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...
Our photographer sent us the link at midnight last night and now both of us have to wait the WHOLE DAY today until we can look through them together after work. It will be worth it though! We have a...

Hi community! Just wanted to pop on here and thank you all for your feedback, advise, shared frustrations, etc along the way. Its been fun getting to know all of you in the past year! I'm so thankful...
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...

This post of a bit different coming from me. This past Saturday, I found out one of my best friends has terminal cancer. He's only 30. He doesn't have long. My heart is broken. He probably won't be at...
Question: Is it still a custom that all out of town guests are invited to the rehearsal and the dinner afterwards? Our rehearsal is later, like 7pm, so we're just doing a drinks and apps thing after...
We're in a position where our RSVP deadline is tomorrow, and we're thinking of extending invitations to a few more people that we weren't able to invite initially. We have an ENTIRE EMPTY TABLE! We...
Just over a month to go, and starting to feel very anxious about hair and makeup. I had my trial back in May, and wasn't happy with the results. In fact...I'm considering maybe changing hair and...

I had thought that since the invitations went out, we wouldn't hear anymore from the parents about who we HAVE to invite. WRONG! Will it ever end? My mom asked the other day if we received any regrets...
I'm so frustrated. Our Airbnb for our honeymoon just cancelled on us. She's taking her place off Airbnb due to a couple bad experiences. Good for her I guess. Crappy for us. She offered to honour our...
We just found out that our bartenders serve drinks in plastic cups. I don't really care about that as an aesthetic thing. I know some people might think plastic cups are a bit trashy for a wedding,...
I'm crossing some things off of the to do list, and one of those things is the gifts for the wedding party. I got all the girls these Kate Spade earrings to wear on the day, and then I also got them...
