So my Mom was just here for two weeks and we were finally able to go dress shopping together. We went to the biggest bridal shop in Germany and they were also Maggie Sottero store, I knew I wanted to try on her dresses. The place was very large and...

Hiring the perfect Photographer is on my agenda! So I am curious, how did you decide on who you hired? Was it your dream photographer or did you settle for a second choice (weather they were already booked or budget related)? What package did you opt...

On Monday I have a few appointments with potential Photographers for our wedding. As I am far away this will only be a phone conversation and wondered what are the best things to ask a Photographer that you typically haven't already learned from...

Can anyone recommend a website to make custom photo books? I want to make one for my Mom. I have tried Tinyprints (who are teamed with Shutterfly now) all morning and after I am logged in and created my book, midway it will say I am logged out and...

So when I started this journey of wedding planning, I fell in absolute LOVE with a venue. It was so different, beautiful. I was in talks with the owner about booking it, I then took a few months off of wedding planning to really think about what we...

Hey all I can hardly contain my excitement....in 36 hours I will be picking my Mom up at the airport as she is coming to visit me here in Germany for the first time! And were going dress shopping next week! I've been going solo and it will be nice to...

How many are you having? Whose hosting them? If having more than one, are you inviting your BP to all? How long before your wedding were they? If you have already had a shower, feel free to share pics

For those of you that used a Day of Coordinator, how far in advance did you book yours?

I have 13 months before my wedding and am just beginning my dress hunt. Just wondering how long before your wedding did you buy your dress? Then how much longer until it arrived and you had your final fittings?

Our wedding is still a little over a year away but we have quite a few international guests coming and it's a DW for the majority of guest. So we are planning on sending out our STD right at the one year-11 month mark to give people the chance to...

I went on Tuesday for my first wedding dress consult. The lady was really nice and helpful in finding dresses that matches what I was describing. I tried on about 15 dresses overall and I really liked a few of them and loved one. The one I ended up...

We booked our venue last month and paid our initial deposit. I emailed the venue last Monday asking her to please send me a copy of our contract showing that we had in fact paid the initial deposit so I would have a copy for my records. No response....

So today I had my firs bridal appointment and I fell in love with a Robin Jillian dress. The store wasn't keen on giving me the style number (or the maker for that matter but I checked the tag myself) & now I want to look it up online but on the...

I am planning to ask my WP to be in my wedding soon to give everyone ample time to plan as it is a DW. I am also feeling while I know the people I am selecting will be delighted to be a part of my day, they are however already spending money...

I am having a smaller wedding of about 60-70 guest. I am ordering cards to ask my BP next month now that our date is set and venue is booked. Is 8 bridesmaids too many? Do numbers really matter when it comes to friendship? These 8 people are (3)...

I know it's been a little while since we have had a new thread on this and with wedding season being in full swing again I though it would be a good chance to share your wedding websites! I am currently looking for inspiration for my own. Which site...
