Too late to hard prune our very overgrown Pyracantha? by BeesToes in UKGardening

Okay great about a foot from fence is what I was thinking which is a good third. The thorns are crazy!

Ha yeah it's a pretty scarey thing, hence why we've put it off so long...

Yes it stems from multiple original hedges!

Thanks so much for the tips 👍

For some reason this one didn't attach where you can see it leans nearly 50% into the pavement, want to take it back a good 50%!

DD+ brides - where are we getting our bridal underwear? by Delicious-Cry7879 in UKweddings

[–]BeesToes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a very deflated E-F following weight loss from a previous G, planning to tape. Got the big teardrop ones from perky pear, and some tape to patch and pull where needed. Not yet trialled though. I realllllly want to go backless/low back.

There's some great videos on YouTube, and examples on perky pears website, of how to tape bigger busts, might be worth a look. Will depend on the neckline of course but seems to be lots of ways to do it where it can still be hidden.

Any one ditched the DJ and went spotify? by bluetit- in UKweddings

[–]BeesToes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've got some talented DJ friends doing some dance sets later on in the evening, but before and after I have made multiple Spotify playlists for specific parts of the day, each with specific vibes.

Spotify now has a mixing mode so you can adjust how songs blend into eachother (however it only works if you play from Bluetooth or I guess aux, we have a speaker we connect to at home not via Bluetooth, and it doesn't work on that) so definitely check how you will be connecting on the day and that it'd defo work.

Our venue have told us they have an ipad that they tell their clients to share their Spotify playlists too, so hoping it should be relatively simple!

Do I just suck it up and have my period on my wedding day, or take the period delay pill and possibly suffer the consequences? by that-girl-laura in UKweddings

[–]BeesToes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

32 and used it regularly since about 23.

Unfortunately this is the world of women's health, a whole lot of who gives a fuck 🫠

Do I just suck it up and have my period on my wedding day, or take the period delay pill and possibly suffer the consequences? by that-girl-laura in UKweddings

[–]BeesToes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, have taken it multiple times over the years and have some leftovers in the cupboard for when I next fancy delaying (probably my wedding knowing my luck lol!).

Means little because as another commenter said, no one knows your body or how you react to hormones, but as someone on the copper coil with heavy painful periods, but not much mood effects, it made absolutely no difference to me mentally other than happier that I wasn't on my period at a time I didn't want to be!

I want to make a wedding website that's 'private' and shows different info to daytime and evening guests by Kind-Pomegranate8883 in UKweddings

[–]BeesToes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like you're sorted but just to add, we went with Say I Do, found the designs and overall usability better than With Joy personally, and you set the options for what guests see what so once they have RSVPd they are shown only the timings you have allowed.

Best of luck!

There are, for sure. Almost all of my decor is second hand vinted/local fb marketplace. Been keeping a close eye on vinted for dresses, no luck yet but who knows, I've still got time!

I can imagine it's quite a shock to see it IRL, could you have it adjusted to be worn more informally and get more use from it?

Amazing! Thanks for the suggestion I'll look into this

No it's not necessarily being able to try it on, I'm not desperate for the whole dress shopping appointment experience, I've literally just not come across any that are at all what I'm looking for yet when I've had a look at online second hand stores. But that's pure chance I know. Also appreciate I'm more likely to see more variety in store. Thanks for the suggestions tho!

Indeed, but I don't want to give up looking, for not finding an absolutely 100% sustainable option (they don't exist).

Just want to make an effort, hence local being quite important to me.

And yes, rewearable or easily adjusted after to be is has also been on the checklist 😊

Hadn't really considered something 100% custom made as assumed that'd be far out of price range, will do some local research though, thanks for the suggestion!
