't be back for the wedding today. I'm really sad, because I know it meant...

The Polka Dot Queen © in Etiquette and Advice, on April 28, 2012 at 7:04 PM

Ok, I need help on my reception card wording. Does this sound ok? Is there anything I should add to it? How can I make it more fun, or should I make it more fun? Desserts and dancing to immediately...

The Polka Dot Queen © in Etiquette and Advice, on April 26, 2012 at 7:18 PM

Invitation Overlay
The Polka Dot Queen © in Do It Yourself, on April 19, 2012 at 8:11 PM

I'm doing up our invitations and they came with this weird overlay thing. FH made an excellent suggestion of putting a picture or something on it isn't just a total waste of space. Trouble is, I can't...
