I had my hair and makeup trial today and am in LOVE! Thanks to everyone that gave me feedback on my first makeup trial months ago (it was NOT good 😬) and on hair options last week! I ended up going with a less piece-y version of the "winning" hair...

Luckily my wedding isn't for another few months, but FH has an event for work next week and I asked to have my eyebrows waxed during my facial. I've done this before and have NEVER had an issue. Unfortunately this time, the esthetician forgot about...

I'm having a hard time deciding what I want to do for my hair trial next week. I know I want a high bun because I'll have a sparkly hairpiece wrapped around it (like #3 but smaller and just crystals), but I don't know if I want to go for a messy or...

I'm shopping for dresses tomorrow and I'm loving the simple silk dress. Did anyone choose one like this? Why? Do you think you can go wrong with a simple silhouette? I'm planning to accessorize with a bolero and then a glitzy belt. Thoughts? Do you...

Hello all, my wedding is 06/16/18 and I need to order candles and votive holders asap! Can you guys give me advice on the best place to order candles and accessories that will burn for a long time and are reasonably priced. Thank you in advance

We had our final meeting with our photographer last night! We love her and her fiance (second shooter) and settled all the details over a big bottle of wine! Anyway, when we were talking about photo locations we were saying we wanted to go to a park...

Anyone doing a red shoe for your big day? I originally wanted silver glittery. But my husband requested a red bow tie as his one want lol. I thought it would be cute to surprise him with matching red shoes. Now I’m looking for ideas!

Hi all, my hair and makeup trial is coming up in a few weeks and I'm a little overwhelmed by all the styles and accessory options, so I'm just looking to have a little fun with this post. I have pitch black, shoulder length hair so I'm thinking I...

I pretty much know I'm going to do a dress and doing something casual. I have an idea for the dress. I can't seem to put together a casual outfit idea. I'm taking them in the mountains in April!

I'm considering ordering Minted's 3-in-1 invitations with the perforated RSVP postcard because they're different, cheaper, and slightly less wasteful. I'm also interested in having them addressed by Minted, because I have the handwriting of a blind...

What are you wearing to your bridal shower?

Hello All. Mini vent about skincare product troubles. So I struggle with hormonal and stress related acne occasionally. I've always had success with Proactiv in the past. I ran out in the fall last year and just got more last month. Well I tried it...

Hi guys! I know I just posted about something else on this forum less than an hour ago but I just made a discovery! i found a super cute little white dress that’s around $150...now me and my fiancé are having a very casual wedding on an extremely...

FH and I are planning for around 300 guests. 10 people at each table so roughly 30 tables plus our sweetheart table. Does anyone have tips/ideas for centerpieces/place settings that still look cute but stay on the cheaper side?

Anyone else register for some totally unnecessary stuff that you would never buy yourself? I'd love to see everyone's quirky registry items. I decided to do a registry on Uncommon Goods for a few items I want from there, but I found a couple of...

FH is on his annual golf trip this week with most of his groomsmen. They gifted him this shirt and I'm cracking up! I think it will be his new driving range shirt when the weather warms up around here.
