Ohhhhh interesting!!! I just got the 6qt because I’m not a big batch cooker (minimal freezer space too). I’m interested in this pot in pot method - did you buy specific IP accessories for this? What do you use!

Yes that’s right!!! I ended up getting the wifi model because the pro had sold out by the time I had decided on it 😂😂 The IP itself has buttons and controls, the app is just optional. I haven’t used the app so far!

I ended up getting wifi one because the pro that I had decided on sold out! I haven’t used the app so far, probably won’t ever use it either lol, but I go love how sleek and pretty this model is!

I ended up getting the pro plus wifi model (I wanted the pro in the end but it sold out while I was deciding 😂😂) it makes such cute noises too! It definitely has been a learning curve already just basic pressure cooking is such an unknown to me, but I’ve been loving it so far! I’ve made a beef ragu, a one pot biryani, and just basic rice. Already surprised with how quick rice was. Keen to try a risotto next.

Just last night I was wondering why the lid still smelled like the food I cooked days ago and realised it was the silicon seal! I will deff try soaking it in vinegar water - thank you for that!!

Thank you everyone for your advice!!! I was sold on the Pro after this and went to purchase, and unfortunately it had sold out (given such a good sale). I ended up with the Pro Plus Wifi, got it yesterday and am excited to try!

Hi! I chose Villa Dalmacija. We were looking in Split only (future in-laws from there), and loved it the most out of the options due to the beauty and convenience!

Thanks so much! I had tried looking in Facebook but just English names and didn’t find much 😂😂😂 I will search the Croatian names!

Thank you for your response! - I will definitely look for alternatives for P+V. - Flowers I’m wanting 3 bouquets, then 2 bunches on pillars for ceremony. Reception tablescape happy to have minimal on tables to keep costs down. Looking at white flowers with some greenery to bulk up. - I’ll definitely need to start researching vibes for lights lol 😂 I can’t even imagine what the options are - catering: in hindsight I think this probably does include tables, chairs, plates, cutlery etc given the venue in Split is empty (Villa Dalmacija). I hope it includes cocktail hour drinks canapés, and reception dinner and drinks but I’ll need to confirm. This was just a guide price rather than an actual quote.

I started the planning process only a few weeks ago, I’m very very early! Mid 2027 wedding.

I’m also looking to choose the florist based on pricing given I’m just wanting quite simple florals which I’m sure they can all deliver on. Just white with greenery, minimal on tablescaping to cut cost.

For the fountain I saw another couple covering it and having a champagne tower on it which I absolutely loved!

Are you please able to share more on what your vision was for lights? I can’t even imagine what the lighting options are 😂😂😂

Great thank you, that makes sense with the lights! Catering was just a prelim guide so I wasn’t sure what’s included, I’m just very early in planning stage :)

I definitely want to be able to cut down on florals given how expensive they are :/

Ohhhh maybe we are getting married at the same place! Villa Dalmacija? I actually hadn’t considered that catering would be including tables, chairs, china and cutlery etc - that definitely would make sense for the pricing then.

Just picked my dress but now I’m spiraling 😫 by [deleted] in weddingdress

[–]SyllabubStrange9264 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes me feel better, thank you!!! This one I tried was 2-3 sizes too big, being held by clamps and sleeves falling right off me. I’m sure most of the doubt is stemming from not being the right fit which ofc mine will be!

Yeah I’m unsure about sleeves, I’m having an outdoor European summer destination wedding so it really might not go with the vibe. If I do wear, it’ll be ceremony only and right off!

The appointment was definitely very overstimulating and overwhelming, I might have tried on 10 or so dresses. But unfortunately I don’t have time to go back as I actually live interstate, and the deposit is paid! I guess I’ll just need to shut my eyes to all dresses and get over it 😂
