Registering for furniture?
Victoria in Registry, on December 30, 2017 at 10:58 AM

Is it tacky to register for furniture? We just moved from a 700 sf apartment to a 1900 sf house so things are looking quite empty in here, but it feels weird to register for furniture - thoughts?

Victoria in Planning, on July 27, 2017 at 5:27 PM

E pic outfit - be brutally honest
Victoria in Wedding Attire, on May 18, 2017 at 1:33 PM

I think I finally found my e pic dress! I love it, it's simple & FH has a few shirts that go perfectly with it, but my one concern is that it gives me man arms/shoulders? I've been lifting weights &...

When to order FH's tux?
Victoria in Wedding Attire, on April 19, 2017 at 10:42 AM

How far out did you order your FH's tux? Did you just wait until he and all the GM went together, or did you do FH's first? I looked on my checklist, but all I see is that I should order my wedding...
