Rhonda: Something Old, Something New…

Every wedding is unique.  They reflect the style of couple getting married, their culture and their families’ beliefs.  Of all the weddings that I’ve been to, no two were alike – not even remotely.  And I’ve been to a lot of weddings…everything from your traditional Protestant church wedding to casual outdoor affairs to a Jewish/Catholic ceremony [...]

Lauren: Curveball

As you can tell from my previous blog posts, I have been rather stressed out about wedding planning thus far. I wasn’t making decisions fast enough for my liking, and I was easily distracted by everyday life and work. I can’t tell you how many times I said to myself “OK, tonight is the night. [...]

Rhonda: Nothing Says ‘Wedding’ Like Little Plastic People

There is one question that I am dying to ask the wedding gods.  Just where in the world did the idea of a ‘cake topper’ come from?  Who decided that when you get married, you needed to invite a miniature plastic bride and groom to sit upon the top most layer of your wedding cake?  In [...]

Traci: Venue….vidi…vici…..

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 [...]

Rhonda: Feeling Reception-inspired

As I sit here sipping my Almond Joy coffee and watching last Friday night’s episode of ‘Fringe’ on the DVR, I am thinking about all that my mom and I accomplished over the past four days.  For sure, we were pretty busy, running from craft store to craft store to restaurant supply store to craft [...]

Lauren’s Bridal Blog: Date and Location

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. I can hear you all now: “uhhh…..where???” So here’s the story.  I went to high school at The Hill School, which [...]

Liz’s Bridal Blog: Grand Entrance, Toasts, 1st Dance

Two years ago on Thursday, we were engaged. Two months ago, we were married. Yikes! Time flies during and after wedding planning. Our cocktail (half) hour flew, people came up to us left and right, offering their congratulations and saying hi! I lost Jared during that time, but was happy we both were able to mingle with [...]

Rhonda: Mom’s in Town!

As I may have mentioned before, I’m originally from Western Pennsylvania, where the majority of my family still lives. Its approximately 4-4.5 hours away, depending on whose driving.  Unfortunately, I don’t get to see them as often as I would like because of work and school schedules.  That’s why I am super excited to have my mom [...]

Kate: Venue hunting

As I mentioned in my previous post, Steve and I haven’t done a ton of planning yet. But, we’ve got a venue! We started looking at the beginning of this year and visited 17 area venues in two months. (We had a bit of a mishap while moving back here so I did this entire [...]

Lauren’s Bridal Blog: Location Frustration

I haven’t written in a few days.  I’ve been busy freaking out. Dirk and I thought that we were settled on a venue even before we became engaged.  We inquired, and it is only available during the summer months. I always envisioned myself as a fall or winter bride, but I was willing to plan [...]
