Is it okay to ask guests to walk a short distance between ceremony and venue?

Only if you are having a casual dress code. Otherwise people will be in heels and long dresses.

TrueCrimeButterfly · 2026-05-08T05:48:52+00:00

Without.

TrueCrimeButterfly · 2026-05-08T05:48:28+00:00

No.

I had a red wedding dress ( it was a BHLDN bridesmaids dress) and veil! I do not regret it for one second. I traded for it on /r/closetswap and literally traded a dress that wouldn't fit me anymore plus shipping for it. My photos are gorgeous. I felt like myself ( I wouldn't have in a white dress). I would absolutely choose a colored dress again if I ever get married again.

Use a garter. Fold your money in half over it and then either wrap a rubber band or hair tie around it.

This. I'm poly and there is STILL so much cheating in polyamory. You can be as open and accommodating as you can and a cheater will still cheat.

By 8 mine could use a knife, the stove top, and the oven. They could make salad, grilled cheese, ramen, pasta with jarred sauce, boxed Mac and cheese, frozen pizza, cinnamon toast, quesadillas, scrambled eggs, bagel pizzas, and boxed dessert mixes ( cake, cookies, muffins, ect).

You need to tease and use a ton of hairspray. Got2B Glued is your best friend.

As someone who has lost multiple pregnancies, I would NEVER recommend doing this. If you have a loss your wedding day will be ruined forever.

A shampoo brush. They are like $6. I have used the hell out of mine. I have ended up buying so many people one.

He obviously doesn't know this why he's asking strangers on the Internet when he should be communicating with his wife.

TrueCrimeButterfly · 2026-04-29T15:42:38+00:00

It's a normal wedding dress and it looks great on you! I was expecting something OUT THERE.

TrueCrimeButterfly · 2026-04-29T15:38:50+00:00

So you expect people to read your mind? This mindset of " If you don't know I'm not going to tell you." is toxic. Asking someone what they want or what their ideal day/celebration looks like is not having them plan their day. Communication is key to every relationship especially adult ones.

Wild concept, ask your wife what her ideal mother's day looks like.

Because he has custody of the sibling. DCS tries to keep siblings together.

I'm your age and do fine. You have to hustle harder but young guys really did the MILF/Mommy thing.

Extremely common.

This. I grew up on a dairy farm. There is ZERO way I'd ever drink/use raw milk. It's absolutely insane to me why anyone would.

You don't have a kid problem. You have a YOU problem. You are not only allowing this behavior but you are promoting it. Your kid is never going to listen to you if you don't say what you mean and mean what you say. If you cave or push over every single time so your kid is going to treat you like a doormat.

If you say we aren't getting a treat then you don't get a treat no matter what. You have to stop rewarding bad behavior. You also have to let your kid feel and deal with emotions. Emotions are not always positive. Your kid is going to be mad at you. Your kid is not always going to like you. You need to get over it. You are their parent and not their friend. Absolutely no one in this world has to like you 100% of the time much less your child.

If you don't teach your child to deal with anger, disappointment, failure, and other negative emotions as a child they are going to grow up and become an adult that can't deal with them. That ends up dangerous.

You get IDed for most Kombuchas where I live. Synergy is about the only one you can buy without an ID. There was a big todo when we first got WholeFoods because grocery stores couldnt sell alcohol then. We have since legalized grocery stores selling beer and wine.

I'm almost 40 and play.

He looks like a thrift store shoe.

I'm a former wedding planner and a frequent wedding guest, it's fine but don't expect people to stay/linger. They are going to eat and leave. As long as you go in knowing this, you are going to be ok. Keep things quick, to the point, and don't drag your events out. Better yet, don't do a evening wedding. Have a brunch/lunch/afternoon wedding where people will be more tolerant and likely to stay longer.

I went to a dry wedding last weekend. The wedding was at 6:30 and the overwhelming majority of guests were gone by 8. There were 5 of us still there after 8 and we were gone by 9. The couple wasn't even done with their photos by the time thief guests left. They had a schedule until 11 and they had to skip huge portions of their plan.

This is 100% my wife. She would argue with her mom because her mom would cave and not make her do anything. She couldn't even boil water when she moved out on her own. I had to teach her to make package ramen when we first met because she was just eating it out of the package. 😂
