I can't believe I'M MARRIED now!!! My wedding day was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! As far as advice, alot of it has been given already but I will reiterate. - Don't sweat the little things! I was a little upset about it raining on my wedding day but my venue...

I finished my DIY BM gifts bags tonight. I stuffed them with 5 "girl products" and the jewelry for the wedding that I bought them. I also finished all of my mason jars for my centerpieces that will sit on wood slices at my tables! It felt good...

So I sent all of my vendors my Day of Timeline so they are aware of what is going on the Day of. Everyone is ok with it EXCEPT my Make-up Artist! She sends me a facebook message saying that she is only contracted to do make-up at one location and...

I'll admit, I was the worst about RSVP'ing. Especially to close friends weddings. They knew we were coming... I'll NEVER have that approach again! We currently have Yes- 184 Still waiting- 90-100 I just want to tell the caterer a number!!

Begin rant......I'm just so over it! It's irritating. I have a friend I invited to the wedding. I gave her a plus one since she wouldn't know anyone there. My deadline was Aug 2nd. She hadn't responded then. I told her I'd give her another week (Aug...

I am curious about how many of you have done the DIY thing. Personally, I can't be bothered and would rather just pay full price or have something made. I'm not artsy and I just don't want to. FH keeps saying "we can make that. we can make that"......

One of my bridesmaids (I knew her for 15 yrs she is like a sister to me) got engaged yesterday. I called her and told her congrats on her engagement and asked have they set a date? She said Thanks girl & yes! 07/2016. However, I can no longer be in...

I ordered my Bridal Bouquet, 7 bridemaid bouquets, 7 groomsmen bouts, 1 groom bout, and few extra bouts from Budget-bride.com. My order arrived yesterday (2 weeks earlier... No complaints there) and I loved everything that came EXCEPT my Bridal...

So I was due for my period on June 15th. I took a clear blue digital test on June 18 that said "Not Pregnant". Well now its June 20th and still no period. If any of you read my post earlier this week about weight loss, I did notice I gained 3 lbs...

We have a no ring no bring policy. Unless we are friends with both people in the relationship, no one got a date. This mostly impacted FHs cousins (who we are not close to anyway). We did this knowing we were going against traditional etiquette, and...

Ok. So our wedding is in the middle of nowhere, outside and at the end of September in KY so it could mean it's either really hot, or randomly cold. For cake, we're doing a two tiered cake, cupcakes and a groom's cake. I went to two very well known...

So yesterday we went over the flowers, this is getting real! I can only imagine when I have my invites in my hands and goodness the marriage license! This is going to be my bouquet, everything except the green. The BM's will be the same except in...

One thing I have learned is people have very different levels of relationships among family members and friends. My family (from my parents all the way to great aunts and cousins) is very close knit. There is a lot of "say it like it is" so that's...

Hey girls, I was looking for a cute way to ask my favorite girls to be apart of my wedding but everything I liked on Etsy was way more then I wanted to spend since I'm having six girls so I decided to make my own. Here are the three that I've...

I can't believe I'm under 4 months out until I get married!!!! I feel like I have a SHYT TON left to do. I graduated college in May so I have been focused on the wedding again! Good news is, 5 of my 7 girls got there dresses already and the other 2...
