First of all, I'm really dumb and don't know how to get my wedding date to show again... it used to show and then it didn't. Second - any date twins out there? What do you still have left to do? We have these: - Bringing ribbon spool to florist and...

Happy Canada Day to all the Canadian brides here! Just wanted to share a nice Winnipeg tradition for Canada Day: the living flag. A bunch of people dressed in either red or white gather at a specific location and recreate the flag. If I weren't...

So, FH invited some people from work to our wedding, and today was following up with the non-response ones. One of them came to his cubicle and apologized for not having RSVP'd yet, and asked him if he was following up because we couldn't afford all...

Today a guest apologized for not RSVP'ing earlier - though he's still on time, kind of - and explained that he was busy because he was in Indonesia leading a research tour for North Korean researchers/bureaucrats. No explanation was needed but I had...

Our awesome photographer is done editing our engagement photos. This is her blog post of our photo shoot: http://www.ramonagarbald.com/2015/06/20/val-matt-engaged/ After seeing this photos I love love love FH even more than ever.

Last weekend, FH and I were joking about what would be the weirdest thing that could happen at our wedding, and I said I just wanted a Stormtrooper to show up as a guest. Not do anything weird, just walk in, take a seat and witness the ceremony....

We got a sneak peek photo from our engagement photo shoot! Some of you may remember we were very nervous because, well, we're not photo people. FH was a bit uncomfortable at first, so there was a moment where she asked me to move my mouth closer to...

Yesterday, while choosing wedding music, I realized I wanted the Star Wars theme as our reception entrance song. Long story short, FH thought that would be incredibly sappy and now we're not having it, lol. I love the other songs we're considering,...

I actually liked the post-your-unpopular opinion thread. I know it went downhill on page 12, but I enjoyed the first 11 pages, even if I disagreed with maybe half of the posts. Too bad it's gone!

I thought I'd do a new Canadian shout-out, since it's been a few months since the last one and I've seen there's a few new canucks here. Hello Canadian brides, drop a few lines here to introduce / re-introduce yourselves!

I didn't see a FGF discussion so I thought I'd start one. I'm thrilled because we finally booked our tickets to our honeymoon! We still need to book hotels/AirBnB and other transportation, but now it's happening! What is everyone else excited about? ...

FH and I have been debating over this for a few days. I want to order our thank you cards in advance and get them ready so we can send them after our wedding day (Vistaprint has a thank you card that matches our invites). HOWEVER - FH wants to wait...

Figured I'd contribute to try and fight the spam! This is just a small vent. We're giving little bags of non-pareil white chocolate mints as favours, and were buying them from Michaels. We needed two more bags, decided to buy three just to be on the...

FH comes from a very small, tight-knit community, so there's a bunch of people that I don't know, or that I know but neither of us like, that "had to be invited" regardless. Last night FH texted one of these fine guests to ask how much he owed him...
