Not a fan of my Engagement Photos
Kellie, on August 1, 2020 at 4:46 PM

Hi Everyone, Please help me decide if it’s the photographer or my own critical voice in my head when it comes to these photos. I just feel both my fiancé and I look awkward, like we don’t know what to...

Anyone have any ideas of things to do for a bachelorette party? I’m having a hard time coming up with any ideas since Covid-19 has lots of places shut down.

Rehearsal dinner?
Kaleigh, on July 9, 2020 at 11:53 AM

Is anyone else not doing a rehearsal dinner?? IMO they are a waste of money, and I am confident we all know how to walk down an aisle and stand on the appropriate side. Curious to see if anyone else...

Bridal Shower?¿
Emmagayle, on August 1, 2020 at 1:36 AM

Hi ladies! How far out from the wedding should you have your bridal shower? I keep getting answers that are all over the place, so typically how far in advance should you make your bridal shower?
