LauraR in Wedding Attire, on June 26, 2017 at 7:51 AM

We leave for our honeymoon as soon as H wakes up (*twiddles thumbs*) so I thought I would take some time to post the few photos I have of the day. There was an issue with the iPod I gave the...

Moscow Mule without the mug
LauraR in Planning, on May 25, 2017 at 8:12 AM

I'm planning on serving wine, beer, and two signature drinks which will be white sangria and moscow mules. I'm not a huge drinker and when I do drink it's typically wine, beer, or sangria. So we just...

BAS!!
LauraR in Community Conversations, on May 8, 2017 at 11:06 AM

I had my first shower on Saturday and it was a blast. It was thrown by my mom, MOH, FSIL, and FMIL. There wasn't really a theme, they just tried to follow the overall vibe of the wedding. My mom did...

My MOH and FSIL are planning my shower for May 5 and asked if I could do the succulent favors. My MOH was going to do them but then we realized that I have an Ikea and could get the supplies for half...

I need to finally pick a sash - Help!
LauraR in Wedding Attire, on April 29, 2017 at 10:06 PM

I bought my dress back in July and found a headpiece that I love. But I've been putting off the sash since I really hadn't found one I loved that wasn't horrendously out of my budget. I combed Etsy...

LauraR in Planning, on April 20, 2017 at 8:30 PM

I finally sealed the last invite to mail them out tomorrow. It's such a relief to be done with them. I was really hoping to get them mailed out earlier but there was just too much work involved. I...

Would you still wear earrings?
LauraR in Wedding Attire, on April 14, 2017 at 7:34 AM

I'm going to start looking at jewelry for myself and my MOH (no BM's), starting at Charming Charlies. I had been planning to only wear earrings since I'm not a fan of necklaces. I wanted something...

Are these invites too casual?
LauraR in Planning, on March 29, 2017 at 11:59 AM

I know I want a simple invite with just calligraphy on the front. The back of the invite will have a floral design. I'm about to send the information to the seller to customize and I'm questioning if...

Two similar designs from the baker - Which one?!
LauraR in Planning, on March 24, 2017 at 11:53 AM

I'm planning on having slight nods to geodes (including the cake, table numbers, and maybe my shoes). The baker sent us one design for the cake and I questioned if there was enough geode influence and...

LauraR in Planning, on March 20, 2017 at 2:58 PM

We decided to do pie pops as our favors but there are so many flavors to choose from that I'm having a hard time deciding. My grandma is very well-known in the family for her pies so it's a slight nod...
