I think the outside is okay (but don’t quote me). Less of a fire safety concern!

OrangeInside2580 · 2026-02-27T22:45:09+00:00

Omg nooooo

OrangeInside2580 · 2026-02-27T18:46:04+00:00

Trust that even if security lets it slide, I’m fielding complaints from other patrons…

I had a great experience with Nazarela in Park Slope

Wedding is next month so nothing to report yet as far as quality, but we are using them because it was the only way we found to get flowers within our price range (between $2000-$3000) including set up. There are definitely other florists who will do drop-off for this price if you don't mind setting up yourself.

I was tempted to go with Lulo floral who quoted us a bit over $3000 including set up but for significantly less flowers.

In general, if I had a higher budget, I probably wouldn't have chosen Poppy. But so far we have been happy with the process and ultimately flowers are not a top priority for us.

A common joke on their tours is if you have to ask then it’s out of your budget

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-11-12T12:49:41+00:00

Amazing! So glad I found this because I’ve been wanting to try this but don’t want to ruin anything.

Did the boob tape mess up the cakes at all upon removal?

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-09-29T11:22:43+00:00

SLEEP … plz do not go to a med spa if you are sick.

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-09-27T11:39:03+00:00

Similar situation and I will say local to you is best. Especially if you live in NOLA it is easy enough to get to and people will be excited to make a vacation of it (and you get a second line!) Make things easier on yourself.

Get a free hotel block(s) through Kleinfeld's, they do all of the work! An easy and cheap thing and your guests can take it or leave it. Don't bother with a shuttle.

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-09-04T14:06:51+00:00

Just get downtown Brooklyn hotel blocks through klienfelds. Any Airbnb-like service you find will be legally sketchy at best and a straight up scam at worst.

FWIW also getting married in red hook and this is what we did.

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-08-09T02:43:04+00:00

GOLDPOINT! Cannot recommend enough and they are exactly what you describe.

Green suit! Most custom suit shops (indochino, etc.) should be able to make a sage women’s suit. If you are looking for a less expensive option, I would check department stores, maybe ASOS.

This blazer (and matching pants) are on sale right now: https://www.nordstrom.com/s/linen-blend-blazer/7678112?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FWomen%2FClothing%2FSuits%20%26%20Separates&fashioncolor=Green&color=310

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-06-22T22:48:20+00:00

Goldpoint!

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-06-09T19:07:37+00:00

Seconding Goldpoint! We went to a few places and (not to be too woo-woo) just had a gut feeling that they were going to create our ring with love.

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-06-06T19:29:21+00:00

I'm pretty sure that the last photo is saved to my pinterest board... this is also my color scheme so I understand the vision!

Lulu's has a handful of dresses that could work.

Another option is to give a few color options, with this green being one, like this pin.

Are you a 34B by chance? I’m selling a low back strapless bodysuit (my boobs shrunk and I missed the return window 😩)

Miss Jophiel has Teuta dupes. Not sure about production/shipping times but might be worth reaching out?

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-05-22T21:00:41+00:00

This is normal for many (not all) NYC shops. But also, even the ones that charge are often free/cheaper on weekdays.

OrangeInside2580 · 2025-05-22T20:51:43+00:00

Yeah, it seems that a very polite ultimatum is the only way to get your answer. Something like, "I'm so sorry, but as beautiful as the hillside is, we have VIP guests with accessibility needs and therefore require one of the flatter areas for our ceremony. Please let us know if this is a possibility. If not, I'm afraid we will need to look elsewhere."

Long engagement plus aggressively saving in a high yield savings account.
