How necessary is Garter/bouquet toss?
Ingrid, on July 11, 2018 at 3:23 PM

I’m already over my expected budget, and I can’t justify spending money buying not one, but TWO garters so that my husband can go up my dress in front of people. He’s shy, so I can’t picture him...

Undergarmets
Sarah, on August 14, 2018 at 12:19 PM

What are your recommendations for really good push up undergarments (big chested) for strapless dresses, and shapewear that really works for under your dress?

Anyone change jobs in the middle of engagement?
Tori, on August 14, 2018 at 11:26 AM

I am so confused. My current job I do not care for. I work too many hours and make way less money than at my old job. I have a week long vacation coming up in a couple months, not to mention all the...
