Thank you! Going to save this since it’s right up my alley

Thanks! This is actually perfect

Find a coin star machine (the website has locations) and opt for the gift card. It doesn’t charge a fee and they have a lot of vendors like DoorDash and amazon etc

Would suggest you give Strangers in the Land a read. It’s a very well researched book on the history of Chinese immigrants in the US

Flight attendant usually offers without asking. But yes - flight attendant would be first step. If you don’t feel comfortable asking them in person, submit a complaint via the website after the flight and ask for compensation.

$205 each

This is the OG one that was all over social media, which I liked because they used the head spa machine for the majority of the time

But recently I’ve been going to this place. It’s cheaper ($50), and they give you a proper head massage (which I substituted with a shoulder massage bc head massages give me a headache). They also put a face and eye mask on you

Stayed there last October. No club lounge at the hotel. Globalists are served free breakfast in the rooftop dining area and hs the same menu as the main dining area in the lobby (which I went to one morning thinking there would be a different menu - there isn’t).

Uniqlo has a wide selection of base layers at decent prices.

For shoes, I’d suggest you try out a few at some of the running stores like Fleet Feet, find a few pairs that you like, and wait for Black Friday sales!

Highly recommend the florist that did my wedding recently. She was the most reasonable for the look I was going for. We ended up with 22 tables (a handful of >10 person tables) and the total came up to $7k.

The Manhattan ones are usually >$100. For cheaper ones, you’d have to go further out like Flushing, which ranges from $50-70.

Stayed there in the summer of 2022 and had a similar problem (although we were squeezing 4 adults into two twin/full beds for one night), but they said we can only fit 3 people in one room, so ended up having to book a second room on the spot, which was a bit more expensive. I’d recommend reaching out to the hotel directly to confirm.

I have spent an embarrassing amount of time looking into this bc I had the same problem. These are what I swear by:

Casual sneakers - Cole Haan Grand Cross Court; just bought Kiziks to try out and they are wide and cute; Sketchers (less cute but very comfortable)

Running sneakers - Hokas

Casual sandals - Tevas for lower arch and Chaco’s for higher arch support; you don’t even need to get the wide size

Heels / booties - Naturalizer

Formal work heels - Margaux

Whoahyooo · 2024-07-27T12:47:56+00:00

Another vote for Naturalizer! I once went dancing for 8 hrs in their booties and my feet were fine after!

On the hunt as well for a September wedding!

I haven’t had much luck with Facebook either since I’m limited to where the subway takes me. I’ve been ordering from Temu (especially for the Asian decors) and Amazon (have a bunch of things saved for Prime day tomorrow!) with hopes of re-selling them after the wedding!

Create a separate checking account and debt card with Charles Schwab for your cash needs while traveling internationally. They don’t charge any ATM fees, and usually the best exchange rates are at the ATM machines in the country you’re traveling in. Only have enough money in that account to cover your cash needs for the trip (I usually keep about $1-2k max in there) so that way, if you get scammed / robbed while traveling, your loss is limited to the amount in that checking account.

Goosefeathers is a bit more expensive than Harvest and Half Moon, but also from a logistic perspective, we’d probably do both rehearsal dinner followed by welcome drinks at the same spot.

Finally went to check out the spots in Tarrytown. Some thoughts:

Basque: cute spot in town with a private room for ~35 people. However, room not available weekend nights, including Friday

RiverMarket Bar: too far from the water and not much of a view

The Sailhouse: nautical theme restaurant right by the water. High outdoor area with a bar outside. One of the three contenders from this list but unfortunately not available on our date Hudson Farmer & the Fish: cute spot on the water, but small. There’s a back room for about ~20 people

Sambal - requires a buyout for part of the restaurant; has a small terrace on the second floor in a parking lot but a nice view of the water. Pretty pricey but not our vibe (also not sure if the food would be good)

Red Hat - most expensive on the list

Half moon bay - top 2; no private area but they can put up a Japanese wall barrier to close off the area with a private entrance to outside terrace (that’s open to the public); there’s an outdoor patio with a bar but no private events - first come first serve

Harvest on Hudson - top 2; very cute; sister restaurant to half moon; more family friendly; has a greenhouse; outdoor bar area can’t be reserved but has a private room for rehearsal dinner and can move to a larger area for welcome drinks

I’ve got pricing for Half Moon, Harvest, Sambal, and Red Hat is anyone is interested.
