@kindbytealikat Thanks! Noone could believe that I ordered in online without trying it on first. I wasn't going to go traditional bride originally. I even looked at ordering one of Inara's dresses on Etsy, but I saw that dress and could not help myself. MF was shocked when I knew about the show and was able to quote it. It may have been the moment he fell for me. That or when he saw I owned the special edition of Spaceballs
@meri-mac good idea. I was going to PM you but I don't think I'm the only one who's curious about wedding details. I think you made the right call on the dress, but any of Inara's dresses would've been amazing too.
TTC History:

@meri-mac I ordered my wedding dress online without trying it on first too! I tried on about 40 dresses over the course of a month and nothing felt right. I had "the moment" when my dress came in the mail and I tried it on for the first time. Totally worth the gamble. So excited for your upcoming wedding!!!
It is taking everything in me to not jump into the Feb19 BMB board and support not only our ladies, but ourselves. I am placing bets on their first thread being shut down here shortly.
Hi everyone! I'm new-ish to the Bump. Is there a group for those 35+ TTC? Am I allowed to start threads in this forum addressing those that are on the older side? (and I don't think I'm old, just 35 seems to be the age when things supposedly change) Still learning the SOP I've searched the groups, but missed it if it already exisits. Thanks!!
I was expecting that thread to be more dramatic than it was. I'm amused by that GBCB over nothing, but it seems that their group is better off without that chick!
Omg you guys. Military funerals get me every.single.time. My great uncle passed last week. He was an awesome, old fashioned guy (never in my life saw him dressed down. Always to the nines with tie and hat). We are all sad to see him go, but we also know he was ready. He told me a few years ago he just wanted to make 90 and then he'd be ready. He had just turned 91 a few weeks before passing. I didn't cry at all because I knew it was what he wanted and that he was now happy with my great aunt. I was doing fine until they had my family move to the front row to represent my great aunt (she was my grandfathers sister). But then Taps. And then they gave my cousins the shells from the live fire salute. I was a mess. Thank goodness I keep a makeup bag in my desk at work....

Omg you guys. Military funerals get me every.single.time. My great uncle passed last week. He was an awesome, old fashioned guy (never in my life saw him dressed down. Always to the nines with tie and hat). We are all sad to see him go, but we also know he was ready. He told me a few years ago he just wanted to make 90 and then he'd be ready. He had just turned 91 a few weeks before passing. I didn't cry at all because I knew it was what he wanted and that he was now happy with my great aunt. I was doing fine until they had my family move to the front row to represent my great aunt (she was my grandfathers sister). But then Taps. And then they gave my cousins the shells from the live fire salute. I was a mess. Thank goodness I keep a makeup bag in my desk at work....
