Activity for April

My rsvp deadline is on Friday. The wedding is one month away. We invited roughly 50 people and most have responded but we've gotten about 10 declines and I'm expecting a few more declines. Since it was a small invite list there were some local...

I need to print our return address on a label and add it as an insert for our invitations. I don't have a printer, where do I go to do that? Also I have all in 1 style invitations from minted. What's the best way to add inserts? The why: we finally...

I'm expecting to do both real close to the wedding. I've been looking for a job for over a year now in the city we plan to live in. Though I've gotten my resume seen and went through rounds of interviews I just can't seem to get offers. On top of...

I had my hair trial last weekend. I wanted finger waves. They did some weird dry finger waves that weren't gelled at all. I hated it. I'll give them another chance to do the right kind of finger waves when I see the stylist again. However, in talking...

My sister in law wants to do my makeup for the wedding day. She loves doing makeup and she does it well, but it's not her profession. She'll be doing my mom's makeup, and I honestly don't mind her doing mine. The catch is, I'm in Texas, she's in...

When I order my invitations I may not know my new address. By the time I send them and receive rsvps I should be in my location. I'm hoping that I'll move before I need to order the invitations so this won't be an issue, but if I have to be in my...

For black women who are natural: how far in advance do you decide what your hair is going to be like for the wedding? Personally I'm not sure when to. I recently got a big chop, that could be a possibility, my wedding is in winter and that's usually...

So I decided at the beginning of planning for the wedding that I don't want a bridal party. Although my FH could come up with 2 guys he'd be cool with having as groomsmen. I couldn't decide on anybody that I'm that close to at the moment. I'm content...

Am I supposed to send save the dates to local friends who I plan to invite to the wedding. I've told them in person. Most of them I don't know their addresses though. I will send them invites when the time comes. Also, what do you do when it comes to...

I would prefer a small wedding with the people who are important and close to me and my FH in attendance. With that in mind, our guest list is around 50 people: our immediate families, our close friends and their spouses, and each of my aunts and...

I'm going up to NYC for a weekend trip for my parents to meet my fiancé's mom. This will be at the end of April. I want to go dress shopping with my mom that weekend. I watch Say Yes to the Dress and was wondering if it's worth it - for the...

My FH and I went over possible guests for our wedding to come up with the numbers. Most guests don't live anywhere near our top choice wedding location (TX) other than myself and a few of my friends. My parents want me to have my wedding in Atlanta...

I feel so done with my job. Ever since my awesome woman boss left the company I have been stifled, silenced, and stressed. I have been looking for, applying, and interviewing for new jobs at other companies for 8 months, and as qualified as I am,...
