2427 days agoTitle says it all. Another thread got me thinking about this and I realized, there’s no one to escort my mother. I mean, no one. My brother won’t be there, she & my Dad split almost 40 years ago, she’s not close to FH so him doing it would be...

2440 days agoOur wedding will be around 30 (including us) and there is seating for over 80 at our venue, minus a cake/gift/card table and a table to set the cooler on for drinks (very casual wedding!). I mean, come on. If 30 people can’t figure out how to seat...

2448 days agoMy reception is at a pavilion on the beach, so there’s no room for a dj, photo booth, etc. I was thinking some games might be fun but I’m stuck on what. My MOH, can, I think, borrow a cornhole set. But what else? Or should I just leave it alone since...

2452 days agoWe did our engagement pics over the weekend. While overall I’m happy with them, I noticed my eyes are squinting in many of them. Now it was full sunshine bright as could be out there, but still. Does anyone have suggestions for having my eyes all the...

2453 days agoObviously we don’t want to wear our regular rings all the time on our honeymoon cruise. But I’m having a hard time wading through all the different options in silicon rings. Where did you get yours? What’s a decent price range? Are they all basically...

2454 days agoWe’re having a dry wedding (no comments, please), and in addition to our bbq late lunch/early dinner, we’re of course serving drinks. Sweet tea & lemonade come with meal. Then I was thinking your basic assortment of soft drinks & bottled...

2458 days agoMy makeup trial is tomorrow. And my Pinterest board for makeup is all over the place in terms of color and style. And most are just eyes, not full face. I have very little idea of what I want. I know I don’t want to go too natural and I don’t want to...

2462 days agoSo my HMU trial is this Saturday. I’d like an updo since the wedding is on the beach and I don’t need my hair blowing all over. But. My hair is very thin and fine. Is an updo even possible? I’ve looked all over Pinterest and the “thin hair” pics...

2467 days agoSo, FH casually mentioned last night that one of his friends said she "might bring someone" to the wedding. He didn't say no, we're not doing plus ones, even though I made clear to him that that was the plan. Sigh. So now I suppose Friend A gets a...

2473 days agoWell we finally decided to do them (not included in our super affordable package), just shy of 4 months before the wedding. So really they’ll be pictures for us, not STD, invitations, etc. The space is a very small botanical garden, a lake view from...

2476 days agoI’m having bbq catered from the prominent local bbq place. So the only way to feed them (photog & assistant/husband) is to add to my count. But here’s my question: I’m only getting four hours of coverage, from 2pm to 6pm. Am I expected to feed...

2477 days agoSo I’m getting married on the beach. In order to have a really good idea of how everything should happen, we’re doing the rehearsal at the same time of day as our ceremony will be, 3pm. That means we should be done by 4ish, I think. Is that too early...

2477 days agoSo, my mother has no idea what to wear to my wedding and I honestly don’t know what to tell her. My website lists dress code as beach casual-be comfortable. I’m picturing cute sun dresses for the women and maybe khakis and a fun print shirt for the...

2498 days agoI have about 6 weeks until I need to start the alterations process. I have NO idea how to find a seamstress. My friends are all long married and no good for referrals. Nobody I know, knows a seamstress. Do I just hit Yelp, go with good reviews and...
