5186 days agoWorking on an idea for my card box. It would be a white box, 12x12. About an inch and a half down from the top I would have a 2 inch pink ribbon going all the way around it. On the very top next to the opening I'll have a pink peony. I'm working on a...

5187 days agoFor those of you who remember and/or care, I am making my own dress. I finished my muslin a few weeks ago and this morning I ordered the fabric for my actual dress! It's on sale at Joann's for $5 a yard instead of $8 so I saved about...

5193 days agoI'm spending this lazy Sunday afternoon on the couch with Fh, trying to figure out my shoes for the wedding, and trying to find a notary for our prenup. I'm tall and we're having an outdoor wedding, so I want flats. I'm tempted to just get white...

5196 days agoThis is my current plan for centerpieces. I've got water gems in the vase and the votive holders (only the one on the left, but it will be in both). These will be on tables with white tablecloths and pink runners. I still feel like the flower vase...

5210 days agoI was having a conversation with one of my clients the other day, wedding related stuff. I mentioned how I had gotten a good deal on something, to which he replied "That's awesome! And you can put the money you saved toward the open bar!" I told him...

5219 days agoI'm struggling a little with how to word this. We're doing a private ceremony on Friday and then the reception on Saturday. Fh has 2 young daughters. They will be part of the ceremony, obviously, because we're joining together as a family. However,...

5229 days agoAs a few of you may remember, I was planning to do tissue paper rosette pomanders for my centerpieces. I have officially scrapped that idea, as none of my friends could figure out how to make them, and there is no way I would have been able to do all...

5265 days agoWe were originally planning on just beer (and the standard non-alcoholic options as well), but I think we're going to try and swing a full bar. So here's the question..... If we have about 120 guests, how much liquor do I need to buy? Fh and I won't...

5267 days agoI want to hire a DJ. Ipod music seems like too much of a hassle for me. And with my dear mother paying for food, I can definitely swing this extra cost. Anyone in MN have a recommendation? Thanks ladies

5281 days agoMy manager came to me today and said she wants to give me more responsibility at work. They can't pay me more, but it definitely sets me up for a raise/promotion when one becomes available. We're being sold to a different owner and she told me she's...

5284 days agoMN brides, pay attention! We went to Knight's Chamber in St. Cloud (I think there's also one in Rochester). It was AMAZING. The guy was super helpful, he definitely knew his stuff. He found us a suit that Fh was actually comfortable in, and FH is NOT...

5284 days agoI have always had trouble finding pants that fit me. I have tiny little chicken legs and no butt, but my stomach/hips area are bigger. It's at least a full size difference, so either my legs/butt are swimming and I look homeless, or I have a freaking...

5285 days agoI finally have one of my pomanders done (yay!) Do you ladies think it would look better just sitting on the table, or should I have it up on something? To give you a general idea, I'm having 3 on each table. One will be big, I'm planning on having...

5285 days agoFinally got the styrofoam balls so I can start making my rosette pomanders. I'm almost done with the first one (super time-consuming). I've got plans next weekend to go to my friends new apartment to do some hardcore flower making. Tomorrow Fh and I...
