I'm trying to cut the costs of our wedding in any way possible. One way we decided to do this was to send our RSVP cards that indicate the number of seats reserved for each family/couple and then the...
OK LADIES. I NEED TO KNOW HOW I CAN MAKE CHAIR SASHES. IS IT REALLY AS SIMPLE AS I THINK IT IS? CAN I ACTUALLY BUY FABRIC THAT IS PRE CUT AND JUST MAKE A BOW? MY VENUE RENTS THEM BUT FOR &# A CHAIR....
Anybody do a rose petal aisle? I'm looking for the best deal out there for rose petals. Freeze dried or fake. Either one, I just cannot afford the price the florists give.
I am 25 and the first person in my friend group and family getting married. I didn't even know welcome bags were a thing. I am having a wedding in North Carolina. My family is from Florida and his is...
I had this really cute idea that I would burn CDs with love songs that would be played at our wedding reception. Both my fiance and I grew up in this era and both love music. I'm wondering, however,...

Having a small outdoor wedding in the fall. We’re just doing a cake and punch reception. We have a cool rustic drink dispenser we’re using for apple cider. Now I’m trying to find something I can use...
Addicted to this site! Also can use to resell after the big day! Obviously in MD and surrounding areas only.
I have this dilemma...I made my invitations, and I thought I had a great idea when I made the RSVP cards small enough to fit in a pocket inside the invitation. The envelopes are 2.5" x 3.5", and I had...

Okay, so I've looked for some "fill your own" hourglasses, and holy crap they are over $100. I'm thinking about making 4 hourglasses and filling them with colored gems, or stones like what you...
We have obviously chose the famous sparkler idea! i love it and i am excited, but i do not know where i should put them! should i put them on the tables since they are tied with my matchbox favors?...
I was thinking about ordering sparklers to do at the end of the reception and maybe to get a couple photo ops for FH and myself. Is anyone else doing this? If so where are you getting yours? We are...
So as FH and I are leaving the venue and people are sending us off, what do you think would be best?? Confetti??? (I am pretty sure I may get told NO by the venue because of the cleanup factor)...
I know A LOT of people make tutus for little girls, I want to make a tutu dress for my flower girl. Anyone have any idea the level of difficulty?
All I need is 5 bouquets and maybe 5 boutineers. I was thinking about making them myself to save some money. I haven't priced it out completely yet, but is it actually worth it? Some of these...
