Hi, I need a little help and want to get your feedback. We are in the process of finalizing a venue for our wedding. Although the venue checks most (if not all) of our boxes and is the most logical...
Anyone found or used a website for whiskey glass favors that worked out well? We planned on doing a cigar/whiskey bar. We already have matches as a favor and wanted to add whiskey glasses as well. I...
I keep going back-and-forth on a second dress!! I bought one from Lulu’s and I really like it, but it pales in comparison to my actual wedding dress! I wanted something short and flashy for dancing,...
