A Washingtonian Wedding: Keeping It Together

By Emily Halonen

A bride-to-be’s advice on staying organized.

One afternoon as I pulled out of my Mary Poppins bag the ungainly three-inch wedding binder, one of Drew’s roommates asked whether all brides had one. From what he had seen, all to-be brides wielded large three-ring binders with colorful tabs separating wedding-planning categories: dress, cake, photographer, reception . . . .

Maybe this should have been my first post: tips on how to keep it all together. Well, better late than never.

Our Invite Must Have Gotten Lost in the Mail

By Marissa Conrad

Dear Jenna,

We’ve been anxiously checking our mail since August 16, but it looks like we definitely, absolutely, undoubtedly will not be getting an invite to your wedding to Henry Hager this Saturday at your parents’ ranch in Crawford, Texas. We know that Lauren’s boyfriend isn’t even invited, so we’re not hurt (okay, we’re a little bit hurt). Rather than cry over spilled Champagne, we’ve devoted our day to soaking up every last scrap of news and speculation about the big event. But Jenna? If we had come, we would have added our names to the biggest present there.

With love,
Bridal Party
