Activity for Pumpkin

What's the postage like these days? I need to know for postcards and for a standard envelope. I know actual prices will vary depending on the weight of my invites, but I just need a ballpark amount right now. Mostly wondering about postcards... For...

I just got the Wii Fit Plus bundle last week and... WOW... I'm doing an hour of pretty intense cardio a night without hardly realizing it!! FH is doing at least an hour himself! I came home from work tonight, he's standing in the living room soaked...

We're supposed to do our engagement pictures this weekend and I'm coming unglued. I don't feel like I'm ready for this! My dad is a photographer, but I'm usually his assistant, setting up poses, etc. I'm kind of the creative mind behind his amazing...

I have committed the cardinal sin of living in Oklahoma: I scheduled my wedding on a University of Oklahoma football game day. And an "at home" game, at that. In the town where the game will be played. Less than 10 miles away from the stadium. Now,...

Just out of curiosity, what other unity ceremonies are there? Other than candles, I know some people do sand and others do flowers. Has anyone come up with something totally different?

We had our cake tasting today and let me say... it was (mostly) DELICIOUS! We had the baker make up three samples: lemon with raspberry filling, pink champagne with cream cheese filling and chocolate fudge with chocolate filling. The winner? Pink...

The BMs all picked the same dress and fell in love with it. We went today to order it and of course David's Bridal is impossible to work with. They could only get the dress in a 22 and a 26. One BM is an 18 and she's afraid alterations would make the...

How does everyone feel about lemon cake with raspberry filling? We have our cake tasting this weekend and that's one of the flavors I requested to try, but I'm wondering if that's too specific a flavor for the majority of guests? I think it would be...

Just curious, are any other brides wearing glasses on their wedding day?? FH requested only one thing of me -- that I wear my glasses. Sure, I wear them all the time and they're super fashionable, but I'd really rather wear contacts so I can see my...

My bridesmaid just called to say she scheduled me an appointment for Alfred Angelo this Sunday! I was not planning on going there, but after a disappointing trip to David's Bridal a couple of weeks ago, she thought it might cheer me up. Everyone...

Ever since we got engaged, I've become an emotional wreck! I will cry at the drop of a hat -- not in a bad way, but if there's a Hallmark commercial on or two elderly people holding hands I tear up. When we went to our pre-marital counseling class,...

Our baker has something on her website called "rolled silk" that she claims looks like fondant but tastes like butter cream. Has anyone tried this? We can't taste test the decorations, only the flavors of cake/filling.

For those of you who have iPhones or the iPod Touch, I found this really neat little app called Wedding911 by TheKnot (yeah, I know, TheKnot is evil... hehe). It's free and includes a TON of quick answers to common wedding-related questions like...

Mom and I had this long, drawn out discussion about how I want things that aren't reasonable. I told her there were plenty of things I could live without, but if time and money allow I would like to have them. I thought it might make an interesting...

Sometime within the next month my BMs, Mom and I will go dress shopping. I don't plan on purchasing any dresses because I'm having mine made, but I need to decide on a neckline and my mother wants the "dress shopping experience." Is there anything I...

My fiance and I have decided that a tuxedo is way too formal for our wedding and he has chosen a gorgeous suit instead. My question concerns whether or not it is appropriate to wear cufflinks with a suit. I found a pair I'd like to buy him, but I've...
