I have a dilemma.

I don’t really know what I’m going to do with my wedding dress. I mean, I loved (LOVED!) my dress and yes, there are some sentimental attachments that I have developed in the past few months. However, am I really going to wear it again? And is anyone else really going to wear it? Will my daughter (if I have a daughter)…

I’ve seen this question on many boards before, but I never seem to get a good answer.

There was a guest at our wedding who did not send us a gift. Not that we expected gifts from everyone, but this particular guest said that the “gifts are on the way” during the wedding. We have not received anything from this guest. I’ve called the registries and…

I am not a picture taker. In fact, about half the time on our honeymoon, I didn’t even have my camera on me. Yes, I am horrible! We ended up with only 2 good pictures of the two of us from the entire honeymoon! But I will post about it anyway…

We got complimentary champagne upon…

I had so much help in planning my wedding, but to tell you the truth, you have no idea how your day is going to turn out. Sure, a few minor details were missed. And of course, I would change some things, in retrospect. But I know there were more than a few things that I did right. This is where talking to other brides,…

To all the Houston readers,

I will be in Houston from December 29th to January 1st. I know it’s just a couple of nights, but if there is enough interest, I wanted to have a Weddingbee meetup.

Please let me know if anyone is interested in meeting up on Saturday night (December 30th) by emailing me at butterfly@weddingbee.com. If there are enough replies, we will decide…

Has anything changed since we’ve been married? Well, not really. We have a new apartment, but other than that, our lives are pretty much the same. But we did recently merge our bank accounts together and now I’m learning to cope with sharing accounts. I can no longer go on a shopping spree without knowing that it affects someone else too. Although I must say,…

I was thinking about my wedding the other day….who am I kidding. I think about my wedding every day. Why? Because I can’t wait to get my pictures, and when I start thinking about all the beautiful shots, I start playing the wedding over and over in my mind. Also I went to Mrs. Snail’s wedding this past Sunday, so I’ve been surrounded by weddings.

Anyway,…

With the months and months of planning, you just don’t think that anything is going to go wrong on your wedding day. Even though everyone tells you something will go wrong, you just can’t conceivably imagine what could go wrong. I mean, I am pretty organized and I had a schedule of the entire day printed out for each person in the wedding party. Seriously,…

Ah!! How could I forget about my paper and invitations vendor?

Invitations and Other Paper Items - Custom-Programs
Oh, how I loved my invitations. Unfortunately, due to a small mistake, I will have no professional pictures of them. Boooooohoooooo! I will, however, have pictures of my escort cards, menus, table cards, and programs.

Here are the rest of the reviews!

Wedding Dress - Casablanca (MyrJan Bridal)
I absolutely loved my wedding dress. The alterations were done by Fancy Cleaners (check the Tuesdays “Sales” blogs for a discount!). Everything about the dress was perfect! The veil was from MyrJan and the tailor altered it because I didn’t like the original length too much. MyrJan Bridal was good to deal with as a…

Ok - I finally have some down time now. Exams are over, my official honeymoon is almost over, and everything goes back to normal on Monday. Between now and Monday, I thought I would write some more about my wedding. So let’s talk vendors.

Overall, I was realllllly happy with all my vendors. But here are the details anyway.

Photo/Video - 5 West Studios
I absolutely loved them! 5…

Oh my - I cannot believe that I am back already from my honeymoon. And I’m actually sitting in class as I write this.

Anyway, our honeymoon was absolutely wonderful. I spent a lot of time sleeping in, while my husband worked on his school papers and presentations. Yes, we were working while on our honeymoon. Well, he was working - I procrastinated.

Our first three…

I am sitting in my hotel room at the Ritz in PR on the first night of my honeymoon, and I’m blogging. Hahahaha. Seriously though, my photographer sent me a photo teaser and I couldn’t help but share!!!

Enjoy!!! (click for a link to a larger image)

Hello Weddingbee readers!

Yup, I am now a married woman. The wedding itself was soooo wonderful. I had one minor (really minor, I swear!!!) temper tantrum because people were running late and not sticking to the schedule/plan I gave them. But otherwise, things went just fine.

Some of my favorite moments.

• How I almost forgot to bring my husband’s wedding ring to the venue.
• My entire bridal party…

So it seems like there may be some chance of rain on our wedding day. I’ve been telling myself over and over that rain is good luck, pictures in the rain look wonderful, a big bright umbrella will really liven up the pictures, etc. But in my heart, I don’t want it to rain.

Since we are staying at the W in Times Square, I…
