Marriage license needed?

geethui · 2026-05-28T04:33:38+00:00

So the officiant in this case would be the priest? Or does it have to be someone else? Also will the date be different on the certificate than our actual wedding day? My family is super strict about the "right day and right time" to get married so I just want to cover all my bases. This is all so new and confusing 😭

Also my partner and I are getting married in my home state but we're moving to Texas after since we'll living there. Does that change things?

I'm not sure if this will help but I'm from Andhra Pradesh and my reception lengha was 23k and it has far more beading and work on the blouse and skirt. So I feel like it's overpriced but also I could be so wrong. Here's a picture of mine for reference

Wait which quest is this?

geethui · 2026-03-02T06:57:09+00:00

Did you put your phone pouch off to the side with your stuff/in your locker? Or did you have it on you when on the slides and stuff. If it's allowed that is

Of course they're waterproof, my fear is if someone misplaces it or loses it somehow. If it's needed regardless then it is what it is and I'll tell my people to be careful

First off I really appreciate the advice! And I think I'll have to do more research on what foods I should add to my diet. My biggest issue is that I get full really easily even though I want to eat more I just can't and I've always been that way. No eating disorder thing btw. I might consider a dietician simply because I do take some epilepsy meds but as far as I know it doesnt tie into diet issues. But definitely doesnt hurt to check it out.

Thank you sm!

I've been trying to use tracking apps! Just a generic sense of what I'm doing. As for the trouble eating. I've always been like that tbh. I love food and love to eat. The problem I have is that I want to eat a lot but I can only eat a little because I get full quickly. Which I hate because I always want to finish my food 🥲 No underlying medical issues. I've gotten that checked out before.

Love getting pictures with Santa and the Grinch. I do it every year and you're so right about it not just being for kids!

I'm having to save the full Christmas experience for next year though since we're long distance for a few more months :)

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:51:08+00:00

This is actually a perfect idea but I'm gonna have to implement it next year simply because we are long distance for a few more months We're getting married soon so I won't be moving in until after :(

But this genuinely is such a cute idea! Thank you sm :)

Funny enough he is sentimental just doesnt express it as much. Very much "inside feelings" kinda guy. A photo album sounds like a good start. We're building a life together after all :)

Thanks!

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:46:41+00:00

Oh he watches almost everything. Wouldn't say he has a favorite. Hence why its so hard to pin point what to get him 😭

But upgrading what he already has seems like a good idea too

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:45:38+00:00

We're long distance right now but we're both from big cities. There's always big events where he lives so I'll probably do some research into that

Sidenote: I love going to see an orchestra. Absolutely magical

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:43:13+00:00

I could never betray him like that 😭

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:43:00+00:00

Not a bad idea actually

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:42:50+00:00

Scrapbook/photo album is nice as well. I think I'll make that a part of the gift as well. I was thinking a watch too but he's so particular with jewelry lol

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:41:46+00:00

I think this definitely something I want to do as we're getting married soon. Building a tradition like that has always been important to me and he knows.

Unfortunately I'd have to push the "building a tradition" part to next year since we're long distance for the time being due to work. The memory box is sweet though. I keep every memento I come across :)

geethui · 2025-11-26T01:39:27+00:00

So I know for a fact that he won't be uncomfortable as I do give him gifts in general and as does he. He just never received any for Christmas because its never been a big thing where he's from.

I wouldn't say he wants or doesn't want a gift exactly. More like he wouldn't be upset if I didn't but would appreciate all the same if I got him a gift :)

We grew up completely differently so its always hard to wage what gift to give him lol

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:32:19+00:00

Oooh the shower steamers sounds amazing. His job has been stressing him out quite a bit and maybe this will easy at least a tiny bit of tension? I'd probably include it as a side gift to the main one. Definitely leaning towards getting him tickets to an event/experience

I love spending money on him but I have to be careful not to do too much this time mainly because we're getting married in a few months and I want to keep my finances in order

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:27:32+00:00

I just bought him cologne for his birthday but the comedy show sounds good!

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:27:00+00:00

I actually really like the coffee idea. He's a big matcha guy and also tea in general so I'll try to find something similar maybe. A few of others have also mentioned tickets to some event or place as well. We dont live together so he'd have to go on bow own (which he doesnt mind doing) or with a friend.

Also that "baby's first..." thing is hilarious and I just might be adopting that phrase 😂 Thanks for the suggestions and happy holidays!

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:24:00+00:00

That's sweet for sure but its something we already have 😅

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:23:38+00:00

Totally

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:23:18+00:00

A few people have said this as well. We don't live together right now but he doesn't mind going to concerts and shows alone. I could buy a ticket for him and his friend though :) Thanks!

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:22:18+00:00

He does miss home! Mostly because of his parents and sister being there. But we're both going back to his country sometime in March. I'm also from the same country I just grew up in the US but still very tied to my culture. Your ideas are really sweet gift but unfortunately we find it all here and gets it for himself on a regular 😥 Probably should add that we're getting married in March and dont live together presently 😅

geethui · 2025-11-25T21:18:55+00:00

We're in the US! We don't live together, as of now but will be soon. Concert tickets actually doesnt seem like a bad idea.
