I am graduating college today and married in 56 days!! Wow what a year/summer this is! Just thought I would share because I am getting SO excited!!

So my mom and I decided to go the cheaper route and buy invitations at Hobby Lobby. They are REALLY cute, but nowhere will print on them!!!! They said that the paper isn't laser jet quality... I have called Hobby Lobby to check on this and they say...

So once the ceremony is over, do I continue to wear the veil? I have seen it both ways but I was wondering what the usual is!? It's a shame because it was so expensive that I get to only wear it for 30 minutes! lol

How do you go about picking a stylist when it is like $80 for a consultation?? I am so nervous about my hair/makeup but I need to pick someone asap! Any suggestions or what did you all do when picking??

So I have my first fitting next week and they told me to come with whatever undergarmets I woudl be wearing... but I am not even sure what you are supposed to wear under there! Any suggestions?? Does it matter?? This is probably a dumb question, but...

Where has the time gone?!?!?! 147 days!!!

I don't know why, but I am starting to get freaked out that no venders will show up, or one won't! Just after I booked the officiant I started getting nervous thinking, "what if he didnt show up?? What woudl we do?" then I started worrying that ALL...

So because the wedding is in my hometown, My fiance's parents are just giving us money for the rehersal dinner.... we want to save a ton of money so we can use money somewhere else we need. Does anyone have ideas of low cost, yet still classy places...

Where did you find them? What is a reasonable price to ask your girls to pay? I am having trouble finding any I like/that can be worn all night!

We have a ton of extended family and friends and on our list we have about 74 people NOT coming. If they didnt come, it woudl be perfect, if they did come we woudl be screwed and my parents could not afford it and the place would not fit them all!...

I have booked- Photographer DJ Venue Caterer I have- asked all my bridesmaids, groomsman bought my dress! Completed save the dates to send out in Jan! Still looking for a florist and cake! Where are all of you in the planning!?

Ok, so I have shown a few people pics of my dress and its the same response, "oh.... that is not what I expected." I am already like self concious about it because it IT IS so different than what I thought I woudl get and I have kinda been nervous...

How far in advance shoudl we start this? We actually have not found a church in our college town that we just love, but I do go to one that I like alot. Do I ask the pastor there? Or do we go to a counsler? What did you all do?

Well we are starting the "every other year" thing this year, starting with Thanksgiving. I am feeling okay because we will have Christmas at my house, but it's starting to hit me that we will be our own family! Still a little sad! Anyone else feeling...
