Activity for Lauren

Just wanted to share how excited I am - we're visiting our first wedding venues this weekend!! Friday we're both able to sneak out of work early, which doesn't usually work for both of us on the same day, to go see the furthest-away place (definitely...

Does anyone have advice on researching photographers? I've used the Vendors section of WW - in addition to Borrowed and Blue, APW, Offbeat Bride, Knot, and others... - and am still having a really tough time getting a handle on which vendors are in...

Hi there! I am wondering if anyone has had family style dinner service at long (as opposed to round) tables? I love the look of long farm tables, and family style really suits the mood we want for our reception, but wasn't totally sure how that would...

Hi team! I've been on the road for work for almost the last two and a half weeks, so I've missed being around the boards more! I'm feeling very out of the swing of things since we haven't done anything on our (admittedly like 14 month away) wedding...

I wanted to see if anyone has used The Knot's Venue Concierge service? I was curious to try since I've done some pretty extensive venue research wanted to see if they'd come up w anything new... and I was intrigued by complimentary wedding insurance,...

Hi there! Since we're snowed in here in DC, I thought I would start plotting where I want to take my mom & sister wedding dress shopping when they fly out from AZ in March or April. Hooray! I've budgeted $1500 for the dress, not including...

Problem: We're in love w/ a venue that may be completely impossible. I haven't visited yet, so it's possible it won't even end up being The One. I don't want to visit fall in love before I run this past folks. Sooo... please advise! We're in DC. Some...

Hey there! Quick question on venue curfews... I've found myself not wanting to consider venues with a 10 or 11p curfew because, well, I want to have a great party with all these folks I don't get to see very often! Do you think I'm being...

Hi there! FH I spent time this weekend (finally!) talking wedding: what we want and don't want, where we should do it, budget, etc. The wrinkle is, we know we want to be ~somewhere~ in the DC / MD / VA area, but the specifics will largely depend on...

Just popping by to say hi! I'm new around here, my fiancé Jody (or Jodes, as I tend to call him) and I have been engaged for one month now - in fact, we just celebrated our engage-a-versary last night - and while I have a ton of questions and ideas...
