FFS, people! Another RSVP related rant.
UnderTheJuneWillows in Planning, on May 21, 2016 at 12:01 AM

8 days to Due Date. I addressed the fricken things how we wanted, and I kind of figured that some of our friends would RSVP with their kids even if we didn't say "and kids" or "Smith Family" on the...

Oy. This is when it starts to get stressful- minirant of my feelings of being overwhelmed
UnderTheJuneWillows in Planning, on May 20, 2016 at 3:15 PM

Wedding is still a smidge over a month off. We are getting close to having our final count in (D-day is the 28th). We have 31 households that haven't responded and only 5 declines. I have been...

Maybe time to rethink that foreign honeymoon?
UnderTheJuneWillows in Honeymoon, on May 19, 2016 at 11:31 AM

Between the TSA fiasco at major airports, turbulence that has injured passengers on flights, and now the disappearance of a plane from Paris to Egypt, I am starting to wonder if I should rethink our...

I got an email from WW yesterday telling me I got a $5 Starbucks gift card and to keep up the good work (huh?). I just redeemed it and transferred the $5 to my Starbucks app. Sweet!

PSA: Name Change
UnderTheJuneWillows in Planning, on May 15, 2016 at 1:28 PM

I got an email from David's Bridal about a partner company of theirs. It is called easynamechange.com and you can do the name change process through them (including govt docs) and online. All the...

Super Bummed and not looking forward to the awkward
UnderTheJuneWillows in Planning, on May 14, 2016 at 12:17 AM

Both my parents are deceased and my sister and I have NEVER gotten along. I do not expect her to attend (honestly, I am very ok with that). With that being said, all my cousins are 15 yrs older than...

Finally excited about cake!
UnderTheJuneWillows in Community Conversations, on May 11, 2016 at 3:23 PM

I have not been excited about cake. I figured we would have one because that is what you do at weddings. I really did not care if it was pretty and whatnot. FH and I are non-traditional, not at all...

NWR: what makes you SMH @ FH?
UnderTheJuneWillows in Community Conversations, on May 10, 2016 at 6:08 PM

FH loves to garden. We live in a residential neighborhood on a lot that is .14acre. We hope to buy property in the next couple years. We do have a community garden where you can rent garden boxes. FH...

Advocare 24 Day Challenge?
UnderTheJuneWillows in Fitness and Health, on April 6, 2016 at 10:50 PM

First, yes, I know. Eat less/better, exercise more. However, I have lost my mojo and need to hit reset. I am actually a very active person and I do know how to eat well. My life at the moment is so...

Got our marriage license today... Short and sweet
UnderTheJuneWillows in Community Conversations, on May 9, 2016 at 5:27 PM

It took us name, age, address, parent names, SSNs, birthdate and location, $55 and picture ID. It is funny, while at the County Clerk's office, I had to get a copy of my divorce decree in order...

Sorry for the 2nd post today. Spin off on MOH VS BM..got me thinking. Maybe no label equals no drama?
UnderTheJuneWillows in Etiquette and Advice, on May 8, 2016 at 1:01 PM

I have been reading a lot about drama with who the MOH is, whether or not the bride's choice upsets anyone, etc. Also, I've read about "duties" and the general consensus is that the BPs only...

Help with BM dress accessories
UnderTheJuneWillows in Wedding Attire, on May 8, 2016 at 12:05 PM

I told my BMs that they could pick whatever dress they wanted as long as it was short, lace, and lighter in color (summer/spring). They ended up all choosing the same dress and 3 of them chose ice...

KWR, Def FH related - sticky issue
UnderTheJuneWillows in Etiquette and Advice, on May 5, 2016 at 3:22 PM

FH HATES my last name, primarily because it is my ex-husband's last name. I totally get. Completely. However, it was my last name for 16 years. I've had the same email address for 16 years as well,...

Q: Wines...around the world..and FREE
UnderTheJuneWillows in Etiquette and Advice, on May 4, 2016 at 4:24 PM

I have thought about posting this question lots of times, but I honestly can't remember if I have or not. To start..we are having a low-key, informal wedding. Outdoor, food truck, photo booth, lawn...

You just can't make it up- little rant at end about etiquette
UnderTheJuneWillows in Community Conversations, on May 1, 2016 at 8:02 PM

I went to my sister's Reno wedding. I RSVP'd to her FB message invite. We skipped the no-host, wedding day brunch because we could eat cheaper than the $24.95 each at our hotel. We went to the...

Think it can be done??
UnderTheJuneWillows in Honeymoon, on April 28, 2016 at 6:23 PM

My FH LOVES the 4th of July. It is his favorite day of the year. The problem, we will be on our honeymoon in Fiji on the 4th this year (which will actually be their 5th when it is the 4th here). We...

Thank You Card help.
UnderTheJuneWillows in Etiquette and Advice, on April 25, 2016 at 11:18 AM

Yes, I am sure this has been asked, but I can't search topics on my phone. Please help a girl out. Our wedding is 60 days away and we have already started receiving gifts (of the monetary sort). Do I...

A chuckle about my first two RSVPs
UnderTheJuneWillows in Community Conversations, on April 21, 2016 at 10:23 AM

I sent my invites out Saturday night. I got my first two RSVPs back yesterday. The first one was a decline, but there was no name on it. Thankfully, they wrote a reason on the bottom stating that they...

Horrible that I hope for declines?
UnderTheJuneWillows in Planning, on April 18, 2016 at 12:34 PM

We sent out invites and should start to see some RSVPs soon. Let me first say that we truly do want every guest we invited (156...36 more than our 120 hope) to attend and we are still within...

Just to make FH happy....what have you done?
UnderTheJuneWillows in Community Conversations, on April 16, 2016 at 7:33 PM

What have you done for no other reason than to make FH happy? I am terrified of bees. If it buzzes, I run. However, FH is a beekeeper on the side. Ironic! Today, I put on a bee suit and helped him...
