Activity for Connie

About a month ago, I posted about my wedding dress nightmare that involved poorly-done alterations, a black mark on my gown and a lysol wipe. Here's the original thread, for anyone interested:...

Yaaaaaaaay!! Sorry I've been pretty absent the last few weeks. The month of June is hell for me at work. I hope everyone is well. We booked our honeymoon tonight! We're going to Jamaica and staying at Sandals Royal Plantation. We've planned about 10...

Good evening, all! I am using pocket folds and decided against getting inner envelopes. How do I address invitations to indicate that children and guests are invited? For example, would something like "The Smith Family" be appropriate, or should I...

Aside from the obvious (no cash bars, don't kick out bridesmaids, etc), what is some personal advice you'd give someone who's just started planning their wedding? Obviously I'm not married yet, but in this planning journey, here are my best pieces of...

Hey, all! What it says. We got our invitations today from WPD and we ordered pocket folds. Since there's no inner envelope, do we write guest names on the pocket fold or just leave it? My google-fu is failing me today. If it's relevant, we are having...

I bought my dress back in January. It came in fairly quickly, and I started alterations very early. One, because I knew I would be picky about the bustle and two, they told me that they start initial alterations 4-5 months out. I've now had FIVE...

Does anyone else like to mess with your FH about the wedding? Specifically, I like to mess with him about my dress. I've been extremely secretive about the dress for no real reason, hah. The only thing he knows is that I have a huge train, because he...

I need some shoes for my self-catered, cash bar wedding where i've replaced 3 of my bridesmaids and instructed my guests to wear ONLY neon orange or don't bother coming. So anyway. I need some help finding shoes! I actually have a PERFECT pair of...

I've been dealing with what I thought was fairly severe acne for a couple of years now. Seeing as I'm getting closer to the wedding, I thought I'd bite the bullet and go to a dermatologist. Nope, not acne. Apparently, I have rosacea. I'm now on oral...

Hey, all! As part of the wedding gift, I'm going to give my girls the jewelry they'll wear during the ceremony. Obviously I will also get them individual non-wedding-related gifts as well. My sister's ears are not pierced and she's pretty bummed that...

Hey, all! We're looking into ordering invitations soon and I have to admit, I'm a bit confused about all of it! Inner envelopes? We're going through Wedding Paper Divas and it looks like we have the option of pocket folds or layered, but no inner...

For quite a few reasons, I will likely be walking by myself down the aisle. I do have 3 Inch heels (my feet can't work with flats and I typically do walk very well in heels), but the ceremony is outside on grass. I just bought some Soulmate caps, but...
