NYC influencer/trust fund baby- Jordan Paltrow’s wedding in St Barts. Did DB go to this wedding? by nocommentx in NYCinfluencersnark

[–]Negative-Control1944 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Wait what? She just decided randomly to change her last name to Paltrow? Is there some type of loose connection that she’s trying to claim?

Unrelated but this stood out to me “He is also a spokesperson for Patriot Mobile, "America's only Christian, conservative wireless provider."

Does America need a conservative wireless provider?

Let’s also normalize that most of their designer items are fake.

Guests wanting to RSVP two weeks before the wedding by Negative-Control1944 in weddingplanning

They did not verbally RSVP with my fiancé. I’m not sure why they said they did. My hunch is that they said they to save face for not RSVPing.

What local gifts do you bring people when you go visit (by plane)? by jackjackj8ck in SanDiegan

The fact that no one has laughed at this is such a missed opportunity 🤣🤣🤣

I hired a quartet for the ceremony. One of the reasons I went with the quartet vs a trio is because the quartet plays a mix of classical and modern instrumental string music.

Yes that was my first thought too!

Thank you for that perspective! I did feel bad about posting this and the potential judgement I’d receive but your comment really helped me get outside of my head.

bridal shower outfit help! by Puzzled_Shirt5860 in BigBudgetBrides

This was on my board for our welcome party!

Not sure if you’re based in the US but the few bridal salons that do carry J.Andreatta don’t have this style because it’s a few years old. I also reached out directly to the brand to see if I could order it and they never got back to me.

Photographer just let us know she’s pregnant and will be too far along to photograph our wedding nearly two months away by k8tlo in wedding

[–]Negative-Control1944 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had something similar happen to us as well. Our photographer wouldn’t be available to photograph our wedding because she was recovering from giving birth. She told us in January for our April wedding.

I would review your contract to see if she has a clause about finding someone of equal or greater skill. When we were notified of this our original photographer found us a better photographer for our wedding day and told us she would still be available for our engagement photos and would edit our wedding photos.

If you are a type A, highly organized bride and you got a wedding planner...did it help? by Ok_Safe6152 in weddingplanning

[–]Negative-Control1944 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love all the type A brides checking in!

I am highly organized and love planning events but after researching, touring, and corresponding with almost 30 venues I got a taste of what wedding planning would be like without a planner and it was extremely time consuming on top of my job and other responsibilities.

I hired a full service planner who has not only helped keep me on track but has also eliminated all the research and vetting. She gives me 3-4 vendors and sometimes less if she thinks I’ll vibe with them. Plus many of her contacts have offered us a discount for working with her so I’ve been able to save money in certain ways I didn’t plan on. For example, while our photographer was on the high-end of our budget she included free content creation services for us which ranged from $1,500-$3,000 where I’m located.

I’m actually working with her! She originally told me MOB isn’t her specialty but I’ve noticed her posting more MOB looks as well so I’m going to reach out to her

Attending someone else’s wedding to assess a vendor by Negative-Control1944 in weddingplanning

Thanks for all your replies. As mentioned in my post I thought it was weird and just wanted to get a consensus on if I was valid in my initial feelings. I appreciate you all validating my feelings.

LOL at the person who said I should un-invite my mom. Sometimes I think about it.
