3908 days agoI'm married! My wedding week was a whirlwind - our first family members showed up a week ahead of time (DH's parents), and then more every day. I loved being able to spend time with them all before we had to leave for the venue on Wednesday. From...

3919 days agoMy FH got my e-ring and wedding band from a jeweler he knows in Hawaii (they went to high school together in Iowa). He got the e-ring with no problems last summer in plenty of time for our engagement. 2 months ago, he emailed her to order the band,...

3923 days agoMy wedding is in less than two weeks. I had what was supposed to be my final fitting on Saturday. When I walked into the changing room to try my dress on, I noticed right away that the belt had not been attached. When I tried it on - the top is too...

3933 days agoThe FedEx guy just dropped off three huge boxes - and I couldn't figure out what they were...my favors came! I know a lot of people don't love favors, but these are so us. Two years ago we had seven weddings in one summer, and while most didn't have...

3937 days agoOur wedding bands came today! Actually, his band, and my running/gardening/traveling/lab days band came - my actual band that goes with my ring should be here any day now. I had them engraved as a surprise - his says "You are my happy" and mine says...

3942 days agoYes, I know this is random. But I need ideas on where I can find socks that have a beer theme. FH is a home brewer, a beer lover and is brewing a bunch of beer for our pre-wedding festivities. So I was hoping to gift him with some cool socks with a...

3953 days agoFH and I are attending a coworkers wedding today in the 100+ heat. It's outside. I was talking to a few other coworkers yesterday, and they said the venue really doesn't have shade and there is no indoor option, and no tent. I doubt we'll stay long,...

3959 days agoI am so happy with the way this turned out - my inspiration pic is in the comments. I wanted this but couldn't justify the cost or time involved in doing it with real flowers (these are all silks bought at 50% or more off). These will hang behind us...

3965 days agoSo I had my hair trial today (it was a debacle yesterday- but they made it right, comped my trial today and gave me a lovely gift for the mix up), and hours later, the hair is still good to go and not a frizzy mess! I actually want a little less...

3967 days agoWe are having a semi-DW (about 4 hours driving from where we live). Yesterday we left after work to spend the weekend in a hotel over here and get some plans finalized, including my hair trial at 12. So I go into the salon (about a 30 min drive from...

3971 days agoI ordered my invitations months ago - my FMIL actually paid for them, and they were printed through a local shop in their hometown. They are beautiful, of great quality, and I love them. Small problem...I got 100 of everything except the RSVP's. I...

3975 days agoSo...I work with a guy who got married about two years ago. He and his wife both had kids before meeting each other (3 total), and got married fast because she got pregnant. So, 4 kids total. Then at the beginning of this school year, he announces...

3975 days agoI had my make up trial today - so happy with the outcome! Love my eyes, love my lips (wasn't sure about lipstick, I don't normally wear it), and I'm really pleased with the subtle contouring she did. Only problem - I had to sit outside for an awards...

3982 days agoQuick opinion needed...even if I get my wedding dress professionally steamed, it's going to get wrinkled (our wedding is about 3.5 hours away, and we're leaving midweek - I'm thinking of an additional 5 days in a garment bag, at best the bottom will...

3984 days agoSo he apparently forgot my size (he could have asked the jeweler, but whatever - he's a dork sometimes), and had to ask me to make sure. But anyway, I am so excited - it's soooo very pretty! My ring is rose gold, and the band stacks underneath it,...

3986 days agoI'm a little drunk after dinner with friends, but I got on tonight and noticed I have 5 stars!!! Which means I spend too much time on this site, but that's fine with me - it's total stress relief from day-to-day stuff! Thanks ladies!
