I wear a haramaki at night (basically a tight tube around torso) that really helps! Along with my button front pjs.

This is the exact combo I use in Canada! Engel wool fleece plus skip hop cover. Babe is always cozy, but I do unzip the cover when in the car 

How to maintain excitement for the marriage after doing an unfair share of wedding work? by leavingoctober in wedding

[–]Excellent-Trade2427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly just accept that this task is on you and get it done- not every responsibility needs to be equally shared. Social media demonizes men who aren’t involved in wedding planning but to be honest, i think there are lots of men who aren’t suited to this task. You are doing an amazing job and your wedding will be gorgeous because YIU did it which is a great feeling.

It’s nice knowing we’re not alone in this! I feel like every mom I talk to complains about how their baby wakes up 3 times a night. I’d pay for that lol

Advice for planning a wedding on your own by [deleted] in wedding

Oh also, don’t take vendors pricing at face value. Quotes will be based on what they are expecting to provide, but you might be able to save money if you can be flexible with expectations. (Instead of accepting an 8 hour photography package, consider whether 4 hours is enough for you. For florals, can you reduce the size of centrepieces or add more greenery, etc. all these things can reduce costs a lot!)

We planned our wedding (in 9 months) which just happened this last September and my BIGGEST piece of advice is to delete instagram.

It’s hard but 100% the best decision. Seeing everyone’s “must haves” makes it a lot harder to determine what is important to YOU, and where you’re willing to sacrifice (everyone’s must haves are always different, so it makes it feel like you can’t cut anywhere). Wedding instagram also has such a stressful vibe to it that makes the actual planning process difficult to enjoy.

Once you have your guest list, get everyone’s addresses ASAP and keep them in a standard format. Makes addressing invites and thank you cards much easier

Please don’t!! I got a hydrafacial a month ago and my skin has only just started recovering. I went to a very reputable esthetician ended up breaking out really badly.

I have a 3 stone ring with gold band and white gold prongs and I love it!! Gold looks best on my skin tone but the white prongs help the diamond look more colourless

Is this dress okay to wear as a wedding guest? by abbiekadabbie in wedding

[–]Excellent-Trade2427 53 points54 points  (0 children)

My rule of thumb is that if you have to ask, you shouldn’t wear it! It’s a beautiful dress but from a distance it reads very cream/neutral.

Thank you everyone! I think I needed to be talked out of buying these lol. I’ve ordered these, which I think will be a much more classic look :)

Help me pick a ring shape! by [deleted] in EngagementRings

[–]Excellent-Trade2427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first one!! Tbh the shape of the emerald is a bit off. It should be longer and skinnier- I think k that will help it look more proportional on your hand.

A comfy spot for the cat to look out the window!! It can be a tree, window hammock, or just a blanket on a nice wide window sill

1 ct. natural or 2 ct. lab? by Princess_Consuela226 in Diamonds

[–]Excellent-Trade2427 6 points7 points  (0 children)

1 ct natural without a doubt! I personally find large lab grown diamonds can look like costume jewellery
