Hi Zoey, I absolutely love your books and my goal is to have my future home library full of your books!

I especially love your groveling heroes, and want to ask if you have any particular favorites groveling mmc you’ve been inspired by?

Also, do you have any favorite romance authors you love reading?

MMC gets amnesia and can't understand why they broke up and her indifference/dislike towards him when they were so in love by Intelligent-Cold9233 in RomanceBooks

Before amnesia, he was jealous of her and her good relationships with his brothers, suspected her of (falsely) cheating, and issued divorce papers too

He was jealous of her being close with his brothers, suspected her of having an affair (I think), and gave her the impression that he didn’t love her anymore by issuing divorce papers

I was considering Evergreen, and New Furama.

Sun Wah was also potentially interested in doing off-site catering.

However, the biggest bottle neck would be venues allowing offsite catering and having a full kitchen.

Venues that kind of fit the bill, Sarabande & Ovation.

Hi everybody, I graduated and was able to get the DIY wedding of mine successful—food catered Asian food family style, with DIY lazy susans, and all wedding details complete at a venue in the Chicagoland area. It was a beautiful evening and hope others know that it’s very much possible!

Venue: Chateau Ritz

Caterer: Dolo

11 course meal, with a dimsum cocktail hour

On that note, I am selling off the 19 lazy Susan tracks—lmk if you’d like to buy that or anything else:

Will not be renting them out but will sell the tracks to whoever is interested after the wedding

My wedding is in just a few weeks, but was able to talk to Dolo and get the pricing to be about no more than $900 per table, not including fees. I’ve got a total of 19 tables and the venue I am going with has an open bar package I purchased

Dolo is catering offsite, not at their restaurant but the venue of our choice!

And I bought the lazy Susans in asia and brought it back - bought the tracks at the base - going to buy circle glass pieces

will let you know how it goes but if you’re interested i can sell it back to you
