Activity for Andrea

I’m getting married at the home of my dad and stepmom. She has been so sweet and helpful during the planning of the wedding. I bought my dad a nice gift, but am at a loss for what to get for her. This would be to give her on the day of the wedding....

My birthday was yesterday and my boss very sweetly gave me a nice wedding guestbook as a gift. It is of good quality and is pretty, but it is the exact opposite “style” of what our wedding is. We are going very simple/elegant. The book is extremely...

FH and I are not planning to register for gifts. We are both older and really don’t need anything for our home. My sister (who is MOH) is hosting my bridal shower. How do gifts work? Do I register exclusively for the bridal shower? If I don’t need...

I’m considering making the boutonnières for the men in my wedding. It’ll be just 3. FH, best man and my father. I’ve been to Michaels and Hobby Lobby and have tried to put some together, but they just don’t look right. Since there are only 3, I’m...

I’m planning my October wedding and have had a heck of a time finding a caterer with good reviews who is available to help us. Our wedding will be a buffet for approximately 55 people. We are doing our own appetizers. I just had a call with somone...

My fiancé and I live in Alpharetta, but plan to marry at my father’s home in Rome, GA (Floyd County). Can we apply for our license in Fulton County? I’ve tried to find the information online, but can’t seem to locate it. Thank you Brides!
