    <span style="font-size: xx-small;">lol. I feel kind of dumb getting confused! don't judge me :) lol

    FI = fiance/fiancee

    FH = future husband

    DW = destination wedding

    RD = rehearsal dinner

    FMIL = future mother in law (and other in-law titles follow from this general idea)

    Don't forget STDs = Save the Dates, not what you may have previously thought. That one threw me off for a while.....

    Good website!

    @ PomPom: so true! when I first came on here I saw a poll about STDs and I was a little scared until I clicked on the post and read it!

    wow this has helped.. a lot I had assumed correctly... I thought FI- was future-inlaw.. so I was definatly confused! lol. and SO (significant other...oohhhhh) *light bulb goes on.

    The website was really helpful!

    STD's... ya! funny..!! - sending them in the mail? HA! I found this one out before now. :)
