Dude, planning the honeymoon is freaking like pulling my fingernails off with pliers, then soaking my pulpy bloody fleshy nail beds in lemon juice, and then super gluing the nails back on just to do it all over again. Seriously.

In determining where we want to go I used three factors: Theme = BEACH; Cost = MODERATE; and Weather= NO EFFING HURRICANES. Seems simple right? Let’s…

Hi

First of all, I wanted to tell you that your site has been an indispensible resource thus far in my planning. Although I don’t live in NYC, I read daily as I particularly love to see the new product and gift ideas.

Which brings me to my next question:

Do you or your readers have any great ideas on where to find very inexpensive satin…

I bought these adorable bride & groom photo clips from Target, thinking that we might be able to use them as our cake toppers.

Some quick, low-quality mockups I made using printer paper.

With black and white printouts

With color printouts

With a printout of our engagement photo

I adore the photo clips by themselves and those are some of my favorite photos of us. But I’m really not quite…

First of all, I wanted to say I really enjoy your website and reading all the bloggers’ crazy wedding exploits- you really have to be a bride to relate. Your site is great, with lots of functionality and features

Now on to my question- I know there are lots of brides that read your blog that are regulars on the knot wedding boards. However, in…

Ok, so it’s common knowledge that the wedding industry is a bit of a racket. Everyone has heard the stories of how if you book a venue as a wedding they charge something like 20% higher than if you book a venue for “a party”; how flowers suddenly cost more; etc.

So I didn’t expect a wedding veil to be a complete bargain. (After all, it…

yeh-eun is still looking for an affordable NYC florist that offers free delivery, Jasmine is looking for a place that can turn a piece of her dress into a tie for her FH, vi is looking for a seamstress who can create a wedding gown, h is looking for a kickass trainer, and yukirei is looking for sparkling wine recommendations.

To add your question to the…

This weekend is my bachelorette party! We are headed to Montauk for the weekend to get in some proper beach and quality time together. It’s a small gathering of just the ladies in the bridal party minus one who is in California and is getting ready to head to Berkeley for law school in the next few weeks, so she is excused, but of course…

New York Metro is offering a 2 for 1 special for Shecky’s Girls Night Out event. I’ll be attending so say hello if you see me!

Weddingbee was quoted in an article yesterday:

But as weddingbee.com reports, “many wedding-videography companies are now offering live Webcasts, so anyone in the world can be ‘at your wedding.’ “

Haha I feel like an authority now.

I addressed 158 labels yesterday!

Unfortunately, we have only 100 invitations.

Ooh. That’s bad.

So, now I’m scrambling to make an extra 58 invitations.

I need them done by today. These are my options; what do you think I should do?

1. Hand draw a design, then scan it and print it out on my laser printer — punk rock style.

2. Hand write 58 individual cards.

3. Make color copies of…

I totally forgot to post photos for our programs!

Thanks to Bee I was able to do the programs on my own. It took me all night. And when I say all night, I literally mean ALL night but the end result was so worth it. The hard part was incorporating Korean translations into my program especially since I don’t have Korean font. Our minister printed…

People pick their bridesmaids for various reasons: you’ve been friends forever; she’s (or he’s) your best friend; she’s your sister; she supports you- the list goes on. I have a little from each group: I have my sister, my best friend since forever, the friend from grade school, my college roommates and a friend from post college.

When people hear I have six bridesmaids they tend…

In light of Mr. Bee’s post about the groom’s involvement, I thought we might do a poll.

At the launch of her new online poker site, Pamela Anderson revealed her plans to have four weddings with fiance Kid Rock in the next month - first in St. Tropez, then Malibu, then Detroit, and finally Nashville.
