Great Groomsmen Gifts for Under $30

I got today’s post topic as a request from someone who follows me on Twitter (you are too, right? Because y’all – I’m funny. I will be your everything.). Anyhoo, I was asked to come up with a bunch of potential gifts for the groomsmen (’cause the groom was kinda slackin’ in that department and time was of the essence). So I decided to channel my dudeness, put one some of The Boy’s undies, and came up with this mini round-up (all for under $30):

Tips and Advice for Delegating Your Wedding’s DIY Projects

The DIY wedding is a popular opinion for couples on a budget. After all, the concept that it’s cheaper to source materials yourself and do the labor often does save you money.

So you may need to consider delegating some of the projects to family or friends. But how? Here’s so tips and advice for delegating your wedding’s DIY projects from some great wedding bloggers and my own experience.

Wedding Photography Regrets By Ariella Monti

When someone dies, pictures suddenly become extremely important. Photos, video, audio, become tangible memories of the person lost. I realized quickly that I had very few photos of Sean from our wedding. I didn’t think too much about this on April 17. It didn’t matter, until it mattered.

Wedding Wednesday: Focusing on The Groom and Groomsmen

Ah, the mens. The gender that, as whole, is just adorable (In a “Aw, I wanna you on the head when you do stupid stuff” way.). So, why are they always the second-class citizens at a wedding?

Reader Question: Help Planning a Charming Southern Wedding in Savannah Part 2

I love, love, LOVE it when a member of Tulle Nation writes to me and asks for help planning their wedding.

A Wedding Day Emergency Kit Checklist (for the Men)

It’s important to be prepared and your wedding day is no different. I think it’s a good idea for every wedding to plan to have a Wedding Day Emergency Kit on hand… just in case (If you hire a wedding planner – they should bring one with them.). This kit is totally something you can compile yourself with items from around your house. Every wedding is different, so you’ll want to add or subtract items but this is a good rundown of what you’d want to have around in case of a wedding day emergency.
