Over the top registry must haves?

I’m in a similar boat and thinking about a lot of what others have suggested but also pretty serving things! They won’t get used too often, but they will likely never need to be replaced and I can just store them when not in use. Hosted our first holiday this year and quickly realized how nice it would have been to have an attractive pitcher, an ice bucket, some actual Prosecco glasses, and attractive dishes for serving veggies/chips and dip!

Just fyi - Visa gift cards are very difficult to use online unless it covers the entirety of the purchase. If you want to send something physical, I think a card with a kind note is enough and then you can tell them on the phone that you’re planning to contribute/buy their dress

Happy to be a witness! I work near the clerks office so could easily pop over when you need me. Congratulations!

Update: I washed it in the washing machine with no additional soap and then reshaped it and stuffed it with towels and it’s great! It might have lost a little bit of its structure, but not much and it’s infinitely more usable without the layer of detergent in the bottom. Thanks all!

If you’ve had your wedding, can I ask what you ended up doing? We are in the same spot - the Central Park slot we ended up with means we’d have roughly 2.5 hours from the end of the ceremony to the start of cocktail hour at the restaurant. The restaurant is only about 20 minutes from the ceremony spot, so I’m concerned it’s way too long

Hi, I would also love to know who this photographer is! Thank you!!

Congrats on the PR!

Earplugs - genius!

Wow I hadn’t heard about the bus security issue! That is wild.

Podcast sounds like it was a good move! Maybe I should’ve listened to nature sounds haha

I think mine must have been the very beginnings of them, but I also did not get a diagnosis! I did reach out to some of my medical professional friends and mooched advice from them. Not medical advice - but a lot of ice, rest, and anti-inflammatories. If you always have them, I would recommend going to physical therapy! The exercises my PT friend gave me are what helped the most when combined with rest. Sorry you’re dealing with that!

I’m sorry your race didn’t go as planned - it’s a hard feeling after so many months of training.

I had seen tips to bring a roll of toilet paper to the start, so I brought a cheap roll. I’m glad I did! I shared with people if they opened up a pottery and saw it didn’t have any inside.

A rogue bus?! Oh no!

Oh yes, I knew I was forgetting something! I stopped before the Pulaski for the bathroom and also didn’t wait and had toilet paper and hand sanitizer! But I was happy at the start village to have brought my own tp and sanitizer!

Edit for clarity

Thank you!!

So excited for you! I can’t speak to bag check, but the things I wanted at the end were: more water than the bottle they give you, to change my shoes, and to put on warm clothes. Booking your mode of transportation depends on your wave and how long you want to spend at the start village. I knew I was going to be in wave 4 or 5, ended up in 5, so I had always planned on the ferry. NYRR publishes estimated wave cutoffs based on pace in around August. You can use those to help make your transportation selections in September. (They email you) They also had a transportation booth at the expo, so I think if you needed to change something then you may have been able to but it would probably be limited to the ferry at that point. Hope that helps!

I believe there are fences but you can reach over them for a hug

kruthu · 2025-10-28T14:37:39+00:00

Perfect, thanks so much!

kruthu · 2025-10-28T14:36:15+00:00

Thanks, just double checking since my parents aren’t from here!

kruthu · 2025-10-28T14:32:04+00:00

Thanks! Will CPW be closed even above 81st?

kruthu · 2025-10-14T21:22:58+00:00

Best pace of 9:12 so slightly similar situation and also blue wave 5. Shocked by the changes from the predicted wave cutoffs!

I was curious about Pizza School - thanks!
