Kaylie in Community Conversations, on July 28, 2016 at 8:03 AM

Almost ten weeks since the wedding and I finally got my photos back!! I’m personally a big fan of BAM’s that give a detailed recap/advice, so I’m going to be one of those girls, but feel free to...

Running a ceremony without a coordinator.
Kaylie in Do It Yourself, on May 13, 2016 at 12:51 PM

I've posted a couple random questions regarding this here and there, but I wanted to get some advice from those who went through this or are going to be. My reception venue has a coordinator who takes...

First-look logistics help!
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on April 4, 2016 at 5:30 PM

So we are trying to plan our timeline and the logistics are tough because we only have our photographer for 5 hours. Our hotel is 20 minutes away from the photo location and ceremony site. We have a...

Another BAS! *With hair and makeup trial*
Kaylie in Community Conversations, on March 22, 2016 at 8:14 AM

I know quite a few of the lovely ladies on here had their showers this past weekend, so I'm sure there will be quite a few BAS posts this week. I figured I would contribute mine! I don't have many...

Ugh. About to show up to my own wedding in sweatpants. Hating my dress.
Kaylie in Wedding Attire, on March 17, 2016 at 5:39 PM

I don't know what I'm looking for here other than to vent because I was basically in tears earlier. Silly emotional wedding-brain moment. I bought a dress over a year ago. It was strapless and I...

Limited Photography package and timeline
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on March 14, 2016 at 9:13 AM

Due to budget constraints, we are going with our photographer's most basic package that only covers 5 hours. This will basically cover the tail end of getting ready, first look and formal portraits,...

Sorry but I need to vent about my shower!
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on March 1, 2016 at 10:59 AM

I'll start by saying I absolutely hate people going out of their way for me or feeling like people are stressing because of me. If it were up to me I wouldn't even have a shower. But of course I...

There are good people left out there!
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on February 29, 2016 at 3:28 PM

A few of you may remember I posted about opinions on chair covers. After some unexpected expenses came up, we were trying to find some areas to cut a little from our budget and decided chair covers...

How much control did you give your DJ?
Kaylie in Planning, on February 18, 2016 at 6:05 PM

Well, the title kind of speaks for itself. Obviously we have to choose the important dance songs, cake cutting, etc. And I'm definitely making a do-not play list. How crazy are you going with the...

Naked Chairs. Opinions?
Kaylie in Style and Décor, on February 17, 2016 at 2:56 PM

I mentioned a few days ago how we were kind of up in the air on chair covers. I emailed my venue coordinator to see if she had any pictures of the room set up without chair covers, since the one time...

Bar Closed during dinner..options?
Kaylie in Wedding Attire, on February 5, 2016 at 4:12 PM

Our venue's open bar package includes premium open bar for 4 hours for a 5 hour reception. This means the bar closes down for 45 minutes during dinner and 15 minutes before the end of the reception....

Welcome Bags
Kaylie in Do It Yourself, on January 28, 2016 at 12:34 PM

I know this has been posted before, but I couldn't find anything recent and wanted a fresh perspective. Is anyone doing them? We have 30 rooms blocked off and I expect most of them to be filled, but...

Really Wedding Wire??
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on December 16, 2015 at 12:53 PM

Anyone else just get this email? So much talk on these forums about how tacky cash or honeymoon registries are and then wedding wire sends this email. Smh.

Mismatched wedding band and engagement ring?
Kaylie in Wedding Attire, on October 16, 2015 at 12:12 PM

My engagement ring was my grandmother's and I absolutely adore it but unfortunately it's yellow gold which isn't as popular anymore. As FH and I are looking for our wedding bands I'm finding it...

Attended a wedding Saturday...most confusing bar situation ever.
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on September 21, 2015 at 12:35 PM

I'm posting about booze again. I swear I'm not an alcoholic. FH and I went to his cousin's wedding Saturday. 180 people, relatively formal. They make really good money and went all out. However I...

How many more etiquette rules can they break?? Vent
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on September 4, 2015 at 6:59 AM

I’ve tried to refrain from venting about this, and I’ve lasted about 6 months but I can’t take it anymore so here goes. My absolute best friend is getting married Oct. 10. I love her to death but she...

Ceremony start time/hotel check in issue
Kaylie in Planning, on July 31, 2015 at 9:41 AM

So my reception starts at 5. As of now I am leaning towards a 3:30 ceremony invitation time. We are providing a shuttle from the hotel to the ceremony, reception, and then back at night. The hotel is...

Paper Flower Bouquet
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on August 12, 2015 at 2:51 PM

I'm trying to add little unique touches to our wedding that showcase FH and I's nerdiness, without the wedding being over the top nerdy. I want to have a paper flower bouquet made with pages from...

Invitation Opinion
Kaylie in Do It Yourself, on August 7, 2015 at 10:44 AM

I know it's early for invitations, but I want to have the design ready so that if they run a sale I can buy them. I was hoping to do away with the reception card to save some money and I'm just...

Personal Experience Regarding cash/gifts
Kaylie in Etiquette and Advice, on July 28, 2015 at 7:31 AM

I guess you could consider this a PSA to ALL these brides that are so concerned about getting money. I have been to close to ten weddings in the last 5 years or so. At each of these weddings, the gift...
