Jamie Rose, on July 12, 2015 at 8:25 PM

Pancakes, on July 5, 2015 at 4:47 PM

Brenda, on July 6, 2015 at 1:12 PM

So I took my dress and went to an alterations place to get a consultation and got a big shocking price that I can't get over. I am going to get some second opinions but I was not ready to pay...

Help me pick a new ring

L, on July 6, 2015 at 7:45 PM

My FI got me an absolutely beautiful ring for our engagement, but his hours at work just got cut significantly, so now he can't afford the payments, which unfortunately means, we have to return it. He...

Private User, on July 1, 2015 at 2:29 PM

Working on compiling addresses and narrowing down the guest list when I had this lovely realization. If every adult comes with a 1 the count is 290. If every adult brings all their children count goes...

M&SC, on July 1, 2015 at 7:47 PM

I have been researching HMUAs & one in particular is quoting a very discounted price because she is a friend of a friend ($225 for trials & day of hair & make up). She is awesome at what she...
