I just need a place to vent. Last night, my FH and I had our last meeting with the Reverend at the church we're getting married at. We're getting married at a church because A ) it's one of the only...

Phew - After reading some of the posts from some of the ladies here on this site, I was worried we wouldn't get many RSVP's back and I'd have to spend days calling most of my 250+ guests to see if...

Originally, I wanted a long cathedral veil, but it doesn't really 'fit' with my dress, so I've changed to a fingertip length veil. It was plain, but then my mama offered to hand bead the edge for me!...


Today my fiance and I went to tuxedo picked out for him and his groomsmen. We tried derks Formals, Tip Top Tailors, a private bridal salon tuxedo rental place and Moores. We by far had the best...

I need a bit of encouragement. I'm getting married in May and I'm making flower girl dresses for my nieces. What do you think? Are they going to stand out as obviously made by a non-professional? The...

Well - I finally got the last of my girls to order her dress from Davids Bridal last week. And now I hear DB has filed for Chapter 11. I know they said it's business as usual but my anxiety is on...


Had two of my bridesmaids over yesterday. 180 napkins folded and stuffed with our menu and candy favour bags, phew. Safely packed in boxes to take to our venue next year.


So I've gone over so many checklists out there, including the wedding wire one. I've made list upon list, and I still feel like I'm missing things from my planning list. What do you ladies (and gents)...

Anyone else feel like reality smacked you in the face when you reached 6 months out? Yikes! Time flies! It seems like only yesterday that we got engaged (but in reality it was almost 14 months ago!),...

Am I the only one who had given up on the idea of finding someone and getting married? I was almost 35 when I met my now-fiancé. People had stopped asking me when I was going to have kids, when I was...

So I am way ahead of schedule, but I like to be prepared and have time to practice. We want it to be humourous, and short. This is what I have so far - thoughts? Peggy: Jared and I would like to start...

Or maybe it's a planner-zilla? And one who can't spell! I got a chuckle out of it, and a reminder that I'm not nearly as bad as I sometimes think I am! Nope!


What did everyone do to reserve parking for the wedding party/family at the ceremony site and reception hall? I just realized that we'll need to do that (still 8 months to go so lots of time to figure...

Well, I finally gathered enough of my 'stuff' to do a test run of my center pieces. I'm hoping you amazing ladies and gents can give me opinions. Our theme is tropical/beach-y, and the tables will be...
