I’ve neglected this series for awhile, but now I’m back! This post will cover songs that would make great grand entrance songs for either the bridal party or the bride and groom. Like most of my playlists, they focus on mostly indie and Brit rock, with a bit of pop thrown in.

Weddings bits and bobs
Today I received my adorable Moo cards in the mail! They came in a wee little plastic box and are too cute for words. They much better fit my Scrabble tile look as they’re half the size of the business cards I was going to use. I took a photo, you can see it under [...]

My latest wedding accomplishment is finding a place to have a rehearsal dinner in Harford County, MD. There are options. But a lot of them are expensive or look like they haven’t been decorated since the 1980’s. Or both. Yeesh.
So, to help other area brides, I’ll list some of the places I’ve found, or [...]

The verdict: My dress
When I finally got to see it on Friday, I was happy to find that my dress actually fit! Well, almost. I basically need a better bra/corset, as the straps were loose, and it was a bit tight in the stomach area, but I’ve gained some weight since I was measured, so that wasn’t a [...]

Mooooooo.
Now that we’re moved in, I’ve had the chance to look at some wedding stuff that arrived prior to the chaos. One of those things was a shit-ton of loose Scrabble tiles for my escort cards. These little buggers are quite in demand, as people use them for crafting, so I’m hoping I can [...]

Let’s rehearse!
Next on my wedding to-do list is to find a spot for our rehearsal dinner. Honestly I wish I could just relegate this to my future mother-in-law, but seeing as she’s never stepped foot in my “home turf”, where we’re getting married, it’s up to me.
I’ll talk about my experiences with actual vendors when [...]

Mother, don’t make me kill you!
Yesterday I had a mild freak-out yesterday when I tracked my dress and DHL tracking said it was being delivered to the wrong city! I contacted Milly Bridal and they assured me they sent it to the right address. Today my dress arrived, which is a lot quicker than I expected!
I tell my mother to [...]

I rarely post about things I’ve found on other blogs because I personally hate it when I’m reading my blog reader and see the same information over and over again. That said, yesterday’s post on A Practical Wedding featured some information that was too awesome not to post again.
The post was about whether or [...]

What not to wear
Jeremy’s cousin was married over the weekend. We didn’t attend the festivities as they live a few hours a way and frankly we’re still adjusting to our new life together, so the thought of the trip was exhausting to me. We went to visit his parents yesterday after they returned and they showed us photos [...]

Dress update
I mentioned previously that my dress is coming from Milly Bridal. I tracked my order earlier this week and noticed that it said I was supposed to get my dress on 4/28, which has obviously come and gone, so I e-mailed them. As usual, I got a prompt response saying that my dress had been [...]
