Good morning all! I'm trying to get as many of the "little" things done ahead of time and the thing I'm stuck on now is the cake topper! Are you all getting one or skipping it? There are definitely some cute ones out there but I can't wrap my head...

Has anyone purchased bulk flowers from Kroger, costco, etc to arrange your own simple centerpieces? Would the money you save be worth it? Thanks

After splurging on a professional photog, I couldn't deal with paying the extra 1200 for a book! I made one on Snapfish for $50 (it was 100 but I had a coupon code) and it turned out awesome. You just give them all the photos you want in the book and...

We hired a photographer based on her portfolio which was great and I even met her in person and she seemed nice. It's going on 6 weeks since our wedding and she's posting all these other weddings on her blog that were after ours, but we don't have...

Hey all! So I got this pink mailbox (don't laugh!) for only $10 and I have advice cards that go with our theme (love birds). I thought guests could put the cards in the mailbox and it would be adorable! FH thinks it's silly. Now I'm self-conscious,...

So I just stupidly checked the weather for my wedding because I can't sleep and was bored. And it's supposed to rain. I knew I shouldn't have looked. But I did and now I'm super bummed. It POURED the day we got engaged, it rained out our first...

Well both our parents are in town staying at our house and we have managed to stay sane (mine move into their rental today and then we stay at a hotel until wedding day). Then the wedding planner got the day wrong, so we couldn't rehearse at the...

I love my seamstress. She is too cute and does a great job. Fitting number 3. It appears instead of losing a pound or two in my muffin top, I lost in my chest a tiny bit, but I'm done. Time to eat some ice cream.

All my September brides! So exciting were so close!!! What do you have left to do?! Besides paying people. I still have to get a hair piece and belt. Order my sons tux, cake topper, and figure out how I'm decorating my sweet heart table. Not done...

I wanna see everyone's creativity for their wedding! What are you making yourself? I love seeing new ideas and projects. Let this discussion be fun!!! I posted my super simple DIY item!!!

What is the average cost of your bridesmaids dresses? I'm starting to feel bad about how much the dresses are going to cost my bridesmaids, and I don't know if I'm just over thinking everything. Originally, I wanted my maids to come out to Alfred...

Oh my gosh it fits like a glove. Too tight? I think it's just right, but sure can't gain even a couple pounds. I do love my dress though. This is with the small train up. Got this dress consignment with the tags still on!

Just made this! Mailbox from Home Depot, birds were in my Christmas box, glitter letter stickers from Michaels. E6000 glue for the birds. I like it! Super simple.

Hi everyone.. Just wondering what everyone spent on their dresses? I spent $1,600.00 and alterations were $633.00. The dress here was $2,500.00. Thank GOD it was a dress made by a Canadian designer and since the American dollar is pretty strong in...

No idea how to fix my hair. My wedding is very simple. I have a 1 tier veil with a nice headpiece -- any other ladies with pixie cuts have advice on how to get my hair done ?

I am taking suggestions for t-shirts for my BMs. My FH is a screen printer, so these don't actually cost us anything (everyone at our wedding will receive a tshirt in their welcome bag LOL). I'm having trouble thinking of something original for...
