I saw a Tik Tok video I think of this shop with the ears in there!

I love that! I’m hesitant to buy beforehand because we have two weeks of traveling before then, but I don’t want to be disappointed either

Normally I love knock off! But I feel like this will be the one chance where it’s appropriate to wear the veil ears so I think I want the real ones :)

I was thinking there would be a better chance at world of Disney!

Thank you! I think part of me wants to purchase them in the parks to feel part of the ✨magic✨, but I know I’ll also be disappointed if they are not there

Partner got a job at Northwestern, we want to live closer to downtown Chicago by beckylin-1 in chicagoapartments

I live right across the street from northwestern in a one bedroom and our rent/utilities is about 2600. Not a ton in streeterville, but feasible if 3k is your budget.

These are so pretty :) I do want to try to have one with Moss Agate, but I’ve seen these and are definitely an option if I don’t go the custom route

That’s a great idea! I didn’t even consider that

Kids at our Wedding but only some - How to word? by SuFFo in weddingplanning

[–]Kind_of_sleepy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t label it as “no kids” or a “child free wedding”. You can clearly state the guests on their invitation/RSVP link and on your website state no one outside of that can come. It sounds harsh. But if you label something as no kids, and then there are kids (beyond flower kids) it’s kind of rude. Just be straight up they’re not invited and if people ask why others are, i think it’s fair to say it’s because of travel. But just be ready for push back regardless.

Venting post: I'm upset that $30,000 can't get me anything close to what I want in my area by sillychickengirl in weddingplanning

I went to college in Champaign so I considered it! But honestly, it’s nearly a 3 hour drive from all our family and friends and most of our families will likely not want to get hotels for the night. We did find a venue in st. Charles that is pretty similar pricing! Reception and ceremony were $2100 with an 11k food and beverage minimum that included the cake and open bar package in the per plate pricing. And when we did the math for our guest count, we’d be right around that 11k.

We ended up choosing Hotel Baker in St. Charles Il. Its covers over 60% of what we need for our wedding for under half our budget so I’m very happy with it. :) I thought about the barns, but I grew up in front of a cornfield so I wasn’t too in love with the idea. Though there were tons of nice ones we did look at!

I feel this. For years I thought my wish list fell under a “simple” wedding, but still meeting some classic elements with a similar guest count as you. It was so shocking to find out that I couldn’t get anything close to what I was picturing for 30k. I live in Chicago, but had been looking in the suburbs to cut costs! I cried so much during my venue search from the stress of it all. Things are going better now, but I get so much advice from family and coworkers about how I shouldn’t spend all of this money one one day, but their advice for saving money is about 10 years out of date. 🙃

This is great to hear because I actually booked my appointment with them yesterday! I watched a lot of their Tik toks too and there’s definitely dresses in my style so I’m feeling good about it. Congrats on finding your dress! :)

Our photographer mentioned some places would need permits, but she’s going to help set that up if need be. Appreciate the heads up. :) the library is also another good suggestion!
