Activity for Sarah

So I just got married in September and now one of my bridesmaids is planning a wedding of her own... for May/ June 2021. It’s going to be a destination wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico. Although no formal plans have been made, she’s said that she...

We are 9 days out! I’ve thought all along that once I reached single digits, I would be unable to sleep because I was so darn excited. Well I’ve been battling a sore throat for days- taking emergen C, zinc losanges, lots of fluids. Waiting to wake up...

For those of you that did a first look and did most- if not all- of your pictures before the ceremony- what did you do about rings? I feel like it would be odd to wear them since we didn’t exchange them yet and make it official, but I don’t want the...

When you first walk into my reception, I will have a big table with cards directing guests to their tables (not seats), so I think that would be escort cards? My wedding will have 180 people. Would I do “Mary Smith” and then “John Smith” on separate...

Our RSVP date was today and we still have 17 to respond. The wedding is 3 weeks from today and we need to start working on seating chart, giving final vendor counts, etc. Should I reach out to the stragglers today or give them a few days? My major...

We have one groomsman that apparently can’t wear the shoes that come with our tux. He says he has a hard time finding shoes that are comfortable for him. Obviously for pictures we want everyone to look somewhat uniform. He promised my fiancé he would...

I feel like I’ve been posting more and more the closer I get to the big day. I got my boudoir pictures done July 13th (almost a month ago). My originally photographer ended up moving unexpectedly but she referred me to this one, who seems to have...

So my MOH is my fiancé’s sister. We definitely aren’t best best friends but I like to think we have gotten pretty close and have a great relationship overall. She’s currently 4.5 months pregnant. She’s super organaized type A personality who loves to...

At least in my experience, I have found that I get sick when I’m the most stressed! And what is more stressful than wedding planning?? I also tend to get a good fall cold every year, which is when my wedding is. What are you brides doing to stay...

How much say are you giving your families on the seating chart? Our parents are each roughly paying for half of the wedding. What I’ve been invisioning is us with our bridal party at the head table, then each set of parents at their own table right...

So my FH told me today that one of his five groomsmen is unable to wear the shoes that go with the tuxedo rental because he had a foot operation and the height doesn’t work for him. He’s going to attempt to find something close. Is it horrible that...

So my wedding is Sept 20th (a Friday and roughly 9 weeks away). We just sent out invites last week with our RSVP date of Aug 31. Our venue maxes out at 200 and we have invited 206. So far we have roughly one third of our RSVPs back with no regrets....

Hello all! I have my boudoir shot Wednesday and I am so nervous. I’m driving about a half hour away to get them done in a photographers studio. I already paid her $250 fee for an hour. She also set up a hair/ make up artist to come to the...

Alright ladies! Hit me with your best weight loss tips! My big day is in just under 3 months (eeek). I weighed myself today for the first time in a while and found out I gained 10 lbs in the past few months due to a new medication- and it all went to...

So the next decision I need to make is what type of music we are using for the ceremony. As of right now, we only have our DJ’s sound system for our outdoor ceremony. My mom is trying to find somebody to sing a few songs at some point, but nothing in...

I’m having a Friday wedding on September 20th! Our RSVP by date is August 30th so we have plenty of time to give counts to caterer, bakery, track down missing RSVPs, etc. My invites should be here tomorrow and I am so excited!!! What’s the earliest...
