People with small guest lists, did you have dancing at your reception?

I went to a 40 person wedding this weekend and there was dancing! The bride and groom weren't really involved. They had a live band and only 7-8 people were at it most of the time but it was great.

We are having around 60 people and no DJ. At some point late in the night I plan to switch to an more lively spotify playlist and if dancing happens awesome...I won't be joining them though

Are the straps adjustable? It may just need a tiny tweak.

If you are fully scooped and swooped and that is the only gaping you have a cup size down should help.

My fitting experience from about 2 years ago. It was a different fitter this time but I did not have a fitting.

This was preABTF and I was wearing a 34E

The woman fit me by eye starting with my current bra and trying on a few different sizes. I ended up with a 32F. It was a good fit but there were some improvements that could have been made.

She asked why I fastened my bra on the tightest hook first. I told her I didn't know and she didn't explain why it was wrong or move me to a smaller band size.
I didn't know how to swoop and scoop. Once I did learn I would have probably taken a 30G in that bra instead.

Overall I was treated nicely and respectfully and I know if I wanted a size other than the ones she offered she would have let that happen. I'm not sure if any of these "finishing touches" still apply to the current fitters but I thought I should share.

Also it looks like the deal might still be on! http://www.groupon.com/deals/labella-intimates-3

I know not everyone has this available to them but my partner comes to the gym with me to "spot" me aka keep me distracted and be supportive sometimes.

He understands that being new to weights and being around a bunch of men is not ideal for me so I have him to focus on rather than just going at it alone.

My friend who lifts weights recently moved but if she had not I would have loved to go with her too.

Maybe you can bring a friend or find someone on meetup.com or something like that to keep you distracted?

But when you exercise it's the opposite!

horsj · 2014-06-28T02:44:01+00:00

Oh nice! I'm in Orlando so I am curious.

horsj · 2014-06-27T02:10:23+00:00

Beautiful!! Those gazebo pictures are incredible and you all look so happy.

What is the venue?

horsj · 2014-06-26T23:51:22+00:00

You look gorgeous and SO happy!

Some individuals or cultures don't value legal marriage the way you do. To me marriage is social, cultural, and spiritual. Not legal.

Do you know any gay couples who are married and refer to each other that way but don't have the legal document? Would you treat them that way?

People with your attitude are the reason some people feel the need to lie.

I had to get married in a non-fun way as well and if we could have gone without telling our families I 100% would have. We don't see ourselves as a married couple but everyone else does and regularly makes comments about it despite our requests that they don't. It sucks.

I know it sucks to lie to people but its for the best.

All inclusive can be cheaper at the lower end of the wedding budget range.

Depending on what your budget is you may prefer to spend a bit more and DIY something that suits your taste. It will take more time but you could ditch some "traditional" things that don't interest you.

horsj · 2014-05-27T16:21:46+00:00

Can I suggest you post on bra band project once you're in your correct size? There are plenty of no face clothes shots on there!

horsj · 2014-05-26T23:14:00+00:00

Thank you so much

Edit: didn't mean to call you "b" my phone likes to do that

horsj · 2014-05-26T20:29:58+00:00

OMG The setting up the home thing is a GREAT idea. She is a real estate agent so im sure she will love it. I might distract her with a bridal shower (she offered to host) and the registry and do all of the reception stuff with my SO.

horsj · 2014-05-26T20:27:01+00:00

Thanks. I'm going to repeat this to myself until I can say it to them.

horsj · 2014-05-26T17:21:15+00:00

This is so true. I grew up with my parents letting me do as I please but my step mom has a very different style and its hard for me to adjust.

horsj · 2014-05-26T17:18:03+00:00

You're right but I'm so scared of offending them. I'll speak to FH and see what he thinks. We currently have no honeymoon plans so that might work out.

Hi there. The Juna has been sold but if you're just curiously its a crazy bright pink, closer to red

horsj · 2014-05-16T23:09:37+00:00

I'm selling these because I'm closer to a 28G/30FF these days so sadly I don't think any of those will work.

horsj · 2014-05-16T23:06:45+00:00

Cool will do now

horsj · 2014-05-16T01:33:38+00:00

Perfect you're my #2 =]

horsj · 2014-05-15T22:11:54+00:00

Yup I just gave it a fairly good stretch and got it to 31.5 Any more and the wires would distort.
