Wedding dreams/nightmares for both of us
Kaye in Planning, on June 20, 2018 at 9:07 PM

My FH has finally started having some wedding dreams. I've been having them for months. He dreamt that I convinced him to go to another dimension that was a little dangerous so that we could get the...

Back of invitation with welcome party invite and timeline
Kaye in Wedding Reception, on June 19, 2018 at 9:46 AM

Is it weird to include details for a welcome party on the back of your wedding invites? It seemed nice to not have to make up another invitation. It will be a drop in welcome party, but I am wanting...

Trial run for centerpieces
Kaye in Do It Yourself, on June 15, 2018 at 11:26 PM

My tables at the venue are small. Most fit 4-5 with 2 tables seating 6. So my arrangements must be small. Bought mint julep cups from a restaurant supply store. A dozen for $50. Planning to do...

5 mos to go! Where are you in your planning?
Kaye in Planning, on May 28, 2018 at 8:50 AM

Time is passing so fast! I can't believe that I'm exactly 5mos out. I finally have everyone booked and deposits have been sent. It's just a matter of getting everyone paid at this point. Hope to be...

hmua -why is this so hard
Kaye in Hair and Makeup, on June 4, 2018 at 1:22 PM

A short vent first. Then advice please. At first I didn't want a HMU because I thought the cost was unnecessary. After talking with my photographers in January, I decided to budget for one. I...

Earrings
Kaye in Wedding Attire, on May 29, 2018 at 3:50 PM

I'm a simple girl. I own 1 ring (soon to be 2). I have 2 bracelets and 2 sets of earrings. I'm thinking about wearing these with my dress. Do they totally clash? I thought about pearl studs but that...

Direction cards
Kaye in Planning, on May 28, 2018 at 10:32 AM

Are you all including direction cards? In this day and age, it seems to be a bit of a waste. Our venue is out in the country and there are quite a few different roads to get to the lodge and with...

Cake server
Kaye in Wedding Reception, on April 14, 2018 at 8:35 AM

Anyone find an awesome cake server? Did you get anything engraved on it?

Money and budget
Kaye in Planning, on May 20, 2018 at 6:35 PM

I originally was hosting a wedding between 30-40. Our numbers have quickly risen to 50-70. And our budget has gone from 5k to 10-12k because I was pretty clueless about expenses, etc. I've been...

Start on time or late?
Kaye in Wedding Ceremony, on May 18, 2018 at 7:34 AM

I'm the kind of girl that is pathologically early for everything. If I'm on time I actually feel late. Obviously I would never start my wedding ceremony early, but is it expected that it will be...

Making a run to the store for wine
Kaye in Planning, on May 1, 2018 at 4:03 PM

Holy moly! I'm just 3 days under 6 months until the big day. Friends I definitely didn't think would come are making flight arrangements. I'm excited and nervous as hell. Part of me feels a little...

Favors! Vote?
Kaye in Wedding Reception, on April 9, 2018 at 12:03 PM

My FH says we don't need favors because our gift is the meal and entertainment, but he's willing to let me do whatever I want. I would love to give our guests nice favors to thank them for coming....

Videographer diy
Kaye in Do It Yourself, on April 29, 2018 at 10:15 AM

Has anyone used those companies that rent out several cameras and then help you edit? I mainly just want our vows and a few toasts, etc. Probably would hire someone to help with this. I just can't...

Things just got "real"
Kaye in Planning, on April 25, 2018 at 6:30 PM

I just mailed the STDs. There's no going back now! It's just the kick in the pants I needed to get going on the vendors that I haven't booked yet.

Apple shape bridesmaid dresses
Kaye in Wedding Attire, on April 22, 2018 at 1:12 PM

My sister is my only attendant. She is a bit apple shaped. Smaller breasts (size b) and a very large waist. I have no clue what would look good on her. She is not one to go dress shopping on her own,...

Nervous and. Excited about Stds
Kaye in Planning, on April 20, 2018 at 6:30 PM

Wedding website is done and looks great. Envelopes are addressed and stamped. Yet, I find myself nervous to get them in the mail. I've gone over the budget 100 times. Did a mock seating arrangement...

Chairs?
Kaye in Wedding Reception, on April 17, 2018 at 10:12 AM

I want to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy at our wedding. My mother will be 92 and is super thin. Of course, super thin comes with a bony behind. My FHs father is a large man. He's over...

No Dancing?? What to do?
Kaye in Wedding Reception, on April 16, 2018 at 3:21 PM

I was thinking of hiring a DJ for our wedding, but my sweetheart has me second guessing myself. He says he really dislikes dancing, but is willing to "sway back and forth" if I want music. I offered...

Pinterest Infestation
Kaye in Planning, on April 9, 2018 at 10:02 AM

I've always said I want a simple old-fashioned wedding and that I don't want a Pinterest perfect wedding that has signs vomited everywhere and cuteness in every corner. And then I came across these...

Motivating Nightmares
Kaye in Planning, on April 10, 2018 at 11:37 AM

I still have so much to do. I need to book the officiant, the dj and the ceremony music. I also need to make a decision about the cake, but honestly that can be put off for some time. The main thing I...
