Wedding weight loss: fighting pressure to lose weight for your wedding
All of my anxieties about my mother scrutinizing my weight all through the engagement process (“No wedding dresses are going to look attractive on you if you don’t lose a good 40 pounds!”) makes me almost not want to get married at all. How do I deal with it? How do I tell her to back off without pissing her off or giving her a brush-off answer?
Janelle & Bobby’s romantic back-to-nature wedding
We’ve compiled a few of our favorite woodsy weddings into this forest theme week including this lovely offbeat lite wedding in Malibu. Tear-filled and giggly vows, some surprise live music, and a gorgeous outdoor ceremony — you’ll be won over.
Stephanie & Joyce’s Rat Pack meets modern soiree wedding
This pair traverses a limited guest list, interfaith considerations, and late-night loud music ordinances. But you’d never be able to tell that there were any hurdles by everyone’s faces. Though they ran into some rough patches with major wind and some staff turnover at their venue, their positive attitudes are models for peaceful planning!
Melissa & Robert’s “anchored in love” underwater adventure wedding
This couple likes BioShock 2. A lot. So their wedding had lots of music from the soundtrack, and –of course — had an underwater theme like the game’s underwater city. Totally gamer chic and gorgeous at the same time. Plus sharks. We like sharks.
