BAM -- more than two years in the making!
winnipegwriter in Community Conversations, on November 14, 2015 at 11:08 AM

After two years of being on WW (none of the noobs will know me), I'm finally married as of Sept. 26! It was such a great day. We had to move our ceremony inside because of the intense wind but that...

And I'm out!
winnipegwriter in Community Conversations, on September 23, 2015 at 11:25 AM

Three days to go and my last day of work! Almost 800 days on WW and my day is almost here! Heading to Maui for 10 days and then I'll do an official BAM! See you ladies on the flipside!

winnipegwriter in Community Conversations, on September 4, 2015 at 11:37 AM

We're actually not doing too badly! Invited 125 and we're only waiting on 14 people to respond! We still have to check the mail when we get home so I'm hoping there are a few more tonight. Most of the...

An observation
winnipegwriter in Community Conversations, on September 2, 2015 at 10:19 AM

Canadians (or at least, Manitobans!) like to party! Definitely seems to be one of those regional differences -- I've been to over 20 weddings here and the receptions always start around 6 p.m. and go...

How many apps?
winnipegwriter in Etiquette and Advice, on August 25, 2015 at 2:35 PM

I’m trying to figure out the food for our cocktail hour and need some opinions. Background info: Our ceremony starts at 4:15 p.m. and will be done at about 4:35 p.m. By the time guests walk over to...

Does recessional music *have* to be happy?
winnipegwriter in Etiquette and Advice, on August 20, 2015 at 3:51 PM

This is probably a dumb question. I know a lot of people on here will say, "Do whatever you want; it's your wedding" but I'm genuinely interested in other people's opinions. My FH and I aren't fans of...

Invite officiant to rehearsal dinner?
winnipegwriter in Etiquette and Advice, on August 19, 2015 at 12:30 PM

Obviously our officiant will be at our ceremony rehearsal, but do I need to invite her to the dinner following the actual rehearsal? Curious to see what others are doing. (FYI, she is a stranger, not...

Hair or makeup first?
winnipegwriter in Wedding Attire, on August 17, 2015 at 11:56 AM

At first, I was thinking I'd get my hair done first so my makeup is freshest. But now, I'm thinking my photographer will only get there for the second part of it, so I'm thinking I might want my...

Second dress fitting!
winnipegwriter in Wedding Attire, on August 14, 2015 at 11:10 AM

Just went for my second fitting and it fits like a dream! I have a little bit of armpit fat but I think that's inevitable. Can't wait to wear this beauty!

Hair trial!
winnipegwriter in Wedding Attire, on August 12, 2015 at 7:00 PM

Finally had my hair trial! I really like what she did. Only thing I'm going to ask her to change is to pin my (long!) bangs a bit further back so they're not on my forehead as much.

winnipegwriter in Planning, on September 24, 2013 at 5:46 PM

If so, what have you done so far? What are you going to be planning over the next few months?

Almost two years to the day that we got engaged, the invitations have gone out. Looking forward to stalking my mailbox! It was a productive weekend, wedding-wise. Bought some picture frames, guestbook...

Been a while since I've posted on here! We're having our rehearsal dinner at the clubhouse of the golf course where we're getting married. The coordinator said we could order directly off the...

OMG. That is all. For the veteran WW posters, I started my countdown at like 800 days! I've been on WW since August 2013. It's almost my turn!

Inviting officiant?
winnipegwriter in Etiquette and Advice, on June 2, 2015 at 10:25 AM

Is everyone inviting their marriage commissioner to the reception? If so, did you extend the invitation to his/her spouse? We do not personally know our officiant so I'm wondering what the proper...

Tipping photographer
winnipegwriter in Etiquette and Advice, on June 2, 2015 at 10:52 AM

Sorry, I'm a post whore today. I know you're generally not supposed to tip the owner of a business, but I have a question re: my photographer. She's bringing a second photographer to assist, who I'll...

winnipegwriter in Wedding Attire, on May 26, 2015 at 1:53 PM

I don't post much on WW anymore but now that I'm four months away, you'll see me pop in here and there with questions. I just completed my second make-up trial with my wedding make-up artist and I...
