Activity for Sarah

Went to my very first dress shopping appointment today and it was very....underwhelming. I picked a smaller local boutique since it was my first time and I just had my mom come with me. But the whole thing was kind of a mess. They forgot about my...

Super proud! Tonight my FH and I sat down and crafted like crazy, and this is the result of our DIY sign project! Now to just let them dry and then spray them with a clear coat to seal them. I love how colorful they are. Less than a month to go!!! ...

I posted a while back about how I was stuck between 2 wedding band designs- one was too chunky, and one was a beautiful design but too thin. I found a jeweler on Etsy who had a design that was very similar to the ring I loved that was too thin- so I...

I posted a while ago about how I loved a ring on Brilliant Earth, but it was a bit pricy for me. I went ahead and ordered it because they have free 30 day returns and I just had to try it on or I would never get it out of my mind - it came today, and...

I'm so excited I have to share!! My FMIL is a shop/tech ed. teacher and is very crafty and good at building things, so she is building us our Chuppah. She just sent me this picture today of how it's coming along in her living room. It apparently...

... a follow up to my question about looking on Etsy today for my wedding ring ... I'm 100% madly in love with this ring (from Brilliant Earth) but I think it's a little overpriced at $950... My FH's plain white gold band was $299... My dress costs...

I had my hair and makeup trial today and I love it! The hair pin will change to something a bit nicer (it looks surprisingly nice in the photo, but looks really cheap in real life), this was just a place holder while I keep looking for the perfect...

EDIT- now with pics My mother has been talking about the idea of me wearing her veil for while now, but wasn't able to find it. I'm not really a veil person, but I told her whatever, if she finds it I'll wear it. In the meanwhile I settled into the...

I've been on the hunt for my wedding ring (2.5 months to go! Eek!) and multiple friends have directed me to look on Etsy. I am on a budget, and it does seem to skew slightly cheaper. Also, some of the stuff I've found is really beautiful, but I'm...

I got a call from the store that my dress came in, so I had to come in for my "Try On" to approve that they had ordered the right style (and pay the remaining balance, haha). I've been anxious for months because when I purchased the dress, the sales...

Everyone... I have held it SO together up to this point, and have been extremely casual about everything. Flowers? Meh, let's go cheap. Bridesmaids dresses? Whatever they want. Super low maintenance. Today though, I had my first moment where I had to...

Hi All! Both the FH and I like cheese more than cake, so we've decided to go with a Cheese Wheel Wedding "Cake", and a buffet of other sweet treats instead. I love how cute this idea is all over the internet... but the more I look into it, the more...

Hey all! I NEVER get fancy, so I'm definitely not wasting my hair/makeup trial by just going home afterwards. I was thinking of getting it done the morning of my shower, but I don't really want the world to see the finished product before the...

UPDATE: WE. FOUND. OUR. FLORIST! Whew!! I'm so relieved!! Thank you everyone for your help. We are only sliiiighly out of budget, but not crazy, and I still feel like we're getting an amazing deal for the NYC area! 1 bridal bouquet 2 bridesmaids...
