4253 days agoSo I'm not changing out of my wedding gown for the reception, but I still needed a second dress because we're planning on hitting up the casino after the wedding with some friends/bridal party. I've been stressing over finding the perfect dress -- I...

4254 days agoShe has been SO GOOD up until this point. Why did she have to go and get CRAZY on me!? FH had a convo with his mom WEEKS ago about their mother/son dance song. He asked if she had ideas. She said not really. He said he had one in mind and told her...

4257 days agoFH took today and Monday off to give himself a four day weekend (he usually works holidays). I had to work today but told him that I'd probably be leaving at lunch time. I left a little bit ago, ran a few errands, and just got home ... he is nowhere...

4257 days agoSo my shower was last weekend and I just got around to getting on my registry and making sure all of the items I received were up-to-date (in store purchases that they didn't say were for a registry). This made me think about whether, as I update my...

4257 days agoI answered a question on a previous post with this answer and it got me thinking what you guys would do! I lived in Thailand while in Peace Corps and FH came to visit while I was there. We both have always dreamed of going back to work/live for a...

4258 days agoI am trying to find a rehearsal dinner dress and I can't seem to find one I like! Someone once told me that you're *traditionally* supposed to wear white/ivory, which I think is what's tripping me up. Is that really the case? I know I can technically...

4258 days agoI love my dad, I really really do ... but sometimes I just want to punch him in the face (nicely of course). He called me yesterday and here's how the conversation went. Me: Hey, Dad. What's up? Dad: Well, I have a question for you. Me: What's that?...

4259 days agoPlease NO discussion here about your thoughts on the IBC. We have a million other posts about that. What I'm curious about is if anyone was nominated and used it as an opportunity to donate to a DIFFERENT charity. I'm always interested to hear about...

4259 days agoI had an appointment at lunch today with our cake people and I wanted the best guestimate I could have on number of servings so I went through our guest list and who hasn't responded and tried to figure out whether I thought they were coming our not....

4259 days agoLong story short, my wedding hair has been my biggest stress. We're doing a 1920s art deco/Gatsby (curse the name!) inspired wedding so I've been trying to stay in that genre and it's driving me crazy. Had a consult with my stylist and we settled on...

4260 days agoJust dropped off our final payment and it feels sooooooo good. We will owe a little more when we turn in our final guest count since we have about 20 more guests than first contracted, but my amazing dad offered to cover that. Soooo, FH and I are...

4260 days agoI'm not sure where this burst of "I need to get shit done" energy came from, but I have had a SUPER productive day just sitting at my desk at work. Helps that my boss is out of town. 1. Cancelled make up artist (my hair stylist is now going to do...

4261 days agoSo my mom and her brother had a falling out about 2 yrs ago when their mom passed away. They haven't seen/spoken to each other much since. We attended a memorial for my mom's uncle this weekend and her brother/his wife were there. He never came over...

4261 days agoSo this weekend was DIY weekend with my mom and sister. I drove out early Saturday morning to where they live (about two hours away) and spent the weekend getting a bunch of DIYs done. The main ones we focused on were the bouquets. Bridesmaid...

4264 days agoSo FH has been involved, but not involved, in wedding planning. He helps with things he wants to help with but tunes out on the things he doesn't care about. I like it that way. Less talking, more doing. But, as such, he has no idea what is going on...

4264 days agoThere is a lot of back story to this so I'll try to make it as short and sweet as possible. My sis and her husband 1) do not have a good relationship and 2) are always stressed about money. He is an MMA fighter and owns two small seasonal business so...
