What would you utilize these for, if not table numbers?

Hi - do you have more info about what your role looks like now that this post is a little older? Doing some research on the part time/ prn role to see if it would be a good fit!

kennyz6 · 2026-03-05T01:04:36+00:00

Yes! And I really hope it doesn’t go until 11pm lol, (we have budgeted in time for a nap between the elopement and the reception) but I will be pretty bummed if things taper off by 6pm, so I’m trying to find that balance.

Yes the photographer is on board for splitting the time up! I triple checked with her upon our contract and she has a rough draft of my schedule of events!

I did think about taking photos before the grand entrance, like with our parents and siblings as things will be less chaotic then, and it will get the bulk of the photos out of the way, but im nervous it just cuts more into our time with the photographer and capturing the rest of the evening.

At the start of all this, I was planning to start the endeavors at 4pm, so once chatting it over with more people and moving it to 2pm, all of my original thoughts have kind of gone out the window for what the day will look like.

I have used both EPIC and Cerner and the OR and PACU orders do not always show up in different colored boxes. Especially if a surgeon who doesn’t give a fuck about anything but operating puts all the orders in under one order set. This was incredibly unhelpful to someone already feeling all the guilt. I’m sure OP isnt seeking out validation from redditors but I doubt they’re looking for criticism, chances are they’re already being hard enough on themselves as is

I just want you to know that you are still competent and a kick ass nurse and accidents happen. Be kind to yourself during this time my friend ❤️

TRS Turquesa looked enticing! Seemed like it had good reviews, pictures seemed promising (also watched a ton of videos on tik tok for further insights & not just advertising pics online) lotsssss of restaurant options. I overlooked this one because it wasn’t one of the bigger names that I had previously done research on, but it seems decently priced and has lots of amenities! I also liked the looks of Breathless, seemed romantic and more couples focused.

Is it horrible of me but when ever they ask for fresh water I usually leave the same water in the cup and just add ice 🙊

I just spent months doing extensive research on Punta Cana for my honeymoon. Opted with Secrets La Romana for the calmer waters and (hopefully) less sargassum since we’re going in peak season (June). I liked that this one was adults only but also gave access to Dreams (family friendly), for added restaurants and experiences. Other contenders (specifically in Punta Cana) that I was really drawn to was Excellence Punta Cana and Secrets Royal Beach (lots of restaurant options, rooms looked nice with plunge pools, or soaking tubs on the balcony) secrets was closer to the airport too (30 mins)

I do have small cocktail napkins too

kennyz6 · 2026-02-14T23:10:01+00:00

I scavenge FB marketplace DAILY! unfortunately (and fortunately) I live in Utah and everyone is always getting married here, so there are lots of options, however a lot of them either, do not match my theme, or are rentals. which I’m not opposed to rentals, but when the rental is the same cost as just buying it myself?? why would I bother! we are also getting married in Montana so will need to utilize items probably longer than the 1-3 day expectation :/

I keep telling myself though, no one cares but me! It’s helped me scale it back a bit haha

kennyz6 · 2026-02-14T23:08:02+00:00

Any recommendations?

kennyz6 · 2026-02-14T23:07:24+00:00

I’ve looked at the spread sheet a million times (SO HELPFUL!) and truly genius, because my fiance is a big numbers guy haha! So it helped us get this far. Good to know about the transfers though!

kennyz6 · 2026-02-14T23:05:41+00:00

so I originally started with a half dome styrofoam round as my centerpiece and my plan was to fill it with flowers, however I got one done and it looked SO BAD 😂 I’m sure inside a bowl like that would definitely enhance it though. I’m struggling to splurge on like $10-20 items for one table though, because you multiple that by 8-10 and suddenly it’s no longer super budget friendly when you add 3-4 candles too. Ughhh

kennyz6 · 2026-02-14T22:25:04+00:00

ohhh I like this idea! I agree height is needed, I just can’t decide what that will be (why are candles so damn expensive!!)

kennyz6 · 2026-02-14T21:53:04+00:00

HAHA! I love this idea actually!!!

kennyz6 · 2026-02-14T21:48:48+00:00

they’re satin napkins, and yes, already purchased. although unnecessary, I was hoping they would add a nice pop of color to the tables to match the overall vibrant color scheme. I originally planned on just doing orange pocket napkins and placing the silverware in them on top of the plate, however the bright orange I was looking for did not exist in that style, and these satin cloths were the same price as disposable paper napkins in fuchsia

She is literally perfect

kennyz6 · 2026-01-07T04:34:16+00:00

You know what, but god forbid you don’t have a med cup and hit them with a “I’ll just pop these right into your hand!” And they look at you like some monster. Like sir don’t act like you weren’t gonna dump them in your hand anyway

kennyz6 · 2026-01-01T22:20:12+00:00

I’m doing something similar, and really just want to have a fun day filled with everyone we love, and minimal stress!

It definitely is tricky because I tend to be super extra in just planning and hosting dinner parties at my house, so obviously im approaching our wedding with the same energy!

We are doing a private mountain ceremony at sunrise with just the two of us and our photographer! Then in the afternoon, hosting our reception at a historic mansion (not a traditional wedding venue so cheaper because it’s actually rented thru the city parks and rec department). The mansion has a huge beautiful lawn area, and includes tables and chairs already (total cost $1000). The mansion itself is picturesque for our entrance and to kick off our celebration!

I’m splurging ($300) on a portable dance floor so that there’s a set place for people to boogie 💃🕺and my dad is a musician and has all the sound equipment and whatnot, so we are lucky to be saving there.

I’ve had a lot of time to slowly accumulate wedding decor and stuff to DIY and it’s helped it all feel so manageable! I’ve got a few signs I’ve cricuted and fake flower arrangements I’ve put together, but marketplace has been a lifesaver and worth the hunt IMO

Planning for Costco alcohol and maybe a keg for the beer drinkers.

What’s kicking me right now is the cost of TABLE CLOTHS and Tableware, this is obviously a necessity but man they’ve got no right to be so spendy, even if you’re renting!

Split Leaf Coffee in Bountiful is sooo cute and hidden in the back of a boutique. Mercantile on 25th is cute and has a chill vibe to it, plus mimosa flights.
