5491 days agoThis is my second accident on the same road in 6 months. I obviously need to find a new route to work.... I'm fine and the deer just jumped away. My car, however, has a deer-sized dent in its hood and the windshield has a bull's eye of smashed in the...

5501 days agoI have read about hosting a bridal luncheon for the women involved in my wedding, but need some help with the logistics. I was planning to invite my mother, my FMIL, my MOH and my BM. Should I also include the readers (all three of whom are women,...

5507 days agoI used my first day of spring break to go dress shopping (for our honeymoon, my showers, and my bachlorette party). I feel really successful having found 4 dresses for less than $60 total! We're only taking carry-ons for our honeymoon, so I...

5510 days agoI got the idea of inviting famous people to our wedding, mostly to have a souvenir from their response card, from one of the invitation artists we talked with. We have to pay for 100 invites anyway and only need to send out about 75... It's only...

5514 days agoMy FMIL just emailed me, saying that she was willing to buy the hostess gifts for my shower as she did it for her daughter. That seems nice and I was just going to thank her for the offer, since I already bought each of the 11 hostesses 3 votive...

5516 days agoI went to check on my registries today (because I'm nebbie and like to know what people bought). My Bloomingdale's registry had disappeared! I called and they had no record of it. FH and I got in the car, drove the 20 minutes to the mall, and went to...

5518 days agoI have this fabulous idea that I am going to make my own wedding purse, mostly as a card bag, but I'd prefer it not be the drawstring type, from the scraps of my wedding dress. (They cut off the train, so I have lots of material to work with.) I...

5526 days agoI'm going to be going my bridesmaids purses with their wedding day jewelry in them. What do you think of these as gifts for my readers. (One loves music and the 80's, one loves Paris, and one had a sushi purse that she wore out and hasn't been able...

5535 days agoI just received our kippot (yarmulkes - little Jewish hats for the ceremony) today and the company messed them up, adding buttons when FH is very against buttons on kippot. I ordered them in November, for the company's Black Friday sale, and have...

5538 days agoWhy is it that when things arrive in the mail, even when they aren't actually for me, I feel like it's Christmas? This week all of the pieces of my gifts for my BM's arrived. Hooray! I had special sets of earrings and necklaces made for them by an...

5539 days agoI am thrilled to have finally completed my collection of jars for the candy buffet. I have been buying them one at a time with Michael's coupons and last week's 50% off ones helped me complete my collection. I laid them out on my dining room table,...

5542 days agoMy FMIL just asked me for the guest list for my shower. (She's already inviting her 30 friends and associates who are invited to our wedding....) I'm wondering if it's okay to invite people to both the bachlorette party (which my friends are...

5543 days agoWe're going to make the invitations for our "extra events" (RD, party for OOT, day after brunch) ourselves. Our actual wedding invitations are letterpress and formal. Which of these do you prefer to line the envelopes that will hold the invites and...

5544 days agoI don't know who else to ask (so, if you have ideas on that front, let me know as well). How much should we be giving the temple as the honorarium for our rabbi? It's a mitzvah (good deed) for him to marry us, so he won't accept money himself, but...
