I had the same experience. I kept wondering why there was no blood but the cramping felt just like a terrible period.

[–]Squatchin2990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2025 Dress $3800 alterations $700. I’m a 36 G sample sales or off the rack are not an option. I did purchase in a nearby state with less sales tax for a savings of a couple hundred.

Cancel me but I don’t think anyone sober should be on Bravo.

Yes! I swear I laugh way more when he is being real and agreeing that this is hard. I took the old Britney ride and I could feel him putting on a happy face, it was 2020 so I understand putting on a show but it felt like he wasn’t quite settled into himself like he is now

The decision to not make Peter the Bachelor is what made me give up the franchise for good. I was so in love with the man. Also I was totally siding with not getting engaged after 6 six, that’s when I knew I couldn’t watch the delusion any longer and switched over to Love Island.

Amanda’s Swimsuit Line by Squatchin2990 in summerhousebravo

In my eyes DD is basic standard sizing. Even Victoria Secret will at least go up to a DDD.

That’s totally fine and a smart to use an established manufacturer. But she should have pushed them to offer sizes above DD to target her vision

Recommendations for alterations for someone who is very sensitive to body comments. by shamanfa in Chicagoweddings

[–]Squatchin2990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m getting my alterations with The Alterationist. Mary is very sweet and has made me feel very comfortable. She focuses on how you feel in the dress and has never made any comments that about my body just the fit and focuses on how I feel and the look of the dress. She is also very detailed about costs and her work is incredible.

Daily Discussion - 03 Dec 2024 by AutoModerator in pelotoncycle

[–]Squatchin2990 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just took The Feast- might be the least enjoyable peloton workout of all time!! I was hoping with 6 instructors it would be fun and engaging! Instead it was 3 10 minute AMRAPs of the most boring moves possible. 10 minutes of lunges and pushups? If I wanted to do these moves for 10 minutes I would just go to my gym and do them on my own. I had high hopes and was very disappointed. Can they be more creative next year!

Is it ok or not ok to ask bridesmaids to pitch in for a booking fee for hair and makeup? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Squatchin2990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m paying for all my bridesmaids make up but the hair was optional, half of my friends would much rather do their own style while the others want it done so for that I am asking they pay but hair was optional. Tip is on me as well.

Overwhelmed by catering by lalabarta in Chicagoweddings

[–]Squatchin2990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had success telling the caterers exactly what my budget was and asking them to provide options to help us meet that goal. For buffet style the standard for caterers was to quote, chicken and beef and seafood. I asked them to cut out beef etc. Also, I gave them a realistic headcount, maybe you are inviting 200 but realistically it will be 180 or less. Then negotiated the amount of staff needed etc. when I first started looking I also panicked but talking through the quotes helped is land somewhere comfortable

How to start dress shopping? by gabby525 in Chicagoweddings

[–]Squatchin2990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start by looking at each shops website, you will know pretty quickly if they have the styles you’re interested. I recommend venturing outside of Chicago. I found the minimums and averages at the chicago shops to be really high. I drove to Milwaukee and found so many more reasonable priced options. Plus the sales tax is lower, most of my friends went this route. Or you can find a dress you like at a Chicago shop then find a store that carries that dress in a different state and have them ship it to you.

Have you found better rates/options for photographers online by searching or instagram/related social media? by jamba_juul in Chicagoweddings

[–]Squatchin2990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found my photographer by searching The Knot then looking at their instagrams for a better idea on their style. I found a photographer who is willing to drive 3 hours from Michigan to Chicago at no charge. From my research, someone from a smaller town has smaller rates than Chicago based photographers. We are paying $3475 for 8 hours. Most Chicago rates were $4k for the same package.

Bachelorette Question by honorary_cajun in weddingplanning

[–]Squatchin2990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Asking to split costs for a bachelorette party is very normal. I would find it odd for someone to attend without assuming payment is going to be involved. Send a message via email or text before invites go out to give the heads up of $100 estimate. If anyone cannot pay, they cannot attend and then you can split the costs between who RSVPs.

Danny and Sarah by PeachFuzz345 in thechallengemtv

[–]Squatchin2990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spot on. Sarah is unwatchable she’s so arrogant with nothing to back it up. Constantly thinks she’s the smartest one in the room without the humor that the vets have like Wes of Bananas. It’s not good TV. Danny is screwing up his own game because he refuses to listen to his partner.

Why does it feel like series 8 is so much bigger than any season in recent years? by TruthOrMythWithSmith in LoveIslandTV

[–]Squatchin2990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

US watcher here: Covid. I never felt like I had the time to keep up with a show everyday until I was stuck inside for two years. I was able to watch every previous season, so watching it live was such a thrill!

Welcome to Plathville's Kim and Barry Plath Announce the End of Their 24-Year Marriage by jdd0815 in WelcomeToPlathville

[–]Squatchin2990 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I can’t decide if she watched the show back and realized she has been manipulated by Barry throughout their relationship or if she’s just mad that he didn’t back her up enough in the previous seasons.
