So on Sunday Husband and I were opening gifts, and found that one of his former colleagues had given us...gun parts. No, really. I have no idea what they are (Hub knows guns, so he does, and he said...
I just finished doing all of my vendor reviews, and was somewhat surprised to find that my 4.7 - 4.9 star reviews are among the "lowest" for all of my vendors. I loved my vendor team, but maybe I am...
I hope I'm not breaking any rules by just linking to my photographer's blog post, but hell, she did all the work for me, highlighting some of the best of her photos from our happy day! Other thoughts...
I swear FB99 and I must have been separated by birth, because we had almost the same wedding on the same day, featuring kilts and tea-length dresses and a whole lotta love all around! She and her new...
I’m 4’10” (first thing in the morning), fairly round, and while I like getting dressed up, I despise shopping. When I first started planning my wedding, the thought of going into a bridal salon to try...
So those family friends I asked FH about, THREE TIMES? Yeah, turns out his mom did want to invite them after all. I found this out this morning, 28 days before the wedding, and almost a week after the...
I think I have reached decision-making saturation, so please just help a sister out with a sanity check. I'm not changing my name, so it seems somewhat odd to me to be introduced at the reception as...
[...and I do, too! A welcome chuckle in the middle of RSVP anxiety.]
My BFF wanted to throw me a bridal shower, but I didn't want one, so I suggested a ladies' night dinner out, followed by optional shenanigans at the local casino. My intention was most certainly not...
I booked an appointment with a MUA this weekend, because I rarely wear makeup, and when I do, it's just mascara, lipstick, and some eye shadow if I'm feeling fancy, so clearly I need help on the big...
FH's brother is recently divorced. His ex-wife will not be invited to the wedding (awkward!), but I adore her, and would love to celebrate with her in some way. Would it be grossly inappropriate to...
I've been a busy little 'cat addressing my invites, and the end is in sight, whoo!! but I'm stuck on one... FBIL is fairly recently divorced. His mom (FMIL) told us at Easter that he had been seeing...
So I've started the tedious project of hand-lettering my invitations. I've got a bee in my bonnet to do this myself, but I'm having some anxiety, because I'm not a professional calligrapher. I just...
This past weekend FH and I made our favors. We are regulars at the local glass studio, so with two hours' "private lesson" time we were able to make 60 of these pressed-glass star...
Quick question: I will be having a bagpiper at my ceremony and an Irish trio during the cocktail hour. Both will of course be extended a courtesy to stay for the reception if they like, but do I need...
Last night I was chatting online with a couple of good friends about wedding plans. I sent them the link to the wedding website, and Friend 1 comes back into the conversation with "I booked my hotel!"...
