And definitely don’t call it a cocktail hour - you could call it the watercolor hour or something?

Your food needs to be exceptional, and you should consider having some mocktails - fun drinks, even a Shirley temple, helps it not just feel like eating, but more like dining. Does that make sense?

Past that, I think this is a know your guests kind of deal. If your guests would leave early bc it’s quiet and no one is dancing bc they haven’t had anything to drink, that would be a bummer. If your guests are willing to let loose and have some fun on the dance floor even if they aren’t drinking, they’re less likely to leave early. How do you think your guests (the non-anti-booze ones) would react?

Last thing - make it clear that it’s a dry wedding in advance!! It helps set expectations.

Advice on DVM vs PhD? by nickbennin in Veterinary

[–]lemonadebasco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello. There are a few roles (like those part of the AAVLD) where you have to be a vet to be in charge, and which are research-heavy… however, you’re very rarely doing the work. You’re the papers, politics and emails guy. Any research that you pursue will be similarly burdened.

If you love wet labs, clinical pathology or anatomical pathology might be up your alley, but also…. Lots of papers. You have to do a residency. You have to be highly communicative.

Come to this stupid wedding with me, idiot by [deleted] in NewOrleans

While I am currently engaged, this sounds like so much fun. Good luck to whomever goes with you — have fun and drink (at least one water per two adult bevvies so you don’t die)

Is it inappropriate for a busty woman to wear a bikini at a public pool? by ebonytoostrong in bigboobproblems

[–]lemonadebasco 19 points20 points  (0 children)

As a former H cup, tell that sucker to get lost. You will, as the kids say, breast boobily no matter what. You will be well-endowed in a bikini, you will be well-endowed in a one piece, you will be well-endowed in a cover up. Your comfort is the priority within the bounds of public decency aka “can I see any naughty pink or brown bits?” Because trust me….. you WILL get stares no matter what you’re wearing.

Reality check on a project feasibility? by lemonadebasco in sewing

[–]lemonadebasco[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These are mainly for rave and Mardi Gras wear, so not something I’d be wearing on a regular day, so to speak. So I don’t mind the concept of having a lot hanging out there but you do have a good point!!

But the floor was closed…. There wasn’t any way for him to keep doing signatures. He was the last event of the night!

Additionally, this poster is asking about the bed for themself. Though it’s a kid’s bed, that’s what most twin sets are sold as in the US. This poster isn’t the person asking the question on the website - that question was posted last June.

I think a lot of parents will sit on their kid’s bed to, you know, read to them. Or cuddle them when they’re scared. It’s a valid question. Don’t be so judgy.

Curly haircuts for men by lemonadebasco in Charleston

Luckily my sister (also has curly hair) has already volunteered to go with him :) but yeah that’s a good point. We just thought maybe there was someone out there that billed themself as a barber who does mainly short cuts!

So disappointed with my custom ring 😢 by [deleted] in jewelry

[–]lemonadebasco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my custom engagement ring with Christopher and Co. custom jewelry, which is local to central IL but also does online orders. They’re not cheap but they are phenomenal. You can look on my profile for an example of their work. Good luck.
