3677 days agoHi all! We got married at the beginning April and for the first time in 60 years it rained on my day and all the days leading up to it. We managed to nab the last two tents in the county. Tip: if you have to put a few tables in a different tent, as...

3706 days agoHttps://www.thrillist.com/news/nation/groomsmen-spend-more-than-bridesmaids-according-to-a-gobankingrates-survey I'm not a lover of Thrillist yet for some reason I still follow them on Facebook. According to their polls groomsmen spend more than...

3718 days agoWe have been married for all of 12 days and now we're making the next HUGE step! We're moving to NEW ZEALAND! We got our visas and we told our bosses. I told my boss quite some time ago because she was invited to the wedding and I knew there would be...

3747 days agoI really wanted an slow, string version of "Tell Her About It" to be my processional song. A) I love it and B) it's kinda funny if you're a fan and know what the song is. But honest to God, bless their hearts, but Vitamin Quartet's version of it...

3752 days agoI don't know. I don't care. But I am in the middle of last minute wedding prep and my phone won't make or receive calls. Verzion's site keeps telling me to call them because their chat services are busy and thus closed for the day. WHAT?!?! I have a...

3777 days agoHas anyone ever made their own veil? Tips, tricks, or pics? My dress is floral so I'm making my own so it actually matches as white won't work. What kind of tulle do I need? I bought some but it's since been mentioned to me that there might be a...

3778 days agoHas anyone ever attempted to swing dance at their wedding in a long dress? I imagine a short dress is really the way to go, but that's not my style. Has anyone seen it work with a bustled dress? What kind of bustle? I'll take other suggestions too....

3784 days agoMy mom recently asked me who my host families will be. Apparently this is kind of the norm when you have a nontraditional wedding. (Our ceremony, cocktails, and reception will all be at the same place.) I've never seen this in action myself. She also...

3789 days agoI've been looking into videographers. We initially agreed we didn't need it, but somewhere along the lines that changed for FH. I guess he asked his dad for wedding advice and all FFIL said was, "get a video of the day." And then some people post...

3791 days agoI haven't gotten excited about much of the wedding planning but I really like how these turned out so I thought I would share. One of my besties is a graphic designer and designed our save the dates and the invitations as our wedding gift. Everything...

3800 days agoWe're supposed to leave to suit shop in 20 minutes. It was FH job to make this happen. A few minutes ago I checked in to make sure each of the appointments he set up are places that do rentals. He said, "No, I didn't think we had decided on that."...

3810 days agoI've seen gorgeous pictures of them. I've heard ladies get excited about having them. But, seriously, how do you light the candles in your hanging lanterns? They're suspended from trees, more often than not, which means they are rather high off the...

3815 days agoI've never dealt with renting suits before, neither has my FH. We've bought two and that's just about it. It seems like we have to go with a national retailer if we have groomsmen around the country, right? As of now it's Dallas, LA, and maaaaybe...

3822 days agoI think I'm officially losing it. I wish we had eloped. I love hosting parties but this? Oh ho ho, THIS is a completely different ballgame and I'm not good at it. I broke down crying and lost it at FH for asking me a wedding related question. Since...

3910 days agoSo my FH is tall, like 6'5 tall (when he stands up straight *sigh* we're working on that) and I'm, well I tend to lie and say I'm 5'6. So he's a full foot taller than me. Our officiant, MoH, and BM are ALL taller than me by at least a few inches. I...
