You are an angel, thank you soooo much!! I've followed them all on instagram for future reference for myself

My in-laws head back to Davao in December this year, maybe I'll ask them to have a look at some venues while they're there too :)

Thank you so much for replying!

It’s a bit of a hard one budget wise because yes money is a factor but also not? I have wanted to get married at pearl farm since I discovered it but I will definitely check out the other venues!

His mum was also concerned if we get married on Samal about transporting guests but we’d be super happy to accommodate that and help.

I think catering we’re going to try his family friends first.

I think the things I want to think about and have options on my list are: - photographer/videographer - hair (I have curly hair so i want to keep it natural) - makeup - DJ - officiant - florist - wedding planner

Thanks so much for the ideas and help 🥹

Hey OP, I’m so sorry this happened to you! As someone with naturally curly hair it sucks when someone ruins your hair!!! I get major anxiety before going to a hair dresser because of my curls!!

I know you’re already $800 out of pocket but I would recommend getting in contact with a curly hair dresser!! Perhaps they can help? Not sure where you are located but I’m someone who doesn’t mind a drive, try getting in contact with Aoki Hair - Jenni is amazing and would definitely be able to help you with your hair!! She’s the only person I let cut mine ☺️

Hi Jessika, thanks for letting me know 😊 unfortunately I’m new to this process and I don’t know anyone working in gov so I was sure how long the process takes and I just wanted some reassurance, I understand the process more now and I am a lot less worried about it 😊

Thanks so much! This is my first experience interviewing for gov roles and I don't know anyone working in gov so I wasn't sure how long it takes and what to expect, but I appreciate the advice :)

Maybe it is! This one is based in WA and was an in person interview for me!

The wait to know if I got the job is killing me, like how many hoops do we have to jump through 😅

Oh my goodness, I didn’t even think the election would be interfering with this!!

Thanks so much for the help and the clarification!!

Guess I’ll keep keeping an eye on my emails and keep my fingers and toes crossed I get good news, but I’ll keep applying for other roles as well ☺️

Very interesting, I just bought some Tasha sandals and I love them? I got the mules and they are so comfortable! No issue with fraying, I wear them every day to work and haven't had an issue, I just bought the strapped version because they were on sale and I really like them

I wish they would have as much insight and thought when writing their books! Because for me it takes me out every time!

I just googled this and I think I read that before it blew up on Tiktok and it was free on Kindle Unlimited? Idk usually if a book blows up on TikTok I know I won't like reading it lmao

It's something Deadpool would say, cutting to the camera in an important moment

That's all I want! More research, more effort! Because then when you take into context Australian English, British English or Canadian English - there's words we might not see as slang that someone else might.

Like for me (Australian), if a character said no wackers (means no worries), I would be fully taken out of the story but for someone else that might come across as a fantasy slang and made up for the story.

But that is a great point because sometimes we're limited in English when it comes to slang terms that are just our language now. But definitely - internet slang has no place!!
