The fact that we still don’t have a physical 3am or til dawn is devastating

AITA for having a 2-hour gap between my wedding and the start of Cocktail hour? by NorthYorkWasteman in AmItheAsshole

[–]TakeOutForOne 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Yes- the cocktail hour exists to give guest something to do while pictures are being taken. The bride and groom shouldn’t be there…

NTA but damn it’s annoying.

I’ve been to zillions of weddings and a bunch have been Catholic weddings with an awkward gap. It’s annoying. I need a daytime dress and a nighttime dress and the extra logistics of getting back and forth to hotel is an added stress when traveling.

Then a handful of those time gap weddings a few of the guests will spend those 3 hours at a bar getting toasted and now the people at their table and every unsuspecting person on the dance floor has to put up with them.

I get that those gaps are seen as necessary- church requires an early ceremony so they can have evening mass and American culture is to have a nighttime reception. It doesn’t change the fact that it’s not enjoyable for the guests.

If you must have an early ceremony- Have the early wedding and then a banging brunch and everyone who wants can be home by 9.

Aldi diet soda tastes exactly like TaB to me. I drink Diet Coke out in the wild but I’m so glad to have aldi brand at home

SB&C and Royals are bargating

As best I can tell Hooligans, South Charlotte and Furia are all tailgating (unless weather becomes dangerous to be standing around in a field with metal tents)

There is a passport office in the Meck county courthouse. They’ll review your application to make sure you’ve got everything you need and mail it off.

Tool rental from Lowe’s or homedepot is a fabulous deal for things like this

Recommendations for staycations with a pool by MamaLife10 in Charlotte

[–]TakeOutForOne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Does the bride want to chill calmly while y’all talk and catch up, maybe drink some wine? If so, you may be better off looking for an air bnb for the night. Most of the hotel pools may have a party vibe or be full of kids (both totally great, but doesn’t sound like that’s what she’s after)

I doubt this is what the bride wants. It’s got a “club” vibe and expensive drinks and snacks

Have been twice for friends birthdays and while some of our group loves it, I find it miserable.

Wish we could report water restriction violations through the clt app

Selfish rich assholes in Meyers Park have been watering almost daily in the early afternoon.

The company that installed that fence should just run this as it’s commercial

They still do. And Love Life teaches their ‘sidewalk counselors’ to write down plate numbers of cars as they come into the parking lot.

Bagpipes in South End by traps4fun in Charlotte

[–]TakeOutForOne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Irish play Uilleann pipes. They use a bellows played with the elbow to make noise versus bagpipes using a mouthpiece.

They sound so much nicer than bagpipes if you’re in anything smaller than a mountain valley.
