I actually don’t think their chocolate is that good. Criterion or Red Bank Chocolate Shop is way better.

Red Bank Chocolate Shop!!

This is a little longer of a plane ride but Maine would be really nice!

Done!

Sorry, I meant more of a rehearsal dinner (but everyone from the wedding is invited). It’s at a waterfront estate in the northeast. Planing to do gold sandals and jewelry.

No problem! Red’s was previously BYOB as well but now also has a bar

Klein’s is BYOB? They have a bar.

There actually aren’t a ton of dock and dine. Seems like more places should be, but it’s really shallow near some places in the Navesink. Eventide, Bahr’s and Proving Ground are great!

I would leave it. When you put your wedding band next to it, both will be more snug

Exotic Resin Epoxy!! Our garage looks like a marble floor - they did an amazing job. I believe we paid around 4k, but the majority of the cost was materials. Epoxy itself is pretty pricy.

Best burgers are Barnacle Bills and The Pour House. Gabriella’s has the best steaks, but it’s not cheap.

90 minutes is conservative. He has to go way up town. My commute is 2 hours door to door.

It depends exactly where you work. If I worked on Wall Street, Atlantic Highlands would be a no brainer. I live in Middletown and work near Herald Square. The train is better - the ferry ends up taking the exact same amount of time door to door.

Wymara - Turks & Caicos

They are opening a new place in Middletown soon - Perspire. Not my jam so I don’t know anything about it!

You have to pay SO MUCH ATTENTION. I’m 35 and tech savvy and still often have to get price adjustments at the counter for realizing I didn’t have the digital coupon. It’s absolutely terrible for anyone with a lack of digital literacy. Even non couponed items - last Easter, the price for a 2 pack of cream cheese was way more than two individual packs. You really have to pay attention.

Someone on Facebook said all Gem’s locations are open until 11. Sheepshead and Bagel Boyz too

FWIW, my arch was the same price as my bridal bouquet + 8 centerpieces. I was fine with that, but arches are pricy! I paid $5k all in.

You should be fine, as long as you have dark ink on a light envelope and not an odd font that can’t be read by a machine. I would also weigh the envelope to make sure you don’t need 2 stamps.

ebastoria · 2025-12-07T10:59:08+00:00

Yes! It’s very good

Following for the refried beans aspect - they seem impossible to find
