The Most Expensive Celebrity Weddings Ever
Often, star studded celebrity weddings are as exclusive as red carpet events. Celebrity weddings are known to be some of the most extravagant and exclusive parties around, with over the top decor, venues, dresses, and guest lists. Because celebrities have the money to spend, they want their big day to be as special as possible and they don’t worry about the price tag when putting together the ultimate ceremony. Usually, celebrities are marrying one another and their guest lists are filled with celebrity friends, so of course, they are wanting to impress everyone in attendance. Celebrity weddings from Los Angeles to New York City and beyond have spared no expense with the most expensive celebrity weddings being upwards of $30 million dollars or more.

The Essentials for a Wedding Emergency Kit. Top Story - November 2018.

Well worry not, my fair brides (and moms), I’ve got you covered.

Things Your Wedding Planner Won't Tell You
Remember Bridezillas? It was a show that was all about brides who had out of control demands, threw fits, and occasionally would get left at the altar after being totally awful to all their loved ones. That show is a favorite of mine, but mostly because it's one of those "train wreck in slow motion" type deals.

Things that Helped Me, as a Lazy Bride to Be. Top Story - October 2018.
Like most little girls, I dreamed of my wedding day. I planned the little intricacies and pomp with flare while imagining I was a princess wearing white. I became more and more jaded by hate of dating, and my dreams of becoming a bride faded into a dream that I would have after eating a whole pizza while watching Game of Thrones. Yeah, I was that girl—the nerdy girl who ate whole pizzas on Sunday night. Fast forward to now, I have been with the love of my life, Matt, for 5 years this November, and even after losing my engagement ring in Italy (while I was on set working), the wedding is still on, and I have never been more overwhelmed. Not only do I suffer from bouts of depression, but I have really bad anxiety at times.
