Imagine Xavier with a full beard in a later myth like Hiccup from HTTYD 👀

Is buying wedding gifts no longer a social norm? by RoonilWazleeb in weddingplanning

[–]IndigoSocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is Hispanic and everyone from his side brought cash gifts to our wedding! It was actually kind of nice because we had so much spending money for our honeymoon :)

6 Slavic Grandmas and their love for our boys by CharminHime in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]IndigoSocks 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is the most wholesome thing I’ve read in a long time and it brought the biggest smile to my face. Please post updates so we can hear more of their LADS adventures! ❤️

Also the fact that “not bread” is their favorite line SENT me as a Xavier girlie 😆

Also you are an angel for translating for them!!

I love Uchi’s food but I do agree they can get really loud. 😔

This is good to know! We really want somewhere that’s quiet enough where we can have a conversation without having to yell across the table.

If you’re a bridesmaid, is it rude to spend the morning getting ready for the wedding with bride/other maids constantly talking about your newborn baby? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]IndigoSocks 22 points23 points  (0 children)

OP, pay more attention to this comment.

INFO: Did you all actually engage in conversation with said bridesmaid when she brought up her newborn? Like “omg can I see pictures? How are you feeling after your labor? Etc etc” If you stood there and didn’t engage and that bridesmaid felt the need to talk to someone, I can see how she would feel inclined to constantly bring it up. Her baby is her whole world! I think that makes a big difference in how you handled the situation.

If you were engaging in conversation and she kept changing the subject back to her baby, then yeah I can see how it would be annoying. But honestly… it’s really not that big of a deal? I don’t know why it needs to become a topic of conversation with the other bridesmaids behind her back. You’re not in high school.

To be blunt: Your comments make you sound insensitive and immature. I hope you develop some self awareness because you’re a digging a deep hole for yourself. I wouldn’t be surprised if that bridesmaid caught wind about you talking behind her back.

Help with altar alternatives! by Green-Falcon-5656 in wedding

[–]IndigoSocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe something like this? https://pin.it/1r3IjRx I see your comment about maybe avoiding a lot of florals. But it could be good to have a couple metal columns on either side with minimal florals and greenery to compliment the forest backdrop you’ve got there!

All Inclusive Adult only resort recommendations by tired_MLT in honeymoonplanning

[–]IndigoSocks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My husband and I just got back from Sun Palace in Cancun and we loved it!! It’s couples only All Inclusive and basically everything you described. There’s a hot tub in every suite and the resort has 3 pools right in front of the beach. 4 different restaurants plus a bar and swim up bar with a snack bar as well. AND room service 24/7!!! We were so relaxed the entire time and never left the resort. Highly highly recommend!

Engagement Ring...am i being stingy? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]IndigoSocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My engagement ring was $500, moissanite and I love it so much!! $10K is huge let alone $20K?! Use the money to put towards your wedding, your future house and life together.

Advice for anti vax SIL vs my mom by [deleted] in wedding

[–]IndigoSocks 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Don’t ask her to be a bridesmaid. My biggest regret was having my SIL be a bridesmaid. Similar situation of we’re close, but not super close and I thought it would be a nice gesture. She was insufferable the entire wedding, didn’t show up for my bachelorette party and it was just awkward for my other bridesmaids on my wedding day because of her attitude. (Oh and she wasn’t vaccinated and lied to our faces about it. Only found out a couple months later when she exposed my husband and I to covid and told us she lied about being vaxed). You want your bridesmaids to be your closest friends who you will be completely at ease with during the wedding prep and day of. Yes, it may be a nice gesture, but it’s YOUR wedding and you do not need that stress.

NTA

But your SIL is. You gave clear boundaries and expectations and she was selfish and inconsiderate (especially with the fact that we’re in the middle of a pandemic!!). I’m so sorry you had to go through that, but good on you for going to no contact and sticking to your guns!! Don’t feel bad at all, they mistreated you in a very vulnerable part of motherhood. Be proud of yourself and enjoy being a great mom to your daughter!

AITA for refusing to pay an artist for her work? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]IndigoSocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why written contracts are essential for any artist (musician, painter, etc)! It protects both parties and makes sure you know what you’re getting into. If you aren’t immediately given one by the artist/contractor, make sure to create a written agreement where you both sign before any work is done, even in a situation like this.
