my name is Rosie, and I live in Sydney Australia. I love coffee, wine, whisky and the colour pink. My partner Scott and I got engaged in April 2020, when our state was in full lockdown! We’re getting married at a vineyard in the Southern Highlands in February, having postponed from September!

1513 days agoOur wedding has come and gone and it was amazing. Of course, with the day gone, it's time to decide what to do for thank you card, and I'm very curious to see, etiquette-wise, what everyone here thinks of as appropriate? For more context - we sent...

1561 days agoSo it has been pouring for days, like literal sheets of rain. I’m kind of hoping the sky is just dumping all of its water and getting it all out of its system ahead of our wedding day in three days time but I’m also not naive enough to think that’s...

1569 days agoIt's the week of love, y'all! Which makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside and curious to know - when was the moment you realised you were in love with your spouse? In my experience, it's usually not at some big, romantic, grand gesture, but...

1570 days agoLike many of you seem to, I wasn't super keen on the idea of favours originally - my fiance and I both agreed that if we had them, they'd need to be edible/useable, and maybe even pull double duty somehow. In the end we decided it would be cool to...

1570 days agoAt long, long last I had my very last fitting and FINALLY (2 weeks out) got to see my veil. I'm so happy to share pictures with you, but I also wanted to say a little bit about the process, because maybe it will help one of you! The Dress: You might...

1571 days agoAre you an emotional type? Are you a sympathy crier? I've cried watching Beauty and the Beast, when the farmer sang to the pig in Babe, and in countless episodes of Say Yes to the Dress, so chances are, I WILL cry on my wedding day. I am also pretty...

1575 days agoSo I'm supposedly (all things going well) picking up my dress TOMORROW! AHHH! So exciting and nerve wracking! I'd planned to wear fairly simple, understated jewellery. These earrings: and a small peach sapphire necklace like this: My dress currently...

1576 days agoAre you putting any sentimental florals in your bouquet? Maybe you're including a relative's favourite flower, or putting in something that reminds you of a special place? Perhaps you're having the same flowers your mum had in her bouquet, or another...

1580 days agoOk lovely fiancés and fiancées! Speak to me of your cake inspiration. What flavour do you want, what design do you want, and overall, how important is the cake for you? Or maybe you're doing a cheese tower, a doughnut wall or a croquembouche instead?...

1583 days agoI've asked this before elsewhere and people seemed to think it was a silly question, but I'm a bit apprehensive about our first dance so I'm going to ask here too, now that the day is drawing closer! I am the kind of person who likes to practise,...

1595 days agoAnother thread asking about whether you plan to keep your dress/what to do with it after the wedding, as well as whether you used your mother's dress for anything got me thinking. Have you seen your mum's dress? did she keep it or have any interest...

1603 days agoAs we approach our wedding, I am debating the merits of a cake stand. Did you/will you use one? Did it make things harder to cut? We are putting our cake on a wine barrel, and so it will already be at a decent height, so perhaps we don't need a...

1604 days agoSo, assuming I manage to dodge covid for another 4 days, it is my hen's this weekend! My sister and my SIL-to-be have organised it, and it's a surprise. All I know is to be ready to be collected at 1pm on Saturday. I asked them to arrange a boozy,...

1610 days agoI am curious to know how much input you had on the design/style of your engagement ring? Did you buy it together? show your fiance your hidden pinterest board and leave him to it? Agree to use a family heirloom? Not get a ring at all? After we...
I started a discussion
1623 days agoSo my fiance and I have decided we would write our own vows, in addition to the very traditional "I, blah, take thee, bloo, for my lawfully wedded..." stuff. I have had my vows written for over a year and a half, they are about 370 words/2 minutes...

1632 days agoSo, it's not WEDDING attire as such (unless you're getting married in the next week or so - woohoo! Please share your dress if so!) but what will you wear to Christmas (or New Years or Hanukah if more appropriate for you!), and what kind of event...
