My mom told my aunt that the invitation was for her and my uncle only, not my almost 40 year old step-cousin. I haven’t heard if there was any more drama after that, but frankly I could care less. Never, EVER assume you are invited to anyone’s wedding unless the invitation has your damn [...]


Our invitations arrived in most of our guests’ mailboxes yesterday. Last night I get an e-mail from my mother saying my aunt e-mailed her asking if my step-cousin was invited. Uh, no? I haven’t seen this girl since I was about 13, and she was 16 and pregnant. She has a history of drug abuse [...]


My second dress arrived from David’s Bridal yesterday. I have to hand it to them, they ship VERY quickly. I placed my order on Thursday and had it on Monday. The dress is super cute and has a very vintage feel to it that I love. There’s just one problem. It doesn’t really fit.
I’m not [...]


Our invitations went in the mail today. One of the benefits of having a small wedding is that it took me less than an hour to assemble them! We had only the invite, reply card and reply envelope. I numbered the back of each reply card so in case I get any questionable responses, at [...]


I got back from my shower a couple hours ago and it was really above and beyond my expectations. Nicole, my maid of honor did such a wonderful job! I feel very loved and a I’m on a little bit of a sugar high! Enough talk, I’ll show you some pictures!

She had streamers up on [...]


I have to admit I made a major goof during my wedding planning. I’ve discussed my plans with my co-workers, and they’re not invited to the wedding. Now, before you judge too harshly, let me explain myself. I’ve been looking for a new job forEVER. When I got engaged last year, I figured I’d be [...]


I ordered the third dress today. I’m actually quite excited to get it and see how it looks on me! Best of all, I found a coupon code for free shipping so that saved me $13! W’hoo.
I really see myself in a short dress on the day, all day. Walking down the aisle without [...]


Well, yay!

The fine folks at Weddingbee chose my bio as their bio of the week! So, welcome to those of you who are coming here via my bio! And for those of you who haven’t seen my Weddingbee bio, you can view it here.


Thanks to all of you who left comments about my dress dilemma. I am leaning towards getting the dress from David’s Bridal. My only problem with the dress is like my original dress, it has a low-cut back. This means I’ll have to spend some cash to get an undergarment that doesn’t show under it. [...]


Which dress?

Even though I have already purchased a lovely dress for my wedding, I’m doubting it. It is a very pretty dress, but it’s also pretty uncomfortable. I’d also need to get a corset and REALLY high heeled shoes to make me tall enough so I don’t fall on my butt. I’d always planned on being [...]
