Happy week of Thanksgiving brideys! Hopefully all of you are taking advantage of some time off to focus on your families, stuffing your face with some delicious turkey and pumpkin pie, and of course thinking about everything you are thankful and grateful for in your lives. For instance, I bet...

I have to admit... As much as I preach about not being a bitch during your wedding planning, it's also important not to be a bitch during your marriage. And frankly, that was me this past weekend. I was a complete bitch to the only person who truly gets me,...

As a wedding planner, I often get asked by my brideys, "Bitchless Bride, where did YOU get married?" Like somehow, my wedding was the holy grail of weddings, and if they mimic my every move, decision and even my wedding dress, then their wedding will be a huge...

I never used to care about the groom's cake. To me, it was yet another superfluous way for couples to spend money on something that I deemed somewhat pointless. That is, until three days ago when I witnessed the cutest, silliest presentation of a groom's cake that I have ever...

Hmmm... how to say this nicely... I'm your wedding planner, not your personal assistant. There, I said it. Wow, I feel much better. Brideys, it's really important for you to be able to distinguish between the two. No, really it is. You hired me to plan your wedding, not to...

So, I've been doing a lot of soul searching lately. Actually, more like wedding planning soul searching. And maybe it's because I get these ridiculous emails and phone calls from my clients about the stupid crap "keeping them up at night", like... oh I don't know... "Will there be Grey...

After an amazing weekend filled with rehearsal dinners, beautiful weddings, "morning after" brunches, everything hurts; everything aches; everything cracks. I feel like an old lady hobbling around looking for my cane. But, the worst pain? My head. And my head hurts from too much thinking, and over thinking, and even...

"Simplicity is the glory of expression" said the great American poet, Walt Whitman and after a long, Labor Day weekend of weddings, rehearsal dinners and the "morning after" brunches, I couldn't agree more. I mean, I've been thinking about some of the fabulous toasts I felt lucky enough...

Quick! What do you think of when I say, "morning after"? I know what I think of, and it's something they probably don't want me write because it's dirty! Right? But seriously, I don't know WHAT the deal is lately. I feel like every time I turn around, somebody is...

So, I've written quite a bit about wedding etiquette, the dos, the don'ts, and the don't even think about its... But an important topic we haven't discussed is appropriate bridal party behavior, and how you as a couple can address what's helpful, hurtful and plain old hateful. Because...

So, I was having a few cocktails with my of my favorite brideys following a super long décor and design appointment, and after a few drinks, she told me that she and her fiancé had been fighting a lot lately. As you may know, a bride sharing personal information is...

There are always those people that you HAVE to invite. You know, the ones you'd prefer to leave off the list, but unfortunately, they are family, etc. and so sadly it's not an option. And oftentimes it's those same people who are the drunken jerks, total ragers and fight starters....

I don't know why, but for some reason you brideys have it in your crazy little heads that you have to do EVERYTHING all at once. Plan a wedding, buy a house, get pregnant, etc... I don't get it. Seriously. You crazy brides are just making it worse for yourselves....
