Ring ceremony with engagement ring and wedding band
ZimWifey in Planning, on September 10, 2017 at 1:28 PM

Hey Ladies ( and men with engagement rings, if you're out there). So I always thought I'd be wearing my engagement ring down the aisle and then slipping my wedding band on when we exchange rings....

Veil to cover your face? Too old fashioned?
ZimWifey in Etiquette and Advice, on August 30, 2017 at 5:16 PM

Maybe I'm just too young but both my FMIL and my mom were shocked that I wasn't going to cover my face with a two tier veil to walk down the aisle. Honestly I'm not even sure I'm doing a veil at all....

ZimWifey in Planning, on October 26, 2017 at 5:25 PM

I'm so over everything! All I wanna do is take a nap- and avoid all things wedding. I'm excited to be married and celebrate but I don't have one ounce of planning left in me. Any advice for the home...

You're a wedding guest- what's in your cup?
ZimWifey in Planning, on October 13, 2017 at 1:46 PM

We are providing the alcohol to the bartender at our venue. I'm thinking: beer, red wine, rum, whiskey, vodka, soda, juice mixers and water. Should I add white wine for a November wedding? Any other...

How important are wedding shoes?
ZimWifey in Wedding Attire, on September 15, 2017 at 3:47 PM

Ladies, how much thought/money did you put into your shoes? I thought this was such a minor detail, mostly because my dress is floor length and no one will see my shoes (I think). I was honestly going...

ZimWifey in Style and Décor, on September 12, 2017 at 3:15 PM
