Activity for Sept2017AKBride

If you thought that ideas on the forums can't possibly be more tacky...tune into "My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding" this is the ultimate display of T-A-C-K-Y!! The episode I just watched makes the honeyfund threads sound like a good idea!

I was talking to my aunt last night who is attending a wedding this weekend. The invite indicated that the wedding is black tie formal. The wedding is on Saturday. The welcome party is tonight. My aunt RSVP'd for the wedding and Welcome party for...

Last night I had a hair appointment just my normal cut and color. I showed my stylist the picture of what I would like for the wedding - I am in the process of growing my hair out so I wanted to make sure that my inspiration picture is actually...

Just curious if there are any other Alaska brides on the forum? I am in Anchorage we will be getting married in Girdwood next year! Would love to meet other brides in the area!

For this community and these forums. I have been on for a bit and am continually grateful for the advice and sense of community from these forums. I look forward to fostering friendships over the next year as I plan my wedding. Anyway just feeling...

I recently read an article about the 8 things that annoy wedding guests. Of course the usual no-no's were in the list. Cash bars, long lines, asking for cash gifts. The weather was number 5 on the list. While I understand annoying I find it very odd...

I earned my fifth star!! Didn't think I would be so excited, LOL! There is just something about seeing that final gold star pop up! Have a great day ladies!

I am doing food prep for the week on this rainy day and have 4 weddings on in the background. This particular episode the BP had 33 people! I had to stop what I was doing and watch, that's just too many! This show sucks me in, I am looking for little...

Our ceremony and reception will be at the same venue. There is a deck outside where I envision cocktail hour happening. We would like to offer two signature drinks for cocktail hour and have guests mingle outside. Would this be considered rude to...

Yesterday I had the pleasure of watching (well sorta) my best friend get married. This was a second wedding with one attendant on each side. I was not part of the bridal party. I was an invited guest along with my FH. My bestie asked me to "hang out"...

We are narrowing down our wedding photo package and I am wondering how many hours is the average for the wedding day? We are not doing a first look, and have a small BP. The packages range from 5 hours to all day coverage. I am wondering if 8 hours...

I feel that when I am reading through posts I am one of the few (maybe the only one) who doesn't understand why the need to have an announcement or sign for an unplugged wedding. Maybe it's because I am a little older but it seems a little rude to me...

We have already hired our DOC she is amazing! Tonight she sent me a text that she had a recent bride whose style was similar to mine, she had some items she was hoping to sell. I connected with the gal and am picking up table numbers, and 4 marquees...

I clearly have a lot of time to make this decision, but I am totally a planner and we have a goal to have all major decisions, vendors etc. confirmed by the one year mark. So onto my question - one of our favorite movies is Forrest Gump (who doesn't...

I received an email that Sandals resort now has private over the water bungalows. Sounds perfect right? I inquired about a quote for our honeymoon next year and the rep was very nice and said our date was open...we anticipated taking a 5 day...
