Just wanted to let everyone know - if you're looking for a simple wood cake stand, I love the one I bought from IKEA! There are two sizes - I bought the 14" stand since my largest tier is only 10",...
Hi everyone! I wanted to give a rundown of my experience arranging my own flowers and bouquets/boutonnieres/corsages. As a disclaimer, I don't recommend this to everyone, but it worked out really well...
I'm on my minimoon waiting for my husband (!!!) to wake up so we can hit the town, but our wedding turned out so amazing. We had a lot of DIY but I honestly felt so proud when people asked "where did...
So I have had a rough year at my place of employment - my position was phased out last year, and I applied for a few other jobs over the course of months and it dragged out forever, and I didn't get...
So over a month ago I went to a local seamstress recommended to me. I went alone, which was probably a mistake - my mom wanted to come but couldn't because of work, and I didn't really know what...
So I'm totally a mess because my FH surprised me with an amazing gift today. He had his friend (an illustrator/comic book artist) draw art for us and then he had it professionally framed. It's a...
My photographer (and her second shooter) wanted to visit our venue to get an idea of the lighting. I've been anxious about all the DIY I have to do - I know I took it on and that's fine, but part of...
I am so excited! I wanted a birdcage for cards and have been kicking myself since last summer when I saw one at a church bazaar and didn't have enough cash on me to get it - it was only $5 but...
So last night after going on AirBnB and searching for good destinations within a short drive of Pittsburgh, I brought up DC, and FH was on board! We are going from Sunday-Wednesday after the wedding....
I've limited myself to inviting 80 people - our venue fits 110 but it would be cramped. I have my list down to 78 and addressed my invites. I only mailed Save the Dates to out of town guests and those...
I googled, I read other topics, but I am getting conflicted info! It seems brides with dates after me have already mailed them, but things I am reading say 6-8 weeks out. However, my hotel block...
Just wanted to share for brides on the fence about Azazie - they just had a sale so I bought two dresses to wear for more dressy occasions. And I love them! They're well made and I am planning on...
I've been going back and forth on whether to wear glasses. I'm lucky enough that my prescription isn't terrible so I can go a day if needed without them, but I feel like they're very much a part of my...
So I have been planning on DIYing my makeup - due to budget and also because I really like doing my makeup in general. I ordered a couple things - a setting spray and a new eyeshadow primer because I...
I have been in a major rut. I am in my last semester of college (taking two courses) and working full time, managing the wedding stuff, and dealing with my father's treatment for lymphoma - but I have...
So I know it is short notice, but I went to a wedding yesterday and it made me want to get my flower order going. Fiftyflowers.com has 10% off until midnight, so if there are any other brides waffling...
So I saw these table mirrors on sale at my local IKEA - they are normally $4.99 or $5.99 each, but I paid about $1.30 each! I bought a ton; I'm planning to use them for table...
So I was skeptical I could do this for some reason, but I had some old vases sitting around and was ordering on Amazon so I figured I would throw some mirror spray paint on there and try. Well, I did...
So after seeing some buzz about Digit, I've decided to start trying it. I am saving for retirement in a 401k, and in general I'm pretty money conscious, but I thought the service's algorithms to find...
I am on a highly caffeinated peak today, as I only have a few more things to finish before the semester ends. One outline and paper for a course, and an exam and three assignments for the other. I've...
