2539 days agoMy first bridal shower was this weekend in my home state of Ohio. My maid of honor and bridesmaids went above and beyond and I was truly blown away. It looked like a shower straight out of Pinterest and was more than I had ever hoped for. The whole...

2544 days agoHey, ladies! So for me, choosing the DJ was one of the hardest vendor decisions I had to make. It's really hard to verify and confirm a DJs work unless you've seen him/her at another wedding. Most other vendors, there's something concrete to evaluate...

2552 days agoFor all of you who are newly engaged (and even for those who aren't), how far in advance do you anticipate that you'll start your planning? And once you start planning, what do you hope to accomplish first? For us, we started planning a little over...

2568 days agoLooking for thoughts and opinions. We’re going to make a few slight changes: curl my hair a bit tighter and maybe cover up more of my nose freckles. What do you think? What would you change?

2571 days agoSo I’m an idiot! I was traveling for work this week and right before returning the rental car to the airport today, I locked the keys in the trunk along with my luggage and laptop! All the work stuff on that laptop is one thing, but ALL of my wedding...

2573 days agoSo I've been working on addressing my invitations for about a month now. (I'm doing calligraphy on the inner envelopes, outer envelopes, RSVP cards, and the RSVP envelopes!) I still have about another month until they go out, but I didn't want to be...

2573 days agoI have my hair and makeup trial on Sunday. My FH doesn’t like updos. I was originally going to do half up/half down but the back of my dress is so pretty and I don’t want to cover it up. I’ve decided to try a loosely-gathered, curly, side-swept pony...

2580 days agoThe invitations for my first bridal shower (I'm having one in my home state and one where I live now.) went out last weekend and we got our first gift on Friday. Two more boxes were just delivered. This is so exciting! Was anyone else excited when...

2587 days agoWe went shopping for our rings on Saturday. I had narrowed my choices down to 2 and some of you helped me make my final decision. Now I need help with his ring! He also narrowed it down to 2 but couldn’t decide and told me to surprise him on our...

2590 days agoWe went shopping for wedding bands today and I need help deciding. I’m torn. #1 would be customized to exactly match my engagement ring. I want something I can wear alone and they both fit that bill, but I slightly prefer #2 on it’s own. However, the...

2592 days agoSo I was reading another poster's discussion about reception entrance songs just now, and it got me thinking about my own choice... I had always wanted to use Lovely Day by Bill Withers as the song for either the bridal party or my own introduction....

2633 days agoTried my dress on for the first time today and it fits like a glove! The only alterations I need are a hem and a bustle. I was nervous about it fitting and I was anxious about the color because the sample was in a different color, but it’s perfect....

2633 days agoMy parents divorced when I was 13 and he’s now on his 3rd wife since my mom. He and I are civil but not close. (My younger brother is walking me down the aisle.) To prevent my dad from feeling left out, I did ask him if he would carry in a bottle of...

2646 days agoSo this was the scene in our house last night while I was slaving away over save-the-dates! In his defense, I told him he didn’t have to help. He had been up since 4am, had a 3 hour flight, went to the vet with me and our cat, and then I drug him...

2653 days agoI posted yesterday that our engagement pics came back but then I also ordered our STDs last night too. I’m pressed for time because I wanted to wait until spring to get the pictures, but that also means our STDs will be going out closer to 5 1/2...

2654 days agoWe had our engagement session last Monday. They were calling for awful weather (thunderstorms, hail, flooding, tornadoes), but we only had a brief rain storm about 2 hours before our session. I don't totally love my hair in some of the outdoor pics...
