2866 days agoMy FH has finally started having some wedding dreams. I've been having them for months. He dreamt that I convinced him to go to another dimension that was a little dangerous so that we could get the perfect wedding photos due to the amazing lighting....

2868 days agoIs it weird to include details for a welcome party on the back of your wedding invites? It seemed nice to not have to make up another invitation. It will be a drop in welcome party, but I am wanting people to RSVP so I know how much food/drink to...

2871 days agoMy tables at the venue are small. Most fit 4-5 with 2 tables seating 6. So my arrangements must be small. Bought mint julep cups from a restaurant supply store. A dozen for $50. Planning to do 2 hydrangeas per table. Total cost per centerpiece...

2883 days agoA short vent first. Then advice please. At first I didn't want a HMU because I thought the cost was unnecessary. After talking with my photographers in January, I decided to budget for one. I contacted the two they recommended from my town. They were...

2889 days agoI'm a simple girl. I own 1 ring (soon to be 2). I have 2 bracelets and 2 sets of earrings. I'm thinking about wearing these with my dress. Do they totally clash? I thought about pearl studs but that seems so cliche. There will be no other jewelry. I...

2889 days agoIs it really necessary to do 3 fittings? I'm a big girl so if my weight fluctuates 5-10 pounds it's certainly not going to make as big as a difference for someone who is a size 6. I was thinking about doing one 8 weeks out and one 3 weeks out....

2890 days agoAre you all including direction cards? In this day and age, it seems to be a bit of a waste. Our venue is out in the country and there are quite a few different roads to get to the lodge and with people coming from 2 very distinct directions, it...

2890 days agoTime is passing so fast! I can't believe that I'm exactly 5mos out. I finally have everyone booked and deposits have been sent. It's just a matter of getting everyone paid at this point. Hope to be done in 2 months and just coast the last 3 months. I...

2897 days agoI originally was hosting a wedding between 30-40. Our numbers have quickly risen to 50-70. And our budget has gone from 5k to 10-12k because I was pretty clueless about expenses, etc. I've been stressing a bit the money lately. But today, I added up...

2900 days agoI'm the kind of girl that is pathologically early for everything. If I'm on time I actually feel late. Obviously I would never start my wedding ceremony early, but is it expected that it will be slightly later? I have yet to be to a wedding that...

2916 days agoHoly moly! I'm just 3 days under 6 months until the big day. Friends I definitely didn't think would come are making flight arrangements. I'm excited and nervous as hell. Part of me feels a little panicky to be honest. 1) I'm a huge introvert and...

2919 days agoHas anyone used those companies that rent out several cameras and then help you edit? I mainly just want our vows and a few toasts, etc. Probably would hire someone to help with this. I just can't justify the cost of a professional company.

2922 days agoI just mailed the STDs. There's no going back now! It's just the kick in the pants I needed to get going on the vendors that I haven't booked yet.

2926 days agoMy sister is my only attendant. She is a bit apple shaped. Smaller breasts (size b) and a very large waist. I have no clue what would look good on her. She is not one to go dress shopping on her own, so it's up to me (10 hrs away) to suggest styles....

2927 days agoWedding website is done and looks great. Envelopes are addressed and stamped. Yet, I find myself nervous to get them in the mail. I've gone over the budget 100 times. Did a mock seating arrangement twice in case we get 100% response. Once those STDs...
