Activity of Kelly

Hi friends! Just here to vent. We thought it would be a fun day going to scan all the things we wanted. But it was a total downer. Did anybody else have this experience? 1. We don't need a lot. We've lived together for 4 years. Most of the stuff...

Wanna pick some people's brains here. I've never booked a block of hotel rooms before and wanted to know if my experience here is the norm. Our wedding venue is about an hour outside the city, so we wanted to have rooms available at a nearby hotel in...

I'm getting annoyed at my mom. She keeps insisting that I should add more people to the guest list. It started with my mom saying we should invite our old next door neighbors. They live in Kelowna now. They're still good friends of my parents. I...

Looking for opinions. We're not doing appetizers or a late lunch, but I looked into the cost of doing a snack type thing as an addition food item for our guests and thought a popcorn bar would be great. Its also not very expensive, and we could have...

We have a mixed bridal party. I have a guy friend standing up with me and my fiance has a girl friend standing up with him. She will be getting her hair and makeup done, so she'll have to be with us where the makeup and hair girls will be. But should...

My florist just announced her pregnancy. She's self employed, and its really great that she's actually able to take a bit of a maternity leave. She emailed all her 2019 couples to let them know that she'll be off work from December to February. We've...

We're doing our engagement photos early November, and I'm pretty stumped for what to wear. Google isn't terribly helpful as all the photos look like they're taken in much warmer climates. Its currently snowing...so I imagine a month from now it'll be...

So I'm a dummy. My fiance and I decided that we didn't want to pay our florist for the setup and delivery charges, thinking we would just...you know...do it ourselves. You know how they say hindsight is 20/20? I wish we just said yes to it because it...

Our wedding venue is about 45 minutes from the city, and I assume our bridal party, parents, etc will want to crash nearby and not drive home. My fiance and I were in a bridal party a couple years ago and the bride and groom actually paid for our...

Do you feel alone in the planning process? I wish my finance would take more initiative. But he's not a planner. I'm very much feeling the financial burden right now. We had to give our venue post-dated cheques for the payments when we booked them....

We're thinking of switching from buffet to family style. It will cost the same and we like that its somewhere between served and buffet, and its a bit more homey. Neither if us have ever been to a wedding that did family style though. Has anybody...

My Maid of Honour is pregnant and due in February!!! EEEEE!!!! The girls all ordered their dresses already, and her's is too big, so even if she doesn't loose a ton of the baby weight before next September, it should be no problemo to alter. My mom...

How early is everybody shopping for their wedding bands? Has anybody got them from a different place than where your fiance got your engagement ring? I'll be honest, when we went there, I was pretty floored at 1) The cost of a simple 14k wedding band...

Am I alone in thinking that weddings have gotten way out of hand with the gifts? Gifts and favours are nice, and great if you're doing them...but like, holy smokes...for everything?!? Bridesmaid and groomsmen proposal boxes Favours at your engagement...

Sorry. This is long. I wish I didn't have to deal with my chef's catering manager. If the food wasn't so great at this place...I would actually consider going with somewhere else. I don't trust her. She has already made a couple communication...
