Below is a mock up of my table numbers. I will be painting the frame gold. Do you think the number should be larger on the picture? For those wondering, my FH's last name is deer (spelled differently)...

Makeup trial tip questions
firstoneat56 in Wedding Attire, on May 20, 2017 at 9:32 AM

I am having my make-up trial today. The MUA has her own studio (not a salon) in her home. Should I tip for the trial? The trial is $80. It's my inclination to always tip, just wanted to get...

Wedding Cake No Show
firstoneat56 in Planning, on May 2, 2017 at 9:02 AM

My FH and I are in total agreement about skipping the wedding cake and having a big variety of desserts instead. Frankly, I've never tasted a wedding cake I've liked. My MOH can't wrap her head around...

Flowers suck!
firstoneat56 in Style and Décor, on April 18, 2017 at 6:46 PM

I am having a flower crisis. Okay, yeah, that may be over-dramatic given the political climate of the country, but it's still a problem that won't go away. Wedding planning has gone super smoothly and...
