Activity for Emily

I am in a complete "I cant believe this is "happening" week. I've gotten everything set up, final deposits paid and my timeline set. I feel great about not forgetting anything and prepared to marry my best friend. I've been planning this perfect...

I don't have anyone as a third party to share my vows with and I don't want to share them with the FH before out big day, as having it a surprise is more meaningful to me. Can I get my WW family to read over them and offer advice before I have them...

I have no idea how much time to take off for the ceremony. I dont have help and its just me and my mom setting up for our wedding on a Saturday. I would have to set up, put together all the odd and ends, hook up electronics (didnt have money for a...

I reached out to a florist in February before Covid. She was very excited to be working with us and I loved her style. She has yet to get into contact with us about my wedding in October. I want to be understanding because of the uncertainty with...

I am looking for some advice. My wedding isn't until October and I am already having problems with my FMIL. A little back story, she's a very controlling person and overbearing. She did everything for my FH growing up to where when I met him he...

Did you and your future spouse do pre-marital counseling? I found an officiant that I really like but won't marry us unless we do counseling with her. Both me and my FH don't feel like we need it. We've talked about kids, past relationships,...

I am having the hardest time even knowing where to look to find an officiant to marry us when my wedding comes! My FH and I have decided on a secular ceremony so a church officiant doesn't work for us. We are getting married in a smaller town so...

How much are you spending on your hair and makeup? Are you paying for your whole bridal party? Also, is your makeup vendor also your hair vendor? I’ve been talking to a few salons in town and what they are asking for just mine and my mother’s...
