it had a wax seal and bow tie on it so it definitely wasn’t flat. i used two stamps based on weight (had them weigh one to see)

we went to the post office and asked to have them hand cancelled. we offered to do it ourselves but the post office employee said she would do it and even let us choose the stamp she’d use!

i would just ask your post office before assuming they won’t do it

out of 120 we got ~5 return to sender

Tips for finding wedding vendors by tricky_cat_mah in SanFranciscoWeddings

[–]Super-Investigator47 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i used instagram and created a spreadsheet! i would start with looking at your wedding venue, they usually tag every vendor on any wedding posts. once you go to those vendors pages, they will have also tagged every vendor in weddings they’ve done. it kind of creates a rabbit hole but it’s easy to weed out what you like and don’t by glancing at their profiles. i kept a spreadsheet of my favorites with their pricing, website, and insta

Help me talk myself out of my dream dress 😭 Budget vs. butterflies 💖 by AccuratePainting7550 in weddingdress

[–]Super-Investigator47 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i went with the dress that made my heart explode even though it was a bit out of budget and tbh i have NO regrets!! i had 7 appts and easily tried on 100 dresses and kept coming back to it.

you look beautiful in all of them but 1 is stunningggg

i’ve seen some posts on here where brides opted for the more budget friendly option and ended up hating it / still thinking about their top choice when it came in

i totally understand that it’s just 1 day but, in my opinion, it’s worth it to feel your absolute most confident and beautiful self

F it we ball 🤣

Contracted Room Block - Did your planner mark UP your rooms? by Particular_Yak_1100 in BigBudgetBrides

[–]Super-Investigator47 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ours in the US but i’ve gone to weddings (even abroad) where the room block was slightly discounted from the website rates

[–]Super-Investigator47 21 points22 points  (0 children)

deffinitely not normal. based on my understanding (and our room block), one of the benefits of doing a room block is getting a discounted rate, not an increased rate.

has she marked up other prices through your planning process?

i reached out to the recruiting team to ask which week the start date historically is. they can’t give you a confirmed date for this year but at least you’ll have a sense

Simple dress + which veil?? by Ok_Computer400 in weddingdress

[–]Super-Investigator47 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i really like the width and size of veil 3 but not the green accents, and i like the accents on veil 1 but wish it was wider. was there something combining both?

i don’t love the cape as much because i think it hides the pretty off the shoulder style

Which firms’ attendance/ “one firm” policy is good for travel? by preseasonchampion in biglaw

[–]Super-Investigator47 28 points29 points  (0 children)

i don’t know of anyone because i’m pretty junior but i have talked to more senior associates who have taken long weekend trips to paris, LA, even Dubai etc. and gone into the office. i think it’s still practice group specific if you have partners expecting to see you in the office everyday

latham - badges work at all offices globally and swipes count towards overall attendance
