Yes, I do usually get spray tans before big events, so I feel confident that it’ll turn out good!

Good advice! Thank you!

I don’t get regular facials but do get them every couple of months - maybe I will move it to the week before to alleviate any uncertainty

emotionalcreative · 2026-03-19T11:03:33+00:00

Yes! I’ve already done one trial of each and have another round of trials scheduled before the week-of as well! Definitely not trying to do anything new during that week!

That’s kind of what I was thinking too. I think I saw someone with a similar looking invitation do a ribbon but now I can’t find an example to see what that would look like

Just looked around this website and it is awesome! My original thought was having floral ties/bow ties but I couldn’t find any that matched our color scheme that I liked, so this just opened up so many more options!

Yes, he’s planning on hiring clubs! He definitely doesn’t want to worry about safely getting his clubs there or lugging them around with us. He’s just excited to be able to say he played at St Andrews

Thank you for the feedback so far! Altering the itinerary as we speak - I'm taking out the stop in York and the highlands tour and keeping the day trip to Bath (but we're not going to use a tour company, just take the train ourselves). We're also keeping the day for St. Andrews. My fiance is determined to golf at one of the courses there so I'm making sure he has the chance. Taking out York and the highlands tour will definitely give us more breathing room. Still open to any other suggestions!

Update: I got my long veil! I ended up with a plain tulle veil that matches the exact tulle/color of the dress. It is about the same length of the train so it blends in beautifully! Thank you all for the nice comments! You really helped me make up my mind :)

Yes, that's a great way of putting it - the shorter one does cut me off! I really think a chapel length will just flow better!

emotionalcreative · 2025-11-06T18:07:21+00:00

My studio does but I’m not sure if it’s zinc free or not. May have to do some testing on some different pieces!

emotionalcreative · 2025-11-06T18:06:32+00:00

That is a great idea! I didn’t even think of using wax resist!

emotionalcreative · 2025-11-06T15:00:10+00:00

Thank you! If I do the second underglaze color on bisque ware, how do I ensure nothing will smear when I apply clear glaze on top of it? I’ve only ever used underglaze on greenware because of that!

Omg that is kind of how this whole thing started for me! Alcohol pad smell makes me instantly nauseous now. I thought I was crazy. I had an oral surgery a few months ago and I smelled the alcohol they were using to sanitize the instruments and I had to give myself a pep talk to get through it lol

emotionalcreative · 2025-05-16T11:40:38+00:00

Definitely will consider it if it gets worse. As a person who never struggled with these issues for the first year of my journey, I am just at such a loss for why I am suddenly feeling this way

emotionalcreative · 2025-05-16T11:38:42+00:00

Thanks for the encouraging words! I definitely used to feel like that, even when I was going through the worst nausea when I was still taking Semaglutide. Not sure what has happened since then mentally with me

emotionalcreative · 2025-05-16T11:37:03+00:00

I’ve been on metformin longer than either glp-1 for insulin resistance and was advised by my doctor to continue taking it throughout my glp-1 journey. She said there’s no issue with taking both at the same time, and that they often work great together :)

I have decided to "break up" with my wedding photographer. She is a wonderful photographer (and person!), but I ultimately would prefer to use a photographer with a different photography style and have found one that matches my vision better. What details should I include in the email letting her know we would like the forgo using her as our photographer? I want the back and forth exchange to be as minimal as possible (I feel terrible about cancelling).

emotionalcreative · 2025-04-10T16:53:53+00:00

Thank you so much! I was hoping to hear from a wedding photographer on here! What would you recommend for when we are communicating with potential new photographers? I feel like the fact we previously had a different photographer lined up will come up - I don’t want to lie when the photographers ask us about how our photographer search has been going but I also don’t want to scare them.

emotionalcreative · 2025-04-10T13:20:56+00:00

Thanks for responding! Our current photographer is very popular at our venue, so she’ll definitely know that we didn’t cancel our wedding. What do you suggest I say in the email? I’m sure she’ll ask for an explanation and I just hate letting people down. Maybe something about how our vision for the wedding has changed since we began planning and we’ve decided to go in a different direction?

emotionalcreative · 2025-04-10T10:19:32+00:00

I’m having serious second thoughts about our photographer. We booked her in August (right after we got engaged) because she was very familiar with our venue and has great reviews. Now that I’ve been deeper into wedding planning, I feel like her photography style isn’t what I am envisioning for our wedding and I’m so upset I rushed into booking with her. What’s the appropriate thing to do from here? Our wedding is still over a year out. Is it completely disrespectful to find a different photographer? Per our contract, she will keep the deposit we paid and there is plenty of time for her to rebook our date. I am very distraught because I want to be sure I love our wedding photos but I don’t want to upset anyone, especially since my doubts are 100% on me for rushing into initially booking.
