3614 days agoI bought the cutest satin shoes for my wedding gown at David's Bridal. I had them dyed Apple Red. When I got them, the right shoe was defective and it sounded like I was walking on Rice Krispies and was attacking Snap, Crackle and Pop! So I returned...

3642 days agoMy wedding is on 9/24/16 and David's says my gown will come in no later than 8/16. Do you think that is cutting it to short to get alterations completed? I'm feeling a little stressed about it today.

3646 days agoI love my short hair. It's an inverted bob and is about chin length in the front and shorter in the back. It's finally a hair style that looks really good on me. The question is, grow it out to wear it up or possibly get extensions? OR, just wear it...

3646 days agoSo I'll be 53 when I get married. Probably look like I'm in my mid to late 40's and I just don't know how to deal with makeup. My skin is good but I have the telltale signs of aging. Any suggestions on how to apply eye shadow to hooded eyes and skin...

3657 days agoFH and I have decided to write our own vows. I love the idea of making our own special promises to each other. FH said he wants to hear my vows for the first time at the wedding. We will have a basic guideline so one isn't a lot longer than the...

3675 days agoI'm so excited! We finally found a venue. It is an historic building that looks like a chapel from the outside. It's got a Victorian feel and can seat up to 95 people. I don't plan on having more than 50. I will sign the contract on Tuesday! Yeah,...
