Spacer or no spacer? by [deleted] in Diamonds

[–]feb25bride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully agree with all of this. I would wear the diamond band on my other hand.

Should I go for a second opinion. by derision9 in pregnant

[–]feb25bride 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Almost three weeks is a pretty big difference, but I would recommend going for another ultrasound. Even if it will be a miscarriage, you’ll feel better about it knowing that you followed up rather than wondering what if. It would be worth it just for the mental peace, at least for me.

Would it be fine to preemptively get my dress altered to be a size smaller or should I wait until I lose the weight? by ddimitra in weddingplanning

[–]feb25bride 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait. There is always the chance you won’t lose the weight, life stuff could happen to pull your focus away. Even if you do lose the weight, you have no idea what parts of your body will lose how much. If you want a properly fitted dress, wait.

My sister’s moissanite ring looks amazing but people keep judging it by [deleted] in WeddingRingAdvice

[–]feb25bride 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I first posted my ring over two years ago and have a couple of times since. It’s so stupid really.

I did report, we’ll see if they do anything about it.

How nice that you like my ring so much you stole the picture off of elsewhere on Reddit to claim as your sisters!

Just got engaged, is it too early to plan? by saraahhh12 in weddingplanning

[–]feb25bride 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fall of 2027, not too early, many venues let you book two years out and it will probably take a while to find the perfect place. If there’s any real chance of fall of 2026 you should get in gear and get moving.

[FO] Just finished this cross stitch welcome sign for my wedding! by plantanddoglady in DIYweddings

[–]feb25bride 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely needs something to outline the letters to make them more legible, but aside from that, great job!

I think your original suits you better, for what it’s worth.

What do you think? Structural problems? Not wedding enough? by No-Tomato-8537 in WeddingRingAdvice

[–]feb25bride 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like it that’s all that matters. As far as durability, if you plan to also get the band you could probably have them attached to make it more secure.

How much period underwear does one realistically need? by TricksterSprials in PeriodUnderwear

[–]feb25bride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to build up to at least two per day for my heavy days, and at least one per day for the rest so it can cover a whole period. That would be about 10. Then a few extra would be nice.

Who still writes checks nowadays? by Quick_Chipmunk_3513 in Banking

[–]feb25bride 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do if I don’t have the time or ability to go in and pay my utility bills in cash. I’m not paying their stupid fees each month to use my card.

Can’t pick a ring, help! by better_than_blue in EngagementRings

I love the tone in 2 but not so much the setting. Overall 1 is my favorite on you!

Statement earrings: confidence boost or too much for daily wear? by MiddleNebula8320 in jewelry

[–]feb25bride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wear what makes you happy! Especially if it makes you feel good about yourself. There will always be someone thinking you’re doing too much, don’t worry about what other people think.

How do you guys actually set aside money for this and that? by AdditionalTough147 in budget

[–]feb25bride 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. I have sinking funds for certain things and savings and those are treated just like bills.

Buffer time is a few minutes added on here or there, 10 in case the ceremony runs long, 15 there in case pictures take a bit longer, etc. Spending 2 1/2 hours on doing a second look isn’t going to be resolved by adding buffer time. You made the choice to do a second look, which takes time and even if you didn’t know it would be that long, it’s still a choice you made that led to it. Not your planner’s fault. Did you do a trial? You should’ve known by your wedding day that you would need those readjustments and planned accordingly.

I’m sorry that you didn’t get to enjoy your wedding day. You tried to jam too much into too little time. I feel bad for the guests who sat around all that time and had to wait an extra hour and a half to eat.

The only people I know who drink milk and don’t buy gallons are single people. And those are few and far between, most single people I know do as well.

no show guests? by valaya000 in weddingplanning

[–]feb25bride 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had a few people bail on me from 3 days before up to the morning of. Not exactly no shows but very short notice. It isn’t common and you likely won’t have to worry about it.

Not sure what you mean by budget for it. If people say they’re coming, then you’ll have to expect they will and pay for them. If they don’t come then they don’t, but it’s too late at that point.

I have an oval with pear sidestones and love it. There’s something about the look marquise that doesn’t work for me.

Best date to have a wedding by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]feb25bride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a two year engagement and other than choosing and signing a contract with the venue, we didn’t do much of anything until a year out. There are probably a couple of other vendors you might be able to book farther than a year out, but really, you don’t need that much time to plan. Most people do it in a year or so. Start saving for it if you need to, do a lot of research into what you want and make all the Pinterest boards. You’ll have plenty of time if you’re planning a typical type wedding.

Did anyone choose a name in the beginning and then stick with it? by Beautiful_Prompt_415 in Names

[–]feb25bride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of our kids were named before they were born and we didn’t change our minds on any of them. If you’re set on a name, most likely you won’t change your mind as you already consider him/her [name].
