FH and I are torn about our first dance. The song we've chosen is "Crush" by the Dave Matthews Band (hence my username, any other fans here?), and we were planning on using a recording until we met with the bandleader yesterday. He told us that...

Got home to an RSVP card declining for my cousin, his wife, and their 1 year old daughter. We listed only the parents on the envelope, and my dad also told them gently when he saw them a few weeks ago that we are having a kid-free wedding and my 1...

Good morning everyone! FH and I remembered over the weekend that we plan on creating small "amenity baskets" for the ladies' and mens' rooms. Does anyone have suggestions on what to include? So far for ladies I have tampons, pantyliners, floss,...

Fun food decision to be made! Our package offers lots of cocktail food, but not so much for dessert. We asked if we could swap out a cocktail station for extra sweets and we can, so now we're deciding whether it's what we should do. The cocktail hour...

And Nova won the championship last night! Happy Tuesday, GO CATS!

2 months and 60 days for June 4 brides! FINALLY feels so close, hard to believe that in two months I'll be getting ready with my BMs! I feel like there are still so many little things to check off my to-do list... Any other date twins? What do you...

So I HATE surprises. I cried when I was 16 and found out by accident that I was being thrown a surprise birthday party, because it made me so uncomfortable. FI had to plan a super low-key proposal to make sure I didn't freak out about it. My...

I'm super lucky to have a lot of great friends, but I don't live close to many of them and different work schedules, etc keep us from seeing each other often. I'd love to make a few more girlfriends, but it's so much harder as an adult than it was in...

Going between WW and CNN.com and horrified by how things are developing in Brussels. It's putting everything in perspective, since I know I'm the first to over-dramatize my wedding planning problems or school/work stress. Nothing like an...

Hi everyone! My shower was yesterday (waiting on pics for a BAS!) and I was absolutely floored by the amount of gifts I received. I'm so grateful! Since FI and I live and own a house together, we made a relatively small registry of upgrades and...

FI and I are having a really hard time figuring out what to do for our guest book...we love some of the more Pinteresty, alternative ideas, but we also like the durability and tradition of a "regular" book. What is everyone choosing for theirs?!

Hi everyone! I just read the "new here?" post and decided to finally post this...I've been holding off because I don't like being the center of attention I lurked over at The Knot for awhile but found them to be way less friendly, so I'm glad I found...

My shower is in a few weeks and I've started to receive gifts from some invitees who can't make it. I have left them in their packaging in our spare bedroom for now, but I'm wondering what the "official" etiquette is on breaking open the gifts prior...

Hi everyone! I'm looking for some input on the situation I have with my hairdresser. I'm planning on using the hairstylist I've gone to for 8 years. She requested that I book through her individually, not with the salon, as the place she works takes...
