That dress is CUTE! I asked my fiance what kind of dress he thought I might pick and he suggested one at that length. I initially was like ‘omg no’ but yours is so adorable.

By Australia, are you by any chance referring to Grace Loves Lace? Because I have fallen in LOVE with Grace Loves Lace dresses but I think I’d be off my rocker to buy something I’d never tried on.

How come Jezebel’s into shaming women for what they’ve bought or want recently?

YUM

This is what we are doing! The “BEST” photographers in the city where we’re getting married start at 6000 (and the prices I could find are from 2012 so it’s probably gone up). We’ve chosen a family friend with a vastly more reasonable price range, and are spending our money elsewhere.

oh my GOD

I would have loved to do this! We get our cake with our wedding package though but if we hadn’t - cheesecake 1000%

I hate how in every screen grab of them, she’s looking at him like he’s some kind of divine oracle and she’s rapt in his infinite wisdom. They disgust me.

This mom-blogger that I sometimes read lost her daughter at 17 months and wrote an amazing blog post about what to say to people who’ve lost a child. It was eye-opening to me. Up there with “God has a plan” is “she’s in a better place now.” I know people just don’t know what to say, but it still hurts. Hopefully some…

I’m sorry for your loss. Hugs to you and your kitty.

“In the brutal moments when I am overtaken by the void, when the months and years stretch out in front of me endless and empty, only their faces pull me out of the isolation and fear.”

Why not?

Good for you :) my mom is getting married in October. She was married once before (to my ex-stepdad) and she always tells me that the night before the wedding she knew with an astounding clarity that it was a mistake, but there was nothing she could do. I hope she has the same tears as you did come October!

I can’t stop laughing at your sister’s comment! I have a feeling I will be the same. We had a civil ceremony for immigration reasons with three people in attendance and I teared up/nervous laughed the whole way through. I can’t even begin to imagine that multiplied by 150 guests at our actual wedding in a few months :/

and now a whole bunch of jezebel readers are crying at your photos too!

I am the same! I went to my fiance’s friend’s wedding also and they did like a family processional. The bride’s aunt and cousin walked her grandpa up the aisle and it was just fucking beautiful. I wept.

God this picture is beautiful!

OMG this will be me too

This article is super eye-opening. I don’t think I’ve been to a wedding where there wasn’t a bouquet toss. I hadn’t really thought about yet whether I’ll do one or not, but after reading this I feel like it’s a definite no.

Interested to know the other least favorites!
