4560 days agoI didn't truly understand how much of a minimalist I am until I had a mini-breakdown in the middle of Bed Bath and Beyond. The woman who set us up with the scanner kept "checking in" because we hadn't registered for many items. She kept saying we...

4572 days agoI got my heart set on a lavender bud send off, but I don't know when to do it. Our ceremony and reception are at the same venue, so we don't have the option of doing it when we leave from one venue to the other. The only other times that make sense...

4576 days agoI only had stock photos before. My sister emailed me the ones she took! The harsh overhead lighting was unforgiving on butt and tummy. But I still love the dress. Included close up of the lace. The dress has 2 layers of it, giving a beautiful effect!...

4576 days agoOn a tight budget (saving for a house) so this dress was about twice what I wanted to spend at $990. I had tried on about a dozen dresses that were $500 or less. But my sister said this was the only one that made my face light up. And...

4580 days agoFrom what I understand, booking hotel blocks gets your guests a discount at that hotel. Does it cost anything to book a hotel block? We have a very small guest list (about 45) and I think that only 2 or 3 hotel rooms will be needed. Can I skip the...

4581 days agoWhat an eventful weekend! I fell in love with Ron's Pond a while ago and wrote it off because it wasn't available on our chosen date. I booked a local park instead. But the idea of that beautiful venue kept persisting in the back of my mind. I...

4583 days agoAbout to send out my VistaPrint order and wanted to take advantage of their 250 free business cards since I'm paying to ship other items. I think they might be a fun addition to the wedding invites. What would you use them for? Concise directions to...

4584 days agoI'm very excited about submitting my order to Vistaprint within the next day or two. I'm considering getting "envelope seals" but I'm not sure what to expect. The seal that matches my invites looks a bit funny (see below) The image seems too small...

4592 days agoA mother flippin' baby tiger! We have a petting zoo near by that specializes in baby tigers and lions. My FH (jokingly) suggested we "rent a baby tiger" to have just hanging around during the wedding. Want to pet and have your picture taken with a...

4608 days agoI'm not looking forward to looking for a dress for several reasons; I don't like shopping, I'm not a dress kinda girl (more of a jeans and t-shirt girl), I'm afraid they won't have what I'm looking for, and I have no clue what I'm doing! Do you guys...

4609 days agoI know I'm not the only one that did I double take when I first saw the acronym STD. - "Wait. What are these ladies talking about?!" But when people shorten David's Bridal to DB, that also merits a second glance. (A crude insult or an old school...

4611 days agoI'm super excited to have these printed. Really simple, but I like simplicity! I thought the crop was fun and visually interesting. (Ignore the kitty scratches on my sweetie's arm; he plays rough!)

4611 days agoWe will be inviting multiple guests from the same households. I have been planning on sending just one invite per household (with all guests names written on the envelope.) So how do I handle RSVPs? Include one per guest? Or just one per household...

4616 days agoFill balloons with water and food coloring then freeze. Once frozen solid, cut away the balloon to reveal a beautiful, marble-like frozen ball. I would totally do this if I was having a Winter wedding. Such a fun way to add color and interest to a...

4616 days agoI know that the default toasts would be given by the Best Man and Maid of Honor. We aren't having a bridal party, so that's a no-go. My FH doesn't have parents, and I'm not close to mine. But I think toasts would still be a fun part of the wedding!...

4619 days agoAlright folks. Stuff just got messy. A little background- My mother is a drug addict that I can't stand because she was emotionally abusive throughout my adolescence and she's a big fan of guilt trips. My Aunt is a enthusiastic, helpful, charismatic,...
