Hi ladies! My fiancé and I got engaged in March. In February of 2016 my father was diagnosed with stage 3-4 esophageal cancer and he lost his battle in December of 2016. I struggle A LOT from time to...
I am in the early stages of planning my wedding, and I am curious as to the general opinion around favors, and if they're necessary. I'd rather allocate that money towards a Late Night Snack for...

When I was young, my dad was my favorite parent. However, after he left my mom our relationship quickly declined. For awhile as a teenager I lived with him but it didn't really seem like he put much...
