Activity for Caitlyn

My in-laws want me to call them mom and dad.... I cannot wrap my head around this and do not feel comfortable calling them that when I have parents of my own. It's just weird! On the other hand, my parent's want my husband to call them by their first...

Did you have your wedding gown preserved? If so, how is it stored? Have you looked at the dress once it's been preserved? Thanks!

Hello Soon-To-Be-Brides, I got married last month and I have been reading on the forums that people have regrets about their weddings, I have friends who feel sad about their big day, and friends who are asking me for advice so they don't feel...

My wedding was Saturday and I am leaving for my honeymoon tomorrow but I want to get an idea of who gets a card so I can send them out as soon as possible when I get back. I know people who attended and gave a card or gift get a thank you, but what...

How are you feeling? What are you doing? I felt absurdly anxious and cranky yesterday, but today I am focusing on our to do list and it feels good. We are getting programs printed (only because we found a reasonably priced local print shop), and...

For me it's weather and hoping I love the pictures (because I wasn't thrilled with our engagement shoot).

Hello fellow brides and soon-to-be wives! I am 11 days from my wedding and 14 days from an extra long honeymoon. We'll be traveling a lot but will have bouts of down time here and there. Can anyone recommend good books to read during the leisurely...

FH and I decided not to have a receiving line after the church ceremony because it takes time away from pictures. Here is what we are thinking: 3-3:30/3:45 pm: ceremony ceremony end until 4:45 pm: bridal party, couple, immediate family portraits 5-6...

Here's the deal. We have 117 guests attending our wedding (the church ceremony location is three miles from the hotel where the reception will be) in DC in 15 days. We have 50 guests staying at the hotel, 10 guests are local, and the other 60 guests...

Here's the issue: our reception is at a hotel and we chose that because most of our guests are from out of town. Our ceremony is at a church which is 3 miles away. I would say 40 of our 120 guests are staying at the hotel, and the rest are staying...

Hi all, We are having a dessert bar with two flavors of wedding cake plus an assortment of other offerings which include cannoli, macaroons, pies, and strawberry shortcake shooters. I know I want the heading to say "Dessert" followed by "Vanilla...

My second and mostly likely final fitting is coming up and they said I can take it home as soon as it is steamed/pressed. I'm debating if I should do that on the day of the fitting or closer to my wedding date (about a month away). My dress has lace...

Are many of you greeting your guests at their tables during the reception? I don't know why but I'm a little nervous about this - specifically having to make small talk with extended relatives I hardly know. Any advice about what to say to them? And...

FH and I are running into a timing problem. Our church rehearsal is from 6 - 7 p.m. and our thought was to have a formal sit down dinner with immediate family and the bridal party (totaling 13 people) and then host a welcome drinks and appetizers for...
