2959 days agoJust got back from a RD party where the bride to be's neon orange thong was very visable under her adorable white cocktail dress.

2996 days agoI follow my photographer on FB and Instagram because obviously I like his work. Lately, I've been feeling bridal envy and am worried that my wedding won't be "photography worthy". We don't have a lot of decor, our venue doesn't have a ton of cool...

2999 days agoMy wedding is located 12-hours away, so I will be driving with my dress. I hope to lay it as flat as possible, but my seamstress recommended that I purchase a steamer despite the fact that she pressed it at my final fitting. She recommended the...

3004 days agoSo pretty much my biggest nightmare happened last week. On Monday I got a call saying "where are you??? You are presenting in 5 minutes!". And I was like huh??? I completely, 100% forgot and did not prepare for a conference presentation that I agreed...

3007 days agoThis is a rant. I don't normally buy bras at VS, but I got a gift card for Christmas. I went and was fitted as a 34C. They were comfortable in the store, but once I got home and moved around, I couldn't get the straps to stay. So I went back and the...

3008 days agoI am looking for a dress to wear as a guest to a wedding. The wedding is pretty casual, but I need something one step up from a summer dress. I have been to Macys, Nordstroms, Dillards, H&M, and White & Black. I fit into junior's clothes, but dang...

3009 days agoI posted earlier this week about my seamstress woes. Despite going in for 7 fittings, she actually ended up charging me less than my original quote since we didn't hem the dress. I was certain she would add more for having to redo the top so many...

3011 days agoMy wedding is on July 23rd. I had my first fitting on March 25th and have had 5 subsequent fittings since then. My dress still isn't ready. My original quote was for bringing in the corset back, letting out the hips, hemming the bottom, adding bra...

3026 days agoI had zero intention of making my own wedding signs, but I found some matching decor for super cheap at Michael's. I am not crafty at all, so I am looking for tips on how to design and make a chalkboard sign. I found the instructions below on...

3030 days agoThese toilet paper wedding dresses are impressive! I can't imagine how many hours they take to make, but all I can think of is how screwed you are if it rains, you get wet, etc. But at least you'll be covered if the venue runs out of TP....

3035 days agoI found a song that I absolutely love, but FH is opposed to me walking down the aisle to a song with lyrics. He thinks that it will be hard to hear, which might be true because our ceremony is outside. The song is Found a Heart by Emily Hearn. Any...

3041 days agoI found a great pair of shoes, but I will need to put in a foot pad underneath the toe box in order to prevent the strap from slipping. I realize this is vain, but it's going to ruin the classic bridal shoe shot. Should I just wait to put the cushion...

3053 days agoAnyone else struggling with ceremony songs? I have googled best processional/bride entrance songs and have probably listened to 50 songs. Nothing feels right. FH doesn't like anything overly slow/dramatic/sad. He wants something upbeat and fast,...

3062 days agoI had my second dress fitting last week and I'm worried that my dress is too tight. It is a trumpet shape, so it is meant to be form fitting. However, I couldn't even bend over to do the strap on my shoe. She's going to let the dress out in the hips...

3075 days agoI have a lot of necklaces and earrings that are pretty tarnished. I have tried cleaning them with all of the Pinterest tips (baking soda, aluminum foil, etc), to little avail. I'm thinking about purchasing an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner, but they have...
