5955 days agoSo, my dad was absent from my life until I reached adulthood... he is partly to blame, but my mom is to blame for it too. (She refused contact.) I wound up missing out on all the father/daughter milestones that occur as one grows up. The result is...

5962 days agoI keep looking for a headpiece to wear with my veil. I'm drawn to a bunch of fascinators that I've seen on etsy, but am thinking most of them are too large and/or elaborate to work well with my chapel length veil. Today I found one that might work....

5964 days agoA friend of mine is hair dresser. I asked her if I could hire her to do my hair for the wedding because I think it would be really special to have a friend do it, rather than a stranger. We spoke about it earlier in the week and set up appointments....

5968 days agoSo, I keep trying to reply to this thread that's really bugging the heck out of me... and every time I type my response and hit submit, I get logged out. Think this is the universe's way of telling me I'm feeling a little to honest tonight?! Made me...

5968 days agoSo... I'm feeling a bit scrappy and need a positive distraction so that I don't unleash my less diplomatic side in other threads . Entertain me a bit... . FH and I had a conversation a while back about children. It was sweet, he actually has given...

5970 days agoIt seems to me that the forum activity slows on the weekends, with the bulk of the posting happening during working hours M-F. Kinda made me curious... what sort of jobs do you ladies work that allow you to be posting while at work? I'm a preschool...

5977 days agoI wear glasses all the time. I need to make an appointment to get a new pair in the next month, but I'm wondering how my fellow glasses wearing brides handle their eyes on the big day? I have never worn contacts... am not sure that I can. I don't...

5992 days agoI just booked the flights for our honeymoon! I am SO excited! We're staying in a time share that my FH is trading some art for. The place is situated above the beaches and has floor to ceiling windows and reportedly catches good breezes so it won't...

5995 days agoOur original wedding vision was just about as simple/casual as you can get without actually showing up in jeans. We weren't going to fuss over colors, or flowers, or even food. The bridal party consists of a best man & MOH. They would wear what they...
