Under eye makeup
Lauren in Planning, on April 10, 2019 at 8:10 AM

What makeup do you use to cover your dark circles under your eyes?? I'm not worried about puffiness as I dont really have that issue. It is just dark and I can never seem to get rid of them. I plan to...

Tie?

Reception Music
Lauren in Planning, on February 19, 2019 at 12:10 AM

Looking for fun, upbeat reception music that IS NOT rap/hip-hop. I already have tons of that genre on my playlist, but I want more variety.

Hotel Room Block
Lauren in Planning, on February 5, 2019 at 10:12 AM

I understand how to get blocks, and to watch the fine print on the contract to be sure I'm not liable for rooms not filled from my block. I'm not sure about how many rooms to block. We are thinking...
