I'm a pretty easy going, low maintenance person who doesn't typically wear makeup or style my hair on a daily basis, but I do like getting dressed up and doing my own hair and makeup for events. I'm also a person who feels really awkward being doted...

Our wedding is 6 months out so I'm looking into bridal hair and makeup (which is so far the bane of my wedding planning) and understandably most stylists require a minimum number of clients to travel. I'm having just a MOH and no other bridesmaids,...

Any advice on how to "break in" my wedding shoes while still having them look new for the wedding? I know I can wear them around the house while doing chores, but it seems like people recommend wearing them with socks on and walking around...

Can anyone tell me why my entries into the Wedding Wire sweepstakes are still pending? We've hired these vendors and put down deposits, but for whatever reason the entry still shows as pending and we have yet to receive the 10 entries each for hiring...

FH and I have no religious affiliation tied to our ceremony and no personal connections to wedding officiants. We've been to weddings where a friend or family member officiated the ceremony, and we are aware that the process of becoming a Justice of...

We were suit shopping yesterday and the salesperson asked what my wedding dress color was in order to pair my FH in the correct colored shirt. I told him it was ivory and he brought out an "ivory" shirt but it was much darker, warmer, and yellower...

My FH and I have lived together for several years and really don't need more stuff. We have everything we need to make our home what we want, and we are actively trying to simplify what we own, not add to our collection of stuff. I know some people...

My FH and I are paying for the majority of our wedding, with my mom chipping in a good chunk of money, and my FH's parents chipping in some as well. Our wedding is about 60-80 guests total, so on the smaller side. My FMIL asked to be able to have 11...

My wedding dress is low cut (deep V), backless/low back, and has thinner straps (not spaghetti straps, but straps that taper in an inverted v-shape as they move towards my shoulders; they are less than an inch thick at the narrowest part). It has...

I saw an add for Dazi ties and my FH and I really like the idea of a contemporary floral necktie/bowtie for the men in our wedding party. Dazi makes some great patterns that are classy and don't look dated. However, he's a bit concerned that a cotton...

I bought my dress off of StillWhite and will likely encourage my MOH/maids to get dresses off of Lulus, Poshmark, or their local stores (I love the mismatched bridesmaids look, so they'll have a lot of leeway with their dresses as long as they fall...

It looks like we will end up with seriously uneven wedding parties. My FH is considering up to four people for his groomsmen (he may end up with less), but I'm pretty certain my I will just have my best friend as my MOH and no other official...

We don't have a wedding planner (but my entire job is me planning sporting events and outdoor trips, so I'm organized and good at details) and I feel really comfortable with selecting vendors for most of our wedding. However, I'm really stuck on how...

I just got my dress and it has a long sweeping lace train. I hadn't even really thought about a veil until the bridal boutique suggested I try one on. I love those couple kissing photos framed by the veil and how it looks for some photos, but...
