@labro When we were re-doing our bathroom in the old house, we wanted to keep it really cheap because we were selling the house. We didn't want high end, we just wanted not 1950 so it would sell. We had a contractor come over and quote us $4500 JUST for the plastic/fiberglass shower walls. We were like are you out of your…
Re: Vintage Wedding Ideas

I love the idea and think tea length is appropriate. You can also check out the Vintage Wedding board. Instead of logging into the area you are located, there are a few options underneath. One is Theme Weddings and an option is Vintage. I've noticed some great websites and links to thinks from other brides. I am going with…

Absolutely Fallin. And yes thank you Fitty for putting that so well. I'm actually doing my thesis on the history of post partum depression and institutionalization. My favourite part of the paper is about asylum as respite. Women actually checked themselves in to get sleep and to escape. 13 kids at home, no birth control…
Re: How do I talk to him about proposing?

Reply by calliopeia2013 · May 2012 · Home› Wedding Discussion Boards› Just Engaged and Proposals

Why don't you propose to him? I'm not just kidding around, I mean that seriously. What's stopping you? Also, I really, really don't think it's pressuring to check in with a guy you're in a LTR with to see if you're on the same page as far as marriage/kids/etc timelines. And I strongly disagree with PP's first sentence (and…

My Fi's aunt is manager of our local literacy association. They get books donated all the time. She has been collecting old books for me for two years. last year I got an old copy of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, I also got a a 1950's edition of Uncle Tom's Cabin. They are so amazing. This year I got a book about…

Jester- yeah, we really like the KOP. We started looking in Plymouth Meeting, Norristown, Conshy, Bridgeport first, but you really can't beat the location and the taxes in KOP. Plus the school district is waaaaaaay better then Norristown. It's a sin because architecturally and location-wise, Norristown is perfect. It has…
Re: Pay your own way rehersal dinner - Brooklyn NY

knottiee2fa1076b0e89b5b - No no no. This isn't about the 1950s. It's about being a normal, polite human being. If you send invitations for a welcome dinner, you host it. Period. If you can't afford to host a welcome dinner but you still want to see people, you do something more casual, like verbal invitations saying "we'll…

Re: POLL: Day-of Wedding Coordinator

Reply by destiny1108 · September 2009 · Home› Local Wedding Boards› Hawaii

We ended up going with full service planning with Hawaii Weddings and Events which of course included the day of coordinator too. It was worth every penny and more! There were so many things that I hadn't thought of, and she offered creative ideas to incorporate special things we enjoyed. All of our guests were traveling…

Maybe I'm in the wrong business, and should go into advertising... in a 1950, cheesy sort of advertising firm... I'd fit in there. Kati, I like the concept of the ring, and had it for a while. It fvcked with my emotions, though. I got seriously depressive while I was on the ring. Something about the mix of hormones, or…
Re: Does this seem to work?

Reply by carouselandsold · October 2010 · Home› Wedding Theme Boards› Retro and Vintage Weddings

i agree with all the PPs, you need to balance out your look... everything you have so far works really well. your dress is gorgeous and i think a necklace would take away from the sash and dress details. i have a very simple 1950s dress and plain red sash (no details or beading) because i knew i wanted to wear Kundan…
