I posted about this a few months ago but am still feeling really guilty that we can't attend FH's friends' destination wedding. I'm working about 70 hours a week so we can afford to pay for our own...

Does anyone know what the general price range is for Watters bridesmaid dresses? There is only store in Winnipeg that carries them. This is the style I'm looking at:...

I seem to remember there were a few on here who ordered their BMs' dresses off Amazon. If so, which dresses were they and was the quality OK? Thank you!

Hi ladies, I've pretty much settled on this dress: http://www.maggiesottero.com/dress.aspx?style=3MT781 It comes in champagne/black (which is pictured) or ivory/black. I'm not sure which colour combo...

I've posted before how I hate showers and don't want one, despite my MOH and BMs wanting to throw one. I would love to do something like this instead:...

...I'm going to be on WW forever.

Obvs not wedding related but I'm hosting a garage sale next month for the first time. Any tips? What kinds of items do you like to see at garage/yard sales, if you go to them? Thanks!

I'm pretty sure I've encountered all of these. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/celebrity/news/childless-women?src=spr_FBPAGE&spr_id=1440_50957591

Two of FH's friends got engaged over the weekend, and I'm super happy for them. But they are having a destination wedding and we just can't afford to pay $3000-$4000 six months before...

I'm getting flack from people because I don't want a bridal shower, even though my bridesmaids want to throw me one. I hate going to showers and I don't want a bunch of women to feel forced to give me...

I just scored BSB floor tickets for the concert in Winnipeg. That is all.

My FH and I won a free engagement photo shoot, which we are doing today. I'm not sure of the proper tipping etiquette -- do we tip even though we won it as a door prize at a bridal event? Any input is...

I'm sick at work and am not motivated. What are you up to this weekend? For me: Friday -- Having a surprise 30th birthday party for FH at a comedy club! He doesn't suspect anything yet so I'm super...

Even though I'm 99 per cent sure I know which dress I'm ordering, I'm going to a Maggie Sottero trunk show this weekend with my mom. I haven't been to one before -- what should I expect?

Originally, FH and I didn't want engagement photos, but they're included in our photography package, so we figured we'd do them and get some nice pics of us. I was discussing the shoot with our...

Just out of curiosity, how many times have you been a bridesmaid or maid of honor (or groomsman or best man)? I've been in four wedding parties (three as BM and one as MOH), soon to be five. It's...

I know my wedding is still far out, but I've started to think of gifts for my BMs already. What do you think of the following for each BM? -A piece of jewelry that is different for each girl (NOT to...

Not sure if posted already...if so, let me know and I'll remove! http://www.buzzfeed.com/alannaokun/24-wedding-fails-that-will-make-you-never-want-to-get-marrie

I'm actually more excited about this than I thought I would be! I just needed to tell someone because FH doesn't care about decor (though he did accompany me to the decor company appointment...
