Never too late to get your venue
Ashley, on February 12, 2022 at 12:50 PM

My fiancé and I just signed our contract for our venue and we’re not getting married until another 16 more months! It’s never to early

Hate this "limbo" stage!
Pat, on February 11, 2022 at 1:28 PM

Just a little rant/vent going. Wedding is May 2023, and I've gotten everything done that I can. I WANT to do more, but it's "too soon" according to the guide lines. UGH!! I want to converse with my...

Grace, on February 10, 2022 at 8:06 AM

My FH and I were already having a considerably small wedding with only about 70 people making the list. Lately I’ve been feeling overwhelmed even with that “small” number. Last night, my FH and I...

Pregnant MOH - I'm not selfish, I'm human.
Stephanie & Wesley, on January 9, 2014 at 11:02 AM

I know right off the bat I am going to get a lot of hate for what I am about to say. Some of you might have different opinions, and that is okay. But, I definitely need to vent about how I am being...
