I am planning on having anniversary bottles at the reception. (For those who are unfamiliar with these, they are wine bottles with various anniversary years that guests can put little notes in. On that anniversary year you break it open and read the...

Has anyone had any luck looking for high wedge white/ivory flip flops? I want to wear flip flops at the reception but I don't want to be tripping on my dress in regular flat ones when my dress will be hemmed to my high heels. I have tried DSW, Famous...

The tracking on my invitations says they were delivered this afternoon!!! It is killing me to have to be at work for another hour and then drive 30 mins home before I can see them! I am so excited!!!!! I feel like a little kid on the last day of...

PLACE CARD CORKS!!!! I am super excited we got them so quicky. We asked a local martini/wine bar to hold on to their corks for us on Tuesday. We asked for about 150 expecting it would take a couple weeks. A family friend who is a chef there dropped...

So last night I go to pickup my veils and headpiece and I am super excited about it. I walk in tell them my name, the girl goes to get my things. She comes back with 2 boxes, one is my beautiful headpiece, one IS THE WRONG VEIL!! I was supposed to...

Pick up my veil and headpiece? I just got the e-mail that they have arrived at the salon. Should I pick them up or wait until my dress gets here in 2 months??? I would have to keep them at my sister's house, which is no big deal. Thoughts?

I just finished our DIY guestbook pages! I had been contemplating getting one off etsy but I decided I could make my own and I love it!! I love checking things off the list

Save The Dates went in the mail this evening!!! I can't wait to see the "guests" total on our wedding website rack up

I am wondering when you ladies had your tastings for your cake as well as your reception menu? I am thinking I should schedule these 2 things soon but I don't want to be so early that I have nothing 'fun' to look forward too. I have done a lot of...
