Mrs. Firefly's Picture
Mrs. Firefly, New York Age and Occupation in 06: 31, Attorney Fiance's Age and Occupation: 35, Finance Engagement Date: April 11, 2004 Wedding Date: June, 2006 Venue: Battery Gardens About Me: I was born in the city of Donetsk in the former Soviet Union (now the Ukraine) and grew up in Brooklyn. Many of my parent's friends are from Russia and the Ukraine as well. We want all of our guests to have a great time and hit the dance floor so we've hired a band that can play both Russian and American music; not to mention a mean rendition of the Gypsy Kings and chair-raising hora!
About Mrs. Firefly

A few years ago, Mr. Firefly’s cousin from the Boston area had a wedding with a cash bar. Cash bar?!?!?!??! Like, they made you pay for your drinks????

I was shocked; I had never heard of such a thing. Cash bars would simply never fly in New York. If you need to save money (and heck, who doesn’t), you decrease your guest list, skip the favors,…

Carnival Wedding

March 31st, 2006 @ 5:54 pm by Mrs. Bee

I LOVE carnival food - hot dogs, cotton candy, caramel apples, churros - I love it all. In fact I would love to throw a carnival themed party one day complete with games. So what does that have to do with weddings? For an outdoor summer wedding, I think renting a snow cone maker is a really fun idea.

The kids will love it, the adults…

Hello from Mr. Bee

March 31st, 2006 @ 2:34 pm by Mrs. Bee

Hello, this is Mr. Bee. Mrs. Bee isn’t feeling well today, so she asked me to guestblog… and like the DH that I am, I said “yes”.

It’s been a lot of fun watching Weddingbee grow. The site’s only been live about two months or so, and the response has been tremendous! Traffic in the second month is over 6x what it was in the first…

A Perfect Match

March 31st, 2006 @ 1:20 pm by Mrs. Bee

2 pyromaineiacs may have the hardest name to spell, but they do have the cutest matches.

I love cute matches because they look nice next to a candle. Another good, inexpensive favor idea.

Peonies

March 31st, 2006 @ 12:53 pm by Mrs. Ladybug

The main flower that I picked is the Peony. I love it. I love its fullness, and the size, and that perfect pink and dark pink shade. I’m mixing it with white hydrangeas as well. I know a lot of you have also picked this flower for your wedding as well so here are some photos for inspiration.

Pre-Wedding Facial

March 31st, 2006 @ 8:31 am by Mrs. Bee

I got a deep cleansing facial 4 months before my wedding and another one 1 month before my wedding. I’ve had many facials at upscale day spas, and never noticed a significant difference in my skin. But the facials I got before my wedding were with the on-staff facialist at my dermatologist’s office - no frills, but the results were absofuckinglutely fantabulous!!

I swear I’ve never…

Wedding Points

March 30th, 2006 @ 6:03 pm by Mrs. Bee

I spoke with someone from Wedding Points at the New York Metro Showcase yesterday. From what I understand, you register your credit cards/debit cards online with wedding points. Every time you purchase something from a participating store (Best Buy, Dell, eLuxury, Drugstore.com, Home Depot, Office Depot, Target and more) either in-store or online, you’ll receive points that you can use towards cash, gift certificates, and…

Shoe Clips

March 30th, 2006 @ 3:41 pm by Mrs. Bee

With designs inspired by fashion icon Audrey Hepburn, Absolutely Audrey carries a line of vintage and modern shoe clips to spice up your footwear.

They have a bridal line, but their shoe clips can easily jazz up any look. I think they’d look great on plain black pumps, with jeans, on a purse… the possibilities are endless. They would even make a nice bridesmaids gift. Tres…

Merging Finances

I was planning on writing a post about the pros and cons of merging finances after marriage, but looks like thenest beat me to it - they have a helpful article today on joint vs. separate accounts.

Also check out their tax prep guide which tells you the pros and cons of filing taxes individually or jointly. I actually sent an email to my CPA…

New York Metro Wedding Showcase

March 30th, 2006 @ 1:01 pm by Mrs. Bee

Last night I went to the New York Metro Wedding Showcase. They didn’t have as many vendors as The Bridal Event I attended last month, but the atmosphere was more upscale - they had high quality vendors and free wine and champagne. I also got to taste Godiva’s new chocolate wedding cake favor - delicious with a soft chocolately center.

Check out the gift bag…

Also, I'm an obsessive compulsive when it comes to crafts. And not just the ordinary kind of obsessive compulsive who needs to have everything even and aligned. No. I've gilded the heads of pins to make sure they looked properly antique. Gilded them. Then coated them in german glass glitter. I am that crazy.

Registry Madness

March 30th, 2006 @ 12:49 pm by Mrs. Caterpillar

Mr. Caterpillar and I have been trying to get our registries together, and it’s taking forever. So far we’ve selected silver and china from Michael C. Fina and some bakeware from Williams Sonoma. Part of the problem is that I don’t actually believe people will purchase things from our registry. Yellow people always give cash, which is really ideal; and everyone else will just laugh…
