Hey all my date twins and near-twins! What've you been up to this month? I've been surprised how laid-back this month has been (yet somehow I'm still addicted to this forum. Such a time-suck!). Almost all the big decisions are waiting on me to pick a...

My fiance is considering taking a second job over the summer to cover our honeymoon - which we've already got covered, as long as we don't go way over budget. I've already picked up extra work I can do from home, but he's talking about taking a...

In searching for info on DIYing tall centerpieces, I ran across a thread with this topic on another forum. Seems like a great way to talk through real-life experience of different ideas. So, what did YOU learn from going to other people's weddings? ...

Ugh - I went looking for photos of other weddings at my venue, and found a fantastic local photographer that....yeah, I like better than the one I hired. I saw her WW profile but the photos in it didn't catch my eye....the full wedding galleries on...

I heard so many great stories about the evolution of your wedding planning ideas on the How Long thread. I'm starting to visit dress salons, and thinking my beloved A-line/sheath plan may fall apart. What was your dream dress idea when you started...

Seriously, I'm way behind on work deadlines, my fiance won't stop bitching about "having" to do pre-marriage counseling tomorrow and somehow I'm the evil one who's "making" him go, I just found out the taxes on my replacement car will eat up my whole...

I'm prepping for my first dress shopping trip and trying to narrow down what's reasonable for me. I'm a 36D (in some bra styles a DD). Can I reasonably shop for a strapless dress? My big worry is that I won't get the sort of support and lift I need...

Today I realized that I felt wrong somehow...then realized I hadn't put my e-ring back on after washing the dishes. I've been engaged a month, and it already feels like I'm missing something crucial when I'm not wearing it! I've never worn a ring...

I'm looking at using this kit for our DIY invitations, but I'm not sure what the quality of the paper/cardstock is. Has anybody used this or another DB kit? What was the quality like?...

I'm starting to look at BM dress options for my date. Problem is, it could be 70 and sunny, 65 with a cutting wind, or 45 and rainy. November in Oklahoma runs the gamut. I don't want my bridesmaids to freeze (like I did in a friend's November wedding...

My most anxious moments are ones like these, waiting for a favorite vendor to confirm and send paperwork so I can lock them in. After careful research, we picked a DJ and I was all excited to book them. The booking guy is out until tomorrow - he'll...

Hey all! I've seen a bunch of these for spring/summer and early fall brides. But what I'd really love is to commiserate over the challenges of a November wedding. Has anyone else gotten annoyed that the 'seasonal flower' writeups focus on fall...

Up until now, every vendor I've booked has had an initial free meeting/consult. The photographer and I did coffee - the venue did a site visit - even the DJ company had me in for a meeting first. But the MUAs and hair people I'm looking at don't...

My top 2 MUA choices (great WW reviews, love their portfolios) are also the only 2 I've found in my area that charge to do a trial, separate from the cost on the wedding day! When I was budgeting, I took my cue from the majority of MUAs in my area,...
