1751 days agoDoes anyone have recommendations on a very low back bra/shapewear item? This is my dream dress... but I have small breasts and need to wear a bra or it'll look like I have none. I've googled but they all have mixed reviews.

1762 days agoIf you blocked off hotels, how many hotels did you contact? I'm thinking I need to block rooms for all budgets. My wedding is in a small town outside of Austin so there aren't many nice options close, but there are different price ranges. Should I...

1797 days agoHow many dresses were you allowed to try on per session? And how many hours were the sessions? I think I know what style I want, but I don't wanna waste too much time trying on different variations of the same look. I know it's all different at...

1798 days agoHi! First post here, but I have an issue. My fiance accompanied me to a huge family crawfish boil Saturday for my 3 graduating cousins. He's white, I'm black. This hasn't been an issue, he's met my family before. Everything was fine, until it wasn't....
