David's Bridal preservation kit
Vanessa in Wedding Attire, on May 5, 2015 at 3:59 PM

I feel like after month, it is about time to clean and preserve my dress. The place I bought my dress wants to charge $200. A friend of mine told me that David's does it cheaper so I saw online...

PSA: Hair Extensions on Living Social
Vanessa in Wedding Attire, on May 4, 2015 at 6:25 PM

I know a lot of people ask questions about getting extensions. I got some at Sallys (and spent a lot of money) but I saw these today and ordered them since I have lightened my hair since. I figured...

BAM (just a month overdue)!
Vanessa in Community Conversations, on April 24, 2015 at 4:21 PM

It has been a few weeks so things might be a little fuzzy. The day was magical! I was nervous and stressed out in the morning so I didn't eat much and may have been a bit on the cranky side (it...

Married ladies... are you bored now?
Vanessa in Planning, on April 24, 2015 at 4:38 PM

After spending all that time planning the wedding, and swearing I would never do anything like that again, I feel kind of bored now. Anyone else in the same boat? I also feel like planning something....

I feel so out of the loop!
Vanessa in Community Conversations, on March 11, 2015 at 11:55 AM

I don't think I've gotten onto the forum in a few weeks! Work has been busy (training someone to do my stuff while I'm away for the wedding and honeymoon), and life has been crazy! What have I...

Freeze dried vs fresh rose petals
Vanessa in Planning, on February 18, 2015 at 1:27 PM

I'm looking into petals for my aisle. I am not allowed to use silk since our ceremony will be outside at a golf course. I thought I wanted fresh petals, but freeze dried seem to be a bit cheaper. In...

I can't find FG shoes!
Vanessa in Wedding Attire, on February 9, 2015 at 6:30 PM

I have 6 flower girls (nieces and sisters) that I've been looking for shoes for. I can't find anything at a reasonable price that I like. Any suggestions on places to look that I may not have thought...

We pulled everything out!
Vanessa in Do It Yourself, on January 22, 2015 at 12:57 PM

My mom got to down last night and brought all my bouquet flowers with her. So after FH went to bed (and was for sure asleep) we got my dress, FH's suit, Jr BM dress, FG dresses, my shoes and my...

DIY Cake Stand
Vanessa in Do It Yourself, on January 20, 2015 at 11:03 AM

We had our tasting and consultation last night. AMAZING! I've never seen my FH devour a cake like he did last night! After we picked our flavors and design, I asked her about cake stands. I asked if...

Gift Exchange

With 80 days left, I feel like I should start thinking about what to get FH for a gift. People still do this right? What are you ladies giving your FH?

Bachelorette Etiquette
Vanessa in Etiquette and Advice, on January 2, 2015 at 1:31 PM

So I live in Las Vegas but I'm having my bachelorette party up in Seattle (where I grew up). We are working on the guest list and I was wondering what thoughts people had on this. I know you shouldn't...

Is it just me?
Vanessa in Do It Yourself, on December 29, 2014 at 1:15 AM

There seems to be a lot more people with the standard ring photo lately. I'm less inclined to view a post if there isn't a personalized photo for the OP because I assume it is all spam. There also...

Rehearsal Dinner. Did you host? Did you skip?
Vanessa in Etiquette and Advice, on December 17, 2014 at 7:07 PM

I brought up a rehearsal dinner to FH last week and he groaned. I told him that typically the grooms parents pay but seeing as my parents aren't paying for the wedding, I wasn't going to hold them to...

Hour of writing?
Vanessa in Etiquette and Advice, on November 11, 2014 at 1:03 AM

I plan to order my invitations this week so I've been thinking... Do I want to spend a lot of time handwriting names and addresses, or do I just want to create a clear label? FH has terrible...
