Look at you, Ms. Thing! You found a great guy and the two of you are hopelessly in love. You’ve successfully had the “State of the Union Address” with him and it went smashingly. You look at him and you see more than a boyfriend.  Read more>

Your Ultimate Wedding Cocktail Guide

The man of your dreams popped the question, you said yes (or maybe you asked him and he jumped at the opportunity…!) now a whirlwind of celebration is underway.  Read more>

How many times have you been at a wedding and everyone is waiting for the bride to walk down the aisle and it keeps getting delayed? You start to wonder if it’s still going to happen. Did someone get cold feet? What you don’t know is that the bride might be in the back freaking out over her hair! Yes, you got it, I said hair! I have personally been a guest at two different weddings and gotten pulled into the back room by someone who hears that I’m a hairdresser, trying to salvage a bridal hair-do gone wrong shortly before the ceremony starts. I can only tell you that this could have been greatly avoided had the bride taken the same care to plan her hair as she did her dress.  Read more>

The location will be gorgeous, the food will be delicious, the DJ will rock the house, and the guy…sigh. He will be perfect in every way. But do things ever go the way you plan them? I would like to say yes, but sadly, I know this isn’t the case. In my experience, parties and occasions always turn out differently from the way you envision them. For example, you invite your friends over, everything is going well, and then BAM! Katie and Susie are screaming at each other over Billy, and Marsha is off crying in the corner because Emily says she likes Mary more than her. Drama.  Read more>

Variety is the spice of life and that holds true with gift registries…weBEgirls has some great ideas to take the stress off of the gifting side of tying the knot.  Read more>

The wedding plans are made and you’re sporting a beautiful ring – all is perfect with the world. Hopefully. But, your friend Alexandria just told you her husband just left her and is asking for half of her house in the divorce agreement. Wow! That’s not very nice! She worked really hard to buy the house before they were married. Should you ask for a pre-nup?  Read more>
