Kaylee, on February 8, 2020 at 1:22 AM

Wax Seals
Lydia, on September 30, 2019 at 6:18 AM

Does anyone have experience using wax seal stamps on invitations? Will they hold in the mail? Or will they be destroyed? Any diy tips are welcome.

Dress came in and it’s too big
Bridetobe2020, on January 11, 2020 at 11:48 AM

My dress got in yesterday. I love my dress so much but was discouraged when I tried it on and it’s one size too big. The bust was gaping, and it just hangs on my figure. I was between two sizes and...
