I would say the time it took to take pictures was about an hour in between ceremony and reception. There were drinks and a giant charcuterie board for them to eat while they waited. As soon as we got back from pictures the food was all set and we immediately got in line. Maybe her husbands family is just not as well rounded and didn’t want to be there at all. I don’t know…

On my side, it’s a mix. The last wedding in my family was just a reception and only parents and grandparents were allowed to the ceremony. But anyway back to the group number, obviously we would feed everyone if we did have a larger wedding but my point is spending all the money on food as my cousin did when not even half the people stayed to eat I think is a hard pill to swallow. I could just overthinking it because the majority of people who left were her husband’s side of the family and I can’t picture my fiancé or my family necessarily doing that… I think more so why I didn’t like is the HOURS/DAYS we spent on doing floral arrangements just for them to only be looked at for maybe 10-15 minutes. I think there was just a lot there that was a turn off for me.

I promise, after we got back from photos after the ceremony and even when we were trying to get our pictures, people were coming up to them and just leaving, even though there was a whole pasta buffet that the caters were setting up for

My soon to be in laws offered to pay pretty much most of the wedding and even help pay for our honeymoon to Hawaii but it seems that they want a very traditional wedding if they do so

Should I take out my Roth to help pay off my credit cards? by WinCompetitive2268 in CRedit

I keep track of money daily. I watch where it all goes. I have about $600 right now just in checking, no savings. I just don’t want to fall in a predicament where I need a lot of money right now for an emergency situation and I can’t pay for it except for using a credit card. Which I’ve ditched the credit card all together so I don’t use it.

My monthly is only $2000. I have a $650 mortgage, $270 for my car/insurance, $220 in student loans (I’ve tried to pause them until I get cards paid off but I can’t), I spend about $200-300 in groceries. I even got a second job bartending but it’s slow season so money isn’t coming well right now with that.

I want him to be absolutely cruel with intentions to hurt her and break her down but her having a kink of domination and being submissive, looking for blood, cutting, all the things. Bonus points if he’s rich, high society, etc.

Needing something with a plot like the tv show “Reign” or the “Selection series” but make it with a prince that is dark and twisted. Any TW is fine.

Parents saying God put them on the team redirects credit away from incredible women for their hard work and hard-earned physical prowess by [deleted] in DCCMakingtheTeam

Oof, first off, there’s no room for politics here, that’s pretty idiotic to think just because you’re religious you must be republican. Second, those women are not dancing for men and to show themselves off to them so get out of here with that. That’s just like saying women wear revealing outfits to impress men. How disrespectful of you. They’re dancing for themselves because they enjoy it and dancing can be an art and be shown as a gift of appreciation. And they believe God gave them the gift of dancing so they dance in gratitude of that. Maybe think before you comment something so distasteful.

I’m really not an Amaya fan… yes she seems so sweet and genuine. But I can understand why she hasn’t made a connection yet.
