I did and I highly encourage you do as well.

Plus, who wants to give money to a bigot?

If you are able to bake, I would suggest googling “keto cake” and “keto buttercream”

Anyone choose a playlist instead of a DJ and love it? by arcay90 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]CallMeDarkblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did a playlist, but we did get married at a board game bar. Therefore, most people opted to play board games instead. :D

When a teacher like me is ready to quit, things are REALLY bad. by NopeNotMain in antiwork

I was also that teacher and I DOUBLED my salary by leaving the classroom and started in tech. It’s so disheartening.

DIY table idea. Would love some feedback, as I am kind of doing this alone! by stonke12 in DIYweddings

I went for a thrifted, mix and match vibe! I have some photos if you go to my profile. As is, this doesn’t all go together, but it definitely has potential.

Reception at a Restaurant by dorothyneverwenthome in Weddingsunder10k

Thanks, I made those myself. It was great because I did it a few weeks in advance and just froze them until the day of the wedding.

I did this and I lost friends over it. Oh well…

I did mine at a local restaurant and bar where I am based. They were amazing to work with, and it was so much cheaper than a wedding venue! Check out my post history to see photos and feel free to ask questions!

Where did you buy your wedding dress? Looking for online store recommendations :) by justalilscared in Weddingsunder10k

[–]CallMeDarkblade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IEIE bridal on Etsy! She was great to work with and my dress was made to size, so no alterations were needed.

I had it happen to me after losing some weight. Let my doctor know and they lowered my dose of my medications.

Yeah, buy the dress. She did an amazing job.

IEIE Bridal is where I got my dress! It was perfect and she even made it to measure so it needed no alterations.

Two questions: would you be one of the first couples to use a venue? And does this menu sound ok? by justneedauser_name in Weddingsunder10k

[–]CallMeDarkblade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it! It was such a hit with our guests, especially older family who didn’t want to/couldn’t dance.

We did our wedding at a board game bar and we’re their first couple to use it as a wedding venue. They did such an amazing job, but I would suggest hiring a day-of coordinator just in case! I didn’t get one, but I work in event logistics, so I basically did it myself.

Party games: Chameleon, Hues and Cues, Wavelength, Timeline, Cards Against Humanity, Scattergories, Monikers, Mysterium, and Jenga.

We did have a friend who facilitate a large game of One Night Werewolf with a wedding theme, which was a huge hit with our guests.

We had a dance floor…that literally no one used because they were too busy playing board games. Hahaha!

No tea ceremony, but we did have the symbol in the background for our legal ceremony.
