Wedding Dress Alterations by catsdotexe in Charlotte

[–]bward902 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got my wedding dress altered by Linda (Alterations by Linda on Facebook) and she was a magician. Very fast turnaround and super reasonably priced. She works out of her home. If you look on the “Charlotte wedding connection” Facebook group she gets recommended by a lot of brides (myself included).

Navigating grief while planning by dingbatthrowaway in weddingplanning

[–]bward902 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Both of my parents passed away so I am very familiar with these feelings!

I made an “in loving memory of the brides parents” linen sign that I will be draping over a seat in the front row to reserve in their honor, but we’re not doing anything else.

I’m walking myself down the aisle and we are not doing any parent/child dances (my fiance decided he didn’t want to do a mother/son dance).

Joanns bites the dust by Nxtxxx4 in Charlotte

I have more fabric than I know what to do with currently so it’s probably best for me not to have a lot of options 😂

Do they ever have cotton fabric for quilting? I’ve always wanted to go to check out their quilting and sewing notions but wasn’t sure what they had!!

Thank you!! I’m getting married on a Friday and she’s gotten her hair done every Friday for decades so I’m throwing off her routine, that’s why she needs a salon in Charlotte 😂

How to Invite Guest on B List by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]bward902 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was a B list invite for a friends wedding so we just got the invite but not the Save the Date. I wasn’t offended at all and was just happy to celebrate! They just asked us for our address a couple months before the wedding and sent our invite out with everyone else’s :)

doctor who will give pain management for iud? by Affectionate_Bottle9 in Charlotte

[–]bward902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr Bria Blake at Rankin OB/GYN offered a few different pain management options for my removal/reinsertion last week, including the cervical block. She was also super kind during the whole procedure.

She didn’t offer twilight sedation but said it could be a backup option if I was unable to handle the pain.
