Activity for Michele

I am stunned and feel empty right now. I don't really post here that much, and I doubt anyone really knows, but my husband lost his battle with liver cancer. No, when we married we did not know he had cancer-he was diagnosed just a few months after...

With it being 5 weeks since the wedding, my husband and I took ourselves down to the County Clerk's office to pick up our Marriage Certificate. I haven't been able to change my name ANYWHERE because I don't have this, and we both had the day off. We...

I'm back, and I'm married, though no pictures yet - with the exception of one. (And not a very good one, I'm afraid!) I did have concerns about an intimate wedding pulled together so quickly, but it all went really well. Strange how it's other people...

Okay, we're having a very small wedding, and I'm only having one shower given by my co-workers. We are both older, so fairly established household. Still, I went ahead and registered for some items that I wanted upgraded. The registeries cover items...

What did you do with your bouquet (or do you plan on doing after the wedding)? If you kept it, or plan on keeping it, how do you display it - or do you? I'm not sold on having a real flower bouquet. I'm strongly thinking of having a silk flower...

I'm planning on going to DB tonight with my mom to begin looking for a wedding dress, and I didn't make an appointment. Is that going to be a problem? I figured it's Tuesday night, so there shouldn't be too many people there? Or, should I call this...

FH and I moved in together the first of this month. (We'd been together for 7 years - yes, 7!) It was totally unexpected, but we both feel good about it, and we were engaged anyway. However, after talking it over, neither sees any reason to wait to...

Hi! I'm newly engaged, and just starting this whole planning a wedding process. I've never been married before, heck I've never been a bridesmaid before, even though I'll be 51 when I finally say "I do." The idea of getting/being married is fine. The...
