Activity for Anne

I'm at 60 days/2 months away from my big day and it seems like it will never get here. What do you have left to do? I have just about abandoned the checklist. I still have to order the cake. Everything else is done until we get our RSVPs all back and...

FH and I invited a bunch of extended family members and family friends who we could care less about attending our wedding but we would have really pissed off our parents had we not acquiesced. When we get RSVP No's in the mail, we high-five each...

For those folks who have had the wedding, what decisions did you regret or what would you have changed? I wouldn't have sent STDs and committed us to as large a guest list as we have. I would have just had parents and kids. I know that mistake can't...

We are doing an open bar paid based on consumption. Wedding is in TN and drinks range from $7-12 each. What is the rule of thumb for estimating how much people will drink so I can budget properly? I'm having 50ish peeps. All but 4 kids are of...

For those folks who will be moving in together after marriage what do you see as your biggest adjustment? Mine is bathroom habits. I was married for 18 years to a very prudish man who never spoke of the things that went on in the bathroom. He would...

FH can't find his passport and mine expires in October 2017. We are leaving for our honeymoon in Europe on 30 June 2017. FH tells me he cannot gather all the necessary documents to submit for a replacement passport until the last week of March due to...

I addressed all but 7 invites tonight while my daughter was at her counseling session (1 hour) and then doing her homework. I can't believe how quickly that went. Much better than writing Christmas cards for sure. What is the best way to seal the...

I packed my address book in one of about 40 boxes this weekend and put it in the storage unit we rented for my belongings in preparation for a move. My house goes on the market tomorrow. The plan was to stage the house and I thought I was doing a...
