Activity for Mrs. RATR

Hey everyone!! I have an appointment for a phone consultation with a potential florist tomorrow! I'm so excited--she did the flowers for FH's cousin's wedding a few years ago and her work was stunning. What questions should I have ready? I have the...

Our venue has a beautiful deck that overlooks a wooded area. During cocktail hour it will be used for extra seating and probably some pictures. I'm having a hard time coming up with good ideas for activities to have out there for after dinner, if...

Hey guys! Two questions for you: -I just finalized my bridesmaids! Yay! I'm thinking about what to give as gifts. I know I'll be getting them the jewelry they'll wear the day of, and probably a cute personalized tumbler to drink out of as we get...

So I drew inspiration from WW forums of days long gone (we're talking like 2010 here)...here's what I'm thinking I'll put in the welcome bags for out of town guests: -mini packs of Advil -A bottle of Jones soda (FH's favorite!) -A small bag of...

FH and I made the decision not to invite kids to our wedding. As it happened, everyone we put on our list was 21 and over--so that was our cut off. FMIL is now questioning why her 17 year old niece (whom I have literally never spoken to and FH hasn't...

Hey all. We're taking engagement pictures on the 18th. FH has transitions lenses and wearing contacts is not an option as he has an ocular disorder. Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy either cheap anti-glare prescription glasses or even just empty...

I'm on Wedding Paper Divas and many of their suites offer "gift tags" as an option. What are these used for?

Had a meltdown yesterday because my wedding website was linking to a registry with incorrect wedding information and for whatever reason I COULD NOT get it corrected. FH tried to be helpful and supportive and I blew up at him. The issue got fixed...

I can't for the life of me find a hairstylist and MUA in Kalamazoo. I've looked all over the vendor pages here and on other sites. I need someone who will travel to me, not a salon. Obviously not in a time crunch but want to start looking! Thanks!

Super random question, but FH and I are taking e-pics in a couple weeks. We are planning to wear blue as that's our primary wedding color. The STDs I am looking at are black with white font. If we use a picture of us in blue on a black card, will...

I was inspired by Maltese's post (I think that's who it was)--as a guest, what have you learned NOT to do at your wedding? I was at a wedding once where the groom got waaaayyyy too raunchy with the garter toss so it totally turned me off to that...

Hi all, I realized I never wrote a post introducing myself! Me: Lynn. Fiance: David. Wedding is next September in Kalamazoo, MI, where we both went to college (Go Broncos!). We met in the WMU Marching Band (he was the photographer, I was in the color...

Hi all! Congrats to all my fellow brides/grooms-to-be! My fiance and I are having some difficulty figuring out what to do with our wedding cake. Our reception venue is providing a Viennese hour for dessert--pretty much any pastry/finger-food dessert...
