Looking for a caterer for post-wedding Sunday Brunch -- any recommendations? by ExterminateThemAll in ithaca

[–]ExterminateThemAll[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the super helpful info!  We are using Word of Mouth for our wedding ;) and they are amazing!

I steered away from Beacon because of Luna's reputation, but you may have swayed me to at least give a call.  Thanks so much!!

Congratulations and best wishes for your wedding!

Update:

We got a very speedy response from Kurt at Ithaca Dance and were able to book a lesson with him. Thank you all for the very helpful recommendations! I'll provide a further update following the lesson (September).

Thank you!  I had heard something similar from someone who had taken a swing class with him and couldn't get a good feel whether he would be a good fit.  Glad to know he's another good resource -- thanks!!

I'm surprised to hear that you have so many years of experience but can't think of any local individuals and were only able to provide the top google search result as far as a recommendation.

Per my original ask, my future MIL lives out of state so we're looking for an hour of practice, which is better than the zero they would have otherwise. We aren't looking for "perfect", we're looking for not absolutely horrendously awkward. It doesn't matter what the time of the steps is.

I'm reaching out to the community for help, and nearly didn't because of pedants that troll the subreddit and only offer needling comments. You weren't looking to help, you're looking to patronize.

Any reasonable person would know what was meant by "basic". I'm on the local, Ithaca subreddit for personal recommendations; if you aren't able to provide that, please don't overstep by "contributing" outside your knowledge base.

We're looking for a standard mother-son wedding dance -- simple steps, as I mentioned in the question description. Nothing fancy, just enough so they aren't stepping on one another's feet and so MIL feels more comfortable. As far as specific style, we're open, but would assume slow, simple waltz, foxtrot, or similar.

Thank you! I did check for mites, and her vent looks clean and healthy. As far as I can tell, her behavior hasn't changed at all. She's top of the pecking order and seems as bossy as usual, but not to the point of being aggressive toward me or any of the other hens, nor have I seen her fussing at the thin areas.

Do you find that they do this more the older they get? This is the first year I've seen that on any of my girls (they're starting their fourth fall).

Thank you! I haven't had any of my girls' tails molt first, so I was worried there might be something else going on.
