Invitation wording --which is best? (pics included)
vicky in Planning, on September 12, 2013 at 6:07 PM

Ok so I get that the wording "Mr & Mrs. request...marriage of their daughter...to...son of Mr. & Mrs...." is more appropriate, but the focus is on mine & FH's names so the use of "to" looks weird. I...

I keep going back & forth on my dress & need help.
vicky in Wedding Attire, on July 31, 2013 at 9:08 PM

Boutonniere inspirations?
vicky in Community Conversations, on July 12, 2013 at 3:53 PM
