Having my makeup and hair trial on Friday after work. Any tips? What should I bring with me?

Is anybody else feeling guilty about having a registry and bridal shower? My mom just sent out the invitations, and now I feel totally weird about the whole thing. I don't like asking for things or being the centre of attention. My mom just keeps...

Hi Friends! My parents are hosting a couple's shower for my fiance and I at the end of June. The theme is "I do bbq". Decor is not my mom's forte, so she was kinda asking what we wanted. When I google for ideas, I'm hit with over the top red and...

We got our invitations from Minted, which comes with free envelope addressing. AMAZING! I sent our guest lists to both sets of parents to double check everything. So here we are. Invitations ordered. Received them about a month ago. Put them all...

So we just got our Rehearsal date and time confirmed, and its 7pm the day before our wedding. Since we wont be done until 8pm, I was thinking that we could do drinks and apps at a restaurant after, rather than a full dinner thing. That's a good plan...

This sucks. We haven't asked much of our bridal party at all. I didn't even make anybody go shopping for dresses, we decided via email and ordered online. My parents are hosting our co-ed BBQ shower for my fiance and I. My mom emailed our bridal...

Our venue only has 6 1-hour slots available for rehearsals, and they're given on a first come/first serve basis. I thought I was being nice by sending my bridal party a doodle poll for their availability, but everybody is just putting their favourite...

We have a really good friend who is a talented musician and singer who we were going to ask to play music for the ceremony. My fiance in particular wanted her to play one of his favourite songs as I walk down the aisle. We haven't asked her yet...

My fiance and I just booked our honeymoon accommodations and we're stupid excited!!! We're taking a full 2 weeks, heading out to Banff, then Kelowna/Lake Country for some vinyard hopping, hiking, etc. Our wedding is on a Friday, and we decided to...

How many days are you taking off work leading up to your wedding day? We want to escape to the mountains for a couple weeks following the wedding, so I'm not sure how many days I want to take off before the wedding. In 9 whole years, my fiance...

I think its important for us to get away SOMEWHERE after our wedding. While we'd like to go somewhere really great like Greece, its not something we can afford right after the weeding. So I thought we could do a little roadtrip out west for a mini...

Wondering if anybody is wishing they could go back and un-ask people to be in their party. I kinda wish we kept it simple and just had a maid of honour and a best man, and no other bridal party members at all. One of our party members lives in the...

I didn't think it would be super difficult deciding who gets a plus one, but dangit, it is! Also annoyed at people who assume they get one. My fiance called his aunt to get his cousin's addresses from her, and he asked "what's Taylor's girlfriend's...

Our wedding venue is an hour outside the city, so with that comes travel fees for our vendors, which I get. I was just given a quote from a vendor with a travel fee rate of $50 per 10km outside of Winnipeg. By my calculations, that comes to...

Oh man you guys. I'm overwhelmed. I just got back home from a consultation with a day-of coordinator. Originally, we weren't going to have one, but as the day approaches, and I see the number of vendors we have to juggle...I just want to enjoy my...
