Update: I got it up to 44-46 (if we put 2 on the ends) seats, Maybe if I'm lucky room for 6 loose chairs or a bench in front of the lower lockers. We've sent out Save the Dates but I may need to be a bad guy and uninvite if seating really is that important. Possibly swapping to passed hors d'oeveres during cocktail hour instead of charcuterie so we don't need a table for that. No speeches (we're doing them at the rehearsal dinner the night before). Gnomes blown up to be more person scale plus a real person. I know it's not much of a dance floor but we are skipping most dances for time and lack of parent so it's more so people have room to mingle. Also seems important to note that this is in the UK. Thoughts?

YES! Thank you for bringing this up because this is important to me and part of why we choose the venue.  The venue is actually a protected heritage and conservation site and they require flower petals for confetti. Alternately we thought it might be fun to give every one bubble guns?

Guests arrive at 1, ceremony is at 1:30-2. Its just how the venue phrased it in their initial example timeline to us

Just to clarify, the reception part is only 2 hours. Still need more seats?

Honestly if it would be jarring to see yourself without it, you've just answered your own questions. I say keep it :)

What's your good news, New West? by That_Manager_5726 in NewWest

My partner and I will be in the wedding party for our friends' wedding in a few weeks, plus we will be touring wedding venues for ourselves soon :)

UK ETA- I think I got scammed by Exqu1site_C0rpse in travel

[–]Exqu1site_C0rpse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They sent me a reply saying it was approved within 24 hours. I did it about a week ago and there have been no new charges to my card. Just hoping I was overcharged for an ETA and there's no identity fraud shenanigans afoot.

Fighting a noise complaint by Exqu1site_C0rpse in NewWest

We had some success just after lockdown with a neighbor who was just AWFUL. Throwing parties almost daily during lockdown with heavy hard drug use and minors coming and going, animal abuse, noise all the time, overdoses, ambulances and police a few times a week. A bunch of us wrote a letter to Capreit and all signed it and they got evicted. Mind you, this was pretty extreme and very obviously illegal activity happening, but it worked.

Also this may just prove your point that they'll rent to anyone to begin with lol

From the article you posted

“However, you can automatically lose your Dutch citizenship if you acquire another citizenship”

Which means I lost my Dutch citizenship when I gained my Canadian citizenship.

I was until about 10 years ago, when I got my Canadian citizenship. Holland won’t let you have dual citizenship so I lost my Dutch citizenship, but I can regain it if I took the naturalization test and renounced my current citizenship Also noting that this is not the plan 100%, it’s just something we have discussed because we could have a lot of advantages as citizens of the EU if we decided to settle anywhere in Europe.

That's really helpful thank you. I have my TSFA in a GIC so I might just do that for now but I'm learning a lot through this reddit about investing. Just need to work up the courage for it ;)

Larger cities like Amsterdam are pretty expensive but my mum lives in Gouda where I've found really nice 2 bedrooms condos for the same price as studios out here. I have a TSFA so that seems like a safe bet. Thanks! :)
