  • Name: Abby
    FI's Name: Andrew
    Hometown: Pawtucket, currently in MA though
    Wedding Date: 11.9.13
    Venue: Still searching...
    Favorite Vendor(s): Photography is a passion/hobby of mine so it was an area I was willing to splurge and something very important to me personally, as well as my FI. Options Photography, Susan and Lynda are AMAZING! I've been to other weddings they have done and they are friends of the family so I've seen a lot of their work and even worked with them for a brief period of time to help out.
    Favorite Part about planning: Seeing how excited people are for us, it makes me feel so loved. And I love being creative and figuring out how to make things instead of buying or just finding it cheaper.
    Least Favorite Part about planning: Waiting for people to get back to you.
    Best Wedding Advice: Don't get so wrapped up in planning a party that you forget the true meaning/purpose of the wedding. Try to not sweat the small stuff. Nothing ever goes exactly as planned and if at the end of the day you are married to the one you love, that's all that truly matters.

  • My screen name comes up all numbers! My profile was created when I got engaged 12 or do years ago! My name is Kasey Anniversary 4/20/02 Here to get info for pals wedding. Plain and simple. Need shower bachelorette advice. Haven't done this stuff in a long time!!!! Can't comment on vendors as their service may have changed in a decade. But I do see some that some nanes are still around so that speaks volumes. Alexandra's for example. Fatima worked magic by ordering my wedding gown in December and having it ready by the big day it was by a hair but ready as promised! And that shop also handled my cousins wedding back

    I've been waiting for these kids to decide to get married since the day I met him, they are so much in love and such a cute couple and I'm so excited he will finally be an "official" member of the family!

    Just thought I'd pop in here now and start gathering some info to give her.  She will be joining up here I'm sure and give you all their details then!  :)
