Okay, readers, I really need you for this decision. I bought a sample of my dream dress online! Yay! When it came to me, I realized the dress was a in different color than what I had fallen in love with. The fabric is hand dyed and sometimes just comes out slightly different. Let’s say [...]
Happy Monday…after Thanksgiving….where you not only feel sad (like every other Monday) but also stuffed!!!! OR at least I do! But back to Venue, vidi, vici! I’m not exactly sure how that phrase would actually translate….but it’s either “I conquered the venue.” or “The venue conquered me.” Based upon my bridal experiences, maybe it’s a [...]
Hi everyone, Happy Monday! Sorry that I have been missing the blogging action so to speak. I promise that there is new post coming soon. I have been so busy…what….busy doing what you ask? Busy passing my driver’s test on the first try!!!! Booyah (yes, I did just use that word). At long last, [...]
I have finally made some meaningful headway in my wedding planning. We finally have a date a location! On September 29, 2012, Dirk and I will become husband and wife at The Hill School.

It seems that we are set on making this wedding be the most logistically frustrating as possible. I have chosen bridesmaids in four different time [...]
In the latest Partyspace newsletter, Eliza mentioned that I had written “what I could remember” about the ceremony in one of my latest posts. That got me thinking: is that wrong of me? Am I a “bad” bride? I think now that maybe I shouldn’t have used the word “remember.” My mind actually did not — and could [...]
As I have mentioned, Dirk is from Germany and has been living in the Philadelphia area for about five years. We want to incorporate German traditions into our wedding so that both cultures are represented. Somehow, I need to make sure that this does not translate to me wearing a Bavarian beer wench Halloween costume [...]
Happy Fridays, everyone! Thank God! It is clear to me now that there is right way to do wedding dress shopping and a wrong way to do wedding dress shopping. Unfortunately for me and everyone who has been wedding dress shopping with me, this fact only became clear to me AFTER I went wedding dress shopping. [...]
