Activity for Courtney

Everyone always asks what's the "theme" of our wedding and I really have no idea. My dream wedding was something rustic, barns, wood, burlap, horses, etc but somehow nothing about our wedding is rustic now. Not complaining much, I love the...

I am not having a bridal party so I will only need to get brides bouquet and a few boutineers. How much did your flowers cost? Also did you purchase an extra "throw away" bouquet? I'm thinking about visiting the florist shop at my local Albertsons...

Some of you may have seen where the last few weeks I have been freaking out because the wedding is in 6 months and I still did not have a dress. I am so excited to say I finally have one!! I suddenly feel so much better with how the wedding plans are...

So today I stopped at Hobby Lobby to get some supplies for DIY projects for my wedding, one of which was this darling centerpiece: http://apracticalwedding.com/2014/02/diy-fake-floral-centerpiece/ I looked at the fake flowers they had, and most all...

Curious what everyone spent on their Bridesmaids' bouquets and groomsmen boutonnieres (per item). Trying to figure out how much money I am saving by making all of mine with artificial flowers. Mine are white roses and the blue/purple orchids. By...

I've been doing really well the past few days trying not to stress and be nervous now that I am home and surrounded by family and friends but today just seems to be the most stressful of days. All week it has said Sunday was going to be beautiful,...

So I've been working out like crazy the last few months but am not seeing the results I'd like. I've realized though that what I really need to be focusing on is my arms. No one will be seeing my legs, butt, or belly really because my dress hides all...

We are making an appointment this weekend to choose tuxes and colors and I guess I never really thought about what my dad should wear as far as colors. Does the father of the bride match the groomsmen? I think we have decided that the guys will be...

I feel like everyone I have asked (personally, not on here) have given me a different answer. So I'll bring this to WW. How long before the wedding should you get your dress altered? My wedding is June 4th. I already have my dress paid off and...

One more thing off the list, thanks to VistaPrint's semi-annual sale!! We ordered 280 address labels, 100 invites, 100 RSVPs, and 100 accommodation enclosures for a grand total of $129.35 !!!! Here's a pic of the invites before they were...

So I'm playing around with RSVP styles/wording on VistaPrint and hopefully buying everything for invites in a few days. How does this one look? I have made a ton but so far I feel like this is the best one. We want to keep its simple; names, number,...

For those of you who are like me and struggle with the size of your thighs, is there anything you recommend to help with your legs rubbing together under your wedding dress? My wedding is in June, I have a long dress with many layers, and our...

A bit of a spinoff of the thread about paying for hair/makeup/nails. Trying to decide on Bridesmaids hairstyles. I haven't decided yet if I am paying for them or not. My hair will be half up, half down so I was wanting their's to be a bit different....

So excited I had to share!! I'm still sitting in the mall parking lot, I couldn't wait to share! I just picked FH's wedding band up! I never thought I would be this excited about HIS wedding band but I am! I think this is my "When did it hit you"...

Another thing off of our to do list! FH and I moved this summer and we are 3 hours from my closest bridesmaid so arranging meetings has been hard. 3 of my 6 girls came to visit us for a weekend and we took advantage of it and went to David's Bridal...

Looking for suggests where to buy a veil from. I fell in love with the one they put on me at David's Bridal but it was over $200!! I'm sorry, but a veil is not worth that much to me. I know a lot of you have talked about buying your veils from...
