We've decided on a smaller wedding, something vintage-themed, so I thought, perfect! Our museum district rents out their Victorian historic mansion for events like weddings, and it's super affordable!...

I have now had the same dream 2 nights in a row. My brother proposed to his FW on Christmas at our parents house. I keep having this dream that a month before our date I find out that they are getting...

SO, yesterday was my moms bday and we hosted a party at our house. FH left for work part way through, so I was on my own running the whole thing. At the end FMIL made some rude comments to my mom (due...

FH was just notified by his doctors today that if he doesn't have epilepsy, and instead has this super minor thing that is 100% treatable/curable (next week's tests will show if he does or not), he...

I just got my free samples from minted.com, and one of the paper options is Museum Paper, which is like a thick cardstock (think printed plaques in a museum exhibit). Has anyone had or seen...

How do you plan on keeping the girls perky and secured in your dress? I was told that a strapless bra would be fine but I'm worried that it won't give me enough support and my girls are going to hang...

I love FH so so much and we are trying so hard to pull together a budget to pay for our wedding. We are cutting costs at every corner, I have a $200 dress budget, and I even offered to wear...

My fiancé and I are getting married this July. The whole party is outdoors at a family estate. I feel like I have thought of everything we may need and every "problem" that may arise. Please share any...

Hi there, I just need some... insight. I can't count on my family to help me and I'm a bit of traditionalist that feels that the husband shouldn't pay. I have $1k saved up so far... but that's...

Every place we can afford is booked through November, and every place with a spot open requires us to use their caterers, which is where we can't afford them. I looked at a hotel today that, if they...

Before I forget, I wanted to share some potentially money-saving beauty tips (I say potentially because this is location-dependant): -If you have a cosmetology school within a 25 mile radius, use it!...

Hey! I'm curious if anyone is whitening their teeth for the wedding or in general I guess? I've been wanting to try some teeth whitening products but figured I ask if anyone has had results. So! What...

Fh finally told his parents we're getting married....and they were pretty cool about it! He said they told him they're going to focus on his health and don't want to hear anything about wedding plans,...

I am on an extremely tight budget, so my dream venue is out of question (just to rent it alone eats up my entire wedding budget of $3-$4k). We want to have the ceremony and finger-food...

I just need to vent a little I guess. It's been so stressful taking on planning a wedding while I'm also working full-time AND attending school full-time! I feel like no one wants to help me. My FH...
