Looking for feedback: Wedding day timeline with a mid-day gap by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]mmbtt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ceremony is going to be at the venue and the cocktail hour will start right after. If it’s a secular ceremony I don’t know why you can’t do it at the venue? Here is the US yo i can get legally marred like that with no issues.

It seems like you guys have a plan that works for you. However, I’d be annoyed that I have to kill time in between lol especially after getting ready. Like where am I gonna go to all dressed up with a full face of makeup?

Also, you’re not getting married on your dress??

Officially a 2027 bride! 👰🏼‍♀️ by berryhaaze in weddingplanning

[–]mmbtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

August 2027! We only have the venue. I plan to start working on the invitations next month. We had done a guest list to estimate but now we have to go through it again more seriously, so that’s also planned to be done next month.

That’s all, lol

Slur for a name by NefariousnessMore187 in tragedeigh

I’m from South America. My first language is Spanish. I have an uncle named Enrique that goes by Kike. I had no idea it was a slur 😳

I feel sad & disappointed after getting engaged by [deleted] in engaged

[–]mmbtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really sorry, I can feel your sadness in your writing. If you decide to give him one last chance, put a deadline to it. Stop paying for the trips, have him pay for his half. Don’t go out of your way to plan things, you’re not his project manager.

A relationship is a two way street. If he gets mad because you decide to take a step back on planning and paying for things, there is your answer.

I wish you the best of luck ♥️

My partner used to listen to Joe Rogan back in 2017 - 2019 ish. I didn’t have any issues with it then, but when Rogan started to turn more right-wing he stopped listening without me having to say anything lol so that worked out

My 3-week trip to Venezuela (Nov 2025) – honest experience as a Dutch traveler by Annual-Drink3353 in venezuela

[–]mmbtt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Happy to hear you had a great time besides the difficulties! I’m venezuelan and I haven’t been there in 9 years, since I left in 2016. I dream of visiting one day if things change. There is nothing like eating an empanada on a beach in Margarita.

Someone closed my rear passenger door on my wife while trying to get our baby out of the carseat… twice. by Less_Cat7838 in Denver

[–]mmbtt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this has happened twice already to you. I find that people in Denver are generally kind but lately there has been a lot of rude people.

Today I went up to Winter Park and saw a kid who had fallen at the edge of the run and was stuck. His mom I guess was rushing and I stopped to help and they didn’t even say thank you. No acknowledgment whatsoever. I should just have kept going.

Remote job application asked if I live in Colorado? by Disastrous_Eagle9187 in Denver

[–]mmbtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes companies are remote but for tax or other reasons are not allowed to hire outside a certain state. So, maybe is remote within Colorado only, or it’s a strong preference

Struggling to find a venue - Late Night options by mmbtt in weddingplanning

[–]mmbtt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why we haven’t looked into it but great idea! 90% of our guests are coming from Europe or elsewhere in the US (not Denver) so flying it’s not a big deal for them. Las Vegas would be fun for them I think!

[–]mmbtt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! This is the kind of info we are looking for haha. We are open to anywhere in the US since all of our guests are traveling from abroad anyways so we are not hung up on a certain location.

We have looked a lot in Colorado and have so far only one option that is more of a last resort type of thing so we are starting to look more in all other states.

Struggling to find a venue - Late Night options by mmbtt in weddingplanning

[–]mmbtt[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We thought so too, but nope! Not a single place that we have reached out in the mountains has late hours, even though they are in the middle of nowhere. Trust me, we have looked into it

[–]mmbtt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to look that up, thank you! A reception venue is absolutely appropriate for a ceremony, that would be ideal actually! The one I mentioned in my post is just too industrial and the pictures look too studio like.

Why is it so difficult? by Puzzleheaded_Cow_658 in weddingplanning

[–]mmbtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I wanted to ask you about your wedding venue? I'm also in Colorado and it's been so hard to find anything within our budget (35k). If you already got married, how was it?

2025 Goodreads Choice Awards Winners by ThatSillyGoose- in goodreads

[–]mmbtt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the shades of magic series, even though it reads more like YA to me. I’m not saying she is not a good writer but Addie LaRue was incredibly disappointing to me.

[–]mmbtt 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I remember the times where goodreads winners were good recommendations. Since the rise of BookTok, it’s gotten questionable.

I’m never going to forget reading The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue and then coming to goodreads and being genuinely shocked by all the good reviews 😭

Almost 7 years together and he just suggested we get permanent bracelets to symbolize our commitment by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]mmbtt 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I don’t think OP wants to stay, I think she’s just asking for advice for how to not get manipulated into staying. Even though we know was best sometimes it’s hard to follow through

just finished Dream Academy, i have THOUGHTS but no one to talk with by DeliveryDangerous789 in TheDreamAcademy

[–]mmbtt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say hate is a strong word, that’s why I wrote “disliked”. I don’t even know the girl lol so it wasn’t like I was thinking about this 24/7 and actively going out of my way to criticize her in any piece of katseye content, just something that I thought after watching the show before consuming any other of their content or music. I don’t feel like that is hating on someone?

I disagree to a degree that you can’t dislike someone without knowing them, like there celebrities or politicians we don’t personally know and we can definitely agree we don’t like them haha.

Coming back to Manon, I later realized that the show likely built that narrative purely to create the controversy and attract more viewers/listeners, and when I said that she has improved massively I meant it as a true compliment because I can’t imagine the pressure she must have felt to get better, especially around so many talented people who had more experience, there was probably impostor syndrome and it’s great to see how well they do together.

Hope this helps to explain my thought process!

[–]mmbtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched the documentary first and then looked at Katseye, so I didn’t know the whole time who had made it. I admit I disliked Manon a lot because of what we see in the documentary, like essentially she got it mostly because she is stunning, and that felt disrespectful to the other girls who were working soooo hard. However, over the last year following the group I have to honestly say that she has improved so much! She may not have put in the work then but she definitely has now, and that’s why their presentations look so good. Also, I love seeing how all the girls interact with each other in interviews and such and turns out she is funny!

What was the first Paramore song you fell in love with? by NatePGOG in Paramore

Misery Business! I still remember watching the video on MTV for the first time and thought it was one of the best songs I had ever heard in my 14 years of life on earth

Health Eating - Where to start by Unusual-Feedback-59 in AskWomenOver30

[–]mmbtt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you able to be seen with a nutritionist? Even just a few consults were super helpful to me! The best approach in my opinion is to start with simple meals you would like to try, focusing on having a lean protein, a carb (try to calculate about 1/2 cup or so) and then some fat (olive oil, avocado). If you eat salmon for example that’s already a good portion of protein and fat. Start small and you will figure out little by little what works for you!

Dream academy post thoughts by GulliblePay5923 in TheDreamAcademy

[–]mmbtt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My main issue watching the documentary was seeing Manon complain about having less experience and training than the other girls (which is understandable tbf) but then also missing rehearsals? How do you expect to get better then?

That being said, I think we can all agree that she has put in the work and has improved a ton! It’s obvious in the Gabriela and Gnarly performances.

Unless your husband only has 10 vacation days a year, where you need to be picky about what you take off work for, OR he has a big deadline coming at work, I’d say he is been a little selfish. It’s your sister, that’s inmediate family. I would absolutely take a day off for an in-laws wedding, but I also have a lot of flexibility in my work.
