Kellie Martinez, on March 15, 2019 at 10:39 AM

I’m honestly just curious to see how many of you have a do not play list you’re giving to your wedding DJ. & why unless it is too personal of course. My dad is a DJ and rarely has clients that...

Mismatched bridesmaids
Melissa, on March 8, 2019 at 12:31 PM

Has anyone else done mismatched bridesmaids in the same dress but alternating colors or just various shades of the same? That’s what I’m leaning towards but want to see pictures.

LaLa, on March 8, 2019 at 4:37 PM

Ahh! Our engagement photos are taking place this Sunday. Also my trial for hair/makeup. Any tips on how to get comfortable in front of the camera? I am horribly un-photogenic and camera shy. Also I'm...

Average price for wedding and reception
Quasia, on January 7, 2019 at 1:50 PM

I'm a little confused on how much to spend for everything. What's an average price? I was looking at a few venues and they want $10,000 and up. I feel like that's excessive for a wedding. When...
