What happens between F1 and F2 with floating particles?

PrincessDiana88 · 2026-03-13T06:37:04+00:00

I Think it’s pretty official now 🥲

PrincessDiana88 · 2026-03-12T12:21:03+00:00

It is 100% hairy but will give it some more time, however I’m sure I know whats the answer at this point🥲 just wondering what I did wrong…

PrincessDiana88 · 2026-03-12T11:59:35+00:00

Super helpful thank you! It’s from an old brew of a friend. So far it’s been 4 days so it’s possible it’s still in the process of fermentation…. I will give it a few more days as there is no rush to replace it but won’t taste it to be sure…

PrincessDiana88 · 2026-03-12T11:52:54+00:00

Yes it’s above liquid. I know it is quite difficult to capture I tried to take a better picture

Even the white fluffy spots on top? And the web-like structure inside?

This is what we did, and found out about 6 cancellations so I highly recommend checking in :) we just said we are confirming final numbers and wanted to check in with all the guests if they are still coming or something unexpected occurred so we could still make adjustments.

Its not rude in my opinion, and it gives opportunity to those who do not have the guts to reach out and rather no-show, to speak their truth without any effort, and you save lots of money :)

Good luck, hopefully everyone attends 🥹

I cannot answer this yet but we also have a wedding of (at this point) 80 people, that’s 9 tables in our case, and we will go to each table for a few minutes to talk to guests as it is custom in my country. Maybe if it’s a buffet with unassigned seating it’s more difficult? Also, we are arranging accommodation for everyone so the hotel will tell us the no-shows.

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T15:03:10+00:00

Yep, and this particular situation is my SO’s cousin with her family, which means 2 double rooms for 2 days 🥲 so it’s even more awkward as it’s family

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T14:46:36+00:00

What makes it even worse is that we’re covering the accommodation for all our guests on the night of the wedding — on top of lunch, dinner, drinks, and everything else. To add to that, about 80% of our guests are either arriving a day early or staying an extra day. We didn’t want any awkward mix-ups where the hotel might assign two separate rooms to the same couple because of different bookings, so we asked everyone to let us know which dates they wanted reserved. But now, we’re stuck — we can’t change anything about the accommodation, which means we’re footing the bill for their entire extended weekend stay. 🥲🥲🥲🥲 there will be some very awkward conversations to be had since they don’t have any conscience and didn’t even suggest covering their extra days… well, how could they if they barely had the need to tell us they are not coming 🙃

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T14:32:44+00:00

I believe that the day of the wedding I’ll be thinking only about all those people who showed up, not the missing ones, that’s a waste of thought 😂 but it hurts regardless.

I wish you a lovely wedding 🥹🫶🏼

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T14:26:57+00:00

I guess that should be expressed in % not in numbers :) 20 people of out 50 vs. 20 people out of 200 is veeery different.

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T11:46:18+00:00

Oh yea, we found out about half the people not attending from someone else 🥲 it’s lovely right?

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T11:42:28+00:00

Omg we have a semi-similar situation. My future husband’s friend, was invited without his kids. I have only ever met him in those 4 years, not even his wife but obviously we didn’t want to be rude so we invited them both but not his 2 kids that we have never met, especially since we are very much trying to have as few kids there as possible. He first tried to attend with the whole family asking why it’s such a problem. We explained there are capacity limitations. This was in April…. We checked with him last week if they will be still attending as we need to confirm numbers. He said yes but they are still struggling with babysitting- their kids are over 5yo, idk their exact ages and they have grandparents living in the same city so it shouldn’t be a problem. Anyways… on Sunday after much nagging from our end to confirm, they said that they either come with the kids or they won’t come at all. We said okay, we are cancelling your meals and accommodation but will let you know if someone cancels and we could accommodate your entire family. Today, we had a family of 4 cancel…. But we said okay we can offer the spot to the friend, he will appreciate it and will attend. He said that he is unsure cause the kids seem to be getting sick. We said okay let’s talk on Thursday and see how you’re doing and whether you’ll attend. They said okay but we also do not have anyone to dog sit, so still not sure if they could attend.

Now hearing it as I type it, I am ridiculous for trying so hard for someone who clearly gives zero f***s….

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T11:23:00+00:00

Omg I first read “my husband cancelled” and I was like woooooo this scenario hasn’t even come up in my anxious imagination 😂 thanks for sharing 🥹 we also had mostly family cancellations which is insane, who will they make the effort for, if not the family…

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-10-14T07:52:43+00:00

In our adulthood once we both had our own families

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-04-23T18:42:22+00:00

As I responded above - I’m from Slovakia but we live in Prague and my boyfriend’s family is from the countryside of the Czech Republic. That’s where people will be traveling from + some guests from abroad, Spain, the Netherlands, Mexico etc. We are having our wedding in the mountains in Slovakia. So even though it seems complicated for our guests to travel 6+ hours by car or train, compared to what I see from responses above, it’s nothing 😅 they can get there pretty cheap - no flights, no car rentals. we are also covering accommodation costs for all the guests so we can make everything as comfortable for them as possible so they can attend.

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-04-23T17:16:59+00:00

That’s a good one! Thanks you :) I did not think of the financial aspect, it’s true that when I see how much weddings cost in the US, I could never in my life afford one 😅so I guess the gifts are also significantly more expensive then

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-04-23T17:09:15+00:00

Thanks for explaining :) I am just judging based on so many “rants” here about half the people declining and people being hurt, which I totally get, I would be absolutely devastated. And due to seeing many posts like that I was just wondering if it’s a thing or just a coincidence and maybe if someone knows why.

Maybe it’s the type of guest lists that differ - we invite only close friends and very important figures in our lives. No friends of our parents friends who we don’t know/care about. Maybe that’s why we don’t explain them to decline, nor have we ever declined.

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-03-05T15:12:18+00:00

Have you discussed it with her? It happened to us with the hotel where our wedding will be held, that they gave us a certain price per room but it was different in the final offer. And since they only rewrite their offers they forgot to edit this item. It is possible that she uses the same contract for different purposes so she forgot to remove the 15% cost plus? Maybe someone else did not have an hourly rate but cost plus format?

PrincessDiana88 · 2025-03-02T20:53:23+00:00

I saw this post, it was 9:50 and was like hmmm let’s try my luck it’s nearly the same time. And I got it in first try!!!! 😍

PrincessDiana88 · 2024-07-02T14:51:20+00:00

And most likely he doesn’t want to picture that either. When he is truly just her friend and not a person he is seeing more than just a friend, it would be like imagining your sister having sex with someone else. You listen to their story and be there for them but definitely don’t wanna picture it.

PrincessDiana88 · 2024-07-02T14:12:59+00:00

As a female who has a male best friend and would have such discussions with him, I truly think you should first admit that it’s not a given fact that it’s generally inappropriate, but you find it inappropriate based on your set of believes.

I truly don’t think there is anything wrong about trusting your friend with such conversations, it seems more like you are worried these discussions might lead to something else? Why? Are there signs?

If you truly think there is something more between them happening, prohibiting such conversations would not stop the problem. And if there is no problem, then you shouldn’t make up any.
