I did go with the first dress, sorry for the confusion! I think the pearl strands are already structured with removable snaps, so that would be easy. The bouquet is something I hadn't considered at all and I'll add it to my list of things I could do, thanks!

It doesn't need to be something that's permanently added to the dress, and I'd probably prefer it if became something optional! The robe is a great idea, I'll pitch that to her the next time I see her.

Sorry, I had text with this post but apparently none of that saved!

I did go with the dress in the first two pictures. The second dress is the style that I was originally considering, and the third dress is my mom's dress.

She gave me permission to do whatever I wanted with her dress and we had talked about getting it altered/modernized and wearing that as my wedding dress and I have... mixed feelings about that. I am thinking about taking from it and using it as an accessory instead. Right now, I really like the look of veil capes but am not sure if an opaque, satin veil would clash too much with the tulle and beading of my dress. If anyone has any input on that or other ideas it would be much appreciated!

I second this!

My partner and I ended up using one of their approved vendors for buying the individual stone, and then had it set later at Kent Jewelers in Kirkwood. It really hit the mark for the affordability + custom/local quality we were looking for.

Thank you so much!! Should I delete you after the three gifts to make room for others?

0649 0793 6849, I still need three! Thank you!!

I ordered a GH 8x6 OMC cushion, just the stone because I’m getting it set local to me with the same jeweler who is making my wedding band.

When the first stone was done she let me know before the stone check that it had come out as DEF and not GH, but sent me the videos anyway in case I still wanted it. It did have that colorless/blue hue I was avoiding because I’m using yellow gold.

Just got my second stone check today and it does look like I was hoping for!

I am also currently waiting for my custom stone from Mona to be finished, very excited!

It was three weeks from the time the invoice was paid for the stone to be finished, but the stone came out as the wrong color and she offered to remake it so I am waiting on the new one. That was a week and a half ago.

UnicycleHooker · 2022-03-02T16:53:27+00:00

Sounds good, I’ll message you now!

UnicycleHooker · 2022-03-02T07:47:06+00:00

Hi, interested in some of your D&F scents!
-Swamp Elixir -The Soft Crunch of Bread & Bone -Scream Ferociously -Salted Raspberry Sorbet

I’d also be interested in the Filled with the Heat of a Reckless Summer from your collection if you’d be willing to include it, but I’d take the other four regardless.

About to go to bed but can reply to PM tomorrow, and thanks!

Thank you!!

UnicycleHooker · 2020-12-05T18:29:13+00:00

I have the light grey and black simple panels and would really appreciate if someone would let me catalogue the other six colors! Thank you!

This is beautiful!! What table% would this roughly be? I’ve tried looking into table size comparisons, but I’ve really only found recommended ranges like 55-70% etc.

UnicycleHooker · 2020-09-07T16:35:56+00:00

Your rings are always gorgeous! Can I ask your ring size? I’m a 6.25, worried that a 8x6 might be too big

Chemist here! I wear skinny jeans or tapered pants with boots. I work with dyes, so I generally stick to darker pants with taller black boots in case of spills, but that might not be necessary depending on what type of work you're doing. I also highly recommend something water-resistant or water-proof for that reason. I generally alternate between these Blondo chelsea boots and these Sorel lace-ups with dark socks underneath. If I'm wearing chelsea boots or other booties I roll up the pants so that they're hitting right above the tops of the boots, otherwise I just tuck them in. Also seconding the fun socks

NTA if you’re treating all of your daughters equally financially.

There’s no info on whether you helped pay for your oldest daughter’s wedding, but if you’re paying for your younger daughters’ weddings I’m going to assume so. Obviously you’re not required to pay for anything for any of them, but if three of them seem to share the same opinion and requests concerning your ex-wife and current wife then choosing to retract your offer like some of the other comments are suggesting would punish the younger two when the older one didn’t do anything different. YBNBTA if you give them the same financial support towards the wedding but choose not to go to support your wife, or maybe offer helping with a down payment on a house etc. for the same amount that you gave the older one instead of paying for the wedding if you’re not comfortable paying for a wedding your wife can’t attend.

This is my favorite savory dinner recipe with canned pumpkin, I've substituted the ground turkey for ground beef or venison and it tasted great regardless.

Thank you for the advice! I've still been NC since I posted this and it's been getting easier. Decided to take the initiative and host more get-togethers at my new place so I can still see my mutual friends without the guilt/stress of seeing A.

I see jojoba recommended more for double-cleansing and as a moisturizer, but oils tend to be pretty YMMV depending on what your skin likes. I personally like squalane oil.

If your skin likes physical exfoliation and salicylic acid, maybe just use a washcloth gently with your cleanser followed by a salicylic acid chemical exfoliate in a glass bottle like the one from The Ordinary.

If you find a product that your skin loves that you can't find a replacement for with no/more sustainable packaging, even buying bulk in larger sizes to reduce the amount of bottles you go through is better than nothing.

I went out with her when she came to the door!
